Prawns...oh my
Peter C.

(NOTE: not too many pictures taken as the food was really distracting) They earned every point on that Micheline star! MommaK, Glammom and I had an amazingly wonderful time at TriCiclo. We found it unexpectedly while happily wandering through Madrid. Immediately we made a reservation. This place took us promptly, had a wonderful wine list and a smaller menu (2 pages) - I love this as this means they spend more time on each dish. MommaK and I each had the chefs 6 course tasting menu - no idea what we'd get (like Omikase) - well oo wa! Cabbage wrapped beef, prawns wrapped in a mint leaf, just to name a few! The mix and matches were well thought out and the taste was astounding! Glammom had ceviche and steak tartar perfectly seasoned. This was heaven! The room was nicely decorated and the staff well trained. The sound track was a bit weird with something like Muzak in the background - but who cares?! Worth it, worth it, WORTH IT! Go you fools!

Madrid is known for exceptional food and this spot - a Michellin Bib Gourmand was beyond expectation! This is an exceptional restaurant with atmosphere, service and excellent cuisine. The main dining area feels like a cave with access to nature. Rustic and charming it compliments the dishes. The oxtail and potato special starter was amazing. Next on our list was oysters from France both grilled and marinaded. We chose wine by the glass to meet each dish. Cava with oysters. Rose with oxtail and then leeks and mushrooms. The tinto vino for the rest. I would encourage creating your own tasting menu as we did. Go from tapas dishes to veggies and finish with a meat. I love that the portions included half plate options. It made the tasting light and fun! Dessert is not to be missed. And I don't want to forget the amazing farm fresh bread and smoked butter!

Great michelin restaurant with creative & fusion food. Service is exceptional with very friendly staff. I highly recommend this restaurant to all.

Everything is great especially service. We went in early at their opening hour without reservations. The restaurant filled up quickly, but it was a great experience. I recommend if you visit Madrid

Todo estuvo excelente. Una amiga me recomendó este lugar ya que cuando visito Madrid para su luna de miel comieron allí y no me puede ir sin probar. La comida y todos los platillos con muy buen sabor! Mi esposo venía con restricciones dietéticas muy estrictas y nos apoyaran súper bien. El servicio, lo que se puede esperar de un restaurante Michelin, súper atentos y cálidos! El sumiller tuvo recomendaciones increíbles al igual que el mesero. Me encantó el ambiente del lugar y se lo recomendaría a todos los que quieran una comida llena de sabores únicos

A modern tapas restaurant. We walked in for a late lunch without reservations and was able to get seated without an issue. Lucky us! All the staff were attentive, patient and kind. Our waiter patiently and explained what each dish was and if there was a language barrier, he grabbed someone who can explain to us in English. Presentation was a 10/10 and all the flavors worked well together. We only ordered two raw tapas, but after trying the oyster and prawns, I wished we had also ordered the ceviche dishes - it was our fav. I would come back solely just for the bread and olive oil lol, it was that good! This will be on our recommendation list for our friends visiting Madrid.

Cerviche- outstanding. Do NOT miss this dish

Outstanding. From the service to each and every small plate we tried everything was perfection. Definitely our best meal in Madrid and perhaps one of the best restaurants I'v been to anywhere. You can decide what portion size you prefer to order for each menu item ( small, medium or large). We decided to get the smallest portion of each item so that we could sample more of a variety of items. The meal came with complementary homemade bread and special olive oil and smoked butter ( worth the splurge). There was then a complementary appetizer which included a small cracker with foie gras as well as a strawberry flavored tomato which was amazing. We then ordered the steak tartar, cerviche , tuna tartar with avocado , sashimi ( this is no ordinary sashimi and the presentation was absolutely gorgeous), as well as a tomato/ burrata/ anchovy salad. Every single one was flavorful, unique and melt-in - your mouth memorable. If you are a foodie don't pass this restaurant up. Fantastic!

