This maybe as close as I get to El Bulli's level of cooking. You see, Chef Paco Roncero is one of…read moreFerran Adria's closest disciples and was tasked with running his Madrid outpost of progressive cooking and the associated division of El Bulli catering. Being the first gastronomic heavy hitter of all the restaurants we'd hit in Spain, it was definitely an interesting journey. My friend was deathly ill the night before and we'd have to trek across the streets of Madrid which not only rain but hail in our suits. We'd arrived at the building which is actually a members only casino, which was founded back in 1836. It is also an art/architecture gallery, a place of gastronomy since Ferran Adria took over the food vision in 1998. As a historical structure alone, this is worth seeing but we were here for the food and we were going big with the menu degustacion. It's broken up into many parts in a playful manner: *Cocktail Caipirinha nitro *Snacks Sweet potato chips Alga Lollipop Saffron Styled Macadamian Nuts Tempura Petal Rose Philo Pizza Sandwish with Spiced Sausage Syrup with Roes of Trout *Tapas Liquid fritter 2006's version Razor clam with lemon, juniper and coconut foam Kellogs paella Marrow with caviar *Main courses Ceps with onion and bacon and Port wine sauce "Fettuccini Carbonara" Red mullets served in consomme Lamb with little onions and mushroom *Desserts Our Catalonian cream Liquorice cake with ice cream apple, lime pudding and creamy chocolate *Petitfours Crunchy raspberry snack Peta colas False "polvorón" cake made with pine seeds Bread with chocolate Tonka Toffee with Redcurrent As at El Bulli, there are a ton of courses and all very theatrical but at the same time, and more importantly, tasty. For after dinner coffee and tea, I don't know if I've seen a larger selection. Their in house infusion selection alone rivals any dozen restaurants put together. The service was very formal and we found that some of our servers were easier to break down than others, but in the end it turned out friendly even though it started out stuffy. If you don't end up making it to El Bulli, as they're closing by end of summer 2011, take a detour to Madrid and let Terraza del Casino treat you in similar fashion.

This place is beauty. The food blends together into a European fusion luxury experience. High…read moreflavors are very prominent in all of the dishes. The meats and fishes are incredible and always cooked to perfection. The salads are truly a worker art the flavors, bursting and freshness exudes from every single dish. A member of our party had the chicken tikka and while he did say that it was excellent it is a bit odd that they have chicken tikka on a European inspired menu. The service is quite typical for this type of restaurant: quick and easy but not outstanding. The ambience makes you feel like you're in the middle of a bright city like New York or Tokyo, the bustling waiters and heavy foot traffic throughout the restaurant brings up the energy and the constant chatter and noise from other diners really makes you feel immersed in the whole experience. Would highly recommend this restaurant to anybody and it is definitely a destination landmark on a trip to Madrid.

Looking for a place to eat on our last night in Madrid, Yelp came to the rescue. Even though there…read morewere not many reviews or photos, my gut told me to give this place a try. This was just a few minutes of walking distance from our Sonder suite. After shopping for 6 hours, we were famished. We walked in around 7:30pm. They were kind enough to turn on the lights up for us in the dining room and seat us (dinner usually starts at 8-10pm in Spain). Let me just say that service was a class act from start to finish. Here is what we ordered: My son: I am going to have the Cod Tripe. What are you ordering, mom? Me: the Oxtail Traditional My son: Oooh, I will have some of yours too. Me: of course you are. My son: you can have one of my tripe. Please know that most places will ask if you want bread. They will charge you for it. My son used the bread to soak up the Cod Tripe Soup. I loved the chickpeas and I am happy my son got to have tripe before leaving Spain. It was on his bucket list of things to eat here. Our waiter came by with complimentary gazpacho and omg, what a delightful treat. It was perfect on a hot summer day. It had bits of potatoes and pears. I wanted a whole bowl. I think this place is a hidden gem!! Surprised that there are not more reviews. The food was absolutely delicious. It had that homemade touch! Don't forget to order dessert. We got the Pineapple Presented in 3 Textures. It had coconut milk and sago on one side and cinnamon crumbles on the other. The pineapple had sprinkles of salt. The flavor profiles tickled my tongue. Perfect on this 88 degree day. Truly worth a visit!

There's a cozy and heated terrace upon entry in front of a glass panel revealing the interior of the establishment. Staff is friendly and attentive to detail, ensuring amazing service. Now, moving on to the important factor, the FOOD: They have focused on delivering affordable, high quality and delicious food for workers from the surrounding offices. The excellent daily menu they offer has a starter, main course and dessert, with the option of paying 16 or 18 euros depending on the main dish you order. (look at pics attached) Starter: Chicken Salad Wock Style; the chicken was crunchy (breaded) and the salad as a whole was pretty well executed. Main Course: Ceviche Limeno; this dish is a Peruvian classic that consists of raw white fish cut into small cubes with sliced raw onion in a strong citric sauce. This was by far the highlight of the meal, the fish was fresh and the ratio of ingredients was superb. (my brother chose the tuna tartar which was another great dish, that came with a delicious nutty sauce.) Dessert: I chose the kiwi fruit platter witch was a peeled and nicely sliced fresh kiwi
