Espectacular restaurante en la calle Ibiza. Servicio muy competente y agradable, materia prima de alta calidad, recetas muy buenas, emplatados muy originales, todo perfecto. Tanto los entrantes como los segundos, excelentes. Postres también de categoría. Muy buena carta de vinos. Repetiremos, muy recomendable!

What a big surprise. You will find this place 1 min by walk from one of the main entrances “puerta de la Reina Mercedes”. The taste and sizes are great. Everything is a bit spicy. We ordered: pig ear, the steak tartar and the “pepito” for 2 and we where full. They have a terrace and indoor restaurant.

Food and service was great! The atmosphere was amazing as the DJ was spectacular. The energy was incredible! Fun place to go with friends for tardeo or dinner!

We went for a birthday celebration and I must say that all dishes were rather original and decently cooked. The restaurant offers a large menu with a variety of dishes including different choices of meat, fish and rice. On the contrary, just a few a desserts are available. The staff is average - they must pay more attention when a client mentions an allergy issue. The decoration is original, but I dislike the dark atmosphere upstairs - don't know why so many restaurants tend to be so lightless.

If you're looking for a restaurant with steak cooked various ways with various sauces and the same treatment afforded to Chicken then you're in the wrong place. Kulto's menu is punchy, limited options driven by the quality of ingredients available that day. On the evening we dined, Tuna was prominent. Executive Chef and Owner José Fuentes took the trouble to come and explain in person the "specials" in English. And we observed from our balcony table him tirelessly making sure the service for that evening ran to his high standards. Food was exceptional. What was an accidental but fortuitous event as our intended restaurant in El Retiro Park was full turned out to be a blessing.

Recommended by James Blake (you tuber) and certainly did not disappoint. We had these tiny crispy fried shrimps which were savory and addicting. Also had grilled giant calamari. Look forward to returning in the future.

We spent new year’s eve in KultO, the place is very nice, the staff very welcoming and generous, our waitress Leticia was the sweetest, she explained to us the NYE tradition of eating 12 grapes the last 12 seconds of 2020 for good luck.. The general ambiance was very festive yet they made sure safety measures were taken for the pandemic. We had 3 dishes and 2 deserts, I found the zucchini salad and both desserts super delicious.. we would definitely come back when we are in Madrid!

Came in for a few tapas only to find that we walked into a sit down dinner, but was very pleasantly surprised. Asked the server to find us a fresh white wine - she came with a great selection (~11€/glass). Ordered the shrimp taco, tuna tartare and bull tail. All three dishes were amazing. We also got some bread - didn’t know bread service came with a price (3€/person), but the bread selection was large and delicious. Just get more than one piece. Our server didn’t speak English, but with our small knowledge of Spanish, we made it through dinner in one piece.

This place is magical! The staff was very helpful, explained all the dishes to us and helped us with choosing the perfect wine. The food was very creative and sooooo tasty. Worth every cent! Try the chocolate dessert!

Amazing food. We had tuna and octopus. Both were amazing, cannot wait to try the other dishes.

Un restaurante muy recomendable cerca del retiro, gran variedad de platos y propuestas muy interesantes. A destacar los dados de atun, el puerro al pil pil y el arroz meloso con costillas. Salimos contentos con la relación calidad precio del sitio, volveremos a hacer parada aqui seguro.

Acabamos en este restaurante un poco de rebote, porque encontrar algo abierto en Madrid en pleno agosto es difícil. ¡Y qué grata sorpresa nos llevamos! Toda la comida estaba deliciosa: sabores familiares pero con un toque de creatividad. En un momento en el que la oferta gastronómica tiende cada vez más a la homogeneización, se agradece encontrar sitios con una propuesta diferente, sin olvidar el sabor y a precios razonables. Estuvimos en la parte de abajo, que tiene mesas altas y un ambiente más distendido, aunque la zona de arriba, con mesas bajas, también se veía bastante bien para un ambiente más íntimo. El servicio fue correcto, aunque sin destacar especialmente. Los precios resultan razonables teniendo en cuenta que es una cocina algo más refinada: pedimos la berenjena, el salpicón, medias raciones de steak tartar y atún marinado, un lomo bajo de vaca, agua y una Coca-Cola, por un total de 104 euros (para 3 personas). Muy recomendable.

Restaurante sobrevalorado en mi opinión. La comida es muy correcta y elaborada, aunque me parece que la carta es corta y en su presentación (de la carta) no a la altura de lo que pagas. Vinimos atraídos por las recomendaciones acerca del atún, aunque brillaba por su ausencia. En la propia carta el cerdo está mucho más presente, y los platos con atún son escasos. El servicio no está mal, bien atendidos sin más.

Nos gustó la comida, preparada para compartir y disfrutar con amigos. Probamos un poco de todo, el nivel medio es alto. Dos plantas, la de abajo de mesas altas más preparada para un tapeo y la de arriba con mesas. Buena bodega con vinos de jerez. Buena atención. Sin embargo, no sé, le faltaba algo de "alma" que nos convenciera y sedujera. Con una buena relación calidad precio.

