Go there after having eaten elsewhere. Otherwise really worth it ( I did dance for some years myself). Service could be better. More

We attended the show of March 22, 2012 at 10.30pm and the place was almost empty except for four other copules. The show was nice but not intense as you may expect! We had Paella and meat skewer which were overly priced! More

I had done a lot of research online before our Spain/Portugal trip about where might be the best Flamenco in Madrid and even spoke with some locals including our Madrid bicycle tour guide, Carlos, who grew up in Madrid. Now I know the place to see excellent and less-touristy flamenco is in Seville, but unfortunately, Seville wasn't on our itinerary... More

We went with the idea that we probably wouldnt eat but once we saw the prices for the food we definately didnt! We ordered a drink each and some olives and bread. Drinks were about 8 euros each (beer or wine). The olives were ok but the bread was rock hard and very stale! On seeing other people's food arrive... More

Had dinner with family here August 28, 2011. The meals are ridiculously overpriced and you are charged even for the buns that have been on the table for hours. That I found insulting. The meals were good but nothing incredible for the prices. The best meal was the salmon that my son had ordered. Make sure they don't overcook it!... More

This has a very good reputation as one of the best flamenco shows in Spain. My husband had been there several years ago, before we were married, loved it, and wanted me to see it, too. The dancers and musicians were just terrific! Small venue, obviously not a place where crowds of tourists would be bussed in. This was much... More
