Elemental Bistró was a small restaurant located in the heart of Madrid, Malasaña. The restaurant closed in 2020 due to the COVID 19 pandemic. The gastronomy offered by the restaurant was a Franco-Spanish fusion because its owner, Sergio Sánchez, had lived in Paris for a few years.

The restaurant had two rooms: the main one that gives direct access to the street and a more intimate room in the semi-basement that allowed it to be reserved for private celebrations. The main floor had service for 16 diners, a bar counter, space for crockery and service, and a kitchen. On the lower floor, there was also access to the private services of the restaurant and the toilets.

Main color of this neo-French/neo-Madrid style is white, this decision comes from the combination with the wooden furniture, the colors of the tiles in a neutral style and earth colors and, above all, to generate contrasts with crockery and dishes in such a way that gastronomy filled the space with color. In this way, the neutral setting complemented and made its main protagonist shine: gastronomy. As if it were a movie... because the other fundamental line in the creation of the restaurant was the seventh art. Elemental has white moldings on its walls in the purest French style, mirrors that hung from them to give an appearance of spaciousness and allow you to observe every detail.
