A great first meal in Spain! The food was fantastic, and service was even better. Thanks to our…read moreserver, Santiago, who let us shave the ham, gave us a complimentary sorbet drink, and didn't make fun of us when we ordered way too much food, hahah! We don't speak Spanish, but he helped us out with Google Translate and made us feel welcome. Loved that the menu had English titles, very helpful. Overall, I felt like there was a warm atmosphere here. We got eggplant sticks with honey, artichoke with salty ham, and croquettes. Not a bad bite to be found. I can't even pick a favorite; everything was outstanding. Definitely recommend this restaurant! We paid about $65 for everything, including what's mentioned above plus a glass of wine, bread, and olives.

They have great lunch specials for around 12 EUR which gets you Salad, a big piece of Steak, friend potatoes and some red wine... The quality of the food is top-notch for the pricing and the casual atmosphere allows you to chomp down proper without worrying about etiquette! Highly recommended if you want to get off the beaten path!

Llegamos a este restaurante impulsados por todas las recomendaciones tanto de YouTube como de…read moreamigos. La verdad no está mal si comparas calidad - precio. Para dos personas te incluye la mesa buffet, carne (all you can eat) no top of the line, una botella de vino, dos empanadas, café y postre para dos personas por un poco menos de 70 euros en fin de semana pienso que es OK. Ahhh.... Pero el flan espectacular lo que quizás le falte en carne les sobra en el flan. Muy bueno!!!!!!!

On our 2nd to last night on Madrid, we found ourselves at the Knife. Why did we wait so long???…read more Everything about the place was wonderful. We arrived early (8:30) and had the place mostly to ourselves. The cold bar is delicious, with lots of choices of salads, fruits, olives, all kinds of good stuff. But don't fill up there (unless you're a vegetarian) because MEAT is the word here! (OK, actually, it's carne, but you get the idea.) Everything we had from the chefs was delicious. Black sausage, Argentinian sausage, steak, chicken wrapped in bacon, even the grilled veggies were amazing. The prix fix is very reasonable. My only complaint was that we didn't know we could order tinto verano instead of bottled wine. That would have been better (the wine was good, but it was hot, and we could have used something lighter.) But I won't take points for that. All told, the Knife was perfect! 5 smokey grilled stars!

Went here for our 1st dining experience in Spain. Though we were a bit early for Spaniard timing on…read moredinner, they were incredibly attentive and welcoming. Food and drinks were amazing and we couldn't believe how affordable. The grill master shows up around 8pm to begin the true show of Spanish sausage and grilled meats on a wood fired grill as patrons watch; he is like a barista, entertaining and conversing with patrons as he does his magic. Our server could not have been more welcoming to us and giving us true Spanish hospitality. Highly recommend.

The free bread was quite good which often lets you know early that you're in for a good meal, and this was certainly true here. The steak was cooked perfectly and the frites were an excellent companion. The location was convenient to where we were spending the evening on the main plaza and after dinner there were a lot of options for gelato or shopping right around us.

I wanted to like this place, and maybe I just ordered the wrong thing, but the steak I received was…read morepretty bad. Everything else was fine. There is a set menu for EUR 12 which includes some skirt steak and some other items and is basically a complete meal for an excellent price. Not high quality, but good value. That is what most reviewers seem to have ordered and been happy with. I foolishly ordered their most expensive steak (black angus "top Argentinian", which I assume to be sirloin but seems like ribeye).). Asked for medium rare. Also got a chorizo (good) and some iberico ham (good, but this is Spain...). My steak www two pieces, and basically different thicknesses, which is a bad sign. The smaller piece was cooked medium to a bit more, and was thin. Was fine, not amazing. The larger piece was a perfect combination of cold, basically rare~, and horribly trimmed with silverskin throughout. I was tempted to ask for it to be cooked more but once I realized how bad a cut it was I didn't bother. I ate about half of it and paid and left, If you go, just get the menu. Don't bother with anything higher end.

Went there for late (11 is late?) night drinks with friends, ordered the usual gin and tonic (bombay) and there were no free chips and or olives, but hey this wasnt your regular bar (I guess?). Price wise for a medio gin tonic, well, okay but I think I'll just order the big one instead next time. The stars are more for the service and ambiance for a chill night out, nothing too loud or crowded. I still want to come to try the supposedly famous argentinian steak, but...is it still argentinian? Veremos.
