But don’t worry, we’ve done the legwork for you. Here are the top restaurants where you can reserve a table and celebrate your birthday in style:

Mamaquilla

Inspired by the colonial homes of Cartagena, this restaurant offers a vibrant atmosphere with large tables facing the bar and lively Caribbean tunes starting at 21:30.

Located at José Abascal 61, Mamaquilla is one of Madrid’s top spots for Latin American cuisine, with a buzzing vibe and exceptional service. The food quality is their top priority, making every penny worth it.

Bar Trafalgar

A hot spot in the Chamberi district on Alburquerque Street 14, Bar Trafalgar is the kind of place you’ll want to revisit time and again.

Their menu may be small, but every dish is outstanding. The best time to visit is at night when the warm red lighting creates a cozy, romantic ambiance, perfect for enjoying their cocktails and wines.

Our dish recommendation? The smoked ham bikini and red tuna belly.

Circolo Popolare

Part of the Big Mamma family, this restaurant is a must-visit. If you’re familiar with Belmondo and Villa Capri, you’ll know what to expect.

This massive, two-story restaurant has unique decor, a welcoming vibe, and a team dedicated to ensuring a fun and lively experience that transports you straight to the heart of Italy.

After indulging in their delicious dishes, save room for their pistachio tiramisu—trust us, you won’t regret it.

Currently one of Madrid’s hottest dining spots, so popular that you’ll need to book well in advance, especially for weekend birthdays.

Located on Velázquez Street 96, this restaurant isn’t cheap, with prices ranging between 50 and 70 euros, but it’s worth every euro.  The food is outstanding, the service impeccable, and after the cake, you can unwind with one of their expertly crafted cocktails.

BiBo

Born from the creative mind of chef Dani García, BiBo mixes Andalusian roots with global influences to create a menu that’s truly unique.

Located on Paseo de la Castellana, you can reserve a private room decorated with champagne bottles for up to 22 people and enjoy a set menu designed for groups.

And if there’s no table available, don’t worry! Dani García has other fantastic spots in the city like Lobito de Mar and Leña, each offering private dining spaces.
