"Great first experience, we were celebrating my mother-in-law's birthday and they booked a table at La Máquina Caleido. This place is espectacular; from the ample space to the decoration. Surrounded by floor to ceiling windows, it's light and welcoming. The food is to die for, with vegetarian options (not that much for vegans I'm afraid). For starters we ordered the degustación de croquetas, artichokes and calamares. As mains, we ordered fabada, callos, fried haddock and the vegetarian rice. The food quality was outstanding, the rice (our main dish) was cooked to perfection, but everybody commented for exceptional the food was. And the wine, oh my goodness, if ordering red, please get a bottle of Ramon Bilbao, delicious! I wholeheartedly recommend this place, I'm just so sad I was just visiting Madrid as we live in London. But this will definitely be my place to go to next time we visit my in-laws in Madrid. The service was also outstanding, I cannot thank Mercedes and Michelle enough! They were amazing hosts and made my mother-in-law's birthday one to remember when they arrived with her dessert decorated with a huge sparkle stick. Mercedes, gracias por el abrazo al final de la comida. Nos vemos pronto, prometido. You guys rock!"
