"It is hard to find a better restaurant than this for La Mancha cuisine in the Spanish capital, where the self-styled “cocina de monte bajo” (which literally means “scrubland cuisine”) is shown due respect and transformed into a gourmet experience. Located in the heart of the city’s Salamanca district, it offers different dining options, ranging from tapas and “raciones” (the Iberian ham croquettes are an absolute must) at the bar to more gastronomic fare in the dining room in the semi-basement. Chef Miguel Carretero showcases his full personality here, bringing the flavours of La Mancha to the Spanish capital through seasonal dishes in which game is ever present (roast loin of venison, duck royale, stuffed quail “a lo Tío Lucas”, pigeon soup etc) and which is particularly well expressed in his escabeches. The “media ración”-style à la carte is the perfect option to create your own personalised meal, and is complemented by the impressive Monte Bajo tasting menu." - Michelin Inspector

I had such a great dinner here. This was the 3rd and last tasting dinner I did on my 3rd night in Madrid. They made me wait at the bar(ish) area upstairs after I checked in for my reservation. I was then led downstairs to the main part of the restaurant. In my opinion, I got the best seat in the house because they put me at the table directly facing the set up area so I got to watch the guys do work all night. I once again did the wine pairing. It was 10 plates of some of the tastiest dishes I’ve ever eaten. Their wine bottles were huge. I always perked up when the guy would come over to pour me a serving by using a chingadera to scoop up a glass worth. The wines I was given were all so tasty. They paired perfectly with every dish I was given. It was all so good So good that every plate that got dropped off at my table went back clean. I ate it all Service was good. There was always someone around if you needed anything.

Fantastic dinner. There are two restaurants, street-level is nice casual and the fine-dining(this review) is one step down. The food is very high quality and creative. Great wines and sommelier. The boletus bonus dessert at the end was awesome!

Santerra offers wonderfully unique food, with standout game dishes that are a must-try. However, the service could use a bit of tweaking, the “glass” of wine felt more like a tasting pour, and the wait between courses was longer than expected. That said, the flavors and creativity in the dishes made it worth the visit!

Fantastic place! Service at an outstanding level. Very friendly and knowledgeable, they look after the guests from the first second! Food brilliant. Croquettes top! The deer is one of the best dishes I have ever had. I think all the dishes on the menu are great!

Chef was playing on the edge with the seasoning. Very unique dishes, especially enjoyed the dried grape leaves. The dessert needs an option with more acidity to cut out the richness from the mains. Overall - 8/10

Amazing dining experience in a unique and cool restaurant. While everything was delectable, the croquettes and the venison really took the spotlight - they shouldn’t be missed. The atmosphere was also intimate and very pleasing. Would return whenever I’m in Madrid

Really fantastic dining experience. We did the tasting menu and it was fantastic food, extremely creative and thematic. I would also like to highlight the service which was exceptional. We had the pleasure of having Gareth as our server and he was attentive and made excellent wine suggestions for each pairing. Would give my highest recommendation for anyone in Madrid looking for a fun and unique dining experience!

A very nice experience. We were a party of 2 and we ordered the tasting menu and long wine pairing. The food - Perfection. Amazing use of the local ingredients and taste, this was very impressive. The wine was nicely presented and paired. Service - Very polite staff, well-spoken in english and also great coordination when serving dishes and removing plates. Only once did they prematurely ask if we were done eating, but this did not affect our experience at all. The atmosphere - Very subtle, intimate and nice. Not a large place, and nicely decorated which makes the atmosphere very enjoyable and intimate. Overall - Will definitely visit Santerra again in the future. The experience matches the expectation and for the amount you pay, this is a very good offer.
