Jaleo looks, sounds and acts like a budget, city-center spot for office parties, and provides appropriately down-market food. Either celebrity chef Andrés intentionally set a low bar for food and service, or he's just not bothered to visit his own restaurant lately, but it was definitely not a place to which I'd return.
Being "high-end" tapas, our dinner included:
- Jamón Ibérico de bellota ‘Fermin’cured ham from the legendary, acorn-fed, black-footed Ibérico pigs of Spain.
- Arroz de pato ‘Jean-Louis Palladin’ rice with duck confit, duck breast and foie gras cream.
- Tortilla de patatas al momento, spanish omelet with potatoes and onions cooked to order.
