Cobras & Matadors

Cobras & Matadors Review

A bustling storefront spot whose cramped tables and long bar channel the aura of a Madrid side street, Cobras & Matadors hits the mark with quality ingredients and value-oriented pricing. Among the numerous appetizers and tapas are favorites like grilled squid salad, crispy green lentils, and charred green asparagus with walnut vinaigrette. Larger plates include the grilled Angus steak, pan-roasted white fish, and homemade paella. There's no wine list here, but no corkage fee either—bring a bottle from your own cellar or buy one from the owner's wine shop next door, where the intriguing inventory leans heavily toward Spanish vino.
