    Helpful staff, comes with an English and Spanish menu for those who do not speak the language. I would classify the food as Asian fusion almost. Per the picture (sorry for the poor quality), our table got: - Beef nigiri where one serving comes with a pair (top left) I would probably say most flavorful dish of the night - tuna tataki with wakame salad (middle left) Nothing super special - ham croquettes (top middle) Pretty good, crispy on the outside gooey in the middle - guacamole salad (middle) Basically chips and guac with a side of mozzarella slices -Spanish pancake with potato filling (top right) Would have been amazing if it was hot and crispy but it came lukewarm -salmon roll with cream cheese filling (middle right) Basically toast with lox and cream cheese in my opinion -meatball tapa (bottom right) Pretty yummy, one of the few warm dishes we had -pomelo vodka Tastes like a lychee pomelo mix. On the sweeter side so masked the vodka taste quite well. -not pictured: chicken pita Very good. Served warm with arugula and this curried sauce which was a lovely combination. Overall, you won't like this place if -you're a salads all day person -you want your meal to be warm and hearty However, otherwise it was good. Service was speedy (surprisingly) and the ambiance was cute as well. I was told that the crowd that shows up at this place is attractive and the people there seemed to live up to the hype. Fun for people watching.

    We like this location over the one in Calle Velazquez. More comfortable. The staff is very nice. The food is good. The place is beautiful.

    Makkila - Solomillo saltado al pisco y arroz con salsa huancaína

    First time in Spain and wowwwww!! So delish!! Ordered Solomillo saltado al pisco y patatas fritas…read morecon salsa huancaína but with arroz (rice). Incredible!! Taste like Lomo Saltado (Peruvian) or Filipino Bistek. Melida, who waited on us, was FANTASTICA Muchas gracias

    After living in the actual city of Madrid for a few weeks, we passed this establishment multiple…read moretimes and had always seen it packed with people. So, we thought it's got to be good. Therefore, we went. We sat outside as is customary to do in Spain because it's always beautiful and sunny here, so why not. Like most Spanish restaurants, we began with a small snack of potato chips and drinks...the Spanish love their potato chips appetizers. My drink was good. They called it "smoky," which was a vermouth with a little bite of spice at the end. The food was something else, and I mean that in a bad way. My wife's fish and a chips were extremely skimpy and the fish still had the skin on them. My sons French fry dish was drenched in oil, very lubricated. However, my tortilla was the perfect size with great bread. Nevertheless, all this cost us €85, which is way too expensive for not just the quality of the food but also for the area. The service was very lax. It took forever to get service, both when we arrived and when we wanted to the check. This kind of chill service is common in Spain but here it was too extensive, even for Spain. Overall, the food was expensive for how mediocre it tasted and for how long we waited. We will probably not go back, not even for a date night, especially when there are so many other, better options from which to choose.
