Best vegan in Madrid - Edit
I already visited the other Shlen restaurant they have close to Goya, I heard about the new restaurant opening in Cuatro Caminos and I was told by the owners there will be new dishes that they don't have at their first restaurant, and as always, the food is spectacular!
Read moreI tried the "no butter no chicken" and the "minced beef" samosas—they're delicious!
I also tried the classic and super original "flavor bombs" and the baos—my favorite dish!
The owners, Sheetal and Lennon, take care of every detail and you can see it in every dish 🩷
I'll be back soon and ready to continue to try the rest of the menu!
Pros: Amazing flavors, A wide variety of options , Great desserts

Hemos venido un viernes noche y, a pesar de que el restaurante estaba lleno y no habíamos reservado nos atendieron con muchísima amabilidad y pudimos cenar una comida exquisita, desde las bolas de sabor hasta los noodles cremosos. Ha sido toda una experiencia que confío en repetir!!!

10/10 experience - Edit
I would really recommend shlen to anyone visiting or living in Madrid, not just vegans. The staff were very helpful and friendly, our server Diane was especially helpful and the food was incredible. I would highly recommend the leek and soy meat gyozas, the peking duck and the biscoff cheesecake, all were so tasty. Will definitely be returning the next time I’m in Madrid. ⭐️

Delicious - Edit
So much diversity of flavour, it tastes fantastic. The savory meals are some of the best meals I’ve ever had and I highly recommend trying out the tasting menu. The ambience and the staff were also lovely.

Friendly place - Edit
This was a lovely place. The food was fantastic. I had the potato dosa with a rose milk to drink, both of which I can certainly recommend. Our server, Simon, was very hospitable. He even gave us a free sample of the flavour bomb starter as he was sad that we hadn't ordered it. I can certainly see why he recommends it.

Caro, raciones pequeñas - Edit
Lo mejor del restaurante es la atención de Simón. A eso le doy un 10. Sin embargo a la comida le doy mucha menos puntuación. Las raciones son pequeñas y todo es muy caro. Una cerveza más de 5€. El tiramisú es un vaso minúsculo 7€. La comida está bien aunque no para repetir.

Incredible experience - Edit
An incredible experience at Shlen! It's undoubtedly an excellent vegan restaurant in Madrid. We came with a friend who usually eats meat, and he was blown away; the Peking duck and the Shlen bao buns are spectacular and have a perfect flavor and texture.
Read moreWhat really sets it apart is its selection of craft beers. It's not common to find a vegan place with such a carefully curated selection. We tried the Doskiwis, Garage, and Espiga beers, and they were all delicious. If you're looking for delicious food and great craft beer, this is the place. Highly recommended!

What a hidden blast! - Edit
What an amazing concept - the interior is beautfiul and the music was mostly great. Our waiter/Manager/Chef de pastry was just such a sweetheart and talented person. The food was great, and even unforgettable, how they veganized Dishes and balanced tastes just amazed us all. Some of the tastes are still lingering in my mouth. It was auch a pleasure, especially the "taste Bomb", the "Bao bun", "gyoza with leaks and szechuan oil" and finally the Dessert made by the master an amazing Tiramisu and "gyoza de manzanas" which reminds you of German Apfelstrudel. What a blast IT was!!!!

Our fifth visit. Every time is a new surprise. Just FABULOUS food and impeccable service. Dishes to not miss? The flavor bombs, the no butter no chicken, pato pekin, boa Shlen, the sushi… never had a dish we didn’t like. Really spectacular food made with love and care. One of the best in Madrid, hands down!
