Bar Aliatar Los Caracoles

We visited this place after our hotel receptionist recommended it. He joked that this place is the second best for snails in Granada, the first best being his mother’s! After having a lunch here, we completely understand why it is highly recommended. The snails were the best we’ve had. We also tried the berenjenas con miel. This was aubergine, thinly sliced and served with sugar cane syrup. CMIIW! The croquettes came in a minimum of 3 pieces and very delicious. Finally, our server recommended their special almond dessert. It was perfect, crunchy but not overly sweet. The food was excellent, prices were extremely reasonable, and the service was warm and genuine. Also it’s important to note that staff don’t expect tips and were actually surprised when we left one. This said a lot about the honest hospitality. A a true local experience in Granada!

Server was rude after he learned that I didn’t want to order food: when I asked about drink menu, he said there were no drinks on the menu - but of course the drinks were listed at the end of the menu: I suspect it was communication issue as he didn’t understand any English and I only know basic Spanish. Got only 1 tapa for 2 drinks ordered - drinks were not great, overpriced, had to wait for 18 minutes for waiter after ordering 1st drink- overall a disappointing experience: won’t be back and can’t recommend. Had much better experience, customer service and tapas at other restaurants.

Went there only for drinks but were given a free tapas of snails with lots of spices. Perfect for the Grenada ambiance. Nice service even if there is only one server that understands English.

Never give up! Thanks Sariel, it was quite an exciting experience in Albyzin neighbourhood.

Highly highly recommend! We came here to try the famous caracoles which come as a free tapa with a drink. I also had the best tomato salad on the planet Tomates Asados which was simply delicious, very simple but so flavourful! We also tried the aubergine with honey, the pil pil prawns and the octopus! Everything was amazing! We went once for dinner (we booked on the way up to Michael’s viewpoint for sunset, then returned here) and we also came the very next day for lunch because I wanted to have that tomato salad at least another time before I die! Sounds dramatic but I still think about it lol. It got busy for lunch too, so I definitely recommend popping in to book before. Oh and I didn’t mention the staff, so nice and friendly, working hard with so many tables inside and outside. We were outside both times, as the atmosphere was great in the little buzzy square near the little fountain. Don’t skip this if you’re in Granada!

Lovely restaurant. The food is absolutely delicious, a treat. The staff are super friendly and accommodating. We stayed in Granada only one night and visited twice it was that good. The callos, snails and habas con jamón were amazing. Would highly recommend!

Local tavern, famed for it's namesake, Los Caracolles. And yes we did eat the snail and loved it. Also had the grilled octopus which was delicious. Would come back again.

This place was okay. I like that their aperitivo was snails (matches the name). The pulpo gallega I got was ok….drenched in oil and salt, a bit too salty and didn’t have any potatoes or anything. 18€ is a bit much for what I got. But location isn’t bad.

This was one of the most comfortable & tasty places we ended up trying. They served us a healthy portion of snail tapas with a rich and delicious sauce. We enjoyed our time at this bar & would definitely recommend it if you are on the hunt for some deliciousness with out any pretentiousness & fluff.

super good deal with dried fish with menu del dia. Only €8.5 include appetizer and dessert .

Super cool, low-key hang for locals. For many years, the only thing on the menu was their delicious snails (caracoles) but the new owners expanded the menu. The servings were huge and the food delicious!
