This place is so typical from the Albaizyn. It offers the best food seafood for the right price. Here you can also have free fish tapas if you sit at the bar. And if you prefer to eat you can have lunch or dinner at the little patio they have inside the restaurant wich is decorate in the best andalucian granadian style. The owner is very carismatic and the service is usually fast. I recommend to try EL BARCO its a mix of olive oil fried seafood that cost 12 euros for two, you have the smaller option for 8 euros and the bigger option as well. If you are into seafood this is your place.

This is, in my opinion, the restaurant with the best stunning views to the Alahmbra. Its a very old mansion that was converted into a restaurant by the same family that owns the house. I know the owner and let me tell you, the food here is extraordinary. No friendly budget but to give you n idea my best dish is called Rabo de Toro, Oxtail stew. And it cost 18 euros. For a lamb leg you can pay around 16 euros and for two people. Amazing views, awesome food. Very relaxing place.
