| Last reviewed: Jun 2026 Opened in 1839 and still on the same Carrera de San Jerónimo corner, Lhardy is Madrid's first luxury restaurant: a downstairs shop for consommé and pastries and gilded period dining rooms upstairs. Now run by the Pescaderías Coruñesas group, it remains a one-of-a-kind cocido pilgrimage.
