When we arrived at La Carmela, we were left to wait although we had a reservation. The place was packed with people and seems that the restaurant was overbooked. After 20mins waiting we left, afraid that to order and actually eat was also going to take long. Very disappointed as I had booked way in advance.

We had an absolutely wonderful experience at this restaurant! From the moment we walked in, the staff was incredibly welcoming, attentive, and genuinely kind. Their attention to detail and warm hospitality made us feel truly special. The food was simply outstanding—every dish was full of flavor and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, making our dining experience even more enjoyable. We left with big smiles, feeling completely satisfied and eager to return. Highly recommended for anyone looking for excellent food and top-notch service! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The service is awful. Seems that once you are at the table you will pay anyway, so nobody cares. Especially when you are alone, not the company. The fish was good, but tomato salad is just 5 pieces of pomato with 3 slices of tuna fish on. Definitely, all these aren't worth the money I paid. I do not recommend this place.

I ordered the €18 menu (starter, main course, dessert, and drinks). Starter: Tasteless paella with chicken pieces, mostly bones. Main course: Undercooked entrecôte, impossible to eat. I barely finished half. Dessert: Tiramisu, quite good. Wine: not bad. Service was fast but not friendly at all.

Cold tomato soup with smoked sardine worked well. Super crispy pork rinds. Great green olives. Cheesecake went well with sweet moscatel wine.

After paying the bill in cash with four €50 notes and one €20 note, the waiter returned three or four minutes later to inform us that €40 was missing. The manager then acted in bad faith by exchanging a €50 note for a €10 note. When we asked to view the surveillance camera recordings, he responded that it would only be possible the next day. We had to insist that he call the police to access the footage. After 5 to 10 minutes, the director arrived, apologized, and informed us that he would check the recordings the following day. Additionally, they refused to grant us the 30% discount with which we had made the reservation." "I strongly advise against this restaurant and warn the community to be very cautious

The food is delicious and served promptly. The staff is attentive and polite, but their strictness about our reservation through The Fork made us feel uncomfortable. They insisted we could only sit inside if we had booked via the app, which caused a bit of unease.

La Carmela was is my wish list for my Madrid trip, and it didn’t disappoint us. Delicious food, awesome paella, fresh intern ambient (with Madrid summer time, it’s a must), and friendly service. For sure a place to visit and have great food at Madrid.
