Madrid is home to an increasing number of excellent Asian restaurants, from Thai and Korean to Spain’s first Michelin-starred sushi restaurant. Discover some of the best Asian dining establishments to explore the next time you’re in the capital of Spain.

Tuk Tuk


This cool local chain specialises in Asian street food, and it was inspired by its two owners’ travels across Asia. There is a wide range of dishes, spanning many different Asian cuisines, from Indonesian Rendang, a spicy beef dish, to Malaysian satay and its ‘Sexy Sio Bao’ – a Chinese bao steamed bun filled with pulled pork. The restaurant also delivers if you fancy a tasty takeaway.

Kabuki Wellington

If you’re looking for an exclusive dining option in Madrid, then Kabuki Wellington is hard to beat. This stylish Japanese restaurant, in the five-star Wellington Hotel, was the first one of its kind in Spain to earn a Michelin star. Watch Chef Ricardo Sanz and his team prepare sushi and sashimi in the open kitchen. Famous dishes include the quail egg sushi with white truffle cream and the Kobe mini burger.

Mashita

This little Korean-Japanese restaurant just off Gran Vía, right in the heart of Madrid, is a family-run joint with good quality food for a decent price. Try the restaurant’s Korean dishes such as japchae, sweet and savoury stir-fried glass noodles, and bulgogi, which means ‘fire meat’ and consists of thinly cut slices of barbecued beef or pork. The décor is trendy, with graffiti-strewn walls.
