Restaurante Mamá Gastro Adventure — Restaurant in Tuineje

Forcing fancy .. Croquettes were delicious I have to admit. Bread fresh and soft, maybe slightly bitter, but still very good. And it went down hill from there. Lamb ravioli was just disappointing, tasted fine, could use some seasoning. Ink risotto was soooo salty! Very one note dish. Shrimp and octopus were cooked to perfection though. Thankfully I had mediocre vine to wash it down. Coffee was double roasted, undrinkable for me. But there are some people who like it out there. We had our expectations set high by the reviews. We left hungry and disappointed. Worst part was atmosphere. Place doesn't look all that nice, especially the plastic screens. Exactly the same as all the places around. But the stuff tried to act like it was so much more elegant. Server had trouble picking up one plate from the table, so we gave her a hand. Then she had trouble putting down another. So naturalny I tried to help. She literally janked it from my hand and gave me the nastiest look. "It's not this kind of place" look. It honestly made me laugh. After that point we were treated.. well.. in not the most polite way. But we kept our cool and smiled all the...

We were not overly impressed with the restaurant. The mushroom and truffle risotto was the best part. Fantastic dish with intense mushroom flavors.

The lamb ravioli was not ok/good. It lacked the lamb flavor wanted, and the “pasta” had more a consistency of puff pastry. The filling was also very doughy, almost felt like too much. Best part about this dish was the sauce which was 10/10.

Here for the tricky part. We ordered the burrata/carabineros special started of the day. It was presented by the staff during ordering, and we went for it. The fish itself was alright, burrata could have used more than pistachio to lift it up. The carabineros was ok. When we got the bill we noticed that this dish alone came with a price of €40. We asked about the very steep price, and got the explanation that this particular prawn is very sought after and a delicacy. I hope that this is not a tourist trap. Yes, we should’ve probably asked for the price of this dish before ordering it, but would’ve also been nice if they would have explained it to us.

Overall, it was an ok experience. Risotto was fantastic, ravioli was ok,...

Quite very disappointed:/ The place has been on my list for a few years, finally got to try out today for dinner. Empty space should have been a red flag. Not sure if owners/cook changed coz the food is below par, definitely not worth the money (40e pp with only one main to share). Good presentation, but quite tasteless. Entrees (Pulpo & Beef Tartar) came out VERY quick, too quick, however not even bread offered). Tartar had no flavour Seafood burger was also tasteless, sauces used were plain ketchup and spicy was just a Siracha. (Homemade chips as a side were good though) There's no "gastro" experience, no combination of flavours, no surprises. Choc salami for desert also did not amaze us :/

P.s. to the owner's comment: 21.30 not 22, why lie? The hour offered at your online reservation schedule, presuming allowing for a dining experience. If you think it's a stretch, don't offer it

No, bread wasn't...
