Cafe De Paris L'entrecote - Madrid

Muy bueno. Menú cerrado donde solamente puedes degustar su fantástico filete con patatas fritas con su mítica salsa. Y de primero una ensalada con un aliño riquísimo.

Good dinner, not as fancy as I expected, the food was nice and well served. Service was OK, nothing to say, but I enjoyed the meat, no surprise.

I can’t comment on the in restaurant service as we used Deliveroo. We asked for the meat to be delivered with no sauce, as our kids have both allergies and don’t like sauces. This was part of a family meal, where we were ordering from another restaurant. They ignored the comments and served it with sauce, ruining the evening for all. When we called the restaurant they at first tried to excuse why they included the sauce, before finally apologising and saying there was nothing they could do. If the in restaurant service is like this stay away. It’s stupid as if the kids had enjoyed the meal, we would have returned, and as you can see from my other reviews, we like good food.

Sometimes it's best to do what you are good at and only that. This place knows entrecote (AKA New York strip). And the offering is as simple as that. 24 Euros get you a piece of meat, on a bed of herbal butter sauce placed on top of a warmer and fries. Salad, or to be specific, the dressing deserves it's own praise. I am not a big fan of leaves, but with their dressing I was tempted to lick the plate clean. So the only real choice is the level of steak doneness and the wine to assist the digest. The place gets really busy, really fast and waiters (only 2 of them) do wonders to serve all. With that, I recommend booking in advance. We got lucky (ignorance is a bliss), but considering the size of the place, it was a fools luck.

So a lot of people go to Entrocote cafe de Paris because we expect the same quality of food. There are no surprises as the menu is always the same you just have to pick how ur meat is cooked. Well this time was a bit disappointing to be honest as the staff were so loud with banging and carrying wine bottles fro lm the floor up to the ground floor were the tables are, just arranging plates with loud banging without any regards to the people dining. Honestly I didn’t feel valued as a customer. Furthermore it was the first time I got my meat covered with creamy sauce that we had to wait for a few minutes to melt but that meant our “saignant” meat would be more cooked !! Would I recommend going there maybe if u are craving Entrocote but I have to warn you it was expensive as a table for 3 including one glass of house wine and no dessert came up to 80€ without the tip! The crowd as well wasn’t the fancy sophisticated one you find at other European Entrocote so here you have it.
