Pez Tortilla

MadridSpain
Calle del Pez
Recommended by Madrid Secreto and 4 other food critics.
"Going to Pez Tortilla and leaving without eating their croquettes is, I don't know, like going to Seville and not seeing the Giralda. Think boletus and truffle. The croquettes of Pez Tortilla are a scandalous."

Dantxari

MadridSpain
C. de Ventura Rodríguez 8
Recommended by El Mundo Metrópoli and 4 other food critics.
"If your thing is fish croquettes, make sure you drop by this Basque restaurant run by brothers Jesús and Manuel Medina. Specialists in the art of the spoon and seafood, their Croquetas de bacalao, with sheep's milk and a very delicate béchamel sauce, are a must in the capital."
