 The food is the star |
Calle De Augusto Figueroa 47 Madrid, Madrid 28004 Spain +34 91 521 4256 |
This place is run by Mónica Bardem who has named the dishes on the menu after movies that members of her clan—Pilar, Javier, and Carlos Bardem - have starred in. The house speciality is cod and ham croquettes. The house wine is reasonably priced, and the rest of the wines on offer come from Spain's most famous wine-growing regions: Ribera del Duero, Valdepeñas, Rioja and Penedés. There is a set menu of the day, and you can choose from two starters and two main courses. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Tastes of Argentina & Uruguay |
Calle de Barbieri 10 Madrid, Madrid 28004 Spain +34 91 532 7042 |
Renowned specialists in grilled red meats from Argentina and Uruguay, this kitchen also prepares a range of its own fresh pastas. The restaurant stays open until very late, haunted by hungry bohemians and night owls. There's live Latin American music on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights and shows for the kids during Sunday lunch. The waiters dress up like typical Argentinian gauchos (cowboys) to serve in the colonial style dining room. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Eat Lebanese food and watch the belly dancers |
Serrano, 213 Madrid, Madrid 28016 Spain +34 91 457 6915 |
A belly dancer sinuously moves her hips while customers slip banknotes into her skirt in the semi-darkness. You don't have to go as far as Lebanon for this show, just northern Madrid. There is even a summer patio for outdoor eating in warm weather. The restaurant prepares a buffet with over 20 starters to choose from along with cous cous and kebabs for the main course. The house speciality is Stuffed Lamb or there is a sampler menu if you can't make up your mind (drinks not included). The wine list has a good selection of Spanish varieties to choose from as well as traditional Lebanese drinks like Ksara wine or Arach, a liqueur made from distilling grapes and anise.

Dine and watch a drag show |
Calle Gran Vía 1 Madrid, Madrid 28013 Spain +34 91 522 8764 http://www.gulagula.net/ |
A bright and brash concept restaurant with modernist decor that has become increasingly popular over the last few years as more and more people want to be entertained as they eat out. It offers magnificent views over central Madrid, spectacular live shows (including drag queens) and an excellent fixed-price salad bar (you can also choose from an imaginative a-la-carte menu). It caters particularly well for large groups on special occasions like hen parties and stag nights and the stage shows really are a riot. When big groups are in it can be rowdy and noisy and you might even be dragged up on stage yourself. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Rock 'n' Roll music & food from the USA |
Paseo de la Castellana, 2 Madrid, Madrid 28046 Spain +34 91 436 4340 http://www.hardrock.com/locati... |
Like all the restaurants in this chain, you'll find it decorated with rock and roll memorabilia - guitars, leather jackets and gold discs. It serves decent American and Tex-Mex food and drinks from two seperate bars. Hamburgers and ribs are the specialities. It's always full of tourists and there's a small stage where live bands perform to spice up the atmosphere. What makes this restaurant different is its wonderful outdoor terrace overlooking Plaza de Colón that's not to be missed in summer. You can buy from the range of attractive merchandizing in the adjacent store, open most of the day. Review © 2007, Wcities |
