    Mexican food in the heart of Madrid? Why bother you might ask, surely there can't be legitimate…read moreMexican food in a city that prides itself on paella, and other Spanish claims of fame. It's very small as other reviewers have noted so make a reservation or pray that you'll be able to snag a table during off-peak hours. We stalked the entrance until it opened one night and were able to get a table. We were not disappointed! The Tacos al pastor were incredible. The meat so tender and succulent. The Chicken enmolada will change your life. The chicken is the star of the dish, not to be outdone by the spices that complement it. Even the guacamole was a standout. It is pure, not the kind of guacamole that you'll find at any Tex Mex establishment. It is hand crafted, smooth, lightly salted, with a dash of lemon. Service was incredible. The two gentleman that run this place are from Mexico, and take great pride in delivering delicious, authentic food. Definitely make it a point to stop in if you're fortunate enough to be in Madrid.

    Wow what a nice place to get my Mexican food fix! Don't get me wrong we LOVE tapas but After 2…read moreweeks in Spain my girlfriends and I were missing our Mexican food. We're from Los Angeles and Mexican food is readily available everywhere (including moms cooking :). It's a small place so I do recommend you make reservations if u can (there are about 5 tables). This is an actual sit down meal so standing isn't really an option. The owner was the sweetest man! He was so attentive and eager to serve all of his guests. Best service we had in all of Spain. He seemed so proud of his business. Food: we ordered the guacamole which was fantastic. The enchiladas were perfect as was the beef fajitas. Oh and the tortillas are hand made! Perfect. They also have fresh jalapeños so that alone was such a life saver. The prices were good as well. I most certainly recommend giving this place a shot. Supporting such a good, clean establishment with stellar service is worth trying (yes the restrooms were spotless!) Gracias por todo y el tequila!
