"do not eat here"

Review: This place was the absolute low point of our trip to Spain. After getting quite excited by the menu, we got a table downstairs. It seemed quite nice, if a little cramped.

I ordered a veg moussaka and my partner asked for a curry. When mine came, it was actually a spinach lasagne (not a potato, aubergine or lentil anywhere in sight), but I was hungry so I didn't complain.

Both meals had obviously been pre-prepared and microwaved, they looked and tasted awful. The veg in the curry was so overcooked it practically melted in your mouth, and the pasta sheets in my "moussaka" tasted like plastic.

Maybe this place is good for meat eaters or if you just want to drink tea or smoke a hooka, its location guarantees it to be packed with tourists. But do not eat here if you are looking for any kind of decent, fresh vegetarian food.

 
Pros: location * *
Cons: awful food * food not as described * microwave city

Review: I can echo others disappointment. It has nice ambience, but food was terrible. We had Indian curry and vegetarian couscous. It was cold in the middle, maybe microwaved, over cooked veggies on top and very little sauce on the grain.
I saw nice looking desert but did not dare to order as the pricing was not cheap in this place.
I would go there for a drink (expensive though) to rest/ look out to the street but not for eating.
It is really a pity as it could do so much with the location.

Review: Looks great but we were really disappointed by our visit. It wasn't overly busy but the staff were completely over whelmed. A long wait for somebody to take our order then several things weren't available (eg orange juice) right at the beginning of service. Food when it came was good but it took more prompting for it to actually be delivered and even then there was some 15 min between my food and that of my wife being served. All in all a disappointing visit.
 
Pros: Tasty food * Plenty of vegetarian choice *
Cons: Poor service * *

Review: Really great place - full of atmosphere, amazing veggie choice (in a city where elsewhere I was offered snail soup in response to my explanation that I didn't eat meat or fish) and helpful staff who gave us an impromptu Spanish lesson and how to pour tea the Arab way! I loved the cous-cous with heaps of dried fruit and chick peas and also the Moroccon tea which squeezed the contents of a small herb garden into the teapot. A must when in Granada
 
Pros: Atmosphere * Veggie choice * Teas, teas and more teas
Cons: * *

Review: It's been 3 years since I was here, so the memory has faded. It's right amidst all the Arab markets and had a really nice vibe to it. It was great to get out of the heat! I had a fresh carrot-apple juice which, after living on bananas, tuns sandwiches, and Cheerios my first week in Spain, seriously hit the spot. I had a really yummy spinach dish -- I can't remember what it was exactly but it was delicious -- and my boyfriend the vegetarian lasagna. There was an adorable little boy playing peekaboo the entire time. It was a wonderful experience!

"Expensive reheated food"

Review: I was starving (usually things taste better then) and ordered hummus/pita bread and a vegetable samosa. Thankfully I didn't order more, as it was already expensive and when the food came it was a VERY thin layer of hummus spread across the plate which obviously came from a package (many places here do make it themselves) accompanied by semi-stale pita bread straight out of a plastic bag (I know what fresh or even heated tastes like). The empanada was obviously reheated as it was greasy and the pastry was mushy. Like fried food you take home for leftovers hoping it will be good the next day... it never is. Much better places than this in Granada to find the few vegetarian items they have.
 
Pros: good music * *
Cons: poor quality food * expensive *
