Three of us visited tonight. The Gastromaquia was on the short list for Madrid. We arrived at 8:45pm. We were the first customers of the night. We all loved the food and Hugo's explanation of the menu. Don't be put off by the location, everyone is lovely! The grand total for 3 was 60 Euros, including drinks and a shared... More

At first we wondered where we had come to, very quiet, not much going on, but then the fantastic waiter came over and explained all the menu to us in English dish by dish. Very impressed. He also told us if we had ordered too much etc so was super helpful. The food was superb, something to note is that... More

We booked this restaurant having read other reviews on here. When we arrived at the restaurant I was a little apprehensive about going in due to the poor frontage of the restaurant, however don't let that put you off as the inside is much better and the food is beautiful. I have to eat gluten free and the guy serving... More

Hugo, one of the two chef owners is a great host and made us feel as though we were his only guests. He translated and described the menu and we enjoyed all of our selections especially the grilled goat cheese with honey and basil infused oil, the radicchio and orange salad dressed with balsamic vinegar and the grilled rabbit. Without... More

We knew what to order, and Hugo convinced us to order also the octopus, which was far from good. He claimed that people from Galicia came here to eat their octopus. I'm Galician and I can't simply believe that. List of surprises when you get the bill: - The bread and service is 1,50 euros per person. - Some people... More

I went here for dinner my 2nd night in Madrid and had a great meal! I dined solo and the owner, Hugo, made me feel very welcome and kept me company by chatting with me and helping me practice my Spanish. I ordered the guacamole with plantain chips, the octopus in cream foam with paprika and then a chocolate foam/mousse... More

We went there twice in three days... this says it all! Food is simply delicious and very fair priced. Both days we went there were many people. A good mix of Spaniards and tourists. Dishes are culinary. I personally highly recommend the goat cheese with pesto and the salad with the orange. My partner recommends the patatas. Also desserts are... More

Dont be fooled by the simple decor of this brightly lit sliver of a restaurant. It represents the very pinnacle of Madrid's food scene right now. Pure flavors, cooking perfection, creativity without conceit. And your host may have just found a way to sqeeze you in without a reservation (a feat that i wouldn't bet on though) yet he welcomes...

Hugo you rock! Not alone did you make room for us at the last moment, you also recalled who we were, our table, the food we had and the wine we drank. Another fantastic culinary experience. A repeat with huge success. Thank you so much for making my recommendations for the last year true and worthwhile. We will most certainly... More
