Personal comments
There are a lot in Madrid! Half a year is not enough! But for example if you want to try tapas then its Tigre, near the metro station Gran Via. Another nice choice is 100 montaditos, there are a few in town. To go out I suggest the barrio of Chueca, because its very colorful, suprising and great music all around.
