Mercado San Miguel
s/n Pl. de San MiguelFusion restaurant. Madrid has a lot of restaurants, but a lot of them are terrible. This one is very good.
L' artisan
15 C. de Ventura de la VegaFusion restaurant. Madrid has a lot of restaurants, but a lot of them are terrible. This one is very good.
It's not all about appearance. You would pass this place a hundred times without thinking of going in, but this is an absolutely great Chinese restaurant, and very cheap! The Sopa de cabeza de merluza is a must.

Really nice at the top end near Legazpi. A nice alternative to Retiro if you want to lounge around for the day. The Matadero is also worth a visit, depending what's on.
