This was recommended by our hotel on our first night in Madrid. The place opens only at 8pm and was already full at 8h15. On other nights we noticed lineup. We were very happy with the food. It was tasty and properly cooked. More importantly, the price was reasonable. It is mostly patronized by locals. Our friends tried it also... More

Looks are deceiving....the place is nicely decorated but sadly the food was not as tasty. Went during lunch time and there was a crowd of people waiting so we put our name down and walked around before coming back. The waiters/waitresses helped us decipher the spanish menu though just the lunch 3-course special as she didn't seem friendly enough to... More

We (a family owith 2 children) went there on April 20. We saw the restaurant on LonelyPlanet's guide. When we arrived it was closed. It opened on 8.15 pm. When we saw people flooding we decided to wait in the queue. We were sat on a table. The area is well decorated and pleasant. The waiter who came to take... More

Our party of 4 visited La Finca de Susana on a Friday night in february. The restaurant does not take advance bookings so we arrived at 8PM when it was opening. A number of people were waiting to go in but we were shown to a table almost immediately. The restaurant was filling up quickly and soon became busy, with... More

This restaurant is truly a gem. It has great ambiance and the food is fantastic. We walked in with no reservation at around 9:30 p.m. and they sat us immediately. We ordered a spinach and mushroom crepe that was the best we had ever had. I ordered the crispy chicken and it turned out to be ground chicken wrapped in... More

We queued up one evening to wait for the doors to open, and were very glad we did. Food was excellent, such a varied menu, and unbelievably cheap! Wine was also very good price. It was noticeable that "us tourists" queued up to get in when the place opened in the evening, then the locals started coming in when the... More

This restaurant is basically providing a pleasant table-clothed environment, but the service is hurried (focused on table turns in a way you would not expect on the continent) and the food is the standard meat-and-veg fare that is designed to be served to hundreds in a banquet hall. There is no charm to this dining experience. Note that the restaurant... More

Another one of these over-inflated, over-rated tourist traps that take your money and give you little in return. Keep away. We recieved burnt food and were treated poorly by the staff.We Couldnt finish our wine because they pushed us out.Better off going to McDonalds. For the same prices you can eat much better in Madrid!! Void it! . .

We enjoyed the food in this restaurant. We had heard about it from other people and, though it was not amazing, it was certainly adequate for the price.
