Was visiting some family friends in Madrid and they recommended we convene for some authentic…read moreAndalusian. It's a good 30+ minute drive from Madrid proper, but fortunately we were already heading to the surrounding suburbs. This meant that I was probably the only foreigner at the place, but the waitstaff were very accommodating. We started off with thin-cut tomato wheels, lightly salted and soaked in olive oil. Goodness, this was refreshing. We also ordered several flavours of croquetas, which were crispy and scrumptious. The jamón-stuffed ones were particularly indulgent. Afterwards, we dove into what was the largest seafood platter I had ever seen - mussels, prawns, scallops, thick-cut calamari rings... it was a literal cornucopia of the sea. The seafood was all fresh and well-executed. I think food of this quality and quantity would run you a fortune in the States, but our bill at El Tablao was quite reasonable (~€20) when split amongst our group. At midnight the whole restaurant joined together to sing Salve Rociera (staff were awesome and gave me a lyric sheet, as I had not a clue of what to recite). The staff also surprised us with some creamy, coffee-based digestifs - the perfect way to round out a warm Spanish summer. In short: charming, unpretentious place for Andalusian if you can find your way out of the city. Huge portions, so bring an appetite.

Pero nuestra cocina va más allá, ya que tratamos de ofrecer alternativas a la cocina tradicional con presentaciones de platos, texturas, sabores, olores y colores, para que su visita sea una experiencia no solo social sino también gastronómica. No por ello caemos en el minimalismo que tan de moda estuvo a finales de los 90 y principios del 2000. Trabajamos duro para tener una carta corta pero variada, divertida y elegante pero sobretodo con productos frescos y de la mejor calidad. Toda nuestra carta está 100% elaborada en nuestra cocina, limpiamos los pescados traídos de lonja, preparamos los fondos, salsas, reducciones, vinagretas y bisques.....todo, absolutamente todo los ingredientes que confirman nuestra carta está elaborado por nuestros experimentados Chefs.
