Gustos Madrid Plaza Mayor — Restaurant in Madrid

I came to this location to check out the Paella. Well I think I’ve tasted better in my life before this one here. Located on Mayer Plaza and it is truly a tourist zone. Price is a little bit high €19 about and the beer cost four euros. There are places where you can buy a big beer for three euros so What can I say against that?

However, it’s quite nice to sit here. They have umbrellas that blow a light mist on you when it’s really hot it’s quite nice. Does cool you off.

I decided to go to the restrooms and went the wrong way and went downstairs and found that they have a nice sort of cave restaurant downstairs you see that in the short video I posted. Paragraph well I’m 50-50 on recommending that you come here, but I have to say it’s not bad. You got the atmosphere of the plaza and vibration of the city a little bit...

I went here last night and can't say I would recommend it to someone else. The food was okay. We had garlic mushrooms and paella. The former was flavourful, but the latter was quite bland.

The location is lovely but unfortunately has the drawback of people walking across the restaurant to ask patrons for money. I did see a waitress try to move on of these people on, but on the whole, I don't think they did enough to ensure that diners were left undisturbed during their meal.

Staff were a little forgetful and inattentive. I would have excused this if it was busier, but we ate quite early, and there weren't many other tables they were covering.

Sangria was nice. I would probably suggest having a little bite here and a drink just to get the atmosphere of the courtyard but, have your substantial meal...

We had a very pleasant experience at this restaurant, which we found on Google as well as TripAdvisor.

We are American tourists, there were three in our party, and a small dog in a stoller. They were willing to allow our dog into the reataurant, for which we were very grateful. We each had our own Paella, and tried three different kinds. We also had appetizers of the Jamon with bread, tomatoes, olive oil and salt, as well as the fried croquettes with ham.

The staff were very pleasant and accomodating, the ambience of the place was very nice (just touristy enough to accomodate the tourists while still seeming authentic to Spanish culture) and the prices were reasonable.

Exceeded our expectations, would recommend and would return if...
