Perfect food and service!
9.5
We visited this restaurant based on our hotel's recommendation and the fact that one could have dinner before 8:30 PM. Food was excellent as was the service, including the sommelier's attention and help. Great menu that offers a good selection of fish and paella entrees.

The food is fantastic and the service is also very good. We visited this restaurant a few times over the years and it stayed really good and we were every time really happy. We'll come back the next time we come to madrid. We ordered from ox tail to paellas and everyone was really happy.
6.0
Mediocre experience. The first 3 menu items (not specials but standards) we tried to order? They were out. I was the last to order and felt like asking “can you tell me what you do have?”. I was “up sold” on my Vermut aperitif but not impressed. The atmosphere is set to be upscale, but I would look around if you want a fine dining experience.

Beyond our expectations for new year eve dinner! Wow everything was great! Thank you for the best experience!

It was the most formal dining we did on this trip. Several different waiters. The food was another story. Our paella seafood special was a pan with rice and a scarce amount of seafood that was horribly overcooked. The local wine we had was nice. The people next to us had a worse experience as their paella was forgotten and they never seemed to get their drinks. Overall it reeks of a tourist restaurant with a fine china front.

Our hotel concierge recommended this place for seafood and we are thankful! We’ve ordered paella and it was very tasty. We thought the fried calamari were fresh and delicious.

The service was awful , the food was not as expected , bad experience.
6.5
Great ambiance and seafood, but that wasn’t enough to make up for the terrible service from wait staff to the manager. We had to ask our server several times for water refills and drinks and no one seems to enjoy working there. It’s too bad because the food was good but the experience is not worth it to go back.

They have english menu too.

Thoroughly enjoyable experience from start to finish. Gazpacho was delicious as was the Lubina a La Sal. Washed it all down with perfectly chilled bottle of Albariño. Staff were helpful and courteous. What’s not to like? 10/10

Excellent service staff and the Seafood Paella was awsome.