Amazing service and food. We got the 9 course and 2 dessert entourage which was not to disappoint. This Michelin rated restaurant was superb from display to taste to service. Tucked in its quaint from the outside and more expensive than your typical places in Madrid but worth every euro. They serve bread selections throughout the course and of course you must choose a wine to go with your meal bc Spain duh. Even your best wine won't run you more than $50 euros. Europe is strange in that any tipping at all is very unexpected but we def tipped well bc we showed up an hour before their 11pm late curfew and then of course ended up ordering the whole farm but they were so gracious in allowing us to enjoy and even provided an extra after dinner liquor sipper. Check the pics for some mouth wAtering goodness

Ridiculously expensive: 2€/piece of rigatoni! 2€/asparagus! 7€/canelonni

I tend to do a lot of planning before any trip, and a good portion of that planning is where we're going to eat, so I tend to not make many mistakes, but TriCiclo was one of them. It's not that the food isn't very well prepared and tasty, it's just that it is a ragingly horrible value, and I'm really value-oriented in my reviews (the whole QPR - "quality/price ratio). What I liked: the food was very good, and the wines were decent values (in fact a glass of TRUS (2012 Crianza) I really enjoyed for about 4euro I found in the store a day later for 18E per bottle, so the wines were actually cheaper by the glass here than at retail!). For this reason (value of the wines), I'm giving TriCiclo a 3, and not a 2. On to the food: we ordered half portions of several items, as we had the previous night at nearby Vinoteca Moratin (which I highly recommend), in order to sample as much of the menu as possible. But what we got was shocking: a 16E half portion of rigatoni consisted of EIGHT pieces of the pasta - that's 2E per noodle!! Another pasta special was similarly hilarious in it's small size. An entire portion of Ceviche could have fit inside an espresso cup, and on and on. Small portions are great when you are enjoying a 10-course meal, but when you paying between 10-20 euros for each course, it's a shocker. TripAdvisor put TriCiclo several hundred spots down on the "best restaurants" list for Madrid, and I have to agree (and should have heeded that result in making my plans). I also have to agree with TripAdvisor putting neighboring "Vinoteca Moratin" in the top ten. The 2 restaurants are diametric opposites measured in terms of value, and I urge you to reserve at the former if your time in Madrid is limited.

Burrata deliciousness at Triciclo
Martha P.

This is my second visit to Triciclo. The ambiance, decor, menu design, execution of the dishes, flavors and service are impecable. The menu changes with available ingredients - and all their dishes are exquisitely prepared. This time, we ordered their signature shrimp appetizer, a burrata salad, a crunchy vegetable pot with a poached egg placed in the center of the broth, the cochinillo, lobster in red curry sauce (WOW!). I am still trying to figure out what dish was my favorite. No time to photograph desserts though, both were 'Gone in 60 Seconds'. I will be back - every time I return to Madrid - for sure!

Free appetizer. Pate, anchovie and tomato
Jamie A.

This was by far the best restaurant we tried in Madrid. Great food. Amazing wines. And the service was phenomenal. If I ever go back to Madrid, it will be on my list for sure. Highly recommend! Also got the oxtail cannelloni, didn't take a pic cause we ate it too fast. It was the best meal we ordered.

Cod
Selina C.

Triciclo was highly recommended and so I dropped by for dinner. I couldn't decide what to get and so I opted for the 6 course tasting menu + one dessert (50€). The first course was a Prawn dish. The prawn was sweet and crisp; wrapped in a shiso leaf and then dipped in a sauce added some herby tangy flavours. Quite good but extremely small to be considered a course. The next dish was a creamy zesty spicy shrimp with crunchy nuts on the side. This was good but again, I found the portion to be quite small - the plate was mainly filled with sauce. The 3rd course was a pork belly with octopus. The octopus was nicely grilled and flavoured and the pork was tender and had a slightly spicy bbq flavoured sauce. The salad was tangy with a little spice. The Cod was light, flakey and moist with a crisp skin. It paired well with the sweet peas. The Tartare with chips was my favorite dish. Acorn fed Iberian pork tartare has the most amazing buttery & nutty taste and was incredibly creamy with the raw egg. The crispy flat bead and chips were well seasoned and not too oily. The Wild Rabbit Callaloni with parmesan cheese was really rich and creamy - probably a little TOO rich with the addition of the cheese. The rabbit was juicy but I disliked the texture since it was ground up to fit into the canaloni. For dessert, I had the Brownie with house-made olive ice cream. This was actually quite good. The brownie was not too sweet and quite airy - probably due to the amount of walnuts in it. The ice cream was more like whipped cream and tasted like olive oil rather than olives. There was a nice crunchy base which had a good amount of walnuts in it. Overall, I found the experience to be underwhelming. Given that it was a tasting menu, I usually expect courses to be explained to me but some courses were just set down on the table. The food itself was good but not spectacular and portions were fairly small. Despite this, it still seems to be a fairly popular and I saw many walk ins who were turned away. If coming I would recommend to just get the ibérico tartare and brownie and forgo the tasting menu.

