La Finca de Susana

Set in a quiet street close to Alcalá and a short walk from the Puerta del Sol, this airy open-plan restaurant with its bright modern decor offers a winning combination of inventive quality cuisine and highly affordable prices. Vegetables in tempura batter and an exceptional choice of rice and fish dishes head the individual specialities and the desserts are simple and delicious. Service is smart and efficient and best value is its set weekday lunch. This is one place you should eat earlier than the usual Spanish hours as there's no booking and queues soon gather, especially at lunchtimes, due to its understandable popularity. (Try 1:30pm instead of an hour later.)
