If you want a taste of Madrid’s best Almadraba tuna then head to DeAtún in the Chamberí district.
DeAtún is widely known for serving the best Almadraba tuna in the Spanish capital – but – what exactly is Almadraba tuna? The word ‘Almadraba’ comes from Arabic and literally translates to ‘a place to strike’. Specifically, it refers to the technique of catching Atlantic Bluefish Tuna as they cross between the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. At DeAtún you can try many different variations of tuna as well as many other famous Spanish seafood dishes - such as the Andalusian tortillita de camarones (Shrip Omelettes).
