Valdivieso

What Valdivieso does

Valdivieso Cocina con Alma is a privately held, single-location restaurant in central Madrid (Calle Fray Luis de León, 7, near Glorieta de Embajadores) founded in 2014 by chef Carlos Valdivieso, with Amine Fadily as co-chef. The restaurant operates under the legal entity El Triunfo 'Cocina con Alma' S.L. and delivers a creative, author-style Mediterranean cuisine rooted in Granada culinary traditions, emphasizing seasonal products and a curated Spanish wine program.

The business monetizes through three primary streams: à la carte and seasonal dine-in food and beverage sales, seasonal tasting menu experiences (Degustando el Otoño at EUR 45 and a wine-paired version at EUR 60) sold online as gift certificates via the restaurant's own e-commerce storefront, and private group/event bookings with customized menus. Recurring wine tasting events ('Catas de Vino') supplement beverage and experience revenue. Distribution is direct-to-consumer — walk-ins, online reservations via the Listae-integrated booking system, group bookings through a request form, and gift experiences processed through Stripe. Marketing runs through organic social (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter), a content blog and newsletter, Google Business, and TripAdvisor/Listae verified reviews.

The restaurant's technology stack is entirely composed of third-party SaaS tools: Listae for reservations and review verification, Mailchimp for email marketing, Google Analytics for web analytics, and Stripe for payment processing. There is no proprietary technology platform. The restaurant has earned a 'Solete' distinction from the Guía Repsol and carries a 4.8/5 average across 954 verified reviews (service 4.9/5, food 4.8/5). It operates lunch and dinner most days except Mondays, with a scheduled seasonal closure from 19 July to 14 August 2026.
