Style / Ambiance: Viridiana takes its name from a legendary Luis Buñuel film that was banned in Spain for sixteen years during Franco’s regime. Owned by Chef Abraham Garcia, the restaurant serves hearty, flavorful cuisine, including Spanish classics such as gazpacho with Sardinian bread, and fillet of beef with chili sauce.
You can try another Spanish delicacy here; olive oil. Spain is the world’s largest olive oil producer and Viridiana offers many different types, so ask to test before you buy as, like wine, varieties of oil can be distinguished by their color, flavor and smell. Located between Paseo del Prado and Retiro Park, Viridiana is the ideal place to replenish after a day exploring Madrid’s cultural delights. Viridiana’s catering service provides the same tantalizing cuisine for private dining events. To book this service contact Martin Omar at catering@restauranteviridiana.com.
