One of the best tapas in Madrid! Good food too, especially Cachopo and Caldo Gallego. Fair prices and always cold beer and cider! But the highlight is Miguel, one of the best waiters in town. Always attentive and ready to serve a "chupito".

Found this place purely by chance. Had and English menu which was handy. The staff were very nice. The portion sizes for the tapas were VERY generous. The food was amazing.. recommend the fried anchovies, the clams and beans with ham and squid. Highly recommend this restaurant.

Really authentic and old-school bar in the Embajadores neighborhood. It’s what Spaniards call a “castizo” bar. They serve you very generous tapas with a caña. So if you’re hungry and you’re looking for a cheap bite, make sure to check out El Valle.

Very nice place for dinner or tapas. The portions are big enough and the staff very friendly and attentive. Recommended to reserve as it can get crowded

The staff dont speak English but their chef help us who speak english helped us a lot. Octopus is sooooo delicious which is the best dish i have ever tried. Squid with onion is also good. We also ordered lamp chop and omelet and salad. It's a place suitable for friends to share the dishes. Excellent! BTW coca cola is super good I dont know why.... But it's better than those I drank before... So weird haha

Super good food, great neighborhood vibes, kitchen open between lunch and dinner, highly recommend for weekend day drinking slightly off the Lavapies path

Always a success! The prices have gone up a lot. 2.70€ for a caña! And for some reason the tortilla was very oily and salty, that's not normal here. I love the generous tapas and the friendly servers.

Great place to eat. Friendly service. If you're in Madrid. Come here!!!

Visited here on a Thursday or Friday, probably around 5 or 6pm. I speak basic Spanish and got a bit of attitude from the main man at the bar when I asked, 'Hablas ingles?' I got served by a very nice young man with gentle eyes. At first, I ordered the paella, but was told that it would take half an hour. So I switched to jamon croquettes and empanadas. The empanadas (I should have noted the word 'quesera') were cheesy and disgusting but the jamon croquettes were smashing! For drinks, don't get juice - the glass was tiny. They were showing the French Open tennis when I got there, so I was happy. Don't be surprised to see policemen enjoying tapas at the bar. A good experience, if a bit uppity

Open for Saturday on Holy Week when many restos are closed so we were lucky coz we needed to eat before our flight. The food was good but not amazing. Everything seems to be bigger hear from the yummy olives to the chopitos Fritos. See photos for which I recommend and don’t. It’s very popular with the older crowd though. The staff were fast but you have to catch their eye or they quickly walk away. Very typical of busy restaurants in Madrid. I love the antique old timey things on display. I remove stars for atmosphere because some of the napkins are heavily stained or had holes on them. Perhaps these should be retired.

The food was good but did not blow our minds. The place was packed when we first got there, so it could be a sign that we may not have ordered what they are most known for. Service was quite slow. This was understandable as the place was so busy when we first arrived. However, towards the middle/end of our meal, the restaurant was pretty empty and it would still take awhile to get the attention of the waiter. We had ordered a salad and only found out that they had run out of that particular salad when an entirely different salad arrived at our table which would not have been our first alternative.

Friendly staff, decent food (free tapas with drinks) but a little expensive for what it was. Animal heads on the walls were a little off putting!

Hoy sábado he estado comiendo el Menú "Especial" de fin de semana por 28€. De primero hemos comido gazpacho, aceptable y judías verdinas con gambón, servidas en un plato muy grande pero la ración era escasísima, (la foto es sin haber probado nada aún, lo manchado del borde es al traerlo a la mesa) )debía ser un cazo, no más. De segundo cogote de merluza a la gallega que estaba bastante regular, sabía un poco a amoniaco y estaba cocido sin más y con un poco de pimentón; el bacalao al horno tampoco estaba apetitoso , estaba como cocido sin más. Un menú por 28€ debe ser de mejor calidad.

Este restaurante tiene capacidad para 80 personas, y agrupan a los grupos de comensales en mesas compartidas sintiendo así como la persona que tienes al lado está masticando. Es un poco agobiante y asfixiante. La comida es muy normalita. La pierna de lechal está mejor pero el bacalao podría decirse que es aceite con bacalao. Añadir también que la atención por parte de los camareros no es nada amable. Y el grifo del baño está oxidado y roto. No hay ni pestillo.

Buf!!! Pedimos 3 raciones y 2 estaban reguleras.... no es q estuvieran mal hechas, sino, producto en mal estado. Al levantarnos e irnos, en la mesa de al lado, la misma ración se la habúan dejado íntegra. Casualidad.....

