Visitors will be shoulder to shoulder in this overcrowded spot that has earned a reputation as one of Madrid's best tapas bars. The kitchen pays special attention to detail and the recipes are inventive, ushering in a wave of change, and a whole new world of experimentation in tapas. There are only four desserts: chocolate cake, lemon tart, "angel" tart (a kind of angel food-like cake), and napoleon, all made from secret family recipes. There is a second location at Velasquez, 57 (off the Velasquez subway stop), as well.
