I went with my two other friends, we're from the states, Puerto Rico and Thailand. It was cheap and the workers were very sweet and cute too. A good environment, and good latino food. Totally recommend and mostly good if you're visiting el Prado for a day. It's a very good change from the Spanish food and they have a lot of variety to choose from. Recommend the patacones! read more

Tasty food, excellent service and reasonably priced. My partner and I went here for late lunch after visiting Museo Nacional Del Prado I had Arepa Catarina which is chicken and Arepa De Pabellon which is beef highly recommended didn't get a chance to take picture of the food as we tucked into it very quickly. We also shared a Mix De Embutidos différent sausages and fried potatoes very tasty. read more

A very enjoyable meal here: good food, good service, nice sangría. The restaurant was not busy, but served us one of the better meals we've had during our short week in Madrid. Definitely order the tostones. Bravas were also tasty and plentiful. read more

It was pretty good on food but DO NOT. I REPEAT DO NOT. get the brownie with ice cream for dessert it was quite possibly the most disgusting thing ever they give you a spoon right so u can cut into the brownie, IT WAS AS HARD AS A ROCK. it crumbled out of my mouth as I held it up to my mouth because, you can't cut a rock with a spoon!! Ice cream was meh but the brownie was gross a waste of money and didn't even have good flavor it was dry and watery taste. BOOOOOOO but the dinner was good read more

Tried this because of all the great reviews and joy they didn't disappoint!! We had five tapas , the arepas with burrata and the platanos really stood out especially but everything was amazing. Go here! The staff is awesome and you won't be anything but happy with the food . read more

We came here based on yelp reviews and were they spot on!!! Had dinner for two First: you are greeted warmly by the bartender and waitstaff. No harried overworked and "stern" waitstaff to be seen. None of the usual crowded loud and cramped Spanish "ambiance" here!! No, here you have an establishment that "gets it". You are out for a good time fine cocktails and great food: they bill themselves as a gastropub and do they deliver!! The cocktails are well thought out and amazing. No cursory old cocktails here as you would find in most Spanish bars. The food is just wonderful: everything we tried was excellent including the dessert The service is attentive and friendly This lovely little spot deserves a visit for its own merits: great food and drink read more

Such wonderful food and great service. Yucatan influenced Spanish food with a great blend of flavors. We ordered the Mixed Fajitas....this was my 11 year old daughter's choice and internally I was sad that this is what we would be eating at a Spanish restuarant. To my surprise, this was a well flavored dish with tender succulent meat. It was accompanied by their version of a guacamole which is a avocado based sauce with cilantro. It was delish. We also ordered the prawns with garlic and the 4 Yucatan corn bread samplers which also had deliciously distinctive flavors. The garlic prawns was served with some crusty bread for sopping up the garlic butter goodness. My husband said this was our best meal so far in Spain. We really enjoyed it. read more

Wow what a great lunch experience! So close to Prado and amazing value. Simply delicious! read more

Cacao Restobar - 'Small' nachos. Delectable! - Mediterranean Near Me - Madrid, M

As others have commented, this is a nice break from Spanish food. We ordered the Mediterranean salad, the octopus and the salmon. The salad was awesome, the salmon was nice --served with yummy roasted vegetables-- but in my mind the octopus was the best. All was delicious and healthy. Highly recommended! read more

Execellent service and tasty food! Authentic Venezuelan food here in Madrid. Would go again!

