We got there because there was a guy in Mercado San Miguel who said that if we book with him we pay 22 euros instead of 32 for the show and a drink. It's not cheap but comparing to the other places i found it was cheaper. The place is small, very underground. The second sangria was 5 euro :)).... More

We paid 25 euros for a show and a drink. The price isn't that high but they are amateurs. 1) As soon as we sat (30 min before show). They asked us about our drinks, so we ordered two sangrias, they served very fast. That was good. But the waiteress never came again to see if we wanted some more... More

The place was full but happily they agreed to squeeze us in for what turned out to be the best 32 euros (including drink) of the trip. Two superb guitarists, two great gypsy singers, two unbelievable young dancers (one male, one female). An hour and a half of fabulous entertainment. More

I LOVED the fflamenco show we experienced at Cardamomo. We went to a 10:30pm show on a Sunday night. Only 4 tables were occupied, perhaps because there was a Madrid Real futbol game going on at the same time? The place isn;t fancy , but I loved the intimate scale and raw performance. We sat in one of the 3... More

It was our last night in Madrid and we wanted to see a Flamenco show. My hotel booked Cardamomo for us, but was very upfront that they only recommend one Flamenco show and this was NOT it. We arrived 15 minutes before the show, so we got close seats, but still had to do a bit of stretching and moving... More

Brilliant flamenco shaw, awesome and electrifying. I highly recommend this small tablao where one can see real flamenco in a comfortable setting. The dinner was good, which was a nice surprise, given that food is not what the tablaos are well known for. A must for any flamenco lover! More

All I can say is that if you have any desire to be blown away by some of the best flamenco guitar and dancing, Cardamomo is a must when visiting Madrid. This gypsy bank is electric and you will sit in awe and be absolutely spellbound at the musical and dance talent. Enjoy! More

They let us in under false pretenses and said there was a show about to start. Probably just to get us to buy a drink. The price of two bottles of watery beer was 18 euros, they kept on moving us to different tables and said there was a show about to start but we saw no flamenco at all.... More
