Even word perfect can’t describe the quality of food you experience, order Cod fish and olives with vermut first, then you keep loving it and ordering. Good prices, nice smiles of staff and management, great food!

We were enthusiastic to try this restaurant, the lunch queue was quite long so went across the road for a vermouth and fryed cod tapa. Returned a few days later for dinner and enjoyed the fryed cod again, along with grilled pimientos, meatballs in Spanish sauce, sardines on toast. We thoroughly enjoyed our food, the best we had during our month long trip in Spain.

This is the original (and best!) Casa Revuelta, an old fashion tapas bar with bar tables (no chairs) in a great Madrid neighborhood. This is THE place to go in Madrid for the best fried cod. The menu is simple: bacalao, delicious moist & fresh cod fried in the most amazing batter. Order several bacalao, some anchovies with olives & peppers and some beer. Nothing better. Highly recommended!

This is an iconic Madrid restaurant. They are most famous for the bacalao - salted cod breaded and fried. We had some this time, and the gildas - spicy peppers, olives, anchovy. Everything is great there. I didn’t look at lower reviews, but the place is very crowded and busy and I’m sure that’s a turnoff for some. That’s true because it’s all so good.

Love all the dishes we ordered! Highly recommended! We seated at the al fresco area 👍🫶🏻

The fried bacalao fish was to die for! Such an authentic experience, standing at the bar and ordering beer and tapas, would definitely recommend!

I get the hype of these salt cod pieces. Although it may seem simple, fried fish in batter, but the fish is marinated and salted so well, you honestly don’t need any sauce to pair it with. The croquettes were also very gooey and nice.

You are here for the bacalao. It's cheap and fresh and delicious. The torreznos are even cheaper and also good (deep fried, not slow roasted, but what do you want for 3€?). The bar menu is tiny. Grab a bacalao as a snack with a drink and continue your bar hopping.

Casa Revuelta is a gem in Madrid’s tapas scene. There’s always a line—and for good reason. The bacalao here is hands down the best I’ve had; I went back for 3-4 pieces on my first visit alone. The Gildas are phenomenal too, easily among the best in the city, and the torreznos have this light, crispy texture with a fried chicken-like flavor that pairs perfectly with drinks. The menu is small, focused, and incredibly well executed. Prices are very reasonable, and the whole setup—standing around a small table, sharing tapas and drinks with friends—is part of the charm. No frills, just great food and a system that works beautifully. Absolutely loved it.

Super juicy and tender fried cod in a light and crispy batter served piping hot. Oh my goodness, what a treat! Also their fried pimentones are delish!! Sit at the bar, order a caña, and enjoy all the tapas or raciones of typical Spanish food. Great ambience.

Popular as a Madrid foodie recommendation…it doesn’t disappoint. The cod is crispy flakey salty goodness that is perfectly paired with a vermouth. The vibe is awesome. A must visit.

the frituras de bacalao are worth the visit alone. the torta de gambas was a great surprise and the batatas bravas were some of the better ones i had during my short visit. i would love to come back here and try more things, or just get. bunch of the frituras and eat them all. so good!!😊

🚨Foodie Alert Friends recommended and they were right : uncontested King of the Cod in Madrid, Casa Revuelta is one of those timeless restaurant that have always been there and will always be there. One of those beloved single-specialty tapas restaurant, they deliver the bacalao in fine form & taste. Everything is about the batter and Revuelta has built their cathedral on this batter. It is wonderful. I really enjoyed the taste of the cod, no ammonia taste, authentic fresh. Service was awesome, super friendly server that loves their job and have done their job, also, forever. One of the best of 2024, very smooth, friendly and efficient, a wonder to see actually. Bring together pleasant service, above-grade food and a cold, fresh glass of beer and this is a stop you won’t forget in Madrid. One of our favorite stops in Madrid ❤️ P.S.: please leave a ❤️if you found this review useful in selecting your choices, thank you 🙏

We started with vermouth which I had never had. It was so good! I loved the light herbed flavor. The salted cod was amazing! The pork cracklings were also a tasty crunchy treat! We ended with the broken eggs over potatoes and Padron peppers! Dreamy goodness! Everything was very delicious and I will definitely be back! M from Texas ⭐️

Standing room only! Fast service, big lines, fresh food, crisp beers!!!! There’s usually a wait, but it moves quickly. Space is limited but thanks to the fast service, you’re not waiting long. My son mentioned it as the best fried fish he’s ever had. Servings weren’t huge but crisp, juicy, and tender. Tapas version of a seafood helping from New England. We had some croquets and fried pork that were all amazing as well. Rich salty and savory. Everything hit the mark. Ordered seconds on most everything due to sizes. We were hungry, and it was perfect.

Absolutely amazing! You may overlook it because it’s in a very touristy area, but don’t think it’s a tourist trap! The artichokes are to die for, the fried cod is the best you will find in Madrid and the service is simply spectacular - the ladies serving at the tables have hundreds of people to serve and manage to remain super kind, professional and exceptionally fast! Don’t forget to order postre (dessert) and to ask for cheesecake, it’s absolutely heavenly!