Restaurante en el barrio del Retiro, justo al lado del metro Ibiza. Acudimos un grupo de 4 personas y pedimos varios platos: tortillitas de camarones, pepitos de ternera, dados de atún, presa ibérica y pimientos de padrón. Muy buena presentación de los platos. Relación calidad-precio un poco cara, ya que tampoco es excesiva la cantidad que te sirven en cada uno de ellos. Destacar la calidad de los dados de atún y la presa ibérica. Sin embargo, los pepitos de ternera estaban picantes (más de lo habitual). Precio alrededor de 40 euros.

Un gran sorpresa. Estando al lado de casa no habíamos venido desde hace años y sin duda un gran descubrimiento. Comida muy especia l, postre tiramisú de castaña buenísimo, atún de 10 y el servicio de 10. Gracias Matías y todos por vuestras recomendaciones

Good place for vegan and vegetarians. There is big variety of dishes for them. Service is very good, everyone was very attentive. Food was good, some unusual combinations are very interesting. Cheesecake is creamy but it is made of sheep and goat milk so bare in mind that it has very strong flavor

Great place. Food is extremely good and creative. Presentation and service are excellent and they really get creative with their dishes but also manage to reproduce familiar tastes. Great for tapas (I recommend shrimps) and for drinks. If you’re looking for some atmosphere this is a win.

A restaurant with a fusion cuisine from Mexico, Spain and maybe Japan (but not sure). Place is attractive, even the kitchen open and it is impressive it didn't produce any smell. Personnel is very friendly and explains you every dish. Remember to ask for the dishes that are not on the menu (don't tell anyone). For dessert we decided to drink mezcal, which they seem to have a very nice collection.

La carta correcta con cosas interesantes. Los postres con faltantes de carta y pedimos el tiramisú (fuera de Carta 14 euros) y llevaba champiñón crudo por encima. No nos resultó muy agradable.

El personal de la planta de arriba no considero que esté a la altura del restaurante. No nos atendieron bien: en cuanto al camarero no fue capaz de servirnos la segunda botellla de vino simplemente la abrió y la dejó en la frappera, luego cuando dejaba o retiraba elementos de la mesa lo hacía de mal modo. También de muy mal modo a las 23.15 nos solicitó que pidamos el postre porque la cocina pronto cerraría, muy mal trato por parte de él. En cuanto a la camarera un poco mejor, pero pedimos un pescado que estaba fuera de Carta y le solicitamos si nos lo podía cortar y servir ya que el pescado venía entero y nos dijo que no, evidentemente no sabía hacerlo, para un restaurante donde vas a pagar 50€ por persona lo mínimo que se espera es que sepan cortar y servir. En cuanto al ambiente es muy acogedor, pero al subir a la planta de arriba hay una impresora en el suelo que no pinta nada, deberían de cuidar esos detalles. La primera vez que fui hace más de dos años dije aquí quiero volver, ayer a la noche dije aquí no vuelvo más, una pena.

Mediocre food in a short menu with very repetitive dishes. Pretentious and unorganized staff in a very noisy enviroment. They presented the bill again after it had been payed. The wine list is a joke, heavy on sherry with very few options of "real wine". An absolute dissapointment for all the buzz around the place. Only the desserts save the day

Desgraciadamente puede haber sido una de mis peores experiencias gastronómicas de mi vida. Venía a este restaurante con buenas referencias y con la premisa de que iba a poder disfrutar de una gastronomía distinguida y de calidad. Dicha premisa me envalentonó a profundizar en la carta, con la ilusionismo de encontrar grandes sabores y contrastes. La primera gran decepción vino con las Gambas de Cristal, carente de cualquier sabor a gamba, con un fuerte sabor monótono de harina/rebozado. La Berenjena a la Brasa si ofrecía un sabor protagonista de la berenjena, pero el resto de elementos que conforman el plato, pasaban desapercibidos o bien generaban un choque degradable al sabor. Un plato sobre el que tenía grandes expectativas era la ensaladilla rusa cremosa de atún, pero una vez más, la falta de sabor propio del atún, o de algún elemento que impresionara al paladar, se tradujo en una decepción. El mismo problema lo encontramos con las Alcachofas Fritas, creo que el elemento principal del plato estaba mal ejecutado por su desagradable textura y su fuerte sabor amargo (impropio de una alcachofa) El tartar de atún ahumado fue un pequeño halo de esperanza por su buen sabor, pero se vio opacado por la decepción de los platos previos. Las gambas rojas y gambas blancas en ajillo, presentaban una textura extraña, que a mi juicio era cruda, desconozco si la naturaleza del plato es esa, pero el resultado era una textura chiclosa/babosa, sin sabor alguno. Otro de los platos probados fueron los dados de atún marinados, que no estaban malos, pero era un sabor muy plano y muy corriente que no ensalzaban al restaurante. Muchas causas pueden explicar esto, exceso de expectativas o bien un mal día de cocina, por ajetreo o falta de producto fresco. Pero no quita que la sensación general haya sido negativa y resta las ganas de dar una segunda oportunidad. Muchas gracias a KultO por recibirme.
