La Lonja Del Mar Menu

After exploring the menu at La Lonja Del Mar, I came away impressed by the restaurant’s strong focus on premium seafood and carefully crafted Spanish cuisine. The selection of marisco stands out immediately, with fresh Castropol oysters, fine Galicia clams, and prized red prawns from Huelva and Santa Pola setting a high standard. For starters, the creative combinations add plenty of character, especially the Huevo Benedictine “La Lonja” with toro tuna belly, the roasted peppers stuffed with prawns and pig’s trotters, and the refreshing monkfish salad with La Vera paprika, Granny Smith apple, mango, and salmon roe. Meanwhile, the hamachi carpaccio with arugula and Parmesan brings a lighter and elegant touch.

The main courses continue this quality-driven approach. Seafood lovers will appreciate the Bay of Biscay squid served in “corals,” the pan-seared hake loin paired with grapes and spring onions, and the monkfish loin with seasonal mushrooms. On the other hand, meat dishes such as oxtail with sweet potato purée, duck confit cannelloni with Fuji apple béchamel, and the special “La Lonja” beef tenderloin offer satisfying alternatives. To complete the experience, the Experiencia La Lonja tasting selection showcases highlights including champagne rock mussels, Jerez-style carabineros, autumn salad with goat cheese, stuffed roasted peppers, and red tuna carpaccio. Overall, the menu feels refined, balanced, and memorable, making it an excellent choice for anyone seeking high-quality seafood and classic Spanish flavors in the heart of Madrid.
