Restaurante Ruta del Veleta

This place is wonderful- food was great, Victor our waiter was great too - so helpful. This place is sooo creative with their dishes - the new combos were super. Would come here again in an instant- definitely 2 thumbs & highly recommended!

Pro: creative decorations, parking lot across street, public restrooms, tasty chicken pastry lunch. Con: visited in October but dinning room very warm no air conditioning & waitresses very slow giving drink refills, all glasses on table empty had to ask for water but left before refill came.

Excellent service ambiance and food! Well deserved Michelin Star Restaurant with great atmosphere. Definetely worth to visit!

A place filled with so much history and beauty, the food was amazing truly remarkable, heavily recommended!!! a huge thank you to our host Debra who made this experience like no other, would visit again just for her, she’s truly a gem.

Absolutely delightful to dine here. Just across the street from our accommodation. Excellent food, excellent service, excellent decor. Everything was simply beautiful. Highly recommended if you are in the area. You will enjoy the experience as much as we do.

We had the pleasure of dining at Ruta del Veleta, and it was an unforgettable experience. The restaurant has a beautiful traditional interior, highlighted by its elegant decor. The atmosphere is both charming and sophisticated. We started with the baked octopus, which was absolutely incredible—tender and full of flavor. Another starter we had was the fig carpaccio with goat cheese, which was equally delicious. For the main course, we enjoyed the beef fillet and the Iberian pork, both cooked to perfection, tender and flavorful. The wine pairings, recommended by the attentive staff, were spot on and complemented the dishes perfectly. All in all, an excellent dining experience that I would highly recommend!

Best octopus i have ever tried!🐙 in general the food was amazing, even more amazing was the staff. Our server was Sebastian, he was great, friendly, funny and helped us a lot. He guided us through their menu and helped us to make the best choices for our meals❤️ the wine was also good. I think this is the best restaurant in Granada!

Delightful little restaurant with good food and friendly staff.

We were here after a Viking Ocean excursion to the Alhambra. This was a lovely spot for lunch with our group. The service was amazing and the food adventurous. The restaurant is nicely decorated if only too chilly. We started with a springy salad of greens and fruit. Main course was a lightly breaded chicken breast. Desert was a smattering of fruit and moose. None of these items were on the menu.

The food experience was not exceptional. There was a placard for the chef awarded Michelin Star 2025 but I felt the food was not bad, but not great. However, the service was good. The ambiance was exceptional. The rooms were ornate from ceiling down to the floor. Even walking up the stairs to the restrooms was a visual experience.

A big surprise. We were actually on our way to Alhambra with two bus loads of people and stopped here for lunch. Typically I don't expect much with this size group but this was outstanding. First the restaurant is gorgeous and intricately decorated. The staff were outstanding, most bilingual and fantastic, serving probably 80 people at once. Now the food was exceptional. We started with the freshest of salads which had tomatoes, endive, fresh pineapple, melon and orange along with some excellent iberico ham. Along with this some excellent homemade bread and local wine. The main course was a delightful chicken thigh en croute with a delicate sauce and pureed potatoes. For dessert the local speciality, Piononos de Santa Fe along with coffee. Again, all this was done with perfect timing and execution, a delightful experience.

We were there for lunch with a tour group. Great food, great service and an inviting decor. My wife had the sea bass and I had stuffed chicken. Both were fresh, tasty, with delicious sauces. The cheese cake was delicious.

this is the legendary best restaurant in Granada, 5 stars, amazing food, excellent service, it is a must if you come to Granada
