This is a easy choice. Stupendously delicious with generous amounts of sauces in each dish. When…read moreyou are wondering, where is the olive oil or butter for the bread you realize you don't need it because you'll want to dip your bread in the sauces. Just a wonderful harmony of flavors, whether red meats or seafood. What's more impressive to me is they clear your plates quite a few times when you share some entrées and appetizers. If you're lucky to come on a crystal clear day, you'll maybe sit in the patio area under the umbrellas. Order a bottle of their La Orza house white for dirt cheap and your meal is complete. Certain high seasons, you may not be able to get a reservation, however, all the local guides know the owner so ask your tour guide how you can maybe get in.

Great food, but badgered for alcohol 7 times in one hour…read more The food and ambiance were good, but the service was unacceptable. I was dining with my teenage son, and despite ordering a full three-course meal (two appetizers, two mains, and two desserts), our server treated us like we were an inconvenience because we weren't ordering cocktails. There seems to be an unspoken rule here: if you don't order at least two alcoholic drinks per person, you aren't welcome. Our waiter was smug and self-important, pressuring me to order alcohol seven (7) separate times over the course of an hour. When I politely declined, he actually scoffed and told me, "In Spain, everyone has wine with their meals." We had already ordered two Cokes and two bottles of sparkling water, yet it felt like our "value" as guests was tied solely to a liquor quota. It is incredibly off-putting to be lectured on cultural drinking habits while trying to enjoy a meal with my son. If you're looking for hospitality rather than a high-pressure sales pitch, look elsewhere.

Haven't really eaten anything in the past 4 days so I was looking for somewhere to eat to satisfy…read moremy hunger. Came across this place on Yelp and saw it had good reviews so I wanted to check it out for myself. Just the sight of people's pictures of the burgers made me really hungry and it was practically the only thing on my mind all day. Decided to make it a night out, and reserved a table relatively late into the evening. Finding the place was more than alright. It's hardly hard to miss. In the middle of Spain something America styled sticks out like a saw thumb. As I don't speak much Spain, I was worried that communicating was going to be a little tough but turned out to be more than alright. There was a tone of options on the menu to choose from but had to stick with what I saw on the website which was Pulled Pork Burger, Chicken Stripes and Chips with bacon on. When the food came I was pretty overwhelmed if I'm honest. I got my money's worth. I thought I'd get three or four Chicken Stripes but turns out it was a basket. The burger was really big and chock full as well. It was really yummy and didn't even touch the sides. I couldn't manage it all so some of it had to be taken back in a bag which I'll eat at home. Overall, great service, great food, great music/atmosphere and a great night out. Well worth it!

Excellent, excellent cheeseburger and fries. Kid approved!…read more Jose, the owner, speaks very good English and paid meticulous attention to our order. The location was just down the street from our rented apartment and was a welcome change to the tapas crawl. Everyone was tired and worn out so we got the order to go. Not any problem. I'd definitely eat here again. Thanks Jose!

I believe they've gobbled up the nearby spaces around them, so they can open up more seating capacity and open a take out counter. They also have an outdoor patio. The original still looks beautiful inside. You know the churros is fresh, because the people keep coming. And that thick cup of chocolate is so good!

Please note that this review is specifically for the Chocolatería San Ginés at Pasadizo de San…read moreGinés in Madrid, as there are multiple locations. My parents were visiting Madrid and were genuinely excited to try the famous churros and hot chocolate at Chocolatería San Ginés. Unfortunately, their experience was ruined by one of the servers, Ali, a tall, grey-haired man. While serving them, Ali said "chino, chino, cappuccino" while making a derogatory gesture pulling the skin around his eyes. The gesture is extremely offensive and inappropriate in 2026. My parents told him directly that he should not be doing things like that. My mother also told him "we may all look different, but we are all the same," and expressed how much she loves Spain but dislikes being treated this way by people like him. What makes this especially upsetting is that my parents were guests visiting Spain from the US and were looking forward to experiencing the culture and food. Instead, they left with a very sour impression because of the behavior of one employee. The churros and hot chocolate may be well known, but no food is worth being subjected to a racist or derogatory gesture. I hope management takes this seriously and addresses this employee's behavior so other visitors do not have a similar experience.

Food is very reasonably priced for the area. Our server brought out a menu board written in English, which was very helpful. The food - Grilled Aspargus - grilled tender and gently seasoned Stewed Pork Cheek with Rice - this is comfort food - stewed meat, gravy, and rice - not complicated, but soul warming Patatas Bravas - a reasonable version Feel like the menu got off the rails a bit here - Duck Confit with Apple - used to a more spiced version with a pan seared skin. Duck is ok, the apple is really soft with tough skin. Paella Mixta - a very chicken and bell pepper forward version of a paella Chocolate à la tazo - hot chocolate - a thinner, less chocolatey version than we had at other restaurants. Also, it was a broken emulsion. Green Salad with Sardine and Fresh Cheese - I thought this was a weird mixture of greens, carrots, tomatoes, olives, sardines, and mild/soft cheese. It's true to the menu description, but never had this combo before.
