Food is not overpriced either
Vonnie M.

It is in a posh location with many other restaurants along the same street. My friend and I decided to give this one a try and was rather disappointed. Whenever I experience poor service, I don't blame the waiters but the manager, because he/she didn't train and manage the staff sufficiently. After ordering a G/T while waiting for my friend to arrive, another waiter asked me if I wanted a drink. In a proper restaurant there should be sufficient internal communication to avoid this. The food, braised ox tail which I was told a Madrid specialty, was mediocre. Honestly I cook more tasty ox tail. He didn't give me the correct cutlery for the main until I asked otherwise I had to eat with the best knife and the tiny salad fork! The problem was towards the latter part of the dinner, the waiter cleared my friends players while I was still eating! And asked me 3 times if I have finished!! My ox tail was only half way through and I didn't put my knife and fork together, a simple and clear sign of finishing the food. It's not particular late that he was rushing to go home. There were still 70% of the customers at the restaurant so they didn't need to kick us out and make space either. The plus side is that the wine list is about 15 page long and reasonably priced. The street is hustling with well dressed people so it's a nice spot for people watching. The outdoor seats are very pleasant. As long as you stick with the winner and olives, it's still a nice spot for a glass.

Bar Tomate - Chicken Tikka Masala

Dined here on our last night in Madrid. Loved the atmosphere, was trendy without being intimidating…read moreor snooty. Had menus in english, if you needed that, as well as English speaking servers. I loved how eclectic the menu was, seemed like there was something for any craving. We enjoyed the tomato tartare, salmon, duck tacos and the chicken tikka masala. Traditional Spanish cuisine is wonderful but if you're looking for a change I think you'll love this place!

Hello my friends, I…read moreknow it has been quite some time, but I'm coming at you with a Dan Hanis certified all-time great restaurant right here. Absolutely everything on this menu is delightful. I don't think you can go wrong anywhere. As I began my journey abroad, I roamed the streets of Madrid, and I happened to run into 4 lovely ladies. Catalina, Teresa, Alejandra, and the craziest of them all, my girlfriend Elizabeth! Elizabeth and I hadn't talked for a couple weeks since I left the family farming business. She was infuriated when she received the news that I was walking away from my destiny. She just didn't know if she could love someone who wasn't a farmer anymore. As I took a break from my cellular device, we hadn't talked since I left. Running into her in Spain was quite the surprise. She told me that I was just truly the greatest man in the world and that she would love me farmer or not. On her quest to find me, she became friends with these lovely ladies. To celebrate life we decided to have a lavish meal at Bar Tomate! Enough with the backstory, this restaurant is one of my favorites I've been to in the continent that is Europe. Sometimes it can get messy having a diverse menu, but Bar Tomate handles it with such class. To begin the night, I ordered a delicious Whiskey Sour (it reminded me of the beautiful fields of grain back in my homeland of the USA!). For my appetizer I ordered the ceviche which was absolutely mouthwatering. Every time I think of it, I immediately start to drool, so I try to limit myself from thinking of this incredible dish. The fish, onion, and avocado are just so well balanced with the acidic taste of the juice (I love juice).This dish makes it into the Dan Hanis Dish Hall of Fame. I cannot recommend this enough. For my entree, I ordered the chicken tikka masala. By no means was it the best I've ever had, but it was a delicious eat nonetheless. For dessert, after we'd been at the restaurant eating and drinking for a total of four hours, we ordered the brownie sundae. Bar Tomate had such a wonderful atmosphere, and the employees were in no rush to get us out of the door. To this day, Bar Tomate, gave me one of my favorite dining experiences, and I'll forever be grateful to them for it. It was wonderful to eat amazing food and make new friends. I can't wait to tell you about the rest of my journey across Europe. God Bless America and God Bless Food! Your glorious food king, Dan Hanis

The decor leading up to the rooftop was absolutely stunning and like nothing I've ever seen. The dining area was intimate and nicely lit. Upon sitting, our servers immediately greeted my party. 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. This was a perfect evening with great service and great food.
