What they say about us

“El mejor flamenco en Madrid. Yo los he visto todos por cuestiones profesionales y es la primera vez que uno me gusta y me impacta. por primera vez he visto un espectáculo de flamenco para todo el mundo, no dirigido a turistas. Paloma Fantova soberbia y Kelian Jiménez lleno de fuerza. Un gran espectáculo para pasar una velada.”

Live music is thriving in Madrid, from classical and opera to blues, rock and jazz, but the speciality is flamenco. It may seem odd that the music of the south is so important up here, but there are two reasons for that: first, a lot of Andalusians have made their homes here, and second, any flamenco artist worth his salt wants to play the big tablaos — dinner shows — in el capital. Cardamomo is the real deal, catering to a crowd that knows its bulerias from its soleas. There are three sessions a night, at 6pm, 8pm and 10pm, and, obviously, you’ll go to the latter.

Cardamomo is definitely one of the best flamenco shows in Madrid.

“Cardamomo is dark, tight, and as the clouds formed inside, and the dancing and wailing began, the rooms became filled with energy. Each of the dancers interpreted the music, as they saw fit, and you felt that you were watching the creation of a dance, every time a new dancer started…dancers entered trances, clicked, and clocked, rapped with the guitarists, all the while the singers added their inspiration to the cause. The dancers, while on this small stage, commanded the audience, and it was a treat to watch them walk off the stage with all humbleness, after being musical assassins on stage.”
— Dave R, TripAdvisor

“Considerado por los ‘connoisseurs’ como el corazón y alma del flamenco en Madrid, El Cardamomo es un tablao intimo y acogedor donde vivir la pasión del flamenco autentico. Seleccionado por el New York Times en su artículo “36 horas en Madrid” y recomendado por el Guardian como el tablao donde los grandes del flamenco se sienten en casa.”
