   Lost its past allure. One tapa cold, one seemed frozen to frier, one bland, and one low quality seafood. Disappointing. .

   Poor front of house management. Chaos in the waiting area with noone performing reception. Several disgruntled patrons left after their meals being chased by servers for not leaving tips. Left without being seated after waiting 20 minutes with no contact from host.

   They did not have our reservation ready, and after we waited for an hour to be seated they didn't have the meal we had made in the reservation (they had an option to reserve specifically). We even called the day before to make sure everything was in order and ready for us and they had said yes. It made for a lousy Mother's Day experience.

   The tables nearest me had three different languages being spoken. It felt like I was back in Spain eating with family. I was sad I couldn’t find Pan con tomate and anchovies on the menu but what I did find on the menu was made beautifully.

   Beautiful atmosphere - I loved the artwork and other decor, wonderful food - the paella was well worth the price and ordering ahead, great service.

   I had the chicken soup and took a quart home with me. It was delicious. I also enjoyed the Mediterranean salad. It was huge and I took half of that home as well. I would have preferred the option of half a salad or perhaps a half sandwich and half salad. Service was good but a bit slow. Not enough servers.

    The entier experience was excellent. The server, Craig, was personable, professional and attentive. The food was great, we had the brussels sprouts, paella, and one of us had the flan for desert. One of the marks of a good restaurant, for me, is the coffee (especially in Utah!). It was strong and hot. Highly recommended.

    We hadn't been to Cafe Madrid for more than 2 years because of the pandemic and a previous experience when we had a reservation and waited 1hr 15min before finally leaving without being seated. Everything went smoothly this time. The service was wonderful. The food is good but not the exceptional quality we had experienced previously.

    I feel like this place is stuck in its past, former glory. The service was ok though not exceptional, and the food was the same. Very traditional 90’s style. Lots of heavy cream, basic flavors etc. seafood was over cooked and not delicate at all. The room itself is lovely but it presents itself as a white glove type environment and the staff simply haven’t been trained to that expectation. The price for three of us with 2 glasses of the cheapest wine was $230. That’s at the top end of slc dining without the follow through.

    I don’t think they know if they’re trying to be Spanish or Italian or what, but not used to seeing lasagna on the menu at a Spanish restaurant. Food is mediocre at best.

    The only thing that prevented me from rating this restaurant was the service and ambiance. The menu reads like a Spanish restaurant but the food is anything but that. All the food is covered in heavy sauces, which is completely counter to Spanish food. The flavors are a poor take-off on Spanish food as well. I don’t recommend this restaurant.

    Service was good, food is ok. It says on their website that they have half priced tapas on Tuesday, but we were informed at the end that that is not a current offer, they should update that, it would have changed how we ordered.

    Salmon with mango chimichurri sauce was delicious! The salmon was cooked perfectly and the flavors were delightful. NY steak was cooked great and topped with savory chimchurri sauce. The only issue is the steak quality. The cut was very fatty and for $40 a plate we were expecting better. The service was great.

    Food is excellent! Never had a bad meal here. The ambiance is nice but the seats need more cushion its like your sitting on a board. If you want to spend time and enjoy your meal you leave with a bruised bottom.

    Great restaurant. Casual elegant dining. Four of us tonight, we ordered all tapas selections, 8 in total plus dessert so we could sample several different food items. Each dish was prepared just right, very tasty, and each big enough for all 4 of us to try. The dishes were brought to the table as they were prepared so you could try one or two things to enjoy before the next one arrived. We liked everything so much, we could not decide on a favorite when the meal was done. Dessert was great also, again trying and sharing different selections. Service was excellent also, our server knew the menu well and helped us decide on a few of the selections. Definitely will be back again and again.

    We received the hostess as our waitress who clearly had no interest in serving. She was not very helpful and somewhat rude. When an incorrect app was brought out she eventually came over, 10 minutes later, and said she would take it off the bill. She was not apologetic or cared. In the end it was still on the bill and we had to find a new sever to take it off as she had gone missing for 5-10 minutes after dropping off the check. Our one app we did get was - 2/5 Duck breast entree was - 3.5/5 Scallop and shrimp entree was - 4/5

    The food was good but the service was lacking. The server wasn't familiar with the wine list. My entree arrived 10 minutes before my dates entree. The server didn't check on us until the meal was over. I would have ordered another glass of wine given the opportunity. The prices are a little steep for the kind of service we received.