The steak tartare
Patricia M.

I was wandering through the neighborhood, finding my way back to my hotel, when Google Maps brought me to the doorstep of this gastropub. It's very popular here and I had decided to forego it as some reviews said the service was a bit on the rude side. Not being fluent in Spanish, I assumed I would just infuriate them. But the menu was enticing and the staff was very welcoming when I stepped inside. It was midday so not crowded. I had three small plates. I knew I wanted to try the steak tartare, so the waiter recommended a prawn with shisho and miso to start. It was beautifully serviced atop green leaves (Thai basil, mint, coriander, shaved green onion and what looked like a large geranium leaf) and a fresh and fruity sauce. It was gone in two bites, and was delicious! The second plate was a autumn vegetable selection, which on this day was assorted mushrooms. It was warm and hearty and the egg on top made it very rich and satisfying. The final course was the steak tartare. It was both lovely and delicious, well seasoned and served atop a crusty slice of toast. There was a nice hit of pepper at the end of every bite, which I really enjoyed I had a bottle of water and a mixed drink. I was looking for something fruity with vodka and ended up with a shot of Absolute, a cocktail glass with ice, and a small bottle of Minute Maid pineapple juice. It tasted much better than it sounds because, well, Vodka. Sadly, I observed an employee leave the bathroom without washing her hands. I hope not to have any ill effects, because I reported this to the waiter. This is why I gave it four stars instead of 5. My total bill was just under 36 Euros. Yes, it was on the expensive side, but I am on holiday and live in a place where food like this is nonexistent. The waiter and bartender were very friendly and the food tasted fantastic. #worthit

Alright, as I continue to try to catch up on all the review drafts I wrote while on vacation, at…read morethis point a whole 5 months ago... I know this one was exactly 5 months ago, because we touched down in Madrid on New Years Day, and this was the first place we ate (sounds like they've been here for aeons, so I doubt they've changed significantly since January.) My plan when we landed had been to just go down the list I'd made before we left of the best quick food places near our hotel, and eat at the first one that *was* open on New Years. I was worried there wouldn't be any and we'd be eating snacks from a convenience store, but nope! This place was indeed open. Open, and an absolute *madhouse*. I'm not sure if it was just because it was New Years, they were open, and much of the street wasn't, or if they're always this crazy - but it was a decent wait to order, to the point that it wasn't *entirely* clear whether we were even waiting correctly to order, since the line had kind of turned into a blob. Ordering and picking up our food was slightly nerve-wracking with how crowded it was, and there didn't really appear to be anywhere inside to sit, so we figured we'd sit outside at the tables... that we got immediately yelled at for sitting at, because it turns out all the tables right outside their entrance, actually belongs to their next door neighbor. So if I were ever back in Madrid, I *would* totally consider getting food here again, but I'd just probably plan on bringing it back to the hotel, vs what we ended up doing, finding the closest nearby flat non-private surface and eating it standing up in an alley. It definitely felt like a cool historic building inside, though, would've loved to dine in, if it hadn't been wall-to-wall packed, which it sounds like they might just always be. Food was great, though. We shared (this was plenty of food): An order of the cider-braised sausages - wonderful. Bonus, we learned from personal experience, you definitely want to get an order of these sausages, as not only are the sausages themselves delicious, the resulting au jus was also great for dipping the other items into.) An order of the ham and cheese croquettes - pretty tasty, though they did fall apart. Even tastier dipped in sausage juice, though then they *really* fell apart. Worth it though. Didn't look like you got a lot per order, but looks are deceiving - they were *rich*. An order of their famous mushrooms - I was a bit surprised, given the name literally means "the mushroom bar", that they only had a single mushroom dish, though given the sheer volume of that one item they clearly sell nightly, I can see why. Anyway, as a mushroom fan... they were certainly tasty mushrooms, perfectly cooked, but in my opinion, just a bit oversalted. Also had a glass of sangria for 2.50 euro - it is extremely good sangria, though the glass for 2.50 was pretty small. They also sell it for a better price by the larger container, but sadly, while I absolutely loved the European spirit of trusting people to be responsible after leaving with a to-go alcoholic beverage... they don't sell the *larger* sized sangria if you aren't dining in. Was too bad, as I absolutely would have loved twice as much of that sangria, but it clearly wasn't worth standing in a long ordering line a second time for it.

