A bit of a splurge but worth it when in Madrid and in the mood for a steak. Located a few blocks…read moreeast of Puerta del Sol, it's nice because there are no hordes of people you have to navigate to find it. This is a place for people who appreciate their food and the experience, not for the tourist masses that are looking to get fed quick and cheap. It is an interesting set up as they have dining rooms on both sides of the street. I was in the one on the east side of the street and taken downstairs into the basement which has the looks of a refurbished ancient cellar. I had a 2 top in the corner to myself with a great view of the room so I could appreciate what everyone else was eating. I had a very civilized time. Frenetic Tapas this is not. There are white linen tablecloths present, a small container of housemade chimichurri, menus on line, great wi-fi service, a full bar and wine list, and menus that are bovine centric. I had an Argentine Negroni (the Argentine nod is due to a splash of Fernet Branca giving it a slight minty taste on the back end) and a glass of affordable, high ranking Tempranillo. These were perfect with the olive and bread starters with EVOO/Spanish vinegar on the table to mix to taste and also served with compounded butter. I was there to eat and the Mollejas (veal sweetbreads) are a must in my opinion. They are listed as a house specialty and come on a charcoal heated sizzle plate served with a side of broad flaked sea salt to finish to taste. Crispy edges and creamy textures throughout with a hit of grilled lemon and they were simply sublime. I also took down an Entraña (skirt steak) that seemed larger than its described 300 grams. Also served on a sizzle plate it was perfectly cooked by some expert grill guys upstairs. To ensure that I ate something with color, I had a salad on the side that I dressed to taste with the EVOO/Spanish vinegar on the table. The service here is friendly, professional, and not overbearing. My meal was about $85 USD which is pricey by typical Madrid eating standards but it was worth it considering the quality, quantity, and variety of what I experienced. I would be happy to go back here again any time I'm in the area!

A great first meal in Spain! The food was fantastic, and service was even better. Thanks to our…read moreserver, Santiago, who let us shave the ham, gave us a complimentary sorbet drink, and didn't make fun of us when we ordered way too much food, hahah! We don't speak Spanish, but he helped us out with Google Translate and made us feel welcome. Loved that the menu had English titles, very helpful. Overall, I felt like there was a warm atmosphere here. We got eggplant sticks with honey, artichoke with salty ham, and croquettes. Not a bad bite to be found. I can't even pick a favorite; everything was outstanding. Definitely recommend this restaurant! We paid about $65 for everything, including what's mentioned above plus a glass of wine, bread, and olives.

Now it was early to. have a dinner but as I had an early flight the next day I didn't want to be up too late. So they have this complimentary chorizo that they brought out and it was delicious. The almonds and fresh chips/crisps were nice starters also. Went with the sirloin medium rare, it was a little under when it came out to the table but my waiter explained that the "Hot Stone" was to grill it to your liking which was pretty cool. It was my first experience with this and I really enjoyed it, it just kind of added something to the meal. The service was better than other restaurants in Madrid that I had eaten at and sitting out on the patio was also pretty nice as the day was pretty great.

We had a glass of an excellent Malbec with the beef. We highly recommend the local immersion here!
