    Service was wonderful and the conversation was excellent, but a bit slow because they were so busy. Great outside seating in a perfect location off the busy street. Sangria and red wine were good. The Caesar salad was large and delicious, with a deviled-egg type dressing. (Photo shows half of it.) Guacamole and chips was delicious after adding some salt. We're Americans, so we like added flavor! The cod fish was fresh, but again a bit bland. I recommend ordering several dishes and sharing.

    Gazpacho de Melon

    I went here after wandering around the area with my sister. We were really hungry, and this place was close by. When we read the menu, items sounded delicious, but when we tasted them they were rather plain. I ordered the melon gazpacho, but it was very much just the taste of plain melon. My sister ordered the lasagna bolognese, but it was more melted cheese than lasagna. I was still hungry after the soup but didn't want to try anything else. To finish things off we ordered dessert. It was yummy, but not really special. My sister and I found the food decent, but it isn't something we'd go back to or recommend. However, the service was nice.

    Chicken & endive salad with mustard dressing.

    Great place conveniently located near the Prado museum. A bit of everything for even picky eaters. Language was a bit of a challenge, I ordered a vermouth and was first offered a beer, then brought a glass of white wine. Friendly staff and fast service.

    Rabo de toro (oxtail) stew.  So tender and Yummy!

    This place was awesome. Food and drinks were very tasty and reasonably priced. Javi is the best!

    We visited this place for a late lunch post Museo del Prado. The food was delicious but the service was a solid 3/5, with our server being aggressive because of the lack of staff.

    2.40 euros? Hell yea.

    Its in a small plaza (yup, the best spots are in plazas), right across the street from the giant park. Dope spot to just grab 1 euro cerve(th)as, that come with free tapa crostini con jamon y queso...and people-watch, sit in the sun, have long conversations and smoke. Lots of people just hanging out talking. No cell phones out....just talking. Love.

    Inside view but outside is a better choice on a nice evening.

    Just stopped by here for some sangria and espresso mid-day. The place was very busy and the dishes that were being brought out looked really good. The sangria was just okay and it was all well-priced for being in a very touristy area.

    Great food, reasonable prices. Had octopus with garlic tomato potatoes and mixed plate with cured meat and cheeses. Two glasses of sangria (I've waited years for real sangria!)

This drink consists of two cocktails. You receive a mini cocktail while it takes time to make the fizz. Drink is garnished with a little ice cream and is creamy and refreshing. - oriental experience - three mini cocktails. First is rum, sherry, chinese pumpkin. 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.

From the moment we walked in, the staff was beyond friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere was vibrant, lively, and fun. I ordered the sangria, which was honestly the best I had in Madrid, while my mom enjoyed a lovely glass of wine. We started with the padrón peppers, burrata with tomato salsa, and patatas bravas -- every single dish was packed with flavor and absolutely delicious. For the main course, we had the beef with chimichurri and butter, and OMG... it was phenomenal. Everything was cooked perfectly, and all the flavors complemented each other so well. To finish the night, we shared the chocolate dessert and the "Love Chueca" cocktail, which was incredible and the perfect ending to an amazing meal. Couldn't recommend this restaurant enough. Amazing food, fantastic drinks, wonderful staff, and such a great atmosphere. We'll definitely be back next time we're in Madrid!

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.

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.
