El Buda Feliz 1974 — Restaurant in Madrid

If you want to meet the rudest Chinese waitress then come here. If you get her serving you and your table then go to the bathroom and pray that god will come save you. We come in with my 3 year old child.

Us : Hi do you have a high chair? Rude Chinese waitress : You want high chair or he can sit on the inside couch seats? Us : Yes we would like a high chair Rude Chinese waitress : You want a high chair? Us : Yes do you have a high chair for a child? Rude Chinese waitress : He can’t sit inside? Us : No we want a high chair.

Rude Chinese waitress goes and angrily gets a high chair. I talked to the owner and she is so nice but with a worker like this, what is the point? Also if you ask for a coke and they bring you a coke and then someone at your table says I also want a coke, you risk your life asking for another one. We did that and the other waitress gave the nastiest look like we are making them work too hard getting another coke. I still left a $25 cash tip with a bill under $180 and then rude Chinese waitress thanked me so much. I gave it to you because you obviously need to go buy some manners. Also if you don’t like your job, quit. When people come in you smile and give customer service and don’t question your customer making a request as simple as a high chair...

I have been to many Chinese restaurants in Spain but not many or if any as good as this one. Right from the get go as I enter, the hostess/waitress greeted my family with warmth and genuinity. You can sometimes tell when they just greet you with plastered smile, but that doesn't apply to them here at least for the lovely waitresses. The atmosphere is definitely more of a contemporary Chinese than the typical traditional style, which I really like. We and especially my daughter were given a lot of attention. The real star of the show though, is the food. I couldn't be happier with my freshly made dim sum. My wife had never eaten dim sum before, so coming to this restaurant is setting the bar sky high for her. In general, we absolutely loved our food to that extent that we ate everything to show appreciation for the love and care the chef has put in preparing the food for us. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to any connoisseur in Chinese food. It is not often I think it's worth paying more than double for anything that taste just a little better than the cheaper alternative. However, it goes without saying: you get what you pay for. El Buda Feliz makes you satisfied and that satisfaction is worth the...
