Fodor's Expert Review Horcher
$$$$
Retiro
German
A beacon of old-world Spanish hospitality, Horcher is a Madrid classic with German influences. Wild game—boar, venison, partridge, and duck—is the centerpiece of the menu, which also includes comfort-food classics like ox stroganoff with a Pommery mustard sauce and pork chops with sauerkraut. The dining room is decorated with brocade and antique Austrian porcelain; an ample selection of French and German wines rounds out the menu.
