They probably prefer it that way because the quiet vibe appeared to be part of the ambiance they're seeking here. We just found it by chance on Google Maps as an alternative to the beef-heavy eateries in the neighborhood. We just felt a need to eat healthier. The menu was small and appetizing, and we treated ourselves to two 3,5€ glasses of Zafra Blanco, a crisp Spanish white wine that freshened our palates. We started our meal with a complimentary helping of a "creamy" beetroot dip accompanied by lightly crisped pita chips (Photo 7). Next came the 12€ Spinach and "Parmesan" Croquettes, six lightly fried, falafel-like spheres drizzled with cashew nut mayo (Photo 8). They provided the ideal bites. Jamie went for their signature 15€ Moroccan Bowl with corn couscous, beetroot falafel, sweet potato, spinach, cherries, pickled cucumber, tomato, and fresh dates drizzled with mint yogurt sauce (Photo 6). It was quite a cornucopia of flavors that meshed quite well together with the falafels the particular standout. I decided to go for the 8€ Brochette of "Chicken" with chunks of zucchini and onion and satay sauce over a bed of sweet potato noodles (Photo 9). I'm not sure what the "chicken" was, but the flavor and texture was surprisingly spot-on. At the same time, I'm glad I limited myself to one skewer because I wanted to save room for dessert and the 4€ bottle of sparkling Green Apple Cider (Photo 4). Jamie and I settled on the delightful 6,5€ Tiramisu Cake dusted with Cocoa and swirled with Toffee (Photo 10). We finished our meal with 2€ cups of Cortado with the right amount of warm, steamed milk (Photo 5).

The tofu is extremely flavorful, as are all of the dips! I opted for a marketplace one day and for the salad and bread the other.

I had a reservation the first visit but realized I didn't need one so I did not do it again on my second visit. The first time I tried the MAD signature burger which was fantastic! I love the sauce on the burger and on the side. The Cajun fries were good although labeling them as Cajun is a stretch. The chicken sandwich was also very good and the sweet potato fries were to perfection. Again great sauce on the sandwich. For all the food with or without the sauce it has flavor which I truly appreciate! The cookies and cream dessert was tasty and kind of reminded me of key lime pie. Service was great as they are quick and very attentive. I like the restaurant vibe and it was not noisy and had a great music. Overall I really enjoyed the food here and would've ate here everyday if I could.

The atmosphere is nice too. They have full bar as well as kombucha and other non alcoholic drinks and of course many coffees to choose from.

I came here with a large group for lunch and we had great paella. They can do paella with chicken,…read morepaella with seafood, paella with chicken and seafood (which is what we did), etc. Our group wanted everything to be mixed in one big pan and the blended flavors worked pretty well. They do require 25 minutes for their paellas. The other items we got were also delicious: jamon iberico, mussels, and octopus. Lots of restaurants serve mussels or octopus, but L'Albufera prepares them at a higher quality. Even the desserts -- cava sorbet and passionfruit mousse -- had refined presentations and fantastic flavors.

Love this place, we have been here a few times over the years. A few of us went back in February…read more We ended up getting a Seafood Paella. The Paella was extremely good. Got to admit it though, our waitress "Mafe" was the best part of the experience. So friendly and fun to talk with, she made the experience complete. Back again on 10/23/23 and 11/09/23...can't get enough of this place. Food is always consistent and great. I had the anchovie appetizer , along with some Ibérico jamón, Sopa Pescado y Marisco, and finally Arroz Negro (my Favorite). Again the service is fantastic. Chef Enrique nails it every time. Maria Fernanda was friendly and happy as ever...

Madrid's full of vegan spots and this was one I had previously researched before arriving and…read morecouldn't resist stopping by for dinner. I came off a fairly long day of sightseeing and sought a more proper meal. This ended up being one of the closer options for me so I pounced. The place is very chill. Seems apt for college students or those visiting and staying in hostels. It's got that youthful energy for sure, but I did see a nice variety of people. Not knowing what's better than the other, I ordered the B13 burger. Man, the burger was on point. The patty was excellent and filling. You couldn't even tell the cheese was vegan. The fries were the perfect compliment. Not oily but tasty and thick. If anything, the only minor gripe was the patty and bun were so big that I had to eat with a fork and knife. That's an indictment of how great the place is. Service is pretty fast too - about less than 10 mins. With the combination of a beer, the price was less than 10 euros, which is a steal for a tasty dinner, I highly recommend?

Very hip spot and lots of younger crowds and tourists. You pick a protein and side and it comes with a nice salad and slice of sourdough. Salmon was perfectly cooked and slightly charred edges. The salad had a nice light mustard vinaigrette. The side of the hummus was nice and thick and paired well with the sourdough. I also added on a couple falafels and it's a must try. The falafels are huge and tasty. Not oily at all and sharable. Sliced chicken breasts was flavorful and moist. White meat can get dry but this was moist and herbs was not overpowering. Cashier spoke English and Spanish and the service was quite fast. You order and then they give you a number and pick a table and wait. Affordable spot and good for lunch or dinner. I wished they would open up a franchise in the states.

However they've recently banned laptops from everywhere except a very uncomfortable bar around the center column. That bar is also very high so if you're short like me it's impossible to work at.
