We went here for lunch. The restaurant is close to the beach, and has some sea view. Inside it´s…read morerather old looking, not fancy - more traditional. The food is ok, but this is a place for older Scandinavian people. In Almunecar is rare to find a Swedish/Danish speaking waiters/owner. We had several courses. The free appetizer was cocked potatoes with dill mayonnaises .The chicken salad was the best one, but the Chinese cabbage was a bit 80´s to us. I had clams, with a sauce of amongst others garlic and dill. At least 1/3 was not opened, so the starter was quite small. The main course, turbot, was very ordinary and the vegetables close to boring: cocked peas, carrots cauliflower and cooked potato with, yes dill. When you can eat great fish at Lute y Jesus almost next door and fantastic meat at Los Geranios some 100 meter from Sabina, there are no reasons to stop at the restaurant, if you´re not Scandinavian speaking and like a native tongue conversation.

Sabina restaurante is directly across the street from the beach at Almunecar. The restaurant is…read moreowned by a sweet Swedish lady who spoke perfect English. She personally comes out to explain the menu to you. They have a fantastic "menu del dia", menu of the day that consists of an appetizer, entree and dessert for 9.95 Euros. Grab a seat outside with a view of the beach and enjoy your utterly fresh fish. The sole was fantastic, grilled to perfection and very fresh. The mackerel was also very good if you like mackerel. It's a saltier more fleshy fish thant the sole. I also had the cod, but I preferred the sole more. All of the fish preparations are very simple so you can really taste the fish that you are eating. Also order the Gambas Pil Pil appetizer to share. The shrimps stewed in garlic and tomato is very flavorful and you must order the bread to eat with this otherwise it will be unbearably salty. As a side note, beware of jellyfish on the beach, they will sting!

We had a fine dinner here this evening -- a long walk from our AirBnB but worth every step, ALl…read morethe dishes were excellent (wel, spaghetti bolognese at a Moroccan restaurant? it was what our young granddaughter wanted, and she ate it heartily). 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!

I found the recommendation for this place on Condé Nast. Kind of surprising…read more If you want arabic, mediterranean food in Granada, it's a good sit down option. The ambience is appropriately styled. Service was fast, but they were kind of dismissive which tainted the experience. The food was kinda B, B-

The service was great, very pleasant, very attentive. The food was absolutely exquisite. I worry about freshness due to Covid with the lack of diners but not here. The seafood was as fresh and as flavorful as can be. We had grilled pulpo, which was all sliced over shredded cabbage. It was cooked perfectly, not too chewy and seasoned well. The marinated monkfish was also spectacular. It was immersed in the most delightful tomato sauce with little clams. The fish was not over cooked and was bursting with flavor. I couldn't get enough of the Marina sauce and had to eat it like a soup. The star of the meal, if it could get any better, was the mixed grilled fish. It was as if they went out, caught it, grilled it, and served it to me. The plate was loaded with all types of fish. Each one was like a taste of Andalucia. The flavors were delicate and bold all at once because of the variety of fish on the plate. Most of all this has to have been the biggest bargain at 15€ for about 2 pounds of fish. The menu is extensive so you can get seafood about any way you could think and meat is available as well. I looked around an every plate I saw looked like something I would love to try. This restaurant is fantastic and to me it was a real bargain! I would certainly return.
