We visited around 9 PM and had to wait ~30 minutes in line. This was mostly bad luck, because I could tell we just missed getting in and there were open seats when we left around 10:30 PM. We had two rounds of drinks. The Oriental Experience (18€) is really three drinks together, served in bowls and with similar consistency, but very different flavors. The flavors were interesting; I'm glad we tried it, but I might not order it again. I had the Stout (14€) which was a blend of sherry, date water, and stout beer. It tasted like it sounds -- a mix of wine and stout beer -- and it reminded me a bit of a chocolate wine I had once. Next time, I would just get a stout beer. Our second round was the Ultramarino and Native Roots (14€ each). They first was not that interesting. It said it "rested in a clay amphora which is submerged in sea water for 72 hours" but this seemed more like a gimmick than anything. The Native Roots was super interesting because it was made with roots, tuber cordial, and potato vodka. I liked it a lot because it was so unique. Service was fine, if a little slow and inattentive. I like that they refilled our chips.

This drink consists of two cocktails. You receive a mini cocktail while it takes time to make the fizz.

Second is whiskey, oolong tea, cocoa, and palo santo. Third is baijiu, rice water, ginger, tangerine peel, orange blossom honey. Each drink was so distinct but my favorite was the second.

It ended up being one of my favorite meals while I was in Madrid. We liked the menu so much we had a hard time narrowing down our choices so we got four (but three would have been a good portion size for us). The Taco Pekines was a duck taco on roti with cucumbers, radish, red onion, and hoisin sauce. This was one large taco that we cut in half. This was our favorite of the night! Our second favorite was the pork gyoza. It had a flavorful dipping sauce and excellent portion size. The other two were good as well. Vegetarian spring rolls and the chicken wings. Both with great portion sizes. They refilled our waters without us asking. I was surprised that they brought us water without us even asking. Another nice touch was the popcorn while we were looking over the menu. I can't forget to mention that we had cocktails that were great too. We had the Cuppa tea cocktail and Bacano and both were unique and thoughtful combinations of flavors.

Everyone must have been hung over from the night before. Or still sleeping. The die hard NYE revelers stay out until about 7 AM in this country. Not me. I can't hang. Overall, the cocktail menu has about 20 of the usual suspects: martini, strawberry daiquiri, mai tai, manhattan, sidecar, etc. No prices in the menu but expect to pay about 7,25 each. In other words, about half the price you'd pay at a cocktail bar in New York, so a major bargain for me. The sidecar was delicious, as was the whiskey sour. While not explicitly clear in the menu, this place will either create cocktails for you or let you create your own. Just ask. Desperately wanting paella across the street at La Barraca, the unoccupied waiter took the time to run across the street to check on availability, then again to make a reservation. Excellent customer service, though he was taken aback at my gesture of a small tip for his efforts, which he reluctantly accepted. Bottom line is there really aren't that many bars in Madrid dedicated specifically to cocktails, despite the size of the city. Consider this place a rarity. Other: Very classy decor. Cool music. Chill vibes. Free wifi zone. No food.

And I used to casually like gin before, but this place has made it my go-to drink! The bartenders are so nice and were great at making suggestions.

The atmosphere is nice, but chill. This is a great place to start off the night with a refreshing gin cocktail! (They do offer other types of alcohol for those who really don't like gin, but I have to say- if you try one of their gin drinks and don't like it, you're crazy!)

Though listed as a gay bar, and it does have a good number of young (as in 16...forget that the sign says you must be 18.....) to 25 year old gay guys in it, it also seems to attract a near equal number of heteros out to party with the female dates. After all, when it comes to liveliness, there are few places that can compare with a good friendly bar loaded with a mix of gays and straights as well as those of undetermined orientation. It has a young following and though I exceeded the average age of the other patrons by a mere half century, had a good time drinking and chatting with everyone. Matter of fact, the atmosphere about the place is sort of club like, everyone friendly and just there to enjoy a good time.

They explained the menu briefly. I will say that throughout my visit, I was checked on by my server, multiple times. It was not overwhelming, and they genuinely wanted to make sure I had the best experience. Based on our servers recommendation I ordered the aperitivos. Came with delicious warm bread and butter, tempura prawns, dumplings, egg rolls, salmon tartare and crab rangoons. Everything was delicious. I also ordered the burrata. I was blown away by each and every dish. As far as drinks, this restaurant has the most unique and delicious cocktail. I tried the Sayonara Baby, No me llames muñeca, Taparrabos de Adan y Eva, Al Agua Patos, Love Potion, and Maracas de Machin. All of the drinks were delicious, refreshing and insanely cute. You could easily tell there was a lot of care and details put into each drink. If you cannot tell by this review, the food is beyond delicious.
