Our first night in Madrid, we ventured out to a restaurant which we found to be closed. It was pouring down the rain, so we stumbled in here because it was right by our hotel. We were pleasantly surprised by the excellent food and service. My husband had the chicken with lemon and I had a salad with about 6... More

We were advised by our hotel that the kitchen opened around 7:30 and excellent for steaks... Useful for Brits (and others) not used to late eating, although we still didn't get there till 9:00. Service was really professional and very very good. Medium steak is more medium to rare in Spain, but absolutely no problem in asking for it to... More

We sat at the bar and ordered the lunch special which included a steak( a bit tough to chew) a huge bake potato, a drink and dessert or coffee. We chose coffee at the end of the meal. The staff was attentive and after our meal they were quick to provide us with complementary sorbet concoctions to cleanse our palate,... More

On a short break to Madrid, I visited this restaurant. It was wonderful. The staff were attentive and the food was delicious, the only downside being my friend ordered a sirloin steak and there was no sides of any description (although it never said there would be). For two people with 4 soft drinks, two, mains and two starters the... More

This quality restaurant is worth the money. Argentinian steaks so delicious you can't help finishing every last bit of the very generous portions. You order your choice of meat/ fish which is cooked on the BBQ grill and then you choose the side dishes to accompany. These are big enough to share, so we had chips an d salad with... More

I have just come back from weekend in Madrid for my Hubby's birthday and I checked out restaurants to visit before travelling to save time searching the streets at night when we were hungry. i have to say that was the best decision ever. We found the restaurant very easily on Calle de Preciados and the food and service totally... More

Wow! We decided to dine here due to the proximity to our hotel. It tuned out to be our best dining experience in our 4 days in Madrid! We were provided champagne and appetizers as part of the normal course of operations (gratis to all). The meal and service were outstanding. Loved our steak and the fantastic, attentive service! Don't... More

We were with three. I ordered Sirloin steak, one of the more expensive main courses. When it arrived the meat was cold. I called the waittress and was able to explain what the problem was. Five minutes later i got the same piece of meat on the same plate with the same fries on the side, marginally warmer but still... More

We went to another location of De Mario Parrilla (please note the spelling is incorrect above) which was located at Calle Preciados, 32, which is off the Gran Via and Plaza Callao. We went at lunch time. The crowd was mostly locals, but they do have menus in English. We ordered a great salad and fantastic steaks. The meat was... More