Waiter Daniel is excellent, very attentive and nice. We had Burrata salad and it was delicious! We tried the plantains and garlic prawns, both were very good. We're about to have the Salmon with vegetables and I'm sure it's also since since everything we had was great! read more

Currently just ate here and am sooo full from all the amazing food!! Decor is very cool, service great and the food delicious!! If you are looking for a delicious, chill and hip place to eat come here!! read more

Great spot in Madrid near Prado - from the greeting (hola Edwin) the food, the personal friendly service (gracias Maria) was great! The mohitos are amazing (et gracias Harrison) recommend the octopus, actually everything was great - we got garlic shrimp, fajitas, the tomato bread, yucca, shredded beef with rice all was fantastic! Desserts are delicious as well - tres leches was amazing and limon pie (think key lime) also soooo good!! From the front it looks small and quaint buy they have a nice dining room in the back - after 5 restaurants here in the area this was the best - highly recommend (and the prices are good!!) read more

the best meal i had on my trip. amazing sangria, phenomenal taquitos, incredible chicken and pork meals. one of the entrees (forgetting the name because this is from a few months ago- maybe a tostada?) tasted like a hybrid of indian chat and venezuelan food and it was so phenomenal. would fly back just for the food here. HUGE portions as well, so you wil leave happy and full. read more

I wanted to try some grilled octopus while in Madrid, so we came here. Mind - Blown. The octopus exceeded our expectations, as did the rest of our meal. Edgar, our waiter and bartender provided amazing service as well as an in depth explanation of every dish. read more

I found this restaurant on Yelp, looking for good food on a Thursday night after a trip of eating tapas. What a find! The food was absolutely amazing. The grilled salmon was excellent and the pork tenderloin with carmelized onion and potato was OUT OF THIS WORLD. So good! And we really enjoyed our waiter, Manuel. He was patient with our broken Spanish and we helped him with his English. This is my favorite restaurant in Spain so far. Trust me, come. And indulge in the booze. The orange Manhattan & sangria are SO GOOD. - Paul, San Diego, CA, USA read more

If your going to splurge this is the place to go, great food and great customer service. I got the beef tenderloin and my girlfriend got the octopus, they were both delicious. read more

Delicious! Very cozy spot that is owned by 4 families together. Great wine and food.

The people here were incredibly kind and friendly to two Americans who are very weak on our Spanish. The food was fantastic and the drinks, strong and delicious. I highly recommend! read more

This is one of my favorite restaurants in Madrid. My boyfriend and I were a little tired of the tapas scene and came here. We had the arepas (pulled meat and Reina with chicken) both were phenomenal, made with corn and so so delicious. Not really shareable, unless you are willing to get messy. One night we had the pork tenderloin with potatoes which was very good, but the highlight was the pabellion dish. Portions are also great!!The second day we had the fajitas grande portion which comes with four tortillas and pico de gallo. The fajitas were plenty for two people and were out of this world delicious (we got the mix chicken and beef). We left full and very very satisfied. The staff is very friendly and jovial always with an authentic smile. I will miss this place! read more

We had the arepas and patacones and they were delicious. Service was great. Everyone was friendly.

Great small little restaurant, in a quiet corner. Staff is friendly and service is great. I took a stab at tequeños (small crispy bites of cheese), arepas (well seasoned chicken with a nice crunchy masa) and their san francisco zumo delicious. While enjoying I saw what my table neighbor had and was really questioning why my stomach is not larger so I can try more. Would recommend going, no questions asked! read more

My girls and I are on vacation in Madrid and I came across this place on Yelp and it looked pretty good so we gave it a try. I'm glad we did because the food was amazing! The place is very cute, loved the ambience and the men who ran the place! The burrata was great and I personally got the Arepas degustation which were a combo of different fillings... On point!! The grilled octopus tapas also super good! And to top it off, the on the house Homemade "Bailey's" to end your night! I would 100% recommend Cacao Restobar! read more

If you want to switch it up in Madrid and try Venezuelan food, make a stop at this delightful spot! I had the tequeños with papelon (dark sugar sauce), the Pelua arepa with shredded beef, and a side of ripe plantains plus a passion fruit icee. Lots of Venezuelan locals stopping in and out and lovely service. Yum! read more

We enjoyed the fajitas, the arepas (corn pancakes), and the fried plantains. The fresh guacamole which came with all our items was amazing!! Everything had a unique (in a good way) taste and we would definitely recommend this restaurant. The waiter was also extremely nice. read more

