Delicious food and great service. Our server, Esperanza, was very attentive. Portions are on the small side, but that’s clearly stated on the menu. Would visit again.

The restaurant and the service is nice. But the portions of the rolls are ti è for the price point 8 euro for 4 tiny pieces. Salmon of tartar didn’t seem to be fresh

Esperanza was helpful, attentive and friendly. She made certain, in English, that we were clear about the menu and our order. I would rate her 10 out of 10.

They had an interesting selection of food. That said, the food arrived in drips and drabs so some people had food and others did not. It was not bad. It was not good. We would not go back again. All that said, the staff was very nice. The setting nice.

When we arrived the restaurant was not very busy at all and we thought, oh no this is not good. Within minutes of our arrival the whole place filled up and what occurred next was simply amazing to watch and be a part of. Carlos was our server and he was fantastic. WE do not speak Spanish and he only spoke a little English but he kept working with us and being patient. We were able to decipher the menu and since we do not eat pork or shellfish, it took a little effort. We ordered 5 items, 2 were the Wagyu burgers along with, chicken masala, crispy chicken and one other item. Service was incredible. EVERYONE was literally running around. I have never ever seen wait staff work this fast and hard. Everything tasted fantastic. Portion sizes were reasonable for the price. The Fork discount made it even better. What started out with great doubt, turned out to be one of the most fun and wonderful dinners in a long while. Wish we had come back for our last night in Madrid!
