We ordered: -porra with quail egg: this was very similar to gazpacho (which I love) so I automatically loved this -anchovies with guacamole: I'm not a big fan of anchovies but my boyfriend is and he really liked this dish -octopus: delicious! -squid with crispy black rice: this was my favorite dish, the squid was so flavorful and went perfectly with the crispy rice -sea bream: also delicious, loved the eggplant and goat cheese sauce that came with it -boar stew: I'm not a big fan of stews, but I can tell that it was cooked well You honestly can't go wrong with any of the tapas. Highly recommend!

There is plenty of picnic bench style tables outside with shaded options available (dogs however can only be in one half so make sure you check before getting comfy) so it's ideal for groups and families. It even has a small play area for the wee ones to keep them occupied. The menu has plenty choice, everything from salads (€10ish) to traditional ham and cheese plates (€8ish each) and Spanish tortilla (again about €8) which are great for sharing, to individual meat and fish main plates which are pricier. Service is a bit slow; took easily 10 mins to get menus after sitting down and another 10 to take drinks orders. Not many servers have good English unfortunately so we found ordering a bit tricky; 8 cerveza por favor is our limit ha! The food itself came out quickly however, as and when it was ready and portions were a good size so we left with full and happy bellies!

Para pedir, nos atendió Dave Ryx, con otra sonrisa y contento de guiarnos a travez de un menú desconocido. Comenzamos con las croquetas y las berenjenas fritas - versión tapa, ambos deliciosas.

We arrived at exactly 8 pm for our 8 pm reservation, but the glass door was still locked and the…read morestaff inside just glared at us until we walked away. Not a great start. Once inside, the atmosphere was very pleasant, having been seated in a large, open atrium with ornate carved stone walls and doorways. We asked for a large bottle of sparkling water but were told that they only had small bottles at €2.50 a pop. Small bottles mean more profit for the business but are inconvenient and more expensive for customers. We started with a bottle of the Speak of Silence /Extremadura, a dark red wine made with Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Tempranillo grapes. At €22 it was a decent value (average price = €19) with a 4.1 / 5.0 rating on Vivino and rated one of the top 2% of wines in the world. It was good, but I am not sure about the top 2% claim. We ordered and shared several dishes, so I will elaborate here: - Mixed Salad with Tomato Vinaigrette (€6.10): Nothing special, just an overpriced salad - Cordoban Salmorejo (€5.10): A local cold tomato soup emulsified with olive oil, Iberian ham, and egg, it probably would have been better warm or hot. It was tasty, but different, not something I would order again. - Cordoban Flamenquin (€14.75): Another local dish, pork loin stuffed with ham, breaded, and fried. It was good but a bit dry so I dribbled some sauce from the oxtail on top. It would have been better with an accompanying sauce, but then it would not be Cordoban. - Cordoba-style Oxtail (€13.95): Two small knuckles with barely any meat and eight small french fries scattered on top. The sauce was good and what meat that was there tender, but €13.95 for four or five mouthfuls? Definitely NOT a TravelValue. - Solomillo Boletus (€19.25): Iberian pork tenderloin topped with a mushroom sauce, it was delicious, but €20 seems a tad high for a few pieces of pork and a smattering of fries. Our server, Jose Rey, was professional and attentive and we were very pleased with his service. Another thing I did not like was the coercion to submit a 5-star review at the end of the meal. We were handed a card stating Ïf you don't like something, say it here¨but ¨Ïf you liked something, say it outside¨. I tell it like it is, so I do not appreciate being coached on what to submit in my reviews. The meal was good and the experience pleasant, but the few shortfalls we experienced kept me from giving them one of my top ratings.

But, two of the fastest, hardest working and efficient bar keeps took great care of me. I had a Tinto de Verona, a burger and patatas bravas. Both were superb.

While there us a wait, always, I'm glad I took a chance. It was great. And any place that has Tinto de Verona on tap is doing God's work in my opinion.

Albacara was one of the highlights of our visit to Ronda. The restaurant is beautifully situated at…read moreHotel Montelirio, with an extraordinary view overlooking the Tajo gorge and the iconic Puente Nuevo. The setting alone is spectacular, particularly if you are fortunate enough to dine on the terrace, but what makes Albacara truly special is that the food and service live up to the location. From the moment we arrived, the service was excellent. The staff was professional, attentive, friendly, and welcoming without ever being intrusive. There was a genuine sense of hospitality throughout the meal, and the attention to detail made the entire experience feel special. The food was equally good. The dishes were beautifully presented, well prepared, and full of flavor. The menu offers a nice balance of traditional Andalusian influences and more contemporary Mediterranean cuisine, with quality ingredients and careful preparation. Everything we had was enjoyable, and the meal felt like a true dining experience rather than simply having lunch or dinner at a restaurant. warning ‼: Do not try the bread. You won't be able to stop eating it. And then there is the view. It is difficult to overstate how beautiful the setting is. Sitting above the Tajo gorge with the Puente Nuevo directly in view, surrounded by the dramatic Andalusian landscape, creates an atmosphere that is almost impossible to duplicate. We were told that if you can time your visit around sunset, the experience becomes even more spectacular as the light changes over the mountains and the bridge. What impressed us most was that Albacara is not simply a restaurant that relies on its incredible location. The food, service, atmosphere, and setting all come together to create a memorable experience. For anyone visiting Ronda, I would highly recommend making a reservation at Albacara and requesting a table with a view, especially on the terrace. It is the kind of place where you want to slow down, enjoy the meal, have a glass of wine, and simply take in the scenery. Albacara is definitely worth visiting.

Unfortunately, this meal didn't live up to its rave reviews. Their famous croquettes were very good - certainly the best croquettes we've had, with super thin fried shells - and the salmorejo was also very flavorful with jamon bits. However, the main we ordered (baked cod with toasted garlic) was fried with not a hint of toasted garlic in sight; the cod itself was also far too salty. We admittedly were not very hungry when we arrived, so perhaps their other mains which they're more known for (eg, suckling pig) are tastier, but the main was definitely a disappointment.
