We ordered the suckling pig, which was entirely as good as others have said, and the roast chicken that was well seasoned, juicy and just the right amount of food with the included potatoes. We decided on a lunch reservation since I'd found a discount though one of their booking sites for specific seating times, but I can honestly say I think it would have been just as worth it at full price.

Centro can be touristy (pickpockets are unfortuately not unheard-of here), crowded, and sometimes gimmicky, but it is also the place to experience classic Madrid. Plaza Isabel II (also known as “Opera”) is smaller and a good meeting spot, and the stately Plaza del Oriente is the front yard of the Royal Palace. The nearby Plaza Mayor, completely enclosed by historic red buildings, is an ideal place to grab a bite to eat outside, amidst scores of tables and people out for a stroll. The iconic Puerta del Sol is the giant crossroads of the city and a must-see attraction at any time of the day. Some of these side streets are wide pedestrian shopping routes, and some are hidden, so it's possible to duck in and out of the bustle as desired.

Expansive plazas, local and foreign crowds, street performers, colorful lights, window shopping, restaurant signs promising the best paella, ham, and churros con chocolate- this is downtown Madrid, a collection of plazas interconnected by a network of side streets.
