    We had a lovely dinner last night. The staff and, we believe, the owner were very friendly and helpful. We had the sticky ribs and chicken with coconut rice for dinner and an amazing Indian egg roll for an appetizer. Hughly recommend!

    This little restaurant was a fabulous find!!! Very quiet, wonderful service and really fabulous food! We ordered several starters to split, all were excellent and then shared two main entrees per the suggestion of our waiter. We had excellent recommendations on choices and very honestly will recommend this spot to others. It’s an unknown gem! Thanks for a lovely evening El Social!

    Not bad. The food was a little blend to my taste but no salt or pepper on the table. Service was good.

    A very pleasant experience overall. The food was very tasty, the arancinis were just incredible. Waiters were very professional, kind and efficient. We expected the premises to be in better condition, given the average price. The place could do with a little refurbishment. Particular attention should also be paid to the cleanliness of the toilets, which were not great when we came.

    Nice ambience and good vibe. The service was good. The appetizers guacamole and Satay chicken were delicious. The main course entrees were just mediocre. The chicken & salmon dishes were served cold and had to be reheated. We were a bit disappointed as the reviews were much better than our experience!

    We had delicious dishes, price/quality is fantastic and staff is very friendly. You’ll have to try it! And rest assured, the portions are quite large. Ps: Only the setting might be improved, we were sitting in the same side of the table to make place for the service.. might be improved by putting paints or something else in front of us instead of sitting to a white wal.

    Food was generally quite good. Service was not at all warm - felt like we were in a tourist trap. Restaurant is not to the same standard as google and other ratings would suggest. No lock on mens washroom door, lights going up the stairs hanging loose, etc.

    The space is nice and the appetizers were delicious but we were a bit dissapointed by the main course. It was ok but just ok, nothing more. The wine list is very nice and the staff polite.

    Very interesting (strange, dated interior reminding you f a 1970 hospital) ambiance. Food excellent. Overall the ambiance contributes to the experience after all

    The service is what really caught my heart. Both the waiters that night were very friendly & they definitely knew how to conversate. I’ve been eyeing on their menu since I was still in Hong Kong & I loved every dish, especially the starter that was recommended and their specials that day. If I were to come back to Madrid, I’d definitely would visit this restaurant again. Great Job!
