OK, let's lose the preconcieved notions that dining at Real Madrid is like being transported instantly to Mallorca. It's pretty dumpy on the outside, on what Staten Islanders could consider the "rape-iest stretch of Forest Avenue." Between Pep Boys and Midas lies a little restaurant where you can totally get hammered on sangria and eat an assful of garlic shrimp. Their paella is authentic.
Here's what we usually do. We'll get an arroz con pollo and an order of camarones con ajillo. Then we'll dump them together to create this magical, soupy mess of delicious garlicky goodness. Mind you, all the while, we're consuming sangria faster than Whitney blasted crack rocks. (too soon?)
It's good for dates. Don't bring your kids, it really ruins the drunken bathroom foreplay.

| Like: It's good spanish food. Like, really good. |
| Dislike: Forest Avenue is kind of a war zone. |

We went to Real Madrid for New Years Eve dinner and we were extremely disappointed. The food was cold and tasteless.The seafood pailla smelled fishy. The margaritas came in a tiny glass and the white sangria tasted like a white wine spritzer. The decor is old and dated.

Real Madrid has great lobster (steamed or broiled) at a great price. Probably the best deal for lobster in the entire New York metropolitan area. The sides that come with entrees are also great. The problem is that the one time I got steak instead of lobster, I was VERY disappointed. Stick with the lobster here and you will be very happy.
