This was our first visit and for the price point we won't go back. The chairs we sat on were old and wobbly. My wife pinched her finger between the chair seat and the legs when she grabbed the chair to scoot herself up to the table from the large gap. Service wasn't attentive and the food was over priced. My pork chop was $50. My wife's $45 NY steak was thin and grisley. Horrible quality. The restaurant very dated with a small parking lot.

Very nice to outstanding restaurant - service and food excellent! Prices are quite a bit too high and greater than the value of the service, food, and experience.

Excellent! Definitely an enjoyable experience. The menu offers several options, with extra specials the evening we were there, Food was prepared to perfection.- a salmon pate’, garbanzo bean soup topped with chorizo and a pork chop entrée totally delicious. Our server was great, knowledgeable, offered great suggestions, when asked. She was attentive, but allowed us time to enjoy. Highly recommend!

We have been to Cafe Madrid many times and always end up doing several Tapas for the meal because they are so delicious. This time we did entrees (the Chilean Sea Bass and Salmon with Mango Chimichurri and both were excellent. It will be hard to decide what to get next time! (& server Danny was fabulous! Probably the best server we’ve had there)
