El Bund Restaurante — Restaurant in Madrid

Fantastic restaurant. The food is great, but the service and atmosphere is what really sets this restaurant apart. It's in an old house, so if you go with a group, you have an entire room to yourself. Restaurants in Spain can be very loud, but this really keeps the noise to a minimum. We got 2 menus for 4 people, and there were 9 of us, and they accommodated us with no problems. I have a shrimp allergy, and they made sure that there were options for every course that didn't have shrimp, and they made sure to tell me which one was safe for me to eat when they brought it. Staff was very attentive, removed dishes and refilled waters very quickly (which is not common in Spain). The food was absolutely delicious, and there was plenty for everyone. It's a pricey place for Spain, but it's very nice and perfect if you're looking for somewhere nice to go for...

Was expecting authentic Chinese food, but was disappointed with the amount of sugar in the dishes. I guess the restaurant was trying to serve less spicy to adapt to Spain but by losing all the authenticity is a pity.

We ordered sichuan style chicken and chineese egg plant cazuela and re-assured it will be spicy with the waitress. She promised it is spicy but wasn’t. Extremely sweet and soggy egg plant was a moodkill. Chicken was ok, but most of restaurants get this this one right.

We also ordered sichuan style wantun, which was fresh but it had almost no chilli oil as it is supposed to have as in their own menu. We asked for extra spicy sauce which was decent.

For a guía Repsol 2020,2023, 2024 restaurant this was really a disappointment. Price range was to the upper end, which is not worth the quality and taste of...

Restaurante de cocina china, especialmente dirigido a una clientela española, acomodada económicamente, y que no dispone de muchos conocimientos de gastronomía china, más allá de los rollitos de primavera y de los tallarines tres delicias. Sólo en este caso se entiende que a la gente no le importe gastarse una media de 35 eur por persona, en comida de Shanghai y Zhejiang, completamente normalita, de esas que puedes encontrar en muchisimos otros locales de Madrid (tanto en la zona centro como en Usera) por menos de la mitad.

Eso sí, el local es pijito: ubicado cerca de Arturo Soria, y decorado con maderitas, varios salones privados, bonita terraza y un jardín interior que simula en miniatura a los originales de Suzhou. Los platos vienen bien presentados. El camarero parece sacado de la mafia yakuza. Te atiende engominado con traje, corbata y pinganillo en la oreja (que seguro es de pego). Y son estos argumentos (y no los propios de la calidad de la comida) los que este restaurante utiliza para cobrar verdaderas burradas por algunos platos especiales (como algunos mariscos y vísceras de importación)

La comida no es que sea mala, pero desde luego resulta cara para lo que realmente es.

Si te gusta la verdadera gastronomía china de calidad, déjame darte un consejo: Nunca escojas restaurantes que ofrezcan menús de degustación en su carta, pues siempre serán restaurantes más enfocados hacia la clientela occidental y, por tanto, tratarán siempre de sacar mayor beneficio.

Madrid es una ciudad prolífera en reataurantes chinos auténticos (dirigidos a la clientela china adinerada) y que son mil veces mejor que este local. (Por poner un ejemplo: el "Jin Lai" en la c/...
