    This was the first dinner meal my mom and I had in Madrid and let's just say it completely exceeded…read moremy expectations. When we walked in we were welcomed by such warm service! 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. We ordered the seafood paella, jamon iberico, garlic shrimp, and sangria. The paella was filled with a ton of flavor which was DELICIOUS. Everything was fantastic, but the Sangria was spectacular, (probably one of the best sangrias I've ever had). At the end of our meal, Pepe brought us two liquor de Limon shots, which made our whole night!! Definitely recommend this place in the La Latina neighborhood. You won't regret it!

    El Sur is a charming little spot in Madrid, tucked right into the wall of a narrow street. The…read morespace is very small and they manage to fit a surprising number of people inside, so you immediately notice how tight the squeeze is. 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.

    Great atmosphere, great service, and amazing food. Everything was fresh and delicious. I ordered…read morethe sea bowl, which came with smoked salmon, ricotta cheese, Avocado, eggs, toasted bread crumbs and a pesto sauce. Fantastic.

    Two tourists here from california- we got two smoothies (the strawberry banana and the super banana…read morechai). the strawberry banana tasted like a literal milkshake and was so insanely refreshing and delicious. the banana chai was a little more on the bitter side but equally as delicious and fresh. we both then ordered medium tierra panebols which had an array of fresh ingredients. it had sweet potatoes, slow roasted beef, and a poached egg with arugula. absolutely delicious and balanced meal that left us feeling great but full afterwards. the menu is extensive but not big enough to the point of being weird. everything sounds amazing and i don't think you can go wrong with ordering anything here! ambiance wise, it gives intimate coffee shop but with a full bar. some people were on laptops with a coffee and others were a big group at a table having a large meal. there was one waitress working who took our orders, made our drinks, and brought out the food. however! unlike other places in europe she was very very attentive and genuinely cared about your needs, answered every question with a smile on her face, and was very fast with bringing anything you needed. overall 10/10 place and would 100% come back :)
