    We had an outstanding experience at Macarena. Every dish we ordered was delicious, fresh, and full of flavor. We especially loved the hand-carved Jamón Ibérico and the squid ink rice/paella negra, which were both beautifully prepared and very memorable. The tapas were also great for sharing with our group, and everything felt authentic and well-balanced. The service was excellent as well. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made the whole dinner feel very comfortable. We would definitely come back and recommend this restaurant to friends.

    Very loud inside, reco outside seating. The food was quite good, the service a bit uneven and slow. Good patatas bravas, good ones are hard to find. Crab croquetas and gambas ajillo excellent. And the meal did not come close to breaking the bank. We’ll be back.
