Cafeteria La Plaza - Madrid

Ordered some calamari, and my friend didn’t even try them just by the look. I ate two of them after taking the grease off with a napkin, my tummy started aching. We informed the waiter who took them away upset. Not only he ignored our feedback about the state of the dish, but he almost told us off for informing him. The waiter is actually the owner of the restaurant, and he is more indigestiouos than his food

The waiter was patient and cared to help no Spanish speakers (he didn't know English -but was patient). The staff was helpful but there was a lot of activity in the bar, seemed very local and rowdy but was an experience overall. We ordered the antricot which I ordered by default since I didn't understand the menu. However, it was yummy and it came with potatoes (everything in Spain seems to as far as I can tell Haha) peppers. The rest of the menu I'm clueless about. The napkins seemed to be made of plastic so hope you brought some napkins in your bag, but aside from that bathroom was clean and overall pleasant and local vibe.

I came for dinner at around 11pm, asked if they served rabo de toro (they do! But it wasn’t on the menu. Love this place — homey, mainly local (not touristy crowd, plenty of outdoor tables, in a quiet end of the street, friendly wait staff, and hearty food.

Camarero muy agradable y atento... Comimos muy bien por un precio más que razonable... Incluso nos ofrecieron unas empanadas para esperar. Lugar sencillo pero acogedor. Nada que ver con los estafadores frente al museo Reina Sofía...

Bar autentico. Pidan el bocadillo de calamares o el de la casa, despues de una jerga va de lujo
