I was here for a conference and our host took us to this group dinner. My first Michelin star (1 star) meal. Known for fish. The sole is a 2 person dish and would recommend this. Cooked over wood fire and just perfectly without overcooking. Served with sauce that was delicious. As a main would highly recommend. Hake jowl ordered by my friend was a bit fishy. Monkfish was nice with good texture. They ordered crazy amounts of tapas to start the meal. Jamon iberico was high quality here. Service was a bit rushed and servers seemed a bit impatient but maybe that's just my impression and could be something lost in translation. Definitely friendly overall and thoughtful when I wanted to take pictures. Dessert was to die for. Torrejas was not on the menu but I would come back here just for this. Was a type of bread pudding. The arroz con leche is like a rice pudding and had a brûlée topping. The crepe was good too but the other two are highly recommended. read more

Near Madrid on the road to El Pardo, it is a charming place with a beautiful patio and ample parking. The food but particularly the fish is excellent. My companion and I shared a perfectly cooked lenguado, that one should not miss. Unfortunately our dining experience was marred by poor, haphazard service. Our table of 12 had to wait an unusual amount of time after being seated before being able to order. There were short delays before all entrees were served and there seemed to be a lack of supervisory personnel in the large dining patio. In terms of food we were a bit disappointed with the small size of some entrees and the unimaginative choice of guarniciones for the main dish. In places like these one expects to pay top euros, Yet it seemed too steep what they charged for bread, Jars of water and guarniciones In sum, an uneven dining experience that prevents us from giving a top rating to this popular place read more

Our best meal in Madrid!! If you are looking for an authentic Spanish meal, this is it! This place is outside of the Madrid city limit so you do need a car to get here. Upon entering, you are inside a beautiful barn house restaurant. We decided to sit inside so we can avoid the smokers. We ordered family style - starting with Iberico Jamón and flatbread pizza. Both were super delicious. We then proceeded with octopus w/ aioli sauce. The sauce was super light and added so much flavor to the octopus. We ended up asking for more aioli sauce so we can dip our chips in it. For entrees, we shared the grilled fish, which was super fresh and the steak, which was well executed. All the cookings involved locally sourced ingredients with the simplest seasonings. We also shared a bottle of PSI, which paired very well with the meal. This place is highly recommended! read more

La verdad es que la experiencia ha sido terrible. La comida fue un verdadero problema desde los appetizers hasta los platos principales, no hubo un solo platillo preparado correctamente. El salpicón vino sin sabor, las ensaladas sin aderezos, el rodaballo vino en una sopa de aceite de oliva y la hamburguesa cruda. El espacio estaba lleno de moscas y lo peor de todo es que no había personal para reclamar, el gerente "no estaba" y el personal de la cocina "estaba ocupado" Este lugar ha perdido mis respetos completamente read more

Nice place to have a family lunch including a 3 month old and a 4 year old. Servers were very nice and prompt. Food was amazing. Our table had a variety of fishes and for starters the glass bread, pulpo, shrimps and tomato and asparagus salad. All wonderful! Setting was beautiful and cozy with fires as we entered. Highly recommend. read more

This is a beautiful restaurant with spectacular food. Let's start with the service - top notch. I noticed they pay very careful attention to detail. Place settings, cleanliness, the glasses, everything was cared for. Wine - If your glass runs dry - they pour. The food is comprised of the finest ingredients and obviously is selected with care. The menu has something for everyone and every course is covered. There are plenty of meat and fish dishes to choose from. The prices are pretty good when considering the quality of food and level of service. The wine list is extensive. You won't find fancy plating here, in that I mean a dab of color here and a flower there. This is set up more like an upscale farm to table experience. We loved every minute and will definitely head back for more. read more

A beautiful setting with outdoor lighting that sets the stage before you even walk in. The grill and fresh vegetables draw you in even further upon entering the space. Burrata appetizer was creamy and the arugula was a nice bitter balance. The monk fish and sirloin were both top notch. Highly recommend! read more

Outstanding restaurant with a wonderful ambiance from the second you.pull in the drive. The food , from the starters through the desserts, were all delicious and very well presented. read more

Ambiance appears to reflect some sort of "natural chic" with wooden tables and wood panels on ceiling and walls, hower you then find brown plastic chairs combined with other wooden/woven chairs which does not provide a harmonious match. Interior chimney nice, but the air always a bit smokey. The food: quality is good, but presentation is very bland. Some of our plates also had some fingerprints at second glance. The menus appeared worn out, also with quiet a few stains on them. Service overall is ok, no complaints. Overall: Solid restaurant, nice setting, good quality food, but loses out on the details. Not a must for Madrid in my opinion. read more

Filandón - Spanish Near Me - Madrid, M

Beautiful, Beautiful, Delicious, Delicious, and Delicious....is all I can think of as I sit down to write this review after my recent trip to Madrid. We were staying about 15 minutes from downtown Madrid as my husband and I were attending an event for about a week. Several times we took a cab into the city for dinner and it was ok...but then I found Filandon on Yelp! I wish I had looked sooner...and I ate there three times, each time with a new person added to the group, in one week! Yes it was that good. At first I was a bit skeptical because we were outside of the city and well I figured it was just going to be a local cafe of sorts...and we were so wrong-this is a delicious, gourmet, beautiful experience! It is also a place to see beautiful people! As you walk inside they have a giant grill where they are cooking fresh whole fish, inside glass walls, that let you see into the spotless kitchen. Also, we were greeted by hostesses who were very helpful and friendly even though we only knew a bit of Spanish. A little further in they lay out/display fresh vegetables, fishes, breads in a stunning display showing the freshness of what they are offering. Every evening we sat outside on what is one of the most beautiful and well planned out terraces. They have heaters and even blankets should you get a bit chilly later into the evening. The first night we did not realize they had english menu's (I was translating from the online english one) but were offered them later on another evening. The fresh whole sole is the dish of the house and yes...I ate it three times in one week. The burrata and grilled squid were simply delicious. Many dishes were tried throughout the week and the only one I wasn't that impressed with was the asparagus/tomato salad....which wasn't bad since between three nights and several people we tried just about everything there was to have on the menu. The wait staff was incredibly attentive, helpful, and patient with us and our broken Spanish. They have gluten free options and you can ask (and they will bake up) fresh gluten free bread. I highly recommend trying this restaurant off the beaten path! Twice we did not have reservations and once we did as they get very busy after 10 pm! read more

A great experience! The View, the ambiance, and the Food- all beyond great! Came here for a nice family lunch with our 3 kids (9,7,4 yrs old) and service was excellent...they were just as happy as we were...a bit on the pricey side but well worth it... spent a long Sunday "lunch" here and left in real Sundaze! read more

Amazing dish here in a great environment. From the get go it smells delicious and smokey and the service is friendly and knowledgeable. Be sure to splurge and order more than you need to so you can flavorsport on the back porch. read more

On the outskirts of Madrid. This place offers fish and meet on wood fire grill. All dishes were spectacular. Great selection of traditional Spanish dishes. Don't come here looking for paella. Had anchovies, calamari, and red shrimp to start. For main course is shared a large chulets. Cheese for desert! All perfect. Amazing wine selection at very reasonable prices. read more
