What to do and see in Madrid, Community of Madrid: The Best Dinner Theaters

July 24, 2021 Lashaunda Abraham

So many of Madrid’s buildings look like castles, you’ll think you’ve stumbled into a fairytale. Even City Hall is astounding, with its white pinnacles and neo-Gothic features. A self-guided architecture tour can begin by the great bear statue in the central Puerta del Sol. Wander by the fanciful Royal Palace before absorbing the natural beauty of Retiro Park, then visit one of the city’s many museums. You could happily cap off each day by nibbling on forkfuls of paella while sipping Spanish rioja.

Me and my family loved the show, it was amazing to see a part of spains culture expressed through dancing in such a powerful and strongly beautiful way! I think Cardamomo is the right choice for everyone who is interested in flamenco, spanish culture and dancing in general and who want’s to spend a great evening with loved ones.

Tablao Flamenco Las Tablas

LAS TABLAS is the ideal place to spend an evening experiencing the song, dance and guitar of Flamenco while enjoying exquisite Spanish cuisine. Every night, our audience’s imagination is captivated by the passion of the song, the intensity of the dance and the sound of the guitar being played to the beat of clapping hands. Every night is unforgettable. We’re a young, dynamic, artist-led Flamenco stage, centrally located at Plaza de España, number 9, in the very heart of Madrid. You’ll find us between the Royal Palace’s Sabatini Gardens and the Temple of Debod. Our repertoire includes varied, representative Flamenco at its best, which is always open to proposals from emerging and acclaimed artists alike. Our two daily shows, at 7 p.m. and at 9 p.m., feature performances by great artists and meticulous staging.

This was my first flamenco show and I was a bit skeptical about it. After 5 minutes of the show (booked on their website w/ 1 drink included) I absolutely loved it and so did my wife. Dancers, singer and guitarist are very passionate about their craft and performed exceptionally. This was one of my favorite experiences in Spain and it was worth every penny. Highly recommend it everyone. Videos on YouTube or recorded in person don't do it justice. Must see live.

CAUTION: This review is going to be super detailed because all smart travellers struggle when it comes to choosing the right things to ensure they get the best experience possible for the amount of money they're investing. Okay. It was established that we had to go to a flamenco show while in Madrid. Needless to say, I spent hours upon hours searching and reading about the different shows and venues on offer. Blogs, TripAdvisor, GetYourGuide, more blogs- you name it, I probably went through it. It really was hard to decide, but if you get down a few things in mind, the process could get a bit less challenging. First, a real flamenco show should have all 4 elements of a real flamenco show: Cante (or voice), Baile (or dance), Toque (or guitar), and Jaleo (or clapping and stomping). Second, you have to prioritise other things in the experience (i.e. do I just go in for show? a show and drinks? a show and dinner?) That will significantly determine how much you will pay especially in reputable places like Corral de la Moreria. Third, you have to determine how long will you be willing to sit and watch a show. Most will specify the duration of the show online. I was between two venues, but I eventually went with Corral de la Moreria because it felt just right. It was the most expensive of all the ones I looked up (we paid €250 for 3 adults and 2 kids) for show and drinks only, but it was well-worth it. The show had all 4 components and was very balanced out. The performers spoke art and excellence and the show just came together to be wondrous- a real high class experience. It lasted for an hour which was just right for us. Some other venues had shows that could last up to 1 hour and 45 minutes and I felt that was too much for the kids even if a good show is pulled out at the end. Our experience here was lovely. We had an unforgettable night and it should come as no surprise. After all, this is (1) the oldest tablao in Madrid, (2) the place where renowned international artists performed for years, and (3) the place where celebrities come to flamenco shows. I had very high expectations and the folks here delivered and simply didn't disappoint. I would like to take this review as an opportunity to salute the waiters too. One of them graciously greeted us from the moment we exited our taxi, started small talk with my little sister and kept going until we were seated at our table. When I ordered an extra drink for grandpa and requested the bill later, they said keep it on the house. I found this small gesture very generous and it definitely made our day. Highly recommended.

Spectacular! My wife and I were looking for a new flamenco experience and we got the most special one -wasn't our first time in Madrid-. This one touched us and the whole experience was truly appealing. Impressive artists, beside the guitar player and the singer, who were exceptional, the dancers took everyone in the room out of their minds. Top level. Our best experience in a flamenco show in Madrid. The place is lovely and unique and the food also very good!! Truly recommendable.
