Asador 7 de Julio — Restaurant in Madrid

Wow! After a week spent in Lavapiés on the night before heading back to the US my partner and I decided to stay closer to the airport to make getting up for the flight that much easier, we’d had a variety of incredible food. Originally we planned to go to a vegan Peruvian inspired restaurant back downtown, “healthy meal” before a day of travel, well we are SO happy we did not wind up doing that. Neither of us speak nearly enough Spanish to compliment this restaurant the way that we want to. Service was incredible, the food was impeccable- I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to eat lamb any other way. Our server Jamie was fabulous and although there was a language barrier it didn’t make service any different. We work for an airline, thank God, so we have the fortune of being able to return in the near future and we certainly plan on it. We are now expert cider pourers and we will be talking about this meal until the next time it’s in our mouths. Seriously, thank you so much! Incredible exit to a wonderful city- we love...

Stopped here on our last night in Madrid before flying home. Was hoping for a good "last meal" before we left after a week of eating well in the area. This ended up being one of our most memorable meals and was nothing short of a feast. The staff was excellent and more attentive than most places we had eaten at. They took time to explain menu items and make recommendations and went over and above to be sure our experience was great.

We opted for a bit more expensive meal than we normally seek out and at the end of the night I was thinking this may be one of the few times where I feel I got everything and more for the money and would have been happy if it had cost more.

They brought out multiple courses throughout the night and each one was delicious. Even tried some new stuff I would not normally order. Very satisfied with our meal.

If you're staying near the airport for a flight the next day, don't hesitate to skip the hotel restaurants and go right...

Absolutely phenomenal dining experience. Didn't have a chance to take pictures as we dug straight in. A full octopus?!?! Unreal. Honestly the best food we've eaten since coming to Madrid. We're staying at the Marriott and the place surrounding the hotel is very industrial. To find this was so unexpected! We feel very lucky to have chosen to come here instead of heading into the centre. Not to forget you can help yourself to the cider inside the huge barrels to the side of the restaurant. Please come here if you're in the area. You won't be disappointed! Between 4 of us we had the ham croquettes, Octopus, duck fois gras, traxtillo, lamb shoulder, sucking pig and cod loin pil pil. Wayyyy too much food but we made a great effort. Had to bring some home with us. 10/10 for everything. Definitely come here, we definitely will be before...