El servicio fue excelente, el ambiente es bueno, de bar de barrio de toda la vida, y la carta es variada y con buenas cosas. Sin embargo, por mala suerte, pedí una hamburguesa y me llevé un chasco. Estaba bien de precio y venía con patatas y huevo, así que lo tenía todo para llevarse las cinco estrellas, pero la carne, no es que fuera de mala calidad, sino que estaba un poco pasada de rosca, con un sabor chillón, no era fresco y podría sentarle mal a cualquiera. Esto le quita puntos que, de haber pedido otra cosa, seguramente les hubiera dado

Está claro k si el doble de cerveza 🍻 lo cobráis a ese precio, ni me molesto en preguntar cuánto vale cachopo o paella... Será por bares y restaurantes: bienvenidos El Encuentro y El Portillo....

Fuimos un grupo de 7 personas un fin de semana, pedimos la mayoría el menú especial de fin de semana cuyo precio es de 28 euros. La primera impresión negativa fue la insistencia de que pidiéramos algo de beber antes de la comida y al recriminar al camarero su actitud pasó a tener un comportamiento aún más desagradable, ignorándome por completo. Añadir que acompañar un menú de ese importe con un vino de la zona de Noblejas me parece fuera de lugar. Ambiente ruidoso y agobiante.

Pues lamentablemente sitio que recordaba mucho mejor. Si hablamos de precios 4,70 un doble de cerveza 0.0 y 4,30 doble de cerveza normal 3,30 la “cañita” … estos precios parecerían normales si viniesen acompañados de unos aperitivos, cosa que no fue así, aunque llegaron por que se reclamaron… no pasó de un platito de aceitunas y unos pedazos de queso para casi 10 personas. A todo esto hay que sumar que pareció que les molestase que llegáramos tanta gente… nos arrinconaron al final del salón cuando había otras mesas libres en la que hubiésemos estado más cómodos. En fin lo recordaba mejor y más asequible y no entiendo por qué al sentarse en una mesa Cuando pides bebida olvida mágicamente las tapas ( supongo que será para que pidas raciones ) pero entonces, si no me pones una tapa en la mesa y en la barra si… deberías cobrar la consumícion más barata, verdad? Os dejo el ticket y si vais aquí por que vais a la sala Villanos, os recomiendo probar suerte antes en cualquiera de los de alrededor.

I had two years without coming here, and the last time I did, the service was so disgustingly bad that I cannot even describe it in words. I went there to invite someone to try cider, and it was another Spanish traditional customer service experience: disgusting. It is so sad ):

Horrible service. The waiter was rude, made a mistake in the order and charged us for something we didn’t order. I think because we are tourists he took advantage of us. The food was mediocre

Fui a este sitio y me cobraron 17 € por 4 cervezas. Me parece un precio totalmente desorbitado para algo tan básico. No solo es caro, sino que da la sensación de aprovecharse de los clientes. La calidad de las cervezas era normal, nada que justificara semejante importe. No volveré y no lo recomiendo si buscas una relación justa entre calidad y precio.

Ni 5 minutos llevo en el bar, me encuentro con 2 amigas que se acaban de pedir dos cañas a 6€ y nos dicen que tenemos 5 min para quitarnos de allí y te que has y se ríen en tu cara son unos sinvergüenzas y muy poco profesionales. He alucinado 😯. No me ha pasado en la vida.

They knew we were foreigners and the owner wanted to us to pay more. The quality of the food is poor. The seafood smelled of amoniaco. We wont repeat.

Very bad experience: first of all, they have an English menu but the translation are completely wrong (I also speak Spanish, English menu was for my friend), so it is useless. Then we ordered a "vegetable sandwich" which to our surprise came with tuna 😂 when we told the waiter that we are vegetarians and therefore cannot eat that sandwich he replied "but is just tuna, is still vegetarian". Sooo these guys don't even know what vegetarian means. He took the sandwich back and simply removed the tuna and brought everything else back, so we couldn't even eat it because the fish was still there. The other plate was a cheese plate that had nothing more than cheese, not even a bread or jelly on the side, if we wanted that, we would have to pay extra. Also, they keep bringing things that seem like they are giving for free but at the end they plan to charge all of it. DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE.

I went to this restaurant because of all the comments mentioned ,it turns out that it's not all that...my tacos (al pastor)were cold had no flavor no salt on table had to ask for the sauce to put on my tacos.".El Barrio Restaurant" has better food. You should try that place... The only thing that was good was my Pina Colada!!!

I was treated very poorly (there was a lot of people in the restaurant but that does not justify the bad attitude or the utter lack of attention I was met with). I asked for a suggestion and they suggested me shrimps, which I didn't realize were extra to the menu I asked for and ended up costing more than the whole menu. When they brought the check I couldn't even express my resentment as they just left the check on the table with the POS and then left me there doing transactions and check by myself. I wouldn't have complained if the shrimps were at least worth it (or at the very least cleaned). Bad service, bad price for quality, the rest was just average.
