Smaller, cozy full of character Bar area and the whole place is filled with bottles. 5 tables outside but for me inside was much more interesting. I ordered a Verdejo and my Server brought out a complimentary tomato Tapa and Salami. Tomatoes were super fresh and slightly salted-delicious! Everything on the menu looked good! I ordered the Sturgeon, Foie Gras and White Sausage. The Sturgeon was exquisite with the tomatoes and peppers pairing perfectly! Should have taken the big order. Foie Gras and white sausage (mild) were simple, tasty and didn't disappoint. My Server was friendly and worked to bring out the dishes as they were ready given my time crunch. About an 8 minute walk from the city center and well worth it. Make the stop for some high quality/reasonably priced Tapas and Wine in a unique space.

Stumbled upon this little neighborhood gem so close to our rental apartment and wow. Great service, great atmosphere, there is outdoor seating or indoor with comfortable seating.

Everything hit the spot perfectly, was served promptly and they even give you a complimentary appetizer when you order your drinks. I would definitely come back!!!

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. Comimos media porción de deditos de pollo frito que sirven con una salsita espectacular - lo recomiendo. Y, por supuesto nos convenció a tratar la torrija hecha de forma inigualable y calientica.

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.

5 Totally earned stars for food that had us returning the next day for more!…read more We stumbled upon Casa Mazal while walking around the small streets in town and the decor and delicious smells pulled us in. We were seated right away (a fairly large party) and ordered Muhammara and bread to start and a sangria pitcher. The sangria glasses came with a cinnamon stick and fruit inside them- which added a nice touch and made this one of our favorite sangria experiences of the trip. The muhammara and bread were the perfect start. The bread seemed fresh and the muhammara was rich and deep in flavor. We ended up ordering the reinvention of hummus and reinvention of falafel for the table and they were devoured by all. Definitely recommend! Two other dishes I'd recommend trying are the eggplant with honey and sesame seeds dish as well as the gazpacho with mango. Both these dishes sounded unusual to our American tastebuds, but we were thrilled we ordered them because they hit that ideal balance between sweet and savory. Once again, I cannot recommend this place enough. Everything from service, to ambiance, to dishes were superb!

We were seated on the terrace with a beautiful view of the Alhambra. The menu included innovative riffs on classic Andalusian dishes. The Iberian pig cheek was meltingly tender yet rich in taste and the Octopus and boletus risotto beautifully balanced the briny sweetness of the octopus with the earthy tones of the boletus (better known as porcini mushrooms in Italian and English) Service was unhurried but attentive creating a lovely setting for quiet conversation.. Their wine list was thoughtfully curated with a focus on smaller Spanish producers offered more than a few delightful choices.

Though a restaurant can't rely on views to thrive. We found the architecture of the restaurant is also very special. A Buddha statue greets you at the front. You can have the garden seating or balcony seatings that get the glimpse of Alhambra. We chose the latter with following dishes: Arroz Pulpo, and Bacalao a La Plancha. The pan seared cod was tender and fresh coupled w/ fried pumpkins and beans. To add the flavor, three thin slices of pork belly (fat) were placed on top of the cod. The octopus risotto and octopus in black rice were something interesting. Personally I think the black rice octopus was taster than the risotto, which was too rich in butter and cream. The sangria was not that impressive, maybe the red was too dry and not enough of fruits. If you do go there, please remember to spread some mosquitoes repellent. Because while you dine, they also have their meals.
