Through the creativity of renowned chefs, pasta has long ceased to be an everyday dish to become an authentic gastronomic work both through the most traditional Italian trattorias and the most exclusive restaurants in the capital.
We present a selection of some of the best restaurants specialized in pasta in Madrid for you to celebrate its day in the best possible way.
NOI
Located in the Salamanca neighborhood, Noi is a jewel of Italian haute cuisine directed by the talented chef Gianni Pinto. Pasta here is treated with the same delicacy as a chef would treat caviar or foie gras. The menu offers dishes such as spaghettoni alla chitarra with sea urchin and bottarga, which combine flavors of the sea with handmade pasta. The ravioli stuffed with ossobuco with its reduced bottom also stand out, a bite that shows the perfect integration of tradition and avant-garde in each dish.

Don Giovanni
Chef Andrea Tumbarello has turned Don Giovanni into an undisputed benchmark of Italian haute cuisine in Madrid. His dedication and passion for truffles are reflected in many of his dishes, such as tagliolini al tartufo nero and the famous carbonara with white truffle. Here, each pasta dish is a tribute to seasonal ingredients and Italian savoir-faire. The experience is complemented by a carefully selected Italian wine list with which to pair each creation.

In honor of her second last name, the chef fuses tradition with innovation in the ‘Ravioli Panichelli’, a ravioli filled with a delicious blend of flavored pumpkin, toasted walnuts, stracciatella di Puglia, crispy guanciale and fresh basil.
