Las Bravas

Las Bravas is a tapas restaurant in Madrid's Huertas district, specializing in Spanish dishes with a focus on their signature potato preparation topped with spicy sauce. The restaurant operates two separate locations in central Madrid, each offering the same traditional menu and approach.

The restaurant emerged decades ago as a casual spot for traditional Spanish food in Madrid's dining culture. It has grown into an established name in the city, known for maintaining its original recipes and approach to simple, flavorful cooking.

The place is known for serving tapas from different Spanish regions, including Galician octopus and fried squid, showcasing how various parts of the country approach their cooking. Guests experience the diversity of traditional Spanish cuisine through each dish on the menu.

Come during off-peak hours if you prefer a quieter experience, as the place fills up quickly with both locals and visitors during peak times. The seating is close together, which creates a lively, informal atmosphere that visitors should expect when dining here.

The restaurant holds a patent for its spicy sauce recipe, which customers can purchase separately to bring home and use on their own dishes. This means visitors can recreate the taste at home long after their visit ends.
