Fantastic experience dining here! My favorite part was watching the chefs put the finishing touches on the dishes right in front of you, and with the large mirror, you get to see all the details. The waiter was also incredible, he was funny, not too formal, and explained the dishes very well. The food is also very much up there, I loved every dish, and also the bread is fantastic too!

Perfection! One of the finest meals of my life. Innovative, filling, and delicious! Each dish was better than the last with a wide range of seafood + a little more. The lobster, the duck, the bread, the shrimp, the sauces, the EVERYTHING! Take me back!!!

Wonderful experience! My husband and I had the Matsuri menu, which was 15 set courses. There was an optional extra Wagyu course that my husband chose to add (45 EUR), I was too full. There were also petit fours and coffee at the end, but we were too full, so they boxed up the petit fours for us to take home. They also gave us copies of the menu and chocolates all beautifully packaged in a gift bag. Our main server printed a list of recommendations for us as well, after asking how long we were in Spain & where we were visiting, which was a lovely touch. We were seated at the counter (there's only 6 seats and they were taken by 3 couples, including us) which was a fabulous experience watching the action. You can feel the warmth of the fires but we were not at all hot. We ordered a cocktail/mocktail each from the list and asked for two wine recommendations, all of which were excellent. We would absolutely come again if in Madrid.

Outstanding, 3+ hour dining experience. The two Michelin stars are well deserved. We were greeted promptly by the reception staff and led down a modern, LED-lit tunnel into the dining room. It’s very cozy with a 6-person chef’s counter and two, 4-seat tables. We had the 14-course Omakase tasting menu. It’s a fusion of Japanese and Spanish influences with an emphasis on seafood…and of course smoke, for which the restaurant is named. With the exception of the duck, the courses were creative, beautifully presented and prepared, and thoughtfully explained by the staff (who seemed conversant in at least English, French, German and Spanish). The counter had a primary server who was knowledgeable, friendly and helpful with the wine selections - we had several glasses, but didn’t opt for the wine pairing(s) which are available. I liked that the chefs would occasionally come out to explain the ingredients and preparation for the dishes being delivered. Wines were very good and reasonably priced. Lots of local, seasonal ingredients in the dishes. Sauces were a highlight. Amazing execution and fun to watch the proceedings from the counter, with an overhead mirror of the prep area. Overall, a world-class dining experience. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Great Japanese-inspired place. The decoration is quirky and dark, comfortable and relaxed. The team are great professionals, and the service is flawless and friendly. The menu is inspired, with some memorable bites, a generally high level of taste and presentation (beautiful crockery), and a couple of courses that were not for us. Delicious desserts, which is rare in a japanese context. The price is severe, 250€ per person plus wine or drinks, but seems almost justified. All in all, a recommendable experience.
