Public Madrid Reviews
La atención de todo el personal del restaurante fue magnífica. Llegamos tarde por un imprevisto, avisamos por teléfono y fue todo genial: empatía, comprensión, la comida, bebida y el servicio muy bien, muy buena relación calidad-precio y el servicio fue rápido, muy educado y agradable, además de diligente. Muy recomendable. Volveremos.
Mi acompañante pidió un menú de fin de semana y eligió Berenjenas Crujientes con salsa Sweet Chilli y Lasaña de Bogavante, de postre Tim Baon (helado de turrón con crema catalana y salsa de chocolate caliente. Yo pedí Calamares a la plancha lacados en salsa teriyaki y calabacines con puré de patatas y tirabeques. Todo súper bueno. La atención de 10, muy agradables. Repetiremos seguro.
Hemos vuelto a Public por tercera vez, pero esta ocasión fue para cenar, y la experiencia ha sido incluso mejor de lo que recordábamos. Nos sorprendió muy positivamente que también ofrezcan menú por la noche, algo que no es tan habitual y que se agradece. De primero pedimos tres platos: unos huevos rotos con jamón y dos cremas de marisco. Todo llegó en su punto, con buena presentación y sabor casero. Los huevos rotos estaban especialmente sabrosos y la crema de marisco tenía una textura suave y muy bien equilibrada. De segundo optamos por dos hamburguesas y una lasaña de bogavante. Las hamburguesas eran jugosas y con ingredientes de calidad, y la lasaña fue una auténtica sorpresa: generosa, bien elaborada y con un sabor espectacular. Aunque la comida estuvo muy rica, lo mejor de la noche fue el trato del servicio. Atentos, amables y pendientes sin agobiar, hicieron que la cena fuera aún más agradable. En resumen, Public sigue siendo un acierto. Buena comida, buen ambiente y un servicio que marca la diferencia. Sin duda volveremos.
PUBLIC @public_restaurante Comida económica y con una calidad increíble en pleno centro de Madrid por 20-25€ es posible en este restaurante 😍 Con una propuesta muy variada para todos los gustos, platos con cantidades enormes y una calidad y presentación exquisita 🤤 Además la decoración es preciosa y la atención muy buena. 📍Calle del desengaño, Madrid
A pesar de ir sin reserva, nos han dado una mesa, donde hemos disfrutado de una muy buena comida y un trato del personal perfecto. Sin duda lo recomiendo. Entre semana tienes dos menús, uno del día y otro de temporada. Precio asequible y cantidades adecuadas para no quedarte con hambre.
Cada vez que vengo a Madrid, siendo de Málaga, tengo clarísimo dónde comer: Restaurante Public. La atención es excepcional, siempre amables y pendientes de todo. El servicio es rápido y súper profesional. Y qué decir de la comida… ¡deliciosa! Platos con muchísimo sabor, bien presentados y de calidad. Es un sitio al que siempre vuelvo porque nunca decepciona. Recomendadísimo. Siempre salgo encantada.
Really lovely restaurant. My food was tasty, perfect temperature. Great portion sizes and incredible value for money. Decor is warm and simple. Service was friendly and efficient. Will return
Amazing value for food. Lobster lasagne only 14euro - highly deffoo recommend. Peace and love. Love Madrid because of this restaurant would come back again.
Very nice tapas and main courses. We had salmon and risotto, both were great
My wife and I went to Public for dinner on our last night in Madrid. Friendly greeting without a reservation. Restaurant was quiet and we had a nice table next to a window. Staff were attentive but did not rush us. My wife and I both chose the menu of the day option which in hindsight was a bit of an error for that time of night as the meal sizes were very generous in our opinion. Each course was delicious and the set price was very good value as it also included bread and a drink. We really enjoyed our night at Public and would highly recommend it.
Could not recommend Public enough. We visited Madrid during our holiday in Alicante and only had one night in the capital. We found Public and decided to head there based on what we had seen online. Incredibly surprised at the amazing atmosphere, impeccable service and absolutely fantastic value for money on the food. I would come back in a heartbeat and would recommend to anyone looking to enjoy a good Spanish meal with friends, family or a business associate.
Very good spanish food restaurant, fast serving, daily menu is cheap, more than enough and very tasty. They are very kind and ready to help, especially Mickey,one of the waiters. We came back for having lunch there every day and I strongly recommend.
I have been going to this restaurant every day for a week now for the menu del dia and it always exceeds expectations. The menu del dia is only €11.65, and the food is always delicious. They also don't salt the food as heavily as other spanish restaurants which makes the experience even better.
This place was great. Good service, great cozy atmosphere as it describes. Menu is Mediterranean with a flair of everything for anyone. My wife had the spinach cannolis that were rich in flavor but tasty. The appetizers are actually the way to go here. Plentiful and you can share them with one another very easily. Portions are good. Great value of a place. Ordered a Vodka very cold and straight up Martini. They nailed it. This place is awesome.
Quick helpful service. V pleasant ambience. Best chicken Tikka masala I have had for my taste and right size potion. Amazing value at 11 Euro..Great desert.

