The staff were really wonderful and made the experience both informative and fun. I liked that everyone contributed to making the paella together, rather than each of us making our own individually. And the sangria was also delicious. Definitely recommend for larger groups

This is a class good for people who like to drink. The kids made a non-alcoholic version of sangria. We had a good time learning about making seafood paella. Indoor setting.

This was by far the best cooking experience we have done on a trip! Tony was very attentive and information and fun. Pedro took really great care of us as well! In total we had a group of 5 (3 of my family and couple from Italy). We all pitched in a cooked really delicious seafood paella and a chicken paella. It took us a minute to navigate to find the place since Apple maps did not clarify the location is in a building but we allowed plenty of time to get there. Highly recommend and my 20-something daughters enjoyed the class as well. If I ever come back to Madrid, I would do this again!

Wonderful night making paella with Yirelis! She taught us not only how to make the dish but the history. We also made sangria and we enjoyed a couple tapas. Such a fun evening!
Jane_W, May 2026
The class was very informative and fun. I learned enough to go home and make paella myself. It was very difficult to find. It would help if the directions were updated to be more clear.

One of our favorite experiences on this trip! We had a small, but great group. The King of Paella kept it very engaging. This is just the right amount of hands on cooking, learning and eating & drinking. We can’t wait to try making our own paella at home.

Very nice and thorough! We were lucky as we were the only ones there due to low season. Pedro did a great job.
Nicki_G, Jan 2026
My sister and I absolutely loved this experience. Not only did we learn so much about authentic paella and sangria, but we had a wonderful time cooking! The Chef/owner and staff were amazing; I will be sending my parents here when they visit for their anniversary later this year!

What a boutique space and experience for our family! The staff was friendly, welcoming, and well organized. Our family enjoyed meeting other travelers and sharing a meal together. Highly recommend! The sangria, appetizers, and paella were delicious.
Joshua_S, Dec 2025
It was a very cool experience with a lot of interesting information. You learn a nice skill and get to eat and drink with cool people 😎
Nuzhat_S, Dec 2025
Be prepared that this paella is an al dente one. I was with a family of 6 adults and two kids. It was fun but I think it took Tony longer to get started since there was a lot of conversation. My shrimps and mussels were not cooked, unless Madrid paella believe that the shrimp and mussels should be undercooked. There was also a sangria class. Wish he had mentioned the contribution of the Arabs having introduced rice to Spain instead of saying that it originated in the 14th century
Alexa_P, Dec 2025
The cooking class was lively, informative, and fun. It was a great way to spend our last night in Madrid with fellow travelers learning the history of paella and the cooking techniques.

My mom and I took this wonderful class and had a great time. They were able to accommodate our vegetarian dietary restrictions, which we were very appreciative of. We made a sangria and paella and got some background about the dishes and relevance to Spain. We also had tortilla and pan con tomate which were delicious. Our instructors were Tony and Yireles and they were amazing. Very friendly and enjoyed conversations with them throughout the class. The facility was well decorated with a great eye for design and detail. Take this class, you won’t regret it!
Response from Host, Nov 2025
¡Muchísimas gracias por tu hermosa reseña! 🥰
Nos alegra enormemente saber que tú y tu madre disfrutaron tanto de la clase y que pudimos adaptarnos a vuestras necesidades vegetarianas para que la experiencia fuera perfecta. ✨
Qué bueno que os gustaron la paella, la sangría y todos los platos que probasteis, así como aprender un poco más sobre su historia y tradición en España. Tony y Yire estarán encantados de recibir vuestros comentarios — ¡fue un placer compartir ese rato tan agradable con vosotras! 🙌
Nos hace muy felices también que el espacio y sus detalles os hayan enamorado.
¡Gracias de corazón por recomendar la experiencia! Esperamos volver a veros muy pronto para seguir cocinando y disfrutando juntas. 🥘🍹😊

Nicely paced cooking class with good information provided. The paella and sangria were good and the company was great.
Luis_S, Oct 2025
Fantastic experience, would absolutely recommend to anyone, and it is a fantastic time and you learn about the history
Lynn_J, Oct 2025
The paella and sangria experience was one of the highlights of our trip. The chef instructors were fantastic and made the cooking experience a lot of fun. Be warned: they offer (free of charge) red and white sangria and shots at the end of the meal so you can get pretty toasted! We were with a fun group and had an absolute blast!
Response from Host, Nov 2025
