Guests are treated to a feast for the senses, where each dish tells a story of the region's rich agricultural heritage.

The menu at Montia is a celebration of the region's bounty, featuring two exquisite tasting menus that change with the seasons. One standout dish is the **deconstructed egg with champignon demi-glaze and trout roe**, a delicate balance of flavors that showcases the chef's artistry.

I want to keep this place secret.. but it's too good. Food 10/10, pairings 10/10, service 10/10. It's a crime they don't have at least a 2. Second time here, can't wait for the third!

Food was very experimental. I loved that they used ingredients from the local area or their own garden. It might be a bit difficult to get a proper explanation about the food if you don’t speak Castellano.

I recommend people to go there for dinner. For lunch, it might be a bit long to eat all the foods that they provide, although they are delicious.

Fantastic fine dining restaurant serving a tasting menu based on local products and natural wines pairing . Held one michelin start before the closure in 2021  due to a fire in the previous location. Distinction that for sure will recover shortly.
Amazing New location with a open kitchen and a glass-covered terrace viewing a garden when they grow plants and herbs used for cooking

Montia, run by chef Dani Ochoa, offers a "naturalistic" take on haute cuisine and has had a Michelin star since 2014. They offer two tasting menus: a long one (€100) and an extra long one (€115). The latter adds two tripe dishes, which are delicious and supposedly the best in the Madrid area. Many of the ingredients are seasonal and locally sourced, so the specific dishes change regularly. In our case, there was a strong presence of mushrooms, even in the desserts. Some elaborations felt more refined than usual for a one-star restaurant, which may suggest they're going for the second star. My favorites were the deconstructed egg with a champignon demi-glaze and trout roe as well as the beetroot dessert with crunchy kale. The interior is beautiful and excudes a rustic charm, with clay walls and lots of wood, a chimney in the interior dining room and two massive trees on the glass-covered terrace, where we had the pleasure to spend the 3+ hours of our lunch. A great experience.

Beautiful restaurant, with a cozy and amazing garden, everything very rustic and artisanal with an impeccable presentation, great service, tasty and beautiful food, and a very interesting selection of wines …they offer a really good gastronomic experience … although, I think  there is a room to improve the desserts … in general, a beautiful experience !
