If you want a romantic dinner in Madrid, Puerto Noble serves Alicante-style rice dishes for two in the pan, with no time limit at the table. You can book Retiro near Atocha with terrace, or Barrio de Salamanca near Manuel Becerra.
At Puerto Noble, the arroces are the dish many visitors mean when they search for paella. They are Alicante-style rice dishes, made to order in 20 to 25 minutes and served in the paellera to share.
The price is per person, with a minimum of 2 people. Rice dishes range from 18 € to 32 € per person at Retiro and Barrio de Salamanca. You can see more on the rice dishes in Madrid page.
If you want to keep it simple, you can share a starter and then order one rice dish for two. The best seller is Senyoret at 20 € per person: a seafood rice with peeled shellfish and fish without bones, so it is easy to eat.
Other options include Mar Negro, Verde, Del Mar, Toro, Tradicional, Huerta de Ana, Ibérico confitado, Pez, Pulpo y gambón, Secreto de José, Mr Madurga, Massimo Capricho and Port Leonardo. Starters include croquetas de jamón ibérico, berenjenas crujientes con miel de caña, calamares a la andaluza, gambas al ajillo and zamburiñas.
If you prefer a set option, there is also a 50 € tasting menu per person, minimum 2 people. It includes 2 croquetas de jamón ibérico, 2 flores de alcachofa, 6 zamburiñas, one ensalada César to share, one rice dish to choose, and 2 desserts. House wine is +10 € only with the tasting menu.
For many couples, the best part of dinner is not having to hurry. At Puerto Noble, there are no shifts and no time limit at the table.
That makes it easy to order a starter, wait for the rice dish made to order, and finish with dessert without watching the clock. Payment can be made by card, ticket restaurant or cash.
