Antigua Casa Narcisa (Former Narcisa House)

In a tweet: Amazing cozy terrace, that invites to have a long and pleasent table talk. Ambience is the most remarkable quality; some dishes are good; above average, but not reaching the A.

Summary
Concept Comment
Overall Score 8.0
Price per Person 42€. Including a bottle of water (2,60€ -they don't have jars of tap water, which is bad, as Madrid water is great), 3 beers (2,70€ each), 2 bottles of wine (Campillo 2010, 21€ each), 5 desserts (5€ average) and a Gintonic (9€).

Seven&Six

In a tweet: Posh, modern and fashioned "cocktails and food gastrobar", where you can ask for "gastrotapas" (60% of the whole dish), so to try more dishes. A bit better than average, but not exceptional. A wannabe...

Summary
Concept Comment
Overall Score 7.2
Price per Person 44€. With 5 gastrotapas, 5 beers (3.5€ each) and a Mojito (5€ offer, not too good) and one more cocktail (Strawberry bellini- 10€).

Arrocería St. James (St. James Rice Restaurant)

In a tweet: Best rices I've tried in Madrid (and maybe in Spain), in a distinguished and pleasant restaurant in the heart of Madrid.

Summary
Concept Comment
Overall Score 9.1
Price per Person 65€. Including 2 beers (3.20€ each), white wine (a nice easy to drink Viñas del Vero Chardonnay -17€, score 9), 2 desserts and 2 peach liquors -to which we were not invited, despite the common tradition, 4€ each). Expensive for being rice (usually cheap), but worth the price.
