This is a spot that feels like a little bar but is actually more like a casa with some food items…read more Here, they are big on pig and there are Iberico hams located on and around the bar for easy access. If you are vegan, coming here will only piss you off. In fact, a vegan in Madrid in general is ill-advised. The setting feels historic and rustic with exposed brick and stone that appears to be centuries old. They seem to make everything (both food and drink) behind that cramped bar which explains why most of their menu items are cold, pre-made, or easy to assemble from short lists of raw ingredients. This does not mean that anything is bad. It just means it is like producing charcuterie in a dorm room bar. A large number of items involve Iberico Ham and one of the barmen is constantly shaving off thin pieces for service. In fact the freebie snack they send out from the kitchen had some Iberico ham and Manchego cheese on it which was a really nice warm up of what to expect. Over the noonish lunch hour, I was the only tourist in the place surrounded by many locals that clearly know about this spot. I liked those odds for assuring me of a genuine authentic experience. It was an accurate predictor. I'm not the most experienced when it comes to true Spanish tapas but this seemed to be a very genuine depiction of what the locals look for in a rustic Iberico ham experience. And frankly, even if it wasn't I can't find anything to really complain about. It was a cool historic setting, there was ice-cold vermouth from a tap, and I spent an hour shoving local Morcilla (blood sausage) and Iberico pig parts into my pie hole for the better part of an hour. It was a great experience any way you choose to look at it.

Food was very good, with a varied menu with lots of options and very good service as well. Started with my favorite dish of the night, aubergines with red peppers, onions and hazelnuts. Surprisingly fantastic! Fried artichokes were well done, lightly breaded and fried and with good salt. It's quiet a large portion, so plenty to share for a table of 4. Mini goat cannelloni was delicate with a nice sauce. Meatballs were in a cream sauce, slightly more cooked than I would have liked, but a nice sauce. The crispy chicken is a slight misnomer. It's stewed chicken thigh meat with crispy potato and a madiera/marsala wine sauce with mushrooms. Very tasty. Loved this restaurant!

Every dish was excellently prepared. Tropical salad, calamari, seafood rice. All delicious! Quaint…read morespace and lovely service.
