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

We found the location a bit of a challenge to find so bake in some buffer time. But once you’re there the room are comfortable, the staff great and the instruction well communicated. We download the recipes for paella and sangria and look forward to showing off our new skills with friends at home

Yick_L, May 2026
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.

Fun Paella Cooking Class!

Dawn_R, May 2026
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!

Fun night!

Katie_S, May 2026
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!

Great class!

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.

Great experience. ...

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.

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!

Highly recommend

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.

Paella is the best!!

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 😎

Fun class to attend.

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

The cooking class was...
