Wonderful! So fun and the dancers had such passion! You could tell they love their dancing and put their heart and souls into it - it made me want to go and take a Flamenco lesson! There were passionate, and inspiring to watch! Such an amazing art! And, loved the sangria!

Intimate,cozy space with every seat a good seat with a good view. The "porciones" were underwhelming but the performance was excellent and felt really authentic. We took an Uber and the driver said it was in a suburb. It was well worth the short trip and only €18 per person for the show less than half the price of many others.
Excellent value for the money. We thoroughly enjoyed the show and can recommend it without reservation

An unforgettable night in Madrid—this was, without a doubt, the finest Flamenco performance I’ve ever witnessed. The dancers radiated pure passion and intensity, every movement charged with emotion and precision. The energy on stage was absolutely electric, drawing you in from the very first beat and holding you captive until the final note.
It wasn’t just a performance—it was an experience that stirred the soul. A true celebration of artistry, rhythm, and tradition. If you’re in Madrid, this is something you simply cannot miss.

I saw different flamenco shows, but it was the worst show ever. It was not professional at all. Dancers drank alcohol and made long pause between pieces of performance. It left very disgusting feeling.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Dear Olga. I am so sorry your experience didn’t meet your expectations. I can assure you that ALL our artists are professionals. I fear my glass of wine I had in the interval after I had finished my part of the show offended you. You have every right to feel disgusted by alcohol and we don’t force anyone to drink it. I just find a cool Spanish crisp white wine rather refreshing and relaxing after a performance. Melody

It was a wonderful experience. The performers were incredibly focused and amazing. I enjoyed every moment.
Sara_V, Mar 2026
Beautiful experience, flamenco is something that everybody should attend, see and feel. For me, one of the most beautiful ways to express, and these performers were beautiful.

Great show in an intimate venue off the beaten bath! Entrance is on Calle del pico de La maliciosa as another commenter said - you can’t miss it, there’s a super big red mural with flamenco dancers on it.

The website states this experience is approximately 2 hours long but the show was only for 1 hour. Falsely advertised on website.
Response from Host, Dec 2025
I am very sorry for the inconvenience. I will change the information on the website. The actual show does last for an hour but as we have a short break in the middle and clients are not asked to leave immediately after the show (we leave plenty of time between shows), the experience can take up to 1.5 hours.

Beautiful show. Service was great. The whole cast were passionate about their craft. Both dancers were amazing.
Lauren_B, Aug 2025
It is lovely! Drinks were delicious and the show was incredible. Would recommend this experience to anyone!! Building was a little hard to find, but we got there in the end.
Paula_W, Aug 2025
Shocking the venue is downstairs in a dingy room nothing Spanish about it , ordered drinks and they were mined up with the next table. The show was even worse we left after 30 minutes.
Alisha_O, Aug 2025
We felt it was a great show, especially for the price. They dancers and musicians were talented and passionate. It seemed very authentic. The venue left a little to be desired. Uncomfortable chairs and drinks and food were WAY overpriced. A bottle of water was €5. But the show was great!
Deborah_H, Jul 2025
We felt this experience lacked passion and emotion. It was an intimate venue, but hard to find and felt quite run down.
Response from Host, Jul 2025
I am very sorry your visit did not live up to your expectations.
Aissetou_S, Jul 2025
Incredible experience with priceless artistic figures, a must try in Spanish culture discovery to feel all the delicious emotions from suspense to joy, thank you for the moment shared with love
Nickisha_J, Jul 2025
I was truly looking forward to this event, but unfortunately, our experience was overshadowed by poor service and a lack of consideration. Despite booking well in advance, my party was placed at the very back of the venue, where it was unbearably warm and our view of the show was extremely limited. It felt like we were forgotten entirely.
To make matters worse, the manager was unhelpful when we raised concerns, showing little interest in resolving the issue or offering any meaningful support. It’s a shame, because the event itself had potential—but the mismanagement completely ruined it for us.
I don’t usually leave negative reviews, but this experience left me frustrated and disappointed.
Response from Host, Jul 2025
Thank you for sharing your experience. I would like to add a few details that you left out. On arrival you informed us that your party of six had booked three separate tickets for two people but had not informed us that you were in fact a group. We managed to reorganise a space so you could all sit together but to your dismay, it was not in the front row as: 1) many people booked before you and 2) the front tables are reserved for those who purchase the PREMIUM ticket, which you did not. I feel that not being able to occupy the best seat in the house may have tainted your experience a little.

