    Stopped by after enjoying the many rooms of the Royal Palace. The vibe was pretty relaxed. The servers were all over it, asking if we need something else and making sure we didn't need for anything. The food was great. They had a menu that explained what each dish was, and between the menu and Yelp!, I wanted to try it all. I mean, it's a tourist spot with great location and access to traffic, but it knows it and isn't pretentious about it. What is nice is they have familiar and local flavors to try. We stuck to simple for this first visit. Cheese croquettes, patatas bravas, and fries with fried egg and Iberian ham (huevos estrellados). It was all good, but I wanted to try the calamari and the clams. My daughter devoured her smash burger slider... then we ordered another patatas bravas. The Estrella beer is good, i will have the .6L size next time. Great vibe, no pressure, and all the time that you want to try the tapas. Plenty of room inside... it was a pleasant experience.

    Cute restaurant to get tapas with friends! You are definitely paying for the ambiance but the food is decent as well!! The shrimp were a favorite.

    Came here to try it out as it had a nice vibe that called my attention. To get a table didn't took long even though it was full and a line waiting to get a table as well. The food was fantastic, tried a few tapas. The best part for me was the sangria, specially since that day it was hot, for some reason it felt refreshing. The music was amazing for the ambiance it has, the service was good. The waitress was always checking if we needed anything or sangria refills. A good place to check out and try tapas.

    Touristy chain in a convenient spot if you just want quick food and to sit for a moment. Service was good and prices are fine for the area. Overall if you want better tapas go somewhere else but this is good in a pinch or just for some drinks!

    This place is fantastic! A little pricier for tapas but worth every euro! The decor is gorgeous, very upscale and trendy. My friends and I enjoyed some really great dishes, drinks and dessert. The staff here was super friendly and sweet. I had some of the best seafood I've ever had in my life here. So clean and fresh! I will definitely be back to try more dishes!

    This was the first dinner I had in Madrid. This was also my last dinner before I left Spain. My best friend loves this place and now I love this place. Spain is known for their tapas and this place is amazing . I am obsessed with each and every dish. The dessert is to die for. I have not had a better chocolate dessert than the chocolate coolant. I can truly tell you that this was the best glass of Sangria I've ever had in my life. I cannot wait to return to Madrid and this will definitely be my first stop.

    Best place for " le aperitivo" which in Spain, is basically like a happy hour. They have great tapas to choose from. My face is the steak tar tar bocadillo with una caña de estrella damn. Right in the heart of the gran via, this is the best place to grab a beer and tapas with friends!

    Was still on California time, and since most restaurants aren't open until late, we saw this place while walking around and decided to feed our hunger with some tapas. They're pretty cheap for a reason, as items don't have the best and freshest ingredients. Not typical spanish tapas either, like an almond crusted shrimp with tons of mayo, yuck! The best one was the tortilla, but hard to go wrong with eggs and potatoes.

    They have a lot of plates on their menu but when we were ordering, they said they didn't have a lot like the octopus and mussels which we really wanted to try. The sangria was a little too sweet. The paella was overcooked and dry. But the salad and the chili were super good. It's easy to find because it's on the main street, Gran Via, right by McDonalds. The tables here like most restaurants in Spain are small and very close together. It was overall an average experience.

So glad that we found it because the everything was amazing. A small coffee & dessert shop that's very unique with an urban but home-like feeling. The owner was there to open and speaks English so that really made it comfortable for us to select what to eat. She gave us her recommendations on what to try being that you couldn't visually see what was inside most of the pastry items and the menu was in Spanish. I assume that it isn't a dog friendly venue...one of the patrons sat their dog outside while they enjoyed coffee. Their selections of pastries are endless; From cakes, to donuts, tarts, quiches, meat pies, meat empanadas, etc. I'm sad that I didn't try any of the sweets, but I did order the smoked salmon & queso cream cheese sandwhich, along with their puff pastry of spinach (my favorite) & beef & chicken empanadas. Light & small but shareable as my girlfriend and I enjoyed every last bite & toasted with a cup of coffee!
