What they say about us

“This was way above and beyond my expectations! Loved the venue and the open sangria bar with the last show! They have a great venue and it’s very exciting to watch the amazing flamenco dancers do their magic!!”

“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.”

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

Far from what we expected, the Tablao Cardamomo left us speechless, amazed and above all proud to be from here and to know that this culture is also ours. The rest of the people who packed the Tablao and the tables -many foreigners but also many Spaniards- had to enjoy it to the fullest.

I used to always imagine flamenco as this passionate dance that took place in darkened stages. During a recent trip to Spain I finally got the chance to visit a Tablao Flamenco. I was happy to see that it was everything I always imagined and even more.
