Hello all -

firstly, I thanks each and all - I’ve been successfully lurking over the last month to plan my short-notice Madrid trip.

I have reservations at the following - would love to know if I’m missing anything special or should avoid any of the one’s I’ve chosen…I’m also looking for some lunch recommendations as well.

1. Fismuler
2. Las Tortillas de Gambino
3. Charrua
4. Bolboreta OR Moratin
5. Tres Por Cuatro
6. Sacha

thank you all,

The only one I've been to on your list is SACHA and it is excellent. If you arrive by taxi, be aware that the entrance is a little hidden away from where the txi will probably drop you. I had to call them since I could not find the front door after leaving my taxi!!

Are any of those in the Retiro area, east of the Park? If not, you might take a look at LA CASTELA, TABERNA LAREDO or LA CATAPA.
I don't know fi any are open for lunch, probably not. But for lunch, maybe LAKASA. Or, RAFA if you want shellfish/fish for lunch.

Sure you will have some memorable meals!! Madrid is just a treasure trove of the highest order when it comes to food.

I see CHARRUA is a steak place; there is also LOS 33 that I've become curious about but I think it's hard to book.

Please come back and report on all of your gastronomic adventures!!