Típico bar de Madrid cuyo plato principal es el bacalao rebozado. A mi personalmente me gustaron más las croquetas de jamón. La carta es muy corta, solo tienen 4 cosas, con lo que lo recomiendo para ir a tomar una caña y probar el bacalao y poco más. Pero no es para comer o cenar. El servicio muy majo y atento.

Buen trato, excelente la tapa de bacalao y inmejorable la caña de cerveza. Lastima que lo que fuera una taberna de barrio se convierta en una atracción turística. .

Tasca tradicional, donde todo está muy rico, aunque tampoco delicioso. Destaco el bacalao. En mi opinión, este es mejor que el de otro famoso lugar, no muy lejano. La cerveza, muy rica, muy fresca y muy bien tirada.

Great and iconic restaurant in Madrid to experience all time classics. The service is fast and friendly and in busy times there is always a short wait but it’s worth it. The bacalao is out of this world, fluffy, light and deep fried to perfection. I would give 5 stars but the price is just too expensive for one piece of bacalao regardless of how good it is.

4/5 Nice tapas with reasonable price. A lot of local people were eating and drinking here. Just order the food on the small blackboard. Simple but will not make any mistakes. The atmosphere was okay, but a bit disorganized.

Todo lo que comimos estaba bueno, la miel de caña deberían de poner que es melaza, la miel es mielb y lo que echan en la berenjena pues no y encima los chorrean bien por la berenjena por lo que le quita mucho sabor lógicamente. Todo a tope y el aforo más de lo que puede permitirse el local pero bueno es lo que hay al ser una zona muy turística. El personal muy atento y rápido.

He ido por primera vez a este establecimiento y he leído opiniones anteriores. Debo decir que he probado sólo el bacalao y estaba muy bueno. Ahora, 7€ una caña y un trozo de bacalao me parece excesivo por mucha calidad que tenga. Si fríen en aceite de oliva que efectivamente subió aunque ha vuelto a bajar y más comprando la materia prima a granel y a precio de hostelería...Lamentablemente no volveré a ir porque me parece un robo 5.10€ un trozo de bacalao sin ánimo de ofender pero es la realidad.

Llegué a este lugar por alguna recomendación en línea, pero sinceramente no regreso. Creo que la comida tiene buen sazón, lo que pudo haber pasado es que con tanta gente, cocina ya solo quería surtir órdenes sin importar calidad. La materia prima de los platillos es muy fresca, el Bacalao, muy rico pero ensopado en aceite, las croquetas me llegaron crudas y la fritura de puerco muy dura, el amigo peruano de la entrada creo que puede mejorar su atención, posiblemente seria una buena elección en fechas que no sean de alta afluencia turística.

Lo veo un poco elevado el pincho de bacalao. Los pinchos deberían de estar más reducidos no sé opinad vosotros. Pero la croqueta buena y cremosa y el bacalao crujiente

Buena comida en lugar pequeño para estar poco tiempo, pincho de bacalao muy bueno, pero 5,10€?, algo pasa en la restauración en Madrid. Pagar 18€ por 2 cañas, 2 croquetas y 2 pinchos de bacalao en una mesa pequeña, de pie y sin sitio para moverse es mucha tela.

Nothing special. The cod was good. And the beer was in a very small glass. €7 is a lot, even if the cod is an expensive fish, the beer for €2.1 is a rip off. You can just go for the “Madrid experience” but don’t expect much.

Conozco este sitio desde hace años, pero hacía como un año que no venía y esta vez me ha decepcionado mucho. El bacalao, especialidad de la casa, me ha parecido una porción muy pequeña y muy aceitosa, nada que ver con lo que recordaba. Si encima te cobran 5,10 € por esa porción de bacalao, de pie y en la barra, ya me parece abusivo, por más que el bar esté en pleno meollo turístico. Al menos fui en un día tranquilo y no tuve que esperar ni aguantar incomodidades, y el servicio fue rápido y eficiente. Una pena porque no creo que vuelva ni recomiende ya este sitio a la gente de fuera.

La camarera del jueves del turno tarde noche muy maleducada,ya que después del buen trato de su compañero reclamamos una consumición que no nos llegaba ycon gritos y malos gestos no soluciono la situación empeorando el ambiente quedandose los demos clientes alucinados de la situacion.Nosotros nos dirigimos a ella con educacion . El encargado no supo afrontar la situación y pedimos la hoja de reclamaciones de la comunidad de Madrid. No entiendo que con el paro que hay no haya personal más cualificado para atender al público en un sitio tan emblemático, del que somo clientes.

Mala experiencia por la mala atención de alguna de la empleadas del local, única que atiende de forma extraordinaria es una de nombre Franchesca, bravo por ella, el resto regular y una persona llamada Francis muy mal, lo único que merece la pena el bacalao que estaba bueno, el resto, callos, sosos y con la salsa Aguada y la ensaladilla, muy sosa y sin sabor, mal, no lo recomendaremos. La verdad es que una persona que atienda mal arruina un día que era especial, nuestro aniversario.
