The meat
Single-source chicken and beef, marinated 24-48 h in a 14-spice blend. Slow vertical cooking. Knife-cut, into the pita, in front of you.
Real shawarma the way it should be: aged meat, slow vertical fire, pita baked every morning. Nothing more, nothing less.

We grew up eating kebab at 2 AM. We defend it. But shawarma — real Levantine shawarma — deserves a different conversation. Different meat, different bread, different spices, different respect.
De Pita Madre is not gourmet kebab. It is the honest question of what happens if you treat shawarma with the same seriousness a steakhouse treats prime rib. The answer lives in every pita that leaves our oven.
Single-source chicken and beef, marinated 24-48 h in a 14-spice blend. Slow vertical cooking. Knife-cut, into the pita, in front of you.
Our own sourdough. Selected flours. Baked every morning in-house. Warm, fluffy inside, lightly toasted outside. No industrial shortcuts.
Market produce, in-house hummus, pure tahini, our own sauces. House pickles. Every topping with a reason. Zero anonymous bottled sauces.
A short menu is a confident menu. If it is on, we do it well. If we are not sure, it is not on.
Aged beef, slow-cooked onion, hummus, tahini, pickles.
24h-marinated chicken, live lettuce, tomato, house sauce.
Falafel fried hourly, tahini, fresh herbs, pomegranate.
Smoked eggplant, labneh, dukkah, pomegranate.
Half chicken, half beef. For the honestly undecided.
We also serve mezze: hummus, baba ghanoush, tabbouleh and za'atar fries.
A small, honest space: open bar, visible fire, tables to stay or pita to go. Two minutes from Museo Reina Sofía and Cine Doré.
Get directionsWe obsess over packaging the way we obsess over the kitchen. Warm pita, separated toppings, tahini where it belongs. Like ordering at the counter.
Soon: direct order from this site (zero commission).
