We enjoyed the broad bean and ham cassoulet with a side of potatoes as well as an olive pate. It all sounds simple but was executed perfectly, and the chef is warm and lovely. The meal will be slow but that gives you plenty of time to savor it!

When visiting the Alhambra, there are plenty of little shops to get snacks and sandwiches on the go. But if you want a real meal there are just a view options. This one was great for us because the patio is shaded by these beautiful trees yet still has great views of the Generalife. I tried the Spanish Omelette because I hadn't had one yet, and I loved it, everyone else at our table loved it too. My brother tried their local beer and really enjoyed that, while the rest of us had sangria which was lovely. Their olives that we shared had a great flavor as well. The waiters were attentive and accommodating. You pay at the barista stand when you're ready to go. Of course you can always eat at the restaurant inside as well, you have a better selection of food, but you don't get the beautiful views.

Nonetheless, this excellent establishment deserves recognition, and hopefully will catch the stray eye of an American in Granada. Located in the historic Parador hotel, this restaurant provides excellent food, an unbelievable price, and a historic ambiance that puts your meal at the crossroads of Nasrid Moor and Castilian cultures on the steps of the final fortress against the Reconquista. I want to highlight the Nasrid tasting menu (39€, $40 Jan 2025), as well as its guided printed menu (see photos). After a succulent soup amuse-bouche, this guided tour de force began with a rich, saffron and spice soup filled with meat and grains. Accompanying this was a poultry briwat filled with minced meat, dates and raisins, all surrounded by a flaky pastry. Following was a spicy crusted sea bass atop vegetables that paired perfectly and was incredible. A somewhat unremarkable stewed veal proceeded but this was cut with sour apple and aubergine for an excellent combination. Finally a boiled fruit, pastry, and myrtle-berry ice cream (made from berries harvested from the trees surrounding the Alhambra) completed the meal with a light decadence. It is criminal this restaurant wasn't filled to the brim the Sunday night we attended. This tasting menu is easily worth at least $125 - if not $200 - rather than a paltry $40 we paid. While the exchange rate and season were in our favor, this is unquestionably one of the greatest value finds in my Yelp career. A special word must also be made for the Childrens menu - where for 16€ a child can have a generous four course meal of their own - complete with two scoop ice cream sundae. Language barrier notwithstanding, the service was polite and attentive. I encourage all visitors to stroll around the historic Parador hotel as well to find amazing views of the Generalife, a well preserved cloister, and the original burial site of Isabella of Castile and Ferdinand of Aragon, founders of Spain. History beneath your feet. Restaurante del Parador, and in particular its established Nasrid tasting menu, is a tour de force and a must-visit for anyone looking for an unforgettable taste of the last morsels of Moorish Spain at an incredible price.

You would think paying extra to be seated in a nicer area would translate into a little bit more attention, but our waitress did not seem to remember we existed most of the time, was not exactly friendly and said very few words when she did interact with us. She informed us that the restaurant did not offer any cocktails, and then I listened as the table behind me ordered an aperol spritz. The food was pretty severely under seasoned, we thought every dish we ordered was just totally lacking any salt at all, the only exceptions to this were the complimentary gazpacho shots the waitress delivered upon our arrival, and the fatty tuna, which was cooked perfectly. The marinated beef over rib was cooked perfectly, but unseasoned. The sauce it was served in also wasn't really seasoned, it was a very sweet tomato sauce but would have popped more with a touch of salt. The bread, oil and salt trio was very good - our favorite was the curry salt. The lemon pie for dessert was the best thing we had all night, and almost made up for the rest of the experience. Honestly, we had a meal the following night at regular place in town, and the food (and service!!) was so good that we ate the rest of the lomo saltado straight out of the takeaway box when we got back to the hotel after a show, and it was incredible. You can do better than eating here, there are a million other Carmens with the same beautiful view and better food and service.

I had Harira as a starter, very nicely done, and son Sam had lentil soup hooing it would appeal to the toddler (sadly he not want the lentils, just the broth -- but he too chowed down on the spaghetti). We ended up with several tagines -- I only tasted my own, the classic lamb with apricot and prunes, and it was excellent. My wife got the pastela and we got the briouat -- both were excellent. Our grandson had couscous with kefte and was pleased with it as well. They do not serve alcohol but almost all of us had the house-made lemonade with mint. The atmosphere was festive, with music from an Arab orchestra being shown on a large screen and piped throughout the restaurant. Heavily and prettily decorated, and the service was not only efficient but very friendly, with much attention to the children. It was getting late and we were taking home leftovers, but the dessert menu and dessert display were enticing, so we went for it. I had the tarta piconino, described as being the product of a local convent, Nafisa had the tart with three chocolates -- maybe just a little too rich. Our granddaughter had perhaps the bext dessert -- an almond tart stuffed with a layer of ground dates, and our grandson's tart with arroz con leche was an interesting presentation of that classic Spanish dessert. Nice place -- try it!

For the amount you pay, you get a LOT of food. Arabic Bread: Less than €2 for a huge basket of freshly baked bread. It was fluffy inside, crispy on the outside, and had a sour tang to it. This was definitely my favorite part of the meal. Eggplant Salad: cooked in spices like cumin and garlic, the eggplant was succulent but not sloppy. I really enjoyed eating this with my bread. Chicken Cous Cous with Caramelized Onions and Raisins: absolutely delicious. It wasn't overly sweet, and the almonds were the perfect nutty flavor to pair with it. I loved that it came in a clay pot that kept it super hot. The chicken was so tender it fell right off the bone. Though the chicken tasted a little old, the rest of the flavors made up for it. Lamb with Plums: the lamb I thought was a little dry, but we got many large chunks of lamb. Anywhere else this dish would cost €6 or 7 more. The dried plums soaked up a lot of the sauce and added some moisture to the dish. Again, very nicely balanced flavors. Zumo de kiwi, naranja, etc: Nothing special, but I did appreciate it was freshly made with the pulp still in it.
