    Wonderful food and service. We had paella, ravioli, risotto, noodles with verduras. Excellent staff. We first ate here 9 years ago and have come back six, three years ago and again last night

    Shrimp Paella
    Ruby N.

    My friends and I were excited to try this Spanish restaurant with great reviews. There was a wait however the line moved extremely fast, and it was one of the restaurants that opened late. The restaurant was cozy and had many locals dining in. We ordered the garlic shrimp and the Seafood Paella which we were most excited to try. Our waiter was a little passive-aggressive when we wanted to change to a table with a little more room. The small-sized garlic shrimp (4 pieces) came out first and before the rest of the food came out, my friend had already finished her shrimp because the waiter forgot to add the side of rice to our order. The shrimp was warm and flavorful. I was disappointed with the paella because it was dry on the outside and mushy in random parts of the rice. The salmon was extremely dry and the rice tasted better with lemon. It seemed like a busy day because it was difficult to get the bill and it seemed like there was a delay in the kitchen.

    Cheese plate
    Raven R.

    Came here for dinner. The place is cozy but we managed to get a table right away. Our server was very nice and funny. We ordered the cheese plate, croquettas, grilled scallops, ropa vieja, grilled vegetables, and sangria. The cheese plate was a delightful mix of different items served with jam and nuts. The croquetas were perfectly crispy on the outside and soft and gooey inside. The grilled scallops were tasty and fresh. Ropa vieja was tender with generous amounts of sauce served on chips. The grilled vegetables were packed with flavor and had a nice char. The sangria was sweet and refreshing. They even gave us complimentary digestives after! Such a wonderful place for a meal in Madrid.

    Food here was to die for! Had huevos rotos ( fried eggs over fried crispy potatoes and Spanish ham ), fried crispy eggplant with a sweet honey sauce (crujientes de berenjena) garlicky shrimp (gambones al ajillo ) and mushroom croquettes (croquetas de boletus) . We rather have the ham croquettes but they had ran out of them.The place has such a nice atmosphere. We had a reservation, came for breakfast/brunch around 11:00 am and the place was pretty empty . Not sure exactly what they gave us but they gave us some sort of juice shot. It was a delicious treat to end up brunch.Service was good.

    TL;DR: Highly recommended. Hidden gem. Highly recommended. Mas al Sur is truly a hidden gem in Madrid. Tucked away in a quiet street, this unassuming restaurant surprised me with its excellent food and even better staff. As I entered, I was greeted by a warm and cosy atmosphere, with neat and clean wooden tables. The paella was a standout. Bursting with flavors and cooked to perfection, every bite was a true delight. The croquettes were crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside, leaving me craving for more. The empanada, with its flaky crust and savory filling, was also a highlight. the risotto was rich and creamy, with a perfect balance of flavors. What truly sets Mas al Sur apart is its impeccable staff. The team was attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to make the dining experience memorable. Overall, Mas al Sur exceeded my expectations. The combination of delicious food, cosy atmosphere, and outstanding service makes it a must-visit restaurant in Madrid. Whether you're a local or a tourist, be sure to seek out this hidden gem for an unforgettable dining experience. Highly recommended.

    Más Al Sur is a small restaurant that many locals seem to frequent. It has a bar-esque interior with darker bricks and enough space to just walk in and get a table. Emiliano was our server, and he was very attentive and friendly. He even gave me and my friend free shots and took one with us! The prices here are lower than usual, as well, when looking at comparable restaurants. It is very central and was walkable from our hotel in the city. We ordered the seafood paella, grilled vegetables, and Asian-inspired noodles. The Asian noodles were around a 2.5/5. They had a distinct Asian flavor but were also very sweet. There seems to be a lot of sugar in this dish which was off putting. The seafood paella was alright at a 3/5. Not bad and not memorable. It wasn't too fishy, which was nice, but only came with one shrimp and a couple clams. There were lots of squid pieces, though. The grilled vegetables were a 4/5 and tasted as expected. The goat cheese it came with was nice and not too goaty. Friendly service and easy to get a table. Prices were accurate according to what was given. Emiliano is awesome!

    This is the very first stop we did in Madrid. And it could not have been more perfect. It was a few blocks from our hotel, and it's a very small and cozy tapas place. The first thing we ordered of course was the sangria and it was the best one we had in the whole trip. Both in presentation and taste by far. We also got the grilled octopus, tuna tartare, and a couple of all the things and everything was amazing. Service was good. People in Spain are not friendly, chatty and smiley when they serve you. They just take your order and bring it to you and get the job done. This is not a lack of Customer Service it's just the way things are. Decor is very eclectic, it has a wood cabin vibe. The outside has only a couple of tables. The place is small but it gets quite crowded, you need reservations for dinner. I believe there's a bigger dining room in the back, but I didn't see it. It was an amazing experience. I would definitely recommend just for the sangria and the octopus alone!

    Buttery n!pple shots to end the experience!

It is a great place to stop in for a drink and a quick bite, especially if you want something authentic and lively. When we visited, it was packed to the point where you were shoulder to shoulder with other guests and close enough to easily hear the party next to you. It adds to the charm if you enjoy that classic crowded European dining atmosphere, but it is something to keep in mind if you prefer more space.

