    This restaurant was recommended by several locals, so I had high expectations, but was pretty disappointed with my experience. We came here in a large group and none of the dishes the group got was appetizing. The quality was diner-like food in the U.S., but at expensive prices. The tomato and garlic bread tasted stale (1 star off). The fries and eggs were not seasoned and were a sloppy mess (1 star off); one person commented that it was like food for toddlers. The manchego cheese was eatable. The suckling pig was tender, but it was like pulled pork that one can easily make in a Crock Pot (1 star off). The waitstaff recommended rice pudding for dessert. I enjoyed the bruleed top, but the pudding underneath was very watery, almost with soup-like consistency (1 star off). Overall, our meal ended up being 70 euros per person. I have definitely had better meals in Madrid for less than that. The restaurant was packed, so I have no idea what the hype is about...unless they all like toddler food?

    Casa lucio has great quality food and exceptional service. Also fantastic wine list .

    La Latina was bustling with energy on Friday night. There were a ton of restaurants and bars all packed so it was hard to find a table. We waited almost 1.5 hours for a seat at the bar here. Service was great. We got olives and some anchovies with our drink order. We tried green beans with garlic, Spanish omelette, and croquettes for appetizers followed by lamb chops and suckling pig. Everything was really good. The server even gave us a complimentary glass of cava at the end of the meal.

    It was good Spanish food, not great Spanish food. They messed up my order as well. It was very busy with many families coming and going.

    Recommend by a friend who visited Madrid often, we were able to booked a last minute dinner at this very popular restaurant. They open at 8:30PM and people WITH reservations were already lining up at the front door. A very traditional looking Spanish restaurant with very friendly staff. The food was rather good especially the egg omelette. We tried their roasted suckling pig and found it to be just as good as Casa Botin. Their clam dish was very tasty and one can eat a whole dinner with just the bread dipping in the clam sauce. 3 course Dinner with 3 drinks for two was under $90. Not bad at all. Their menu was rather extensive so one could comeback to try their other dishes.

    For a good meal in a nostalgic atmosphere, you'll want to check out Casa Lucio. It came recommended by a local, so we headed over. We did not make reservations and got super lucky on a random weekday, with three seats at the bar. The decor is fitting for the ambiance they are trying to convey. Upscale casual. White table cloths and linens, without the stuffy vibe. On a rainy Spring day, the white bean stew was just perfect. Creamy, without being heavy. The mixed vegetables were fine. Nothing fancy and I would maybe not order it again, but after days of jamón y queso, my body needed a vegetable. Lastly, we had the beef brisket stew. Flavorful and well prepared.

    A friend that lives in Madrid recommended this place. I'm a huge fan of "huevos rotos" and he told me that here I would find one of the best if not 'THE BEST' in town. Of course I had to try them, so last time I went to Madrid I pay them a visit. Is located in "La Latina" the hipster/cool neighborhood. It could be hard to get a table specially for big groups, so I suggest to book in advance. I didn't had a reservation so I got seated at the bar as a walk-in. The place felt like an old classic Spanish restaurant that has the same employees since it opened many years ago. I'm saying that in a good way. I started talking to the server behind the bar and he told me some interesting stories about the history of the place and the owner LUCIO! He's been working there for more than 20 years. I ordered a 'tinto de verano' a cold, wine-based drink popular in Spain and the famous "huevos rotos". The egg was perfectly made, runny with some crunchy corners, easy to break on top of the fries. Delicious. It felt like an authentic home made meal. The lady seating next to me ordered the sucking pig, which is also a pretty famous dish here and it looked amazing. I'm definitely coming back for that.

    El Pimiento Verde - Traditional tripe stew

With a decently sized menu, there will be no shortage of dishes to try. We elected to go for some Spanish classics and their featured dishes, which included their Creamy Rice with Lobster, Traditional Tripe Stew, and Aged Beer Rib-eye. The creamy rice with lobster is essentially a risotto, with the rice being cooked al dente. While the texture is nice, because of the smaller portion of lobster and the lack of flavor, by the end it feels like you're just left with a bowl of undercooked rice. The traditional tripe stew was quite good, with the beef being extremely tender and chewy. The rib-eye itself was a large cut, however, a good portion of the meat is fat. Additionally, it's only seasoned with a light touch of salt, so at the end of the day also lacking a bit. If you want to come to El Pimiento Verde, it's primarily for the ambience. The food itself is fine, though nothing to call home about. If you're short on time and looking for places to experience Spanish cuisine, this is probably one restaurant that can be skipped.

I truly have to highlight Pepe, Franco, and Grace for taking the time to speak to us and get to know us. The food was FANTASTIC.

It has that classic bustling tapas bar energy where everyone is close enough to feel like part of one big conversation. The food was the highlight. The clams were flavorful and fresh, the octopus was cooked beautifully and the paella was delicious. It is a great place to stop in for a drink and a quick bite, especially if you want something authentic and lively. When we visited, it was packed to the point where you were shoulder to shoulder with other guests and close enough to easily hear the party next to you. It adds to the charm if you enjoy that classic crowded European dining atmosphere, but it is something to keep in mind if you prefer more space.
