    Mercado de la Reina does not disappoint. When I was on a businesstrip a couple of years ago our client took us here and I really liked the experience. When visiting Madrid for leisure going back made sense. We were so pleased that we went back the next evening. Friendly staff, great food (the prawn carpaccio is amazing and they serve the best Lomo Bajo (entrecote) I've had in years.). Home made fries and the Torrija dessert completed a great dinner. The Piña Colado cocktail was really good I'm told and the special The Fork deal (30 to 50% on food) was a fenomonal! We will be back.

    Mercado de la Reina 12Owner

    Excellent local food. If you like to taste tipical dishes, profesionaly cooked the Mercado de la reina is the palace. Pay attention where you take a seat. In the basement and close to the window in winter months is quite cold.

    The food was too salty and heavy. We wanted to order a burger and the waiter said they do not have but then we saw people on the table next to us get some. We were also given an appetizer and bread without explaining that they are not complimentary.

    The french fries were amazing. The entrecôte was extremely chewy though and I could barely eat it which dropped my food score down. The croquettes were a solid 9/10

    Our first meal in Madrid. It was very nice and we enjoyed the back area. It is a bit on the tourist-y side but the food was solidly good!

    food was good, not wow, i said that i have The Fork discount at the beggining of the meal. But when i came to pay , they asked me for the diskount code, and I didnt have one since i thought i can get it at the restaurant. I entered to the app and got a discount code, but they refused to accept it, so i payed the full amount. I was very disspointed
