Opened in 2014, Macarena is known as the "largest Spanish restaurant in Asia" and the largest Spanish restaurant in Shanghai. Named after the album "Macarena" by the Spanish group "Los Del Rio", which has sold more than 10 million copies worldwide, it is the world's most successful Latin music (Latin) record, which is almost unknown in Spain, which shows Macarena's ambition to create an authentic Spanish restaurant in Shanghai.

The decoration design of the entire restaurant was planned by Antonio Ruiz Barbarin, a professor at the Institute of Architecture and Technology in Madrid, Spain, with the guidance and participation of Maria, the soft decoration designer of the Spanish royal family, to skillfully integrate Spanish culture into the decoration of the restaurant. The popular domestic TV series "The First Half of My Life", "Weekend Parents", "Ode to Joy 2" and other crews have also been filmed here, so the restaurant's popularity has been greatly enhanced, and it is a representative of high-end Spanish restaurants in Shanghai.

The restaurant is run by a team of authentic Spanish origins, including not only Spanish Executive Chef Caro Gonzalez, but also Monerris Javaloyes, who has many years of experience in food and beverage management in Spain, as General Manager, and the Lobby Manager and Operations Director are hired from Spain. Whether it's paella, tapas, 48-month-old acorn-fed ham, authentic Spanish cuisine can be eaten at Macarena.

Ham, sausage, and egg hash browns are collectively known as the three major tapas in Spain. The 48-month-old Iberian acorn ham is Macarena's signature that she never gets tired of eating. The thinly sliced ham has a bright color, a plump but not greasy taste, and the aroma is fragrant at the moment of serving, and the meat is extremely tender and full. The other two sausages and egg and hash browns are also popular with diners, with a high order rate. Also recommended is the Alicante risotto, served with Argentine wild prawns, clams, mussels and squid fillets. The abundant seafood ingredients make the rice on the bottom rich in flavor, and there is no gorgeous plating, only a feeling of satiety mixed with cheese lubrication. The Spanish handmade cheese platter, the snow-white and small cheese is handmade, accompanied by the fragrance of ham and paella, the taste is smooth and crisp. The grilled lamb chops are made from fresh lamb chops that were purchased on the same day, and after some grilling, the inside is still soft and tender, but the shell is full of charred aroma. Served with the classic fluffy potato wedges and eggplant, and the essential oil-soaked dried tomatoes in Western cuisine, the whole lamb chop is delicious.

A paella with Spanish cuttlefish juice that looks like a dark dish is not simple, and the salty cuttlefish ink soaks the grains of rice, and the seafood looks particularly attractive in the dark rice. This bowl of black rice is also known as seafood black rice by the Spaniards. It is said that when the Spanish fleet was conquering Central and South America, the ship's cooks found that they had run out of saffron when they were cooking paella, and they could not buy it for a while. The hungry soldiers swept away the appearance and unexpectedly found that it tasted good. The cook who had accidentally hit the cook was also commended. Since then, squid ink paella has not only been included in traditional Spanish recipes, but has also become more popular with chefs around the world.

In addition to the food, Spanish restaurants are indispensable for cheap and good wines. The restaurant has a well-built wine cellar with a selection of Spanish wines of 100% pure origin, covering almost all of Spain's grape regions and varieties. Don't miss out on the excitement after you've eaten and drunk. There is a flamenco stage on the first floor of the restaurant, and there are flamenco performances every Wednesday night from 19:00 to 21:00. When it comes to flamenco, it is not difficult to conjure up images of Spanish girls dancing with matadors, flamenco is a comprehensive art in Spain, integrating dance, singing and instrumental music, and is known as the "quintessence" of Spain.

Located in a private villa, Macarena is decorated with marble imported from Spain, and all the decorative paintings are sourced from the Prado Museum in Spain. The open-air seating is entirely in the Gaudí style. On the second floor of the restaurant, there are ten private rooms with the theme of Spanish culture and art, named after the famous Spanish architect Gaudí, painters Picasso, Velázquez, Soloa and other names, as well as well-known Chinese people such as bullfighting and olive oil ham. In addition to daily meals, the restaurant also handles large-scale dining group events such as banquets and business receptions, and reservations are required in advance. It should be noted that the restaurant is located in a remote location, located in Qingpu District, which is far away from the city, so it will be more convenient to get there by car.
