I stopped into this small but bright pastry, cake, and ice cream shop on a night stroll through the…read morePlaza Major. They are located on the east side of the plaza, more north than south. There were so many goodies to choose from, I wasn't sure what to try. I settled on a small scoop of Pantera Rosa ice cream and 3 small pastries called mantecados. After taking a bite of a mantecado, I realized that I know this cookie well. It's basically the same as a Filipino polveron. Confitería Santa Lucía's mantecados are crumbly, sweet, and topped with a fine glaze of sugar. Every day in Spain has been an interesting history lesson in the origin of the familiar foodstuffs of my childhood. There was only one person working and the people in front of me were ordering lots of pastries for a party, so it was a bit of a wait. The counter person was a bit gruff. And the ice cream was nothing to write home about. Thus the 4-star review. But would I come back here to try their other delicious desserts? Absolutamente.

I suggest getting a lunch special in order to save a few Euros: You'll get miso soup, a small variety of maki, a drink (I got a warm sake), and a desert. Please try the green tea ice cream. It is rich and aromatic, not like the over-sweet, bland ice cream in the States. I have returned a few times for lunch here. I'll go back for certain. However, if you're looking for a place where you can get a huge mouthful of cream cheese in your sushi, this is not the place. It's upscale and authentic. Practice your sushi-eating etiquette here. I'm giving a 4-star rating because the portions are a little small, and they don't carry unfiltered sake.

They have a few tables and chairs outside and the staff will come wait on you if you decide to eat outside. They have a very extensive menu of food and desserts. Many of the other customers were eating lunch, but we had come just for the desserts. It was a hot day, so we decided on some of the cold chocolate beverages. They were like chocolate slushies, but the chocolate was good chocolate, not fake kind. We also got some churros which are not like American churros. If you're American, do not expect Costco/Disneyland style churros that are coated with cinnamon sugar. Spanish churros are just deep fried dough, kind of like youtiao if you're familiar with Chinese food. They were served hot and crispy. The waitresses were very nice and quickly came by to take our orders and bring the food. We didn't feel rushed and it was a lovely afternoon snack.

I got the smoked salmon and it is the best salmon I've ever had. My reason for the 4 stars was for the staff. Our waitress didn't seem like she wanted to be there. Didn't greet us, seemed bothered when we asked her for wine or water or just anything in particular. The dessert was amazing as well. We got a little taste of it all. My favorite was the strawberry ice cream and their tiramisu.