If you're looking for delicious mushrooms look no further! Beautiful old restaurant. Great service!read more

I absolutely adore this restaurant! I have visited it twice, and definitely next time I go to…read moreMadrid, I will visit it again. The restaurant is located in the heart of Madrid on a very cute street, and it is easy to find and walk there if you stay in the city center. The place is not very big - both times I went there for lunch, there were no tables available, so I had to sit at the bar; once I even had to wait about 7 minutes until one bar spot became free. The restaurant's design is simple, but pretty and lovely. Overall, the restaurant is in very good condition and was perfectly clean both times I visited. The only small downside is that the place is quite noisy, but it did not bother me. One of the best things about this place is the people who work there - both a guy and a lady at the bar were extremely nice and friendly to me; plus, both spoke very good English. They gave me recommendations on what to try, and I followed their advice. The restaurant's menu is not big, but it has all the most popular traditional Spanish dishes. Both times I ordered Rabo de Toro (a traditional Spanish stew), Fardos (squid rolls with bacon and squid ink mousse); and once I also tried croquetas de jamón (ham croquettes). The croquettes were tasty - I loved their flavor and soft texture. One portion includes 6 pieces, and they are quite big and filling. It was my first time trying Fardos (I ordered a 1/3 portion), and it was a great experience - the dish turned very delicious after the bartender mixed it for me. The squid was cooked very nicely, and combined with the fresh bacon and ink mousse, it tasted fantastic. Rabo de Toro (I ordered a 1/2 portion) was also my first time trying this dish, and I loved it - the stew was perfectly cooked, very soft and moist, with rich flavors, and it melted in my mouth. The restaurant also offers a wide variety of drinks, especially wines. I do not drink alcohol, so I was recommended to try grape juice - Mosto, which was extremely flavorful and tasted like fresh pressed grape juice, even though it came from a glass bottle. I loved that drink! Price-wise, all items on the menu seemed reasonable. I paid €8 for 6 ham croquettes, €12 for a half portion of Rabo de Toro, €8 for a 1/3 portion of Fardos, and €3 for one glass of grape juice. It is possible to have a nice full lunch here for around €22, which is reasonable for a restaurant in the heart of Madrid. The place accepts all major credit cards and Apple Pay, which is a big plus. If you visit this restaurant, I strongly recommend trying 1/3 or 2/3 portion of Fardos, a half portion of Rabo de Toro, and their grape juice Mosto - it's enough food to feel full and experience traditional Spanish flavors.

Casa Lucas is a MUST on the La Latina tapas tour! Casa Lucas serves tapas with a creative twist,…read moreand if I'd had more time (and wasn't a party of one), I would've tried so much more! I ordered the Oxtail (Rabo de Toro) and wooooow... easily one of the most tender and delicate pieces of meat I've EVER had. They serve it boneless, but I'm pretty sure if they would have provided a bone, it would've fallen right off. The whole place gives cozy tavern vibes with a rustic interior that feels perfectly Madrid. NOTE: the portions are a bit heavier than most spots. I hate to waste food, especially when it's as immaculate as the Oxtail, but if you're a party of one, you got to do what you go to do.

