Tablao de la Villa

I had the pleasure of attending the show on April 1st at 9:45pm. There wasn’t much crowd in attendance so I was worried that the group performing may not be that into it. But was I wrong. Such a wonderful performance, so much passion. The dancing, singing, all exceptional. Highly recommend to all to attend this flamenco show!

Wow, stunning flamenco show. The performers were absolutely amazing!!! You could tell how dedicated they were and how well they worked together as a team. Worth every euro spent!! The food was pretty good too and the service was amazing. A must do if you’re visiting Madrid!

The food was fantastic! I highly recommend the bacon strips and the pork cheeks! The show was also great along with the service. Absolutely recommend!

Unfortunately, it was a very disappointing experience. We were misled by the rating and positive comments but ended up attending a show where we were rushed to our seats, and no one even asked if we wanted to see the menu — we had to ask for it ourselves. The waiter was rude and clearly unprofessional. Every table was so close to the others (obviously to fit more customers at the expense of comfort) that we could barely move. Our table was right next to the dancers, and I ended up with a terrible migraine from the excessive noise. The whole place felt tense, as if customers were expected to remain completely silent throughout. When the food arrived, we expected more — especially since the waiter told us that an entrée and a main course would be enough. The entrée was just a quarter slice of bread with a tiny strip of ham, and the main course was a small portion of salmon and pork, presented as if it were gourmet, but completely lacking in flavour. For the quality and quantity provided, both the food and the show were extremely overpriced. After the show, the lights came on and the same rushed, apathetic server immediately brought the bill without giving us the chance to ask about dessert options — even though there was still plenty of time before the next performance. It was made very clear that we were expected to leave. We walked out of the place hungry, with a migraine, extremely confused, and feeling completely scammed. This restaurant clearly sees customers only as a source of money, without any regard for the actual experience. I will say, however, that the dancers and musicians were truly talented and passionate. They deserve to be performing in a proper setting that respects their art and offers a much better atmosphere for both artists and audience. I truly hope more people write honest reviews, so others aren’t deceived and can support businesses that actually put in the work and passion — not this one, which has clearly lost all respect and care for the people who keep it running.

Great show, great atmosphere..food is delicious and the service is 10/10. Highly recommend

My 23 year old son and I came here on the recommendation of my friend who has lived in Madrid for 40 years. We had a very good 3-course meal that included two drinks (I had braised leeks, salmon, and cheesecake; my son had the burrata salad, pork cheeks, and cheesecake). The flamenco dancers were excellent, accompanied by a trio (one guitar and two singers). I would highly recommend the dinner and the show!
