Restaurante Asturias — Restaurant in Madrid

Really bad everything, first we had to wait 1:30 hours because they were cleaning the kitchen, finally when the food came, the “Pote Gallego” of my friend was pretty good, the “spaghetti bologna” was too bad without any taste of fresh tomatoes, it was made with only tomatoes paste... then the second dishes was awful both of them, my garlic chicken was too dry or old, or both of them, and with a lot of oil in the dish, and my bacalao fish on tomato sauce was pretty normal, the fish was ultra-frozen or frozen for long time before be prepared, nothing fresh cause I’m a big fan of fish, and bacalao is my fav fish, it wasn’t good... and the fries potatoes that came with both of second dishes was old and sticky... the only good was the desserts (whisky cake and flan) and the drinks, it seems more to be a place for drink that for eat, the kitchen is very bad, more into bar than restaurant, wouldn’t recommend for people who want to eat something nice or something normal at least... but would recommend for have drinks, and the waiter was kind and nice, I mean the service was good... bad is the chef or whatever they can...

They will take care of you! Take care of them, sit at the bar ♥️ 6 drinks 20...
