A corner of the Middle East in Madrid, this superlatively friendly restaurant fills by 9:30 pm, thanks to its low prices and cozy atmosphere. With low tables, floor cushions, candles, wall hangings and the scent of incense, Al-Jaima is the perfect place for a romantic meal out, particularly for those on a budget. (You can lounge on the cushions at the tables in the front or sit in chairs at the more numerous tables in the back.) Order a giant spread of dishes to share such as humus, falafel, a tender tagine of chicken with honey and dates, and sticky pastry desserts dripping with honey and pistachio nuts. METRO: Chueca
