I love Café de Oriente. I’ve been a few times and each time a treat. On my recent visit, exceptional service. One of my Madrid favorites.

Beautiful building and interior décor in a fantastic location over looking the Royal Palace. We were lucky enough to get one of three private areas which were very special and splendid. Food and service first class, it became the highlight of our stay in Madrid. Taking all the above into account the prices were reasonable. Highly recommended.

I was shocked when I checked my records and realized it was 10 years since I'd last eaten here. It's a delightfully ornate room in a premier area of Madrid, so the the food would only have to pass muster, but in fact was excellent. Top class ham with a simple but amazing tomato puree and toasted bread - heaven. By the numbers sliced steak with salt, another Spanish classic. The house Rioja by the glass was impeccable. And not too expensive a bill at the end. I must re-visit in a lot less than another 10 years!

The diner Tapas Menu was delicious and plentiful! We were very pleasantly surprised! Excellent ambiance! We sat outside and admired the Palacio Real and lovely plaza by the Opera, as well. Not noisy, which is a plus anywhere when you are dining outdoors. Inside the restaurant, where I have been on other occasions is a lovely old world ambiance. Great friendly service, as well. I highly recommend it!

We travel often where there is a language barrier. Most everyone has always been friendly and made their best effort to communicate effectively. Not here. They had zero patience with us. Since we had the language barrier, we pointed to each item on the menu we requested..they repeatedly brought us the wrong items. When we told them, they were rude and reluctantly accommodated our our requests. The greeter was very pleasant and the location was amazing. I would not recommend this restaurant.

Food and location were great although they were let down by extremely poor service for this price range. We waited 15 minutes to see the menu while the waiter clearly ignored us. Food arrived reasonably quickly but we didn’t see the wine until half way through our meal at which point I complained to the waiter. He poured the wine without a word and brought the bread which was meant to be served before the main course. No apologies from anyone, I recommend saving money and eating elsewhere in hopes of a better service.

Lovely location opposite the palace so perfect end to our tour . Worried it might be a tourist trap but really nice meal at a fair price and drinks very reasonable too. Would go again .

Sorry but not worth the price you pay for the food and service. They do not have the wine they offer, food is COLD and if you have to visit the toilets….prepare for a bad experience

They are slow, they just do not have enough staff. Had to leave without finishing our dinner because it was already very late. We started at 20:00. and at 23:00 we were still awaiting for our dessert, that we booked & paid but never had.