Found this place browsing on yelp while in Madrid. I am so happy we found this hidden gem. Spot is super cute and the food is delish. Staff was friendly and suggested some tasty drinks. read more

Wanted some more vegetarian options so chose this place. REALLY BAD FOOD! Felt like I was at a bad Mexican (not Spanish) restaurant in the US. It was supposed to be Venezuelan.... but didn't feel so! And way way too over priced for a restaurant in Madrid/Spain. read more

This place is AMAZING! This one of the best dinners we have had during our stay in Spain. The plates were authentic and oh, so delicious! Drinks were fantastic! We ordered tapas (plantains + cheese stick things...with maple syrup (YUMM)), main dishes (octopus + pork tenderloin), dessert (trace leche), multiple drinks (sangria + mango capriana)each, and coffee for a very reasonable price. Chris and Carols will make recommendations for dinner - we had Chris basically order for us. We really enjoyed our evening, a dinner we will always recall. Coco - please come to Portland, OR!!! read more

This was such a great find and I'm so happy we decided to try it. The mojitos were absolutely delicious and the food was amazing. I'd definitely go back! read more

After a long day of sightseeing it was nice to sit down and get some stupendous service and delicious food. Chris, their bartender prepared a Cacao Passion drink which awakened my palette with a delightful infusion of sweet and spicy! My husband enjoyed a cup of a special blend of their hot coffee con leche. We shared a flavorful entree of garlic prawns and beef fajitas with a unique green sauce, salsa, and queso on tortillas. read more

Cacao Restobar - Madrid's idea of sweet and spicy! Cacao Passion! - Mediterranean Near Me - Madrid, M

Great food and amazing staff. The place is family owned and ran, so service is particularly good. Great place to have a drink with true Venezuelan food. read more

This place is a FIND for people heading to Madrid! We returned back here twice in a 5 day stay. The mojitos are amazing. Ordered and loved the pulled pork, mixed sausages, plantains, and pork tenderloin. We sat out front in the small bar area but the back lounge offers more space. read more

It's a good place to stop in and have a bite to eat. I think the food is really good quality. No wonder they get 5 stars. Food is a little small for me, but would be good for light eaters. read more

Extremely delicious food. Nice English speaking bartender and large jar of Sangria. Nice place to hang around for a day.

This was a great find; food was fantastic prices were extremely reasonable especially for Madrid. Edgar and Edison were wonderful, not many owners/managers will sit with you and have an actual conversation; they have great personality (never met a stranger). I had the salmon with vegetables and garlic shrimp; both excellent. My friend had octupus with a sweet potato mass. She said it was very tender and smokey. Sangria was great; very fruity in a mason jar. Try it you'll love it! read more

Absolutely wonderful. Great atmosphere. Great food. We had arepas and patacones and both were fabulous. Between the two, I'd get the patacones again. The drink menu is extensive and fancy, so good for a cocktail. Drinks a tad expensive, but everything was worth it! I'd come again. The gentlemen working were also incredibly sweet and friendly!! Give it a try! read more

Absolutely fantastic!! Being in Madrid for only four days, we were inclined to return 3 times! Spouts Venezuelan/Spanish cuisine combined with a very nicely decorated place (I especially recommend going down stairs to the "rabbit hole"...). Their menu, of course with the classics included, carries a variety of original dishes with flavor combinations you'll see very rarely, but wonder why that's so. I personally most enjoyed the solomillo de cerdo... but order any arepa for example, and the presentation (and taste) will really make you appreciate the attention to detail they give. But before you get up to leave after eating... check out their liquor inventory! They have an exotic collection of hard to get Venezuelan alcohols along with a very creative custom drink menu... definitely recommend!! Highlights -Intriguing delicious menu, a must-go for any Latin American visiting -very friendly people with great attentive service -reasonable prices -perfect for alcohol enthusiasts read more

Stumbled into this wonderful place while walking back to our place...really good drinks didn't try the food as it was 1am but will definitely come back to try it! read more
