9.5/10Great place with good tapas and sangria. We sat outside, the tables were in a slope which was okay but not great. Otherwise the staff was pretty quick and nice, but the main takeaway is that the food was really good.

10/10We had an amazing time here. The service and food were amazing. It offers couzine from the south of Spain and does not disappoint. Delicious chicharon and vermouth from the local region in the south. Definitely something to try.

10/10Great food, very kind waitress and a cool place to eat. The food was just perfect, flavorful and generous. The waitress gave amazing advice about what to eat, the place is a little small but comfortable. Would surely eat again here if our stay wasn't over.

9.5/10Locals only in the place, we were there for New Years Eve (we had a reservation) and there were 20 people waiting outside for a seat. Don't let the small interior or stool seating fool you, this is the read deal for tapas and other traditional foods. The owner was going like a madman but still made an effort chat with everyone, including us with our limited Spanish (he speaks decent English, better than our Spanish!). The whole place is family run and you can tell they all take pride in what they do. Would dine again in a second.

9.5/10We were there for dinner on 31 December. It's important to know the place is tiny so it was a lite tight for our group (12 people). But everything else was very nice. The food was excellent and Chema and his team did everything to please their customers. I would definitely visit again!

8.5/10Charming evening for us with the opportunity to enjoy the atmosphere and enjoy special dishes. The pork crackling was outstanding, the bellota ham was okay but a little dry. As main dishes the stuffed aubergine, octopus with black olive mayonnaise and the oxtail were excellent. A super evening. Thanks to the staff.

10/10Do not judge a restaurant by how many people are in it and how big it is. The food was delicious! This quaint place was perfect for our last night in Madrid. We did the octopus and the beef, the mussels and chicken strips.
