Fodor's Review:

Santi Santamaría's Madrid branch of his Racó de Can Fabes (near Barcelona) has proved an immediate and major success in the Spanish capital. One of the reigning troika of chief Spanish chefs, Santamaría works in a sophisticated environment, where the service is as impeccable as the food: exquisite combinations of Mediterranean ingredients accompanied by a comprehensive and daring wine list. Go with an appetite and lots of time (a minimum of three hours) because a meal here is ceremonious. If you're a meat lover, don't leave without trying the jarrete (veal shank). And if you love cheese you'll be bewitched by the cheese sampler offered before dessert.

2 star Michelin and really classy but you will need to empty your bank account to go or be handed a gift invitation from a wealthy benefactor. The service is excellent - each member of the staff has a dedicated role (sommelier, chees-elier, lacuenta-elier etc).
