This place really had everything. An interesting menu with regional specialties and some Arab slicing. The service was prompt and helpful (it helped that this was not high season). And a perfect view of the Alhambra. Yes, you have to pay more to get that view.

The food at this restaurant really missed the mark. It's meant to be Spanish however one of the entrees came out like a home cooked stir-fry. Weird. The mains were more spanish however weren't very good. The view of the Alhambra is spectacular, I would recommend staying at the tapas bar upstairs and keep away from the restaurant.

I had the wonderful luck of coming here for the first time with my husband and parents. I say lucky because we all tried each others starters and mains. I feel that everyone else ordered better than I did, although my main course was definitely the most attractive on the plate. Highlights were my parents' lamb dishes and the Ruff...

The location and views are superb. The restaurant is off Mirador de San Nicolas and has excellent views or the Alhambra from it's terrace, particularly at night when it is lit up. Unfortunately the highlights stop there and to be honest you get the same view from the viewpoint 20 yards away anyway! The service was below average, the staff...

The El Huerto de Juan Ranas has probably the best views of the Alhambra and surrounding area in Granada. Whille it is true the menu is deceptively simple and quite expensive, the food is well cooked and very enjoyable , but this iis only part of the experience. To sit on the terrace and watch the sun go down on...

My fiance and I spent three nights in Granada. We came here the first night and were BLOWN AWAY by the view, the food, and the wine. I would say it is in the top 5 of my best meals ever - with the equation being: 1/3 food and wine, 1/3 atmosphere, 1/3 company. The people were friendly, and we...

Apart from the Alhambra, having drinks here was our favorite part of Granada. We did not eat, but had drinks here two days in a row. Very picturesque. After climbing up the winding roads and the steps to the San Nicholas Viewpoint, you MUST reward yourself with a relaxing view and a refreshing drink.

This restaurant is located in a very delectable vantage point at the top of the Albaycin, with sweeping views of the Granada, the Alhambra from its terrace. The sangria and the tapas are to well worth the walk up the winding roads to the reach the Mirador de San Nicholas.

Lovely terrace with tables and other terraces with white comfy sofas; overlooks the Alhambra - ideal to go before sunset and watch as the walled town is gradually lit against a darkening sky. And all the more dramatic with the snow-capped Sierra Nevada in the background.

We just stopped in for a drink in the middle of the day, so we can't speak to the whole meal experience, but as just about everywhere in Spain, the service staff was really nice about bringing a toddler along and very accommodating to off-menu requests. We would go back in a heartbeat.
