So it's my first time in Madrid and while I haven't been happy with the quality of much of the food I did find quite a few spots that cook food to perfection. Alaravea was one of those. A staff that is highly friendly and entertaining, highly familiar with their dishes and know how to recommend the right food and... More

My colleagues and I were looking for Spanish cousine in a cosy place. The server made really good recommendations on what to order. We took 3 starters (zucchini blossoms were great) and were told to take half portions of main dishes. For 3 women that was more than enough. At 9.30pm the place was overcrowded, luckily we had a reservation... More

We visited in May for dinner. The atmosphere of the restaurant was great, very authentic Spanish... The decor was also very Spanish and nice. There was a nice buzz about the place. Great choice of nibbles and variety of drink at bar... The food.... One word, AMAZING! Simply the best tapas I ever had, quality of food was superb and... More

Restaurant is very accommodating and will make great recommendations on what to order. Food was good (not the best we had in Spain), however the service was great and would make us go back to sample some of the other parts of the menu if we had a chance.

My husband and I enjoyed a lovely dinner at the Alcaravea Restaurant on Cea Bermudez, Madrid. The food was deliciously prepared, the wine excellent, and the servers and owner, Caesar, were all so very attentive. We sampled four appetizers and two entrees which was more than enough food! All the food was fresh and tasty, prepared with interesting cheeses and... More

I looked at reviews of restaurants near the hotel at which we were staying, and Alcaravea was #2 out of 4200. It deserves this rating. Our waiter gave much personal attention and recommendations. We had half portions of four half portions and were full from the generous portions. Try the fried zucchini blossom (tiny zucchini) and also the fried artichokes.... More

I am not gong to say too much as it has all been said by previous reviewers, the food and service are excellent and l believe that most of the waiters speak English and are very helpful in explaining what is available on the night. We ate one of the best pieces of Tuna that I have ever had in... More
