“ We had lasagna bolognese and pizza with ham on it. Both were delicious. This restaurant is small but has excellent food and service. There is seating inside and al fresco, but because it is small and to the side of Mercado de San Miguel it feels like a hidden gem. Definitely worth a visit! ”
“ Apart from canned white asparagus, food was good. Grilled turbot was very nice even if the presentation and sides were robust. Nice restaurant, needs a reservation. ”
“ Great service. Came without reservation and they accommodated. Food presentation was excellent. Had the lobster risotto which is their house special. It tasted good but a little hard/undercooked for my preference. However for paella here traditionally its like that. The 4 star is because cleaning out the lobster was very difficult - especially in a nice restaurant its not very comfortable to dig in with your hands with a table that has white table cloths. I think its better that its fully cleaned out since its pretty much a fine dining resto to make the experience much easier. The artichoke appetiser was also a generous portion and was cooked simply, yet delicious. ”
“ This is second location we have visited. Food is simply amazing! You must try the artichoke… no idea how they make it but it’s melting in your month! The best I have tried in my life! You should try other dishes as well, the verity of main courses and started will make you wanting to come back. One of the best places to eat in Madrid! ”
“ Ambiente very quiet and gorgeous. Everything fresh and tasty -Big portions! Service really caring, also open to change main dishes for allergetics. Will recommend to everyone! ”
“ Nice tavern focused on Vasce cuisine located beside San Michelle food Mercado. Service is polite and fast and prices fair. Risotto with mushrooms and Iberico pork really tasteful. ”
“ Sangria - very good Bread - meh. hard and cold, I guess I'm spoiled with fresh warm bread. Mushroom - The cheese (seems like blue cheese kinda cheese) overwhelmed and couldn't taste any mushroom. Croquettes - We ordered the ham and cheese and it was delicious. Lobster rice - Good lobster flavor but bit on the salty side. ”
