Overall verdict: A good food stop if you love rich tasting food!
Food: A wide variety of food such as grilled pig ears, Veal, Tripe, cured beef. It can get a bit rich so I would recommend getting the vegetable stew and other veggie dishes. Take note, if you want to order their famous suckling pig, you will have to order it at least a day in advance!

The servers are extremely friendly but they do not speak english (Pointing at your choice and double checking with the waiter really goes a long way to ensure you got the...

We were charged 2,8€ for a bottle of water even tho it wasn't in the drink list in the menu, so when the waiter asked if we wanted water we thought it would be free like almost everywhere. Young waiter was really kind, older ones were kind of rude. Tortilla was ok, nothing special, but At least it was fresh. We also ordered Callos a la Madrileña which we didn't like but I think it's a matter of personal preference. Portions of "Raciones" are small. Would give 2,5 stars if it...
