    The best raviolis I have had in my life. The tartare was out of this world. Simply amazing.

    The space is nice but got an attitude vibe early on. I said I was interested in tasting a wine and the server came and poured and I thought it was a heavy pour for a taste but it was the pour, no taste here. The wine was ok but super overpriced for what amounted to an average wine. The carbonara which is a specialty was not special. Disappointed since all our other meals in Madrid were so good with wonderful teams at each restaurant. This one was not so nice.

    Tucked away from a main street, this place is a must visit. Staff are excellent and place is great. Food is the best there is. Extremely well priced. Do not miss it. Would recommend for only adults as kids would probably not enjoy it.

    Everything was very good and served at just about the correct intervals. I had the tasting menu for 75€ (wine and water not included). The restaurant is Italian, but don't expect typical Italian dishes. Except for the pasta carbonara, the food is more fusion type. It is not a flaw, but for those who may expect more of an Italian type, you know what to expect. If anything on the more negative side, I would prefer one more salty dish and one less sweet dish (3 sweet things are too many for me, and they were a bit too sweet).

    Gioia was an amazing Italian restaurant. From the impeccable service to the ambience, to the presentation of each dish, to the outstanding flavors of the food, Gioia was a memorable and outstanding experience.

    Great dinner! My husband and I enjoyed the Vuela tasting menu - it was really delicious, very high quality ingredients and the variety of tastes was just perfect!!! We had also a bottle of Barolo (red wine) so to sum up we just had a lovely birthday celebration!

    Any time I come back to the restaurant is a pleasure and an explotion of tastes. it is not sn expensive restaurant according to the quality and freshness of the food. Waiters are excellent and the only thing I don't like is how it is decorated but it doesn't matter when the food is so good.

    E ven though the place is not so nice food is incredible and people (waiters and the chef) are so gentle and they are always alert to any of our necessities. The wine offer is very good and the quality, presentation and taste of food is very good. I am always recommending this restaurant because it deserves it.

    The place is quiet so you can talk without efforts. The waiters were very helpful and q the y are very kind without being heavy. Food is incredible, delicious, fresh and very original proposals. I would return several times so as to eat other options of the menu.

    We got the fix menu (for 55€, there is also a smaller and cheaper one) and had a great time. If you go by a la carta, don't miss the Pasta with truffle - it is the one that recommended also by the chef. Thank you for wonderful dinner.

    Excellent Italian food with a creative twist! Black truffles are added to some dishes, which really enhance the flavor of the food. We had the special menu, which was fabulous. The tagliolini with truffles and cheese was the star dish for us, as well as the poached egg with truffles. The tiramisu was excellent. Highly recommended!

    We dined here on a very hot evening in Madrid and were the only patrons in the restaurant until shortly before we left. The quietness must have been due to the weather because this restaurant deserves to be full every day of the week. Food was excellent and beautifully presented. Tasty amuse bouche on arrival. One of us had the spinach and ricotta ravioli to start followed by a fillet steak. The other a mixed salad followed by the ravioli The pasta is home made and was as good as it gets. Steak was beautifully cooked and artistically plated. Portions were ample. Check, including a bottle of Mafia di Puglia chardonnay was €100. Highly recommended.