    Angelita Madrid, tucked into the city's cozy Chueca neighborhood, is the shared invention of…read morevisionary restaurateurs David and Mario Villalón. Its cocktail venue is one of Madrid's most subtly invigorating places to drink. In a restaurant scene that is constantly reinventing itself, 'Angelita' doesn't chase trends. It defines its own universe. Finding the bar is part of the experience. Entering through the dining area upstairs, one is guided down an almost secret staircase to what might be called, Center Stage. This is where cocktail magic unfolds in a profound yet personal way. Instantly the house lights soften. A cacophony of curiously muddled voices rises and falls in palpable anticipation of what comes next. In a comfy blend of separate yet united, the bar and restaurant deserve their own spotlights. The menus evolve constantly. Angelita's wine list can reach five hundred bottles. The motif is as thoughtful, expansive, and provocative as the impeccable dishes with which it is paired. Oh, the food! So worthy of distinction, yet we will save it for another review. In the meantime, cherish a seat at the bar. It offers the most captivating view in the house: front-row access to the choreography behind the counter. For it is here where libation artists distill genius from wildly enchanting ingredients. Rather than relying on commercial bottles, Angelita cures and concocts its own spirits and infusions. Many elements are harvested from the family farm. They are rendered, blended, mixed, and tuned in exacting ways as much akin to science labs as gourmet kitchens. Fresh-milled breadworks, savory almonds, fragrant herbs, just-pulled vegetables, and hypnotic botanicals are part of the alchemy. Nothing is off limits if it adds texture, depth, or aroma. The room reinforces this point. Angelita's bar is assembled with a mad scientist's mindset: shelves lined with labeled jars of organic infusions; stainless-steel work surfaces burnished to a mirror-sheen; precision tools that appear to be of surgical grade; and beakers with rubber tubing. And then there is the centerpiece: a rotary evaporator, or "Rotovap", replete with condenser and flask. It is a serious instrument of culinary crafting that signals exactly what Angelita intends: Precision Perfection. The device allows distillation under vacuum at very low temperatures. In practice, this means Angelita can capture and condense fragile aromatics. Citrus peel. Basil. Rustic spices. Floral notes. All without cooking them into acidic bitterness or diluted dullness. What ends up in the glass is absolutely clean, vivid, and true to the original ingredients. Think: flavor in hi-def. Such standards carry through to presentation. The bar serves no ice in any of its drinks. Rather, cocktails arrive in exquisitely chilled glassware to avoid watering-down their preciously procured ingredients. Everything is measured on a digital scale, not rushed through casual pours and bar jiggers. Each offering is intentional. Deliberate. Repeatable. Yet nothing feels clinical because the result is raw and primal pleasure. After the first sip an all-sensory message is received loud and clear: 'This isn't an ordinary cocktail bar.' Angelita's drinks are born on the family farm, expertly developed in a working lab, and refined out in the open for all to witness and savor. Come ready to be mesmerized. Techniques will marvel. Flavors will enchant. Senses will exalt. At Angelita, craft meets captivation as mixologists explain the science that elevates liquid to Life.

When I found out I was coming to Madrid I had to book a table. First things first, my suggestion is book way in advance. This place fills up fast. My friend and I waited too long and the only seating we could get was at 11:15 PM. No big deal though there's plenty of places you can get a light snack in the surrounding area while exploring the city. Walking in, the architecture immediately hits you. Low ceilings, gorgeous old brick, tight dining rooms, it really feels like you stepped back in time. The whole atmosphere is elevated without being stiff. Staff was super friendly and made the experience feel smooth from start to finish. There's also apprently a really nice wine cellar at the bottom I overheard other patrons bragging about. Food wise, I will keep it real, it was good, just not my favorite meal in Madrid. The sangria was solid, definitely one of my highlights. The croquettes were fire. Crispy, creamy, exactly what you want. My friend's seafood casserole was actually really good too, I lowkey wish I went that route. Now the misses. The sautéed vegetables with Iberian ham didn't do it for me. The veggies needed seasoning bad, and the ham leaned a little too salty, so together it just felt off. The suckling pig, the signature dish, was good, but I was not blown away. If I find myself returning here, I would explore other options. After dinner, there was a little show and they let you keep a souvenir menu, which was a nice touch and made the night feel more memorable. Overall I had a solid 3.5 star experience rounded up to 4. Sobrino de Botín is history, it is iconic, and it is worth saying you have been. Just do not expect it to be the best meal of your trip. Hit Botín, soak it in, then go explore the rest of Madrid's food scene, because that is where things really start to shine.

We hadn't planned on eating there but decided to drop in. The interior is cozy and inviting, while outdoor seating is available if you prefer to dine al fresco (though it can get a bit windy outside). In fact, our water glass toppled over with one gust of wind. Reservations are recommended, as the place seems popular. The menu features a wide variety of traditional Spanish dishes, and everything we tried was delicious. Our T-bone steak arrived perfectly cooked, served with grilled peppers and sliced golden potatoes, it was simple, flavorful, and satisfying. The squid was also very good, but the standout dish was the asparagus in tempura with almond mayonnaise. Perfectly fried and incredibly light, it was absolutely outstanding. Another highlight was the homemade Iberian ham croquettes served with candied pepper sauce which were creamy and rich on the inside with a delicate crisp on the outside and a wonderful balance of flavor. To accompany the meal, we enjoyed a few glasses of Rioja Azpilicueta Crianza (Tempranillo, Graciano, and Mazuelo, 12 months aging, 2021). It was a bit on the dry side, but helped take the edge off the chilly wind while we sat outside enjoying a late lunch. The staff were friendly and accommodating, even indulging my enthusiasm for photographing the slicing of the Iberian ham. All in all, La Mi Venta delivered a fantastic, authentic Spanish dining experience with great food, good wine, and welcoming service in a charming setting. Definitely worth a visit if you're in Madrid.
