El Disparate

Updated August 2023

The Corner House boutique hotel by Sandra Rodríguez and Nacho Dargallo, of El Gallinero de Sandra fame, opened in 2016 after having been conceived and realised within a nine month period (“just like a baby!” says Nacho proudly). The whole building was completely renovated for its new use, and that includes the El Disparate restaurant (disparate means folly or madness in Spanish). The décor is “rustic chic” with lots of light and space and large windows on two sides, and an open kitchen and white tile behind the bar. The interior seating is arranged around a series of tall wooden tables and some low tables which extend into the hotel reception area. And being on the Alameda it naturally has a lovely spacious terrace out front to sit and watch the world go by. The small rooftop bar is open evenings during spring and summer and is one of the prettiest in the city.

Since Sandra and Nacho closed their beloved Gallinero de Sandra in late 2022, the menu at El Disparate has melded with some Gallinero favourites and a nicely balanced selection of traditional and fusion dishes.  I think this also gives them a bit more freedom with their seasonal items. The huevos estrellaos (fried eggs, potatoes, caramalised onions, smoked paprika) and the house croquetas are must-haves. We also loved the monkfish  with nécora and artichoke sauce (special of the day) and the tender cola de toro (oxtail on truffled parmentier with snow peas. Recently a seasonal dish of artichoke carpaccio was officially my favourite dish of the summer. You really can’t go wrong here. Great service and an excellent wine list too.
