    Difficult, difficult, difficult to give this place a star-rating. Please consider this a 3,5!…read more Short version: Was I fan? About certain things, YES! Will I tell all my friends, colleagues, family members "go there!"? No. The one thing that stood out and I would say: GO EAT IT, is the gunkan Squid&Truffle. I have never had any sushi so delightful and sooooo yummy ever in my life!! My story: Thursday afternoon and hungrrrrry, craving for sushi. Consulted my Yelp app, as I do, and found this place nearby. Hashtag win! I came in around 2-ish and it was totally empty, I was the first customers. Which makes sense, as the Spaniard goes to lunch way later. When I left, the place was almost full. So, if you want to go here with a group - totally possible when you go a bit earlier! The menu is interesting; really cool flavour combinations! And again, that gunkan Squid&Truffle is SO good and you have to eat it! If not, I'll fly to Madrid and tell you off in person. I had the gunkan Fatty Tuna (which was ok, no wow-factor), the gunkan Sea Urchin (booooooring), and the Hotate Maki (good). I was expecting more from the Hotate Maki; scallops can be so soft, that they just melt in your mouth and that wasn't really the case here. To be fair, I expected the Squid&Truffle nót to be so soft and it was. Ooooooh this gunkan will stay with me forever and will give me gastronomic dreams for the rest of my life!! The service was good, not super surprising as I was the only one in the restaurant and already had all my food before it became busy. The one thing that really makes me give this place no full stars is: 1. My overall sushi-eating-experience; the nori was nice & crispy + the rice was dry (meh) + some toppings were uh-mazing (had I mentioned the Squid&Truffle? DO IT!) but overall I found the toppings medium impressive. 2. The overall price; €50 for sushi & 2 drinks is excessive when it comes to the overall yumminess (or lack thereof), except for the Squid&Truffle. Sorry, had to mention it again. Plus: there's already 10% service charge on the bill. Don't get me wrong, I'm a big tipper, I am! I think it's just something 'that you always do' and the amount represents the appreciation for your experience. In general, I give around 5-10% and when I really liked it, I'd give 20%. I just really don't like it when it's already on the bill, I'd like to decide for myself and I think customers should always have that option.

    If you've ever tried to find quality sushi in Madrid that matches the cost of other Spanish…read morerestaurants, you're probably still looking. Yes 19 Sushi Bar costs more but having tried many other places, I can say it is worth it. Today I had a beautiful bowl of salmon sashimi on a bed of ice. The sashimi just melted in my mouth. The cost was around 16 euros and yes that is expensive but there was plenty of it, 8 large pieces of 2 bites each, positively delicious. Also very good miso soup, California roll and fantastic service. They do have a menu del dia for 14.95 euros for those that don't want to break the bank. I will be making this my regular Sushi joint! Someone also mentioned a 10% service charge. I just checked my bill and it's IVA Spanish Tax of 10% required by law, so it isn't a service charge/tip as some might think.

    Authentic Chinese restaurant in Madrid. The location is so close to Gran Via…read more My table had mixed thoughts of this place. Some dishes were good, others weren't quite as good. I guess it's hit or miss. Sangria was good. We got the pitcher for the table. Cold dishes- Cucumber | pepino €7.50 - The flavor was ok, but the cucumbers were too soggy for my preference. This was the worst dish of the night for us :( I really was hoping for something refreshing to kick the spiciness of everything else. Banban chicken | pollo €8,90 - This dish was ok to me. The flavor was mid, very oily. The knife technique here was impressive. Duck | pato yuxiang €13,90 - This dish was very good, very fragrant. The duck was crisped and cut so well. Fish | olla pez €29,50 - The fish was good. It came with lotus root, bean sprouts, a few cauliflower, and a shit ton of potato slices. The cucumber slices in there were so soggy, which I did not like. Wontons in chili oil | wantan picante €9,90 - The wontons were not good!! The chili oil sauce was ok, but the wontons were such a disappointment. The skin was too slimy, and there was no flavor inside the wonton. Beef noodle soup | sopa ternera €12,90 - We asked for very spicy and we got it. As soon as I inhaled, I choked. The noodles were very soft. The beef was meh. They added some pickled veggies Rice was €2,20 per person. Credit card accepted.

    It was right behind our hotel... most amazing flavors. We had the garlic shrimp and noodles, Spicy…read moreChicken and fried rice. Probably the best Chinese I've ever tasted!!!