I've been visiting Malaespina for over a decade -- from my time living in Madrid to every trip back…read more-- and one thing has never changed: it's easily one of the best spots in Madrid for a no-frills, delicious tapas meal and amazing sangria. The quality of the food has remained consistent for the 10 years I've been visiting! Tucked away just off Sol, Malaespina is the epitome of a classic Madrid taverna. The inviting, unpretentious atmosphere, the cozy charm, the prices, the energy -- it's hard to capture it all in words. There's a certain magic at Malaespina. The tavern has been around for hundreds of years, and I often wonder what it was like a century ago. I'm always amazed that such a gem exists in the heart of Madrid, a city center filled with tourist traps. Malaespina draws both locals and tourists -- and for good reason. The food quality to price ratio is unbeatable. On our most recent visit, we had huevos estrellados, tortilla tapas, sangria, and espressos, and spent about $20 for the two of us. You really can't beat that! Here's hoping they stick around for many more years to come.

When we first sat down they gave us a welcome bruschetta and bread for free which were pretty decent portions. We then ordered our food and it was pretty good as well. We ordered their half chicken (pollo asado con patatas), sirloin steak, and Malaspina tosta. The portions were huge and we definitely over ordered. We thought they were more the size of tapas but each dish was a huge portion itself which definitely isn't a bad thing. The food tasted pretty good but I think it just lacked flavor occasionally. All the meat was cooked well and was very juicy, just could use a little more flavor. Otherwise everything was good. Solid 4 stars

This is a spot that feels like a little bar but is actually more like a casa with some food items…read more Here, they are big on pig and there are Iberico hams located on and around the bar for easy access. If you are vegan, coming here will only piss you off. In fact, a vegan in Madrid in general is ill-advised. The setting feels historic and rustic with exposed brick and stone that appears to be centuries old. They seem to make everything (both food and drink) behind that cramped bar which explains why most of their menu items are cold, pre-made, or easy to assemble from short lists of raw ingredients. This does not mean that anything is bad. It just means it is like producing charcuterie in a dorm room bar. A large number of items involve Iberico Ham and one of the barmen is constantly shaving off thin pieces for service. In fact the freebie snack they send out from the kitchen had some Iberico ham and Manchego cheese on it which was a really nice warm up of what to expect. Over the noonish lunch hour, I was the only tourist in the place surrounded by many locals that clearly know about this spot. I liked those odds for assuring me of a genuine authentic experience. It was an accurate predictor. I'm not the most experienced when it comes to true Spanish tapas but this seemed to be a very genuine depiction of what the locals look for in a rustic Iberico ham experience. And frankly, even if it wasn't I can't find anything to really complain about. It was a cool historic setting, there was ice-cold vermouth from a tap, and I spent an hour shoving local Morcilla (blood sausage) and Iberico pig parts into my pie hole for the better part of an hour. It was a great experience any way you choose to look at it.

The only thing was that it was a bit too sweet for me and I could taste the grains of sugar at the bottom of my glass. The paella finally came and it was a beautiful site to see !

It was a bit oily though when you scrape the bottom of the pan to get all the rice but it was delicious!!!

Someone recommended this place to my friend so we stopped by, and wow! Delicious…read more The Spanish "tortilla" was packed with flavor. The onions were jammy and so flavorful; they made this dish amazing. Definitely different from all the other tortillas I had. Grilled beef sweetbread bruschetta, with melted havarti cheese and chimichurri was rich but not filling, so I ordered the Red tuna tartar with wasabi pearls. My friend had the oxtail fajita- which she loved. All of the food we had here was great. I only wish we had been told that we could only get the dolce de leche volcano if we ordered it at the same time as our food. I was really looking forward to it. Instead we had the carrot and ginger pie (cake) with yogurt and the lemon pie. Of note, this place is small, so be prepared to wait. You can sit and eat at the bar.
