Sin duda sigue teniendo uno de los mejores pescados de Madrid. Tranquilo y bien atendido.

Los chopitos estaban muy ricos, el rape correcto y el rodaballo realmente excelente. El local necesitaría alguna reforma porque se nota que tiene solera, aunque resulta agradable y cuenta con unas vistas muy bonitas. Personalmente, no me gusta que se permita la entrada de perros en un restaurante. La atención fue amable, aunque el personal estaba saturado y la cuenta tardó más de 20 minutos en llegar.

A wonderful restaurant overlooking the lakes. Popular with the locals, so we decided to visit it as well. Delicious fish and seafood, I recommend it. Very friendly and diligent staff. Prices are above average.

Tuvimos una experiencia maravillosa en el Rincón de Alba, ubicado en Manzanares el Real, junto a la rotonda del Gato. Pedimos lenguado, corvina y una ensalada mixta, ¡y todo estuvo espectacular! Los pescados estaban frescos y perfectamente cocinados, y la ensalada fue el acompañamiento ideal. Además, Mario fue un anfitrión increíble y al final de la comida nos invitó a un delicioso té, lo cual fue un detalle encantador. Sin duda, un lugar para repetir por su calidad, atención y ambiente acogedor. Muy recomendado para quien busque buena comida y un servicio excelente. ¡Volveremos! Espero que sea útil y adecuado para tu experiencia. ¡Avísame si necesitas algún ajuste!

Espectacular comida, vistas del embalse y trato por parte de todo el personal. Es nuestro sitio de referencia en la Sierra cuando queremos celebrar una ocasión especial con una excelente comida. El pescado y marisco es muy muy fresco y le tienen un punto muy bueno. Lo traen todo de Huelva de un familiar que lo pesca allí. Muy recomendable!!!

Great lunchtime service. English spoken. Not pretentious - food - basic but very nice. Nice views over the embalsa. Recommended.