What an amazing show! So authentic and full of emotion, half the price of other shows and so much better! Great experience

Amazing! Totally worth it! The performers were simply amazing… the food and drinks were on the expensive side.
Ashraf_A, Feb 2025
Great local spot to watch original dancers and singers who are passionate about the performance. Liked it
Wolfgang_E, Oct 2024
We had a pleasant time, with very friendly staff.. You can see how a person dances with all his heart, a true work of art.
Debbie_N, May 2024
This was an amazing experience. Very intimate and tucked into a neighborhood full of local life in Madrid. The performers - dancers, singer, and guitarist were great. The wait staff was friendly as I attempted to speak broken Spanish. Melody was also an awesome host. I definitely recommend this experience!
Francesca_D, Apr 2024
This was the most beautifully done show ever!!! The performers were incredible and they bring such stories to life through the dances and music!!! Absolutely incredible and a must see while you’re in Spain!!! Such a fun thing to do with my best friend on our last night!!!

Hmmmm. This show wasn't for me. Usually love flamenco, have seen around a dozen other performances over central/southern Spain and always try to attend venues slightly off the tourist map for more authenticity/less "rehearsed" feeling/support smaller venues and less well-known artists. Sadly, didn't feel the "duende" I usually get from flamenco and other Spanish art forms.
Really easy to find from the Portazgo metro stop (line 1) and waitress was incredibly polite and accommodating. Although I agree with other trip advisor reviews that the seating was uncomfortable and food didn't look the best (didn't try it personally, so maybe unfair to comment), for me the most important thing was that the performance just wasn't up to scratch and I don't believe it should really have been at this price point. Have seen other amateur performances outside of immediate centre of Madrid that have blown me away with much nicer food, ambience, pricing and exceptional artists.
I found that the "guest" dancer did elevate the show, so maybe experience is dependant on performers on the night. Night I attended there were two female dancers (one guest), one male singer and one guitarist, so if you like the dynamism and variety of having a mixed-gender dialogue or vocal/instrumental variety then luck was out that night.

I am very sorry we didn't meet up with your expectations.

It was a wonderful experience with the people on the stage. It was very friendly event and I would like to see it again. Thanks!

Please come again!!!
Anna_B, May 2023
The Flamenco show was great, our family really enjoyed it. However, the actual venue is not in the city center and you have to get there by an Uber or a taxi. It was hard to find the place. Otherwise the experience was great and we would recommend to a friend.
Response from Host, Jul 2023
Hello Anna. Thank you for your review. Yes, we are outside of the city centre but just 15 minutes on the metro or a short taxi ride.
Inas_A, Feb 2023
It was a memorable night by excellent flamenco dancers. The guitar player, the singer and the 3 dancers strongly moved us with their great performance.
Thank you

Highly recommend! Perfect cultural experience for a visit to Madrid!
Response from Host, Jul 2023
Thank you. I am so glad you felt the force of flamenco as much as we do!!
Jillian_B, Jun 2021
Amazing show! This is a must-do when visiting Spain. The performance was beautiful, and we got a pitcher of sangria for the two of us included. Excellent value for what we paid.
Response from Host, Nov 2021
Thank you! I am so glad you enjoyed your evening.
Claudia_T, Apr 2026
It was an interesting show with two dancers who took turns dancing flamenco, one with a fan. The dancers were accompanied by a guitarist and a singer.
