Sophisticated Gourmet Eating Experience
Trasgu is located not far from Metro Valdebernardo, and the dominates a large open space close to the shopping centre Valdebernardo.
From the outside The restaurant dominates a large open terrace with cover from the sun, with seating arrangement for at least 15 tables offering diners the opportunity to dine outside. Large open windows present the restaurants position within the street.
From the Inside The restaurant has two sides, one for pure dining and the other for a more local bar dining experience both serving the same menu but with a different ambience. The fine dining part, offers a natural look with a very large blackboard showcasing different dishes. With an open area on the ground floor and a more intimiate dining experience on the 2nd floor, options for everyone.
The bar side is very chic and cosy with a good selection of modern tapas to choose from, standing at the bar or dining at one of the various seating options within the bar.
Menu The menu is split into two distinct areas, one offering a full al la carte menu and the other offering a menu del dia (daily menu) both of which are recommended. Fully diverse for most palates, with various meat options, vegetarian and salads which is a rarity in Madrid. The Mene del dia is also one of of fav options for lunch as it is quick and very yummy.
Prices Prices are competitive for the area, however the al la carte menu is a little more pricey as the food is prepared on a professional level with a lot of detail going into the preparation and presentation, exceptional value for money.
Food We have been frequently eating at the Trasgu for over 5 years and have always thoroughly enjoyed the food that has been served, always a surprise to return and see something different and believe me when I say this, seeing something different is a GOOD THING.
The menu del dia is great value and they offer something different each time, a menu fit for most palates. It is also clearly visible on a chalkboard on the wall outside the restaurant so you can choose before the waiter gets to you.
The al la carte menu is much more sophisticated offering a more gourmet experience with a large selection to choose from including meats, fish and vegetables. We always go for a mix so we can have a taste of each sharing culinary experiences within the group.
The food was just divine, every part of the eating experience was memorable and our taste buds were exploding with the quality of professionally prepared ingredients. The recommended dish from the group was the Tataki Salmon, which was totally yummy leaving us wanting more.
The deserts are also a signature quality of the Trasgu kitchen, preparing home made, taste bud squashing dishes. Our personal favourite was the Tiramisu, which left out taste buds wanting more.
Drinks Trasgu offer an incredibly large selection of wines both local and international. We had the opportunity to test a wine from Germany which was the cause of a good debate within our group as one of our Spanish friends frequently visits Germany and they are not famous for wines, however the waiter presented a bottle of German wine that surpassed his expectations and really surprised him at how tasty it was.
A big thank you to the waiting staff who are real food and wine experts offering skilled advice when necessary.
Customer Service Trasgu staff are incredibly professional and know what customer service is along with a high level of culinary experience including offering the right balance of drinks with food presented.
A heart warming thank you to all of the staff including the owner who goes beyond the call of duty ensuring everyone has a memorable eating experience.
Recommendations Fully recommended and you should go out of your way to visit the Trasgu as they offer something most other restaurants in Madrid cannot find, a true personality within the Restaurant industry backed up by years of experience serving incredible food with flawless staff.

Read moreHemos tenido una experiencia terrible. Reserve la mesa por internet a las 2pm, y llame para confirmar que era terraza. Cuando acudimos hoy a las dos, nadie vino a atendernos a la terraza. Tuve que levantarme a avisar al camarero de si nos podia atender. Cuando por fin vino a atendernos, ni nos explico el menu. Le pregunte sobre la ensalada y me contesto de malas maneras. Cuando vino a preguntarnos por el segundo plato a las 245pm nos dice que ya necesita que la mesa se quede libre porque hay gente esperando. Nos quedamos anonadadas ante este comentario despues del primer plato. Cuando pedimos el segundo plato, pedimos cafes y nos volvio a decir que ya necesitaba la mesa. No eran ni las 315pm. Pedimos hielo para el cafe 3 veces hasta que lo trajeron. El segundo camarero viene a decir que ya nos trae la cuenta porque necesita la mesa y le dijimos que habiamos reservado la mesa a las 2 y ern las 320pm, que desde cuando se come en una hora y pico. Respondio de muy mala forma, que la reserva era de 1-3. Nunca nadie me dijo eso antes, reserve por internet a las 2 y nunca hubo una mencion de limite de tiempo, ni cuando llame para reconfirmar la reserva. Su respuesta fue, "Pues quedense toda la tarde", de malas maneras. Despues de eso no vino nadie en 30 minutos a pesar de que pedimos la cuenta. Tuvimos que levantarnos a pagar a la barra y pedimos la cuenta y el camarero se lo dio a la chica de la barra en el mismo plan despota que habia estado. Encima nos intentaron cobrar de mas unos vinos que estaban incluidos como que eran fuera de la carta. Conclusion: No volvemos, a partir de ahora iremos a Casa Manolo que esta a dos cuadras y son mucho mas profesionales y agradables. Una lastima de camareros desagradables, despotas, maleducados y encima estafadores. El peor servicio que he recibido en...
