La mejor tortilla no, lo siguiente, lo conocí por Telemadrid y desde entonces es un sitio para visitar cuando se puede por que no somos del barrio y nos pilla un poco lejos pero da igual se puede comer, tapear etc. el trato es muy bueno y buena gente, en fin para repetir siempre que se pueda.

Hemos ido por su famosa tortilla, creo que es la mejor que he probado en Madrid. Todo lo que tenían en la barra tenía muy buen aspecto y fresco. El café correcto y el precio muy bien. Además son majos.
