I've never seen this before in Spain but I witnessed the restaurant staff turn away a solicitor. Spain usually lets those guys in to harass and torture customers unendingly. The second thing is this place's tinto de verano is perfectly portioned and delicious. What a great place! Go and enjoy.

After a week of tapas in Madrid we were starting look for other food options besides tapas and…read morefinally decided on Italian at Bresca. It is a very small, functional, and modest restaurant in a very convenient location. Ratings were decent. For three of us we ordered 2x lazagna made with spinach pasta, and 1x Ham ravioli. Both were excellent. The lasagna was particularly enjoyable. Order an extra if you bring an American appetite.

Our server was good and helped gove some recommendations. There was a BOGO drink special on spritz, so we started with that and the gnocco fritto, which were like little puffed pita bread. I had the pistachio pesto pasta and hubs had carbonara. We both loved our pastas and couldn't say no to the pistachio tiramisu dessert. If you need a break from Spanish food while in Madrid, Bresca is a great choice.

We're vegetarian and found there were plenty of things for us. We ordered gnochhi with truffle sauce and spinach ravioli with a pink pesto sauce. Both were really good! Their sauces are on point. The truffle was my favorite. Creamy and flavorful. For dessert we got tiramisu which was delicious! Service was great and prices very reasonable.

LA Tagliatella, the Italian chain with many restaurants in Madrid…read more I just tried the one located on Calle Orense. The place was pretty big with a beautiful decoration. There were many tables set in the salon; you could also choose one of the outdoor tables, which I imagine to be a good option for a cool spring or fall day. The menu was in Italian which made it a bit hard to choose from. I only had one dish of ravioli which was just fine. However, I imagine you can get something like that in any other average Italian place anywhere. To sum up, the service, although not bad, could certainly be more friendly, helpful, and professional.

Trattoria Pulcinella is near the centre of Madrid but provides one of the best italian experiences…read morewe have had outside Italy. The location is heavily decorated (maybe too much?) with Italian themed art decor and other items. The interior of the restaurant has lots of tables but they are separated into smaller segments for better privacy and less noise. Service was top notch - prompt, friendly and flexible as we fitted in our toddler into the table too. Food was fresh and came rapidly. The menu is broad. There is a wide range of dishes, including many kinds of pasta and a broad range of Neopolitan style pizzas with a delicious thin crust. The actual food quality was uniformly great. All our dishes were delicious. My pizza was great. One of my wife's all-time favourite Italian dishes (Provola alla Pizzaiola - aka Cheese Soup) was available here. It is the first time we have found it outside Italy, and it was just as good as she remembered. I would strongly recommend this restaurant. We ended up here because I'd done advance planning and this was the Italian place I thought would be best, and neither of us were disappointed.

The hostess was kind enough to have us wait only 5 minutes and then place us in a table for two with an added chair to accommodate us. The service was very friendly. We received bread and olives on the house as we sat down. We ordered the pasta with salmon and vodka sauce so yummy, the lasagna and the tortelloni pasta filled with pumpkin. All the dishes were very good and we also ordered a bottle of wine. At the end for dessert we ordered a tiramisu and a cheesecake which were so so creamy and delicious. Once again at the end they gave us some limoncello on the house. Overall a very nice dining experience we will definitely be back!
