Charming proprietor, friendly ambiance. Sumptuous vegetarian options. Don’t miss the cassava, unlike anything I’ve had before.

The best food we had in Madrid. Everything was so fresh and beautifully seasoned. It was a perfect mix of authentic Spanish food with surprising modern ingredients. Accommodating to dietary requirements. Brilliant value for money, we could not recommend it enough.

This was one of the best dinners of our trip!!! And the guy was super friendly and nice, and accommodating to our big group of 8 even tho it was a small place. We had the octopus, Havana beef, Iberian pork (not pictured), pink tomato + burrata, eggplant Parmesan, fried mushroom with truffle sauce, roasted veg (not pictured), jamon (not pictured), and tinto de verano. Everything was good 🥹 Only comment is that the place was a bit dark!

This place is such a hidden gem! The vibe is extremely cozy and romantic and the food is amazing. The owner does everything himself and is so friendly. We basically told him to give us what he recommended and he surely did not disappoint. Everything was fairly priced as well. Definitely worth asking what the specials of the day are. Such a nice place that I almost want to keep it a secret, but can’t help wanting to support such a talented and hardworking man! Would love to return <3

Small place, very cozy. The waiter serves you with a smile and is super friendly. The pulpo was amazing - perfectly cooked! We loved the homemade croquettas too. The veggies were good. Good portions.

Situated next to the Bronx sex shop this is an unexpected hidden gem. We were visiting Madrid on a long weekend and went to various restaurants/ bars and this was by far our favourite. The food is tremendous and the wine at 3/3.5 euro a glass was surprisingly good and the staff were friendly and polite. We liked it so much we eat here twice. Our recommendations are the Pork tenderloin marinated in orange with a onion chutney, the plantain mini tarts with shredded beef and the salmon sashimi. Delicious food and v good value.

Probably one of the best tapas places in Madrid, and we ate at plenty. The service was really friendly and welcoming and the food is top quality. The owner is very friendly and has clearly made a lot of effort to make this place special.
