Good spot to grab a drink and some tapas in Granada.
My friend and I came by Saturday evening around 9:30 and it was popping. Most of the outdoor tables were taken, but we snagged the last two spots at the inside bar.
We had a cana (small beer) for 2.50€ and a manzanilla (apple wine I think?) for 2.80€. I've never had apple wine before, but I don't think I'm a fan. It wasn't as sweet as I was expecting and tasted on the drier side.
As part of our drinks, we got some complimentary fried fish which was delicious. We also ordered a half portion of the berenjenas fritas (8€), which is fried eggplant. It's served with honey on the side that you can drizzle over the eggplant.
I don't like eggplant at all because of the taste and texture, but I couldn't taste that this was eggplant at all, so I really enjoyed it. It was surprisingly good with the honey, and I ended up eating more than I expected to.
Casa Julio seems to be known for the berenjenas (pretty much every group ordered it at the bar), so would definitely recommend trying it here! read more
