What a fabulous place to eat in Granada. Recommendations were very helpful and plenty of local ingredients in evidence. We will be returning to try out the fish options.

I'm going to give 4*, maybe a 5* but gut feel put me to 4*. Menu of the day 25 EUR, expensive for Spain but it was worth it. We sat on a very nice terrace, good service with proper table cloths. Plates cleared after every course. Minor things like getting a 33cl glass bottle of water, not 25cl pleased me. Minor detail also beautiful top class olives presented at beginning. All three courses of the menu were good but the pig's cheek absolutely outstanding. The flan (egg custard) was one of the best I have had in Spain. Concerning the 'a la carte' menu, it looked quite expensive. Restaurant seemed more popular with tourists (us) rather than locals. In summary, good place to eat in Granada.

This restaurant is one of the oldest establishments in Granada. It is located adjacent to a small pleasant plaza. The entrance brings you in to the small bar where you can order a drink and enjoy a tapa. The restaurant is just next door through a beautiful old wood door. It is a cozy medium sized room with tables covered with white tablecloths. The menu features some classic dishes of Granada such as the Sacromonte omelette and snails. The waiter was attentive and the ambiance was perfect for a cold January night meal. The wine list has a comprehensive overview of Spanish wine with majority at a very affordable price with an average of 25€ a bottle. The food is not elegant or gourmet but tasty and satisfying. Comfort food.

What a superb dinner of sardines, gazpacho followed by ox tail and steak, beautifully presented and served by the amazing Victor. Victor regaled us with stories of his 19 years at the restaurant and the list of famous people that have visited, we loved the stories. The setting was a beautiful old building with outdoor seating in the square, but it was still 37 degrees at 8pm, so we ate inside and soaked up the atmosphere. Highly recommend

The establishment offers an elevated dining experience, enriched by the staff's willingness to share historical insights and a decor featuring portraits of notable figures. The service is attentive and cordial. Our party ordered the Grilled Salmon, Chicken Soup, Filet, and Oxtail. Complimentary offerings included olives bread and an artichoke salad with limoncello after the meal. The Grilled Salmon was expertly prepared, though a touch more salt could have enhanced the flavor profile. The Filet was cooked to perfection, exhibiting a desirable char and was delicious. The Oxtail, prepared in the style of a pot roast with a red wine reduction, was also exceptional. While the soup was satisfactory, it did not quite match the caliber of the other dishes. For dessert, we sampled the Fried Milk, Almond Tart, and a Frozen Tart infused with whiskey and almonds, all of which were outstanding and featured delightful flavor combinations. We will definitely love to visit again.

We found this restaurant after a full day of touring Granada. A bit off the tourist path and filled with locals. Service is absolutely outstanding. We sat outside on the patio and the ambience was great. Not a cheap restaurant but the food is incredibly good. We ordered the house specialities and they didn’t disappoint. Highly recommend

Came back twice. First had the presa (pork) and it was melt in your mouth. Not a huge pork fan but this was done well by the chef. Second time I had the boquerones or fried anchovies and the ibérico jamón. Both amazing!! Worth a visit or two.
