La Cayetana opened this sister bar to their already successful spot in Javier Lasso de la Vega in early 2021 and it’s been going strong ever since. Jesús Fernández Gil (chef at the original La Cayetana) runs this location as co-owner with Luís Valpuesta. It’s on a corner spot with large windows letting in lots of natural light and it also has a side walk terrace. The menu is kept short with daily specials available, featuring Andalusian classics, and a well thought out wine list with lots of options available by the glass. And of course with Jesús at the helm, service is both professional and friendly.

The menu at La Cayetana is basically divided into cold dishes, hot dishes (including fab fritos) and a selection of top notch charcuterie and conserves. Try their famous made-to-order tortilla de patatas, and the puntillitas (tiny squid) topped with a perfectly fried egg and truffle sauce.  Check the daily specials and if they happen to have boquerones al limón, do not hesitate. On our most recent visit the specials included a selection of Almadraba tuna dishes – we had the fried marinated ribs and were blown away. You really can’t go wrong here.

Opened in the spring of 2019, La Cayetana Bistó Andalú takes us back to simpler times (and menus). The bar is cosy, with comfy low tables in the main dining area and a few more seats in front of the bar. Owner and chef Luis Valpuesta has elevated Andalusian classics with close attention to quality and presentation. I’ve known Luis since he started with Petit Comité many years ago, and so I knew the first time I visited that the service would be impeccable. There seems to be a bit of a trend away from the whole “gastrobar” scene, with new places embracing the traditional but then taking things up a few notches without losing the integrity of the dishes. It’s a trend I welcome wholeheartedly.

The menu  is basically divided into cold dishes, hot dishes (including fab fritos) and a selection of top notch charcuterie and conserves. The “matrimonio” here is my favourite in the city, a boquerón and anchoa with alboronia and light alioli on toasted tramezzini is next level deliciousness. Also try their famous made-to-order tortilla de patatas, and the whole fried squid. Check the daily specials and if they happen to have boquerones al limón, do not hesitate. So crispy light and flavourful. And save room for dessert – the cheese cake is excellent. There’s a very good wine list with plenty of options by the glass. Reservations recommended.
