On one of the traditional tasca streets in Old Madrid, this tavern has a distinct personality. It is dedicated to the art of serving Spain's finest sherry -- and that's it. Don't come in here asking for an extra dry martini. My favorite remains Manzanilla, a delicate fino with just a little chill on it. To go with all that sherry, the genially informal waiters serve tapas of garlicky marinated olives, jamón serrano (mountain ham), mojama (cured tuna), or blue-cheese canapés. Ancient barrels form the decor, along with antique posters long turned tobacco-gold from cigarette smoke. Open daily from 7pm to 1:30am.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