This is a lovely restaurant with great food and very attentive and helpful staff. We enjoyed our meals and the service was excellent. Our waiter, from the Philippines was excellent. We also …
The venue was nice and not loud. The customer service was good. As for the food, the bread that came with the olive oil was hard. I wouldn't get that again unless the bread was fresh. The salmon and veggies tasted good, but could've tasted better if it was not too greasy. So I had the wash the food down with red tea.
Good quality food at very decent prices. Great atmosphere, fantastic decor and professional service. Menu is only ok, just a mix of small pieces. I would order "a la carte" instead, much better value. Dislikes: tables near to each other; all goes very fast, they work to reduce the time of table rotation
Nice food, with good quality and fair prices. You must eat a first and a main, otherwise you'll be hungry. Starter - choose the salmon nest (amazing) or the carpaccio. Main - entrecôte is always a safe choice, but it was medium quality (too much grease and nerves) Dessert - amazing banana tart 👌🏾
The plates were served barely warmed on cold dishes. The food was cold by the time that it was served. The restaurant was mostly empty on a Sunday evening, only 3 tables occupied.

Comida escasa y poco abundante. La calidad de la comida es buena pero en cada plato poca cantidad para lo que se paga tanto en entrantes como en platos a la carta. Conocía este restaurante desde hace años pero ya no es igual. El servicio es lento estuvimos 15 minutos esperando hasta que vinieron a preguntarnos qué íbamos a comer y beber. No volveremos a repetir.
Restaurante muy bonito y acogedor, buena atención. Hemos venido porque nos lo habían recomendado pero realmente la comida no ha sido lo esperado. Una pena porque veníamos con muchas expectativas, no es que esté mala pero varios de los platos por el precio que tenían sí que esperábamos una mejor calidad, la ensalada de burrata no tenía sabor alguno, ponía que venía con tomates asados y no lo estaban, y el tataki de atún tampoco sabía a nada. Lo mejor fueron los entrantes pero aún así nada sorprendente
It was recommended by a family member. Hes a local resident. The place was great, food was well prices for portions however waiters and bar service was weak. Would go again, but wait around and study tp seat in a good waiter area if that is even available. They offer "free bread" which was great, but later saw $1€ charge a piece in the bill. The waitier didn't remove the charge as he was not the one that served it. Felt "nickel and dimed"

De todo lo que pedimos, solo me gustó el café. La berenjena fría. La crema de marisco sabía a fumé de paella. Si estaban buenas, pero nos encontramos un pelo en una de ellas. La lasaña de bogavante, dos láminas de pasta, nadando en un baño de caldo. El segundo lo trajeron muy tarde después de haber comido el primero. Yo pedí pato y estaba templado, además la ciruelas un poco pasadas. La hamburguesa estaba pasable. El postre de crema catalana con helado de turrón, no lo recomiendo. En definitiva, es un lugar que creo que no volveré, lo único salvable es el ambiente del restaurante es muy bonito
Starter was good but when only one of us had one, the food simply came whenever they wanted. The steak was woefully undercooked, actually raw in places despite asking for a “medium”. Start to finis…
