| Last reviewed: Jun 2026 A bustling, well-run seafood house on Ponzano - oysters, Galician red shrimp, croquetas and Russian salad at the lively bar, plus a calmer dining room for fresh fish and serious cuts. Part of a respected Madrid group with real sourcing rather than tourist polish. The reliable classic anchor of the street.
