Excellent food and excellent service! Mushroom app and then the Kobe beef for two was delicious. Bread and several delicious dipping sauces comes with the meal. Atmosphere very nice. Highly recommend and would return to eat here again.

Great place to eat in the area. Can't say nicer things. Madrid cuisine is hit or miss, one really needs to use Google reviews or Yelp to find that perfect dining spot. However, this one will not disappoint. Just was unaware that the bread being served French-style was an additional 9€ - decline because it wasn't even that good and they provide more than enough on the table. A pleasant surprise was the cutest arrangement of mini macaroons and cookies that accompanied the coffee - perfect idea!!!

Rubaiyat is not for tourists. Here, in the high-rent district, near P. Castilla, you're more likely to run into a PE investor or banker taking his or her family to dinner. But this Brazilian steakhouse is 'la leche' and I can't recommend the Picanhas cut more highly.

I will give Rubaiyat a very strong four-star rating. The decor, the food, the professional service, and the attention to detail was a very pleasant and a wonderful surprise. I loved the decor with wrought iron, rustic wood, and distressed leather. The outdoor eating area is a garden oasis with a spraying system to keep you cool and comfortable on a hot summer day. This company has restaurants in Brazil and Peru also. I have never had food this well-prepared or as delicious in either country. I will look them up when traveling. The wine list was exemplary. I was given a tour of the extensive wine cellars (plural!) This restaurant has an amazing beef selection but on a hot summer day, seafood sounded more appealing. The lobster salad with a mango vinaigrette, hake, focaccia, and the dulce de leche crepes were all fabulous. They have rooms for private parties also on the lower level. Valet parking is available. Enjoy! www.rubaiyat.es

I chanced upon this place on the net, and read some of their reviews. Everybody says good things about them so I thought I'd give it a shot. And I wasn't disappointed.
It's an elegant restaurant with classic decoration, wooden tables, big windows, and tables placed with enough distance. It was almost filled on the Sunday evening we were there.
We tried the special tasting menu that was on offer that certain night. It includes a neat selection of their popular items. I really can't say which one I liked the most: the seafood, fish, meat, or the desserts. Everything tasted perfectly.
Maybe the service could be a bit faster, and the waiters a bit more professional, but I think I wouldn't mind going back again on a special occasion.
I didn't take any photos: I preferred to enjoy my meal instead.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Gabrielle W.Hamilton, NY1743612Aug 13, 2016
An incredibly beautiful terrace, one of the best in Madrid. Delicious beef, but I think their octopus is really the star, also their mushroom carpaccio starter is to die for. The best place for a fancy birthday. Wonderful service, an amazing wine list.

Went to this Resturant with my 2 sister and brother for dinner. Despite of booking a table by 9pm early seating for Spain, we still managed to leave by 11.30. Yes we were having a good time, but the slowness of the stuff also play a part on this. The stuff seems clumsy with at least 3 broken glasses broken, a couple of knives/forks in the floor and even a full bottle of wine !!!. The situation was tried to be improved with an overly friendly head of the room.
Food wise.. I was expecting the whoa factor for my meat... And honestly it was good, but not spectacular as I was expecting and as I remember when I used to live in Madrid
So net, yes it is a good place, and probably would go back... But not in the very short term...Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Nik B.Friedrichsdorf, Germany56563218Mar 10, 2014
We have been there with a group of 15 persons for dinner. The overall impression is very well, very friendly welcome service, nicely (classic) dressed waiters and staff and an modern but still warm interior.
However, the dinner was "just ok" and therefore somwhat disappointing, taking into account the prices on the menu.
For starters, we had some salad an some mixed plates. They were well in the "just ok" regime. The bread on the other hand side was offered from a huge basket and bread provided on the table was placed in neat wooden stands. The entire bread was really fresh and good.
As a main course, went for the Baby Beef. The meat alone was very, very good. Unfortunately it wasn't cooked well. I ordered medium rare and it was actually barely rare, tending towards blue. Shure, I could have asked to have it on the grill once more, but for a steak house in this league, this shouldn't happen, especially as it wasn't a single issue in our group.
After the dinner we were offered a round of caipirinhas on the house, which we gladly accepted. Well, the intention was good, but it was not drinkable: Too much Cachaca is wrong, too.
Overall this brings me to a three star rating - or "just ok"Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Juan L.Madrid, Spain84May 12, 2012First to Review
