El Orejas Cocinalenta — Restaurant in Granada

5 Stars – A Perfect Evening in Granada

My girlfriend and I had dinner here during our stay in Granada, and it ended up being one of the highlights of our trip. The service was exceptional—friendly, attentive, warm, and well-paced. We were made to feel truly welcome from the moment we arrived, with just the right amount of space and attention to enjoy a relaxed, intimate dinner.

The food? Absolutely incredible. • The steak was one of the best we’ve had—perfectly cooked, well-seasoned, and generous enough that we couldn’t finish it. • The appetizers were delicious and beautifully presented. • And the desserts…wow. We were introduced to a couple of regional specialties we’d never tried before, and they were unforgettable—creative, rich, and perfectly executed.

The quality of the ingredients and attention to detail were evident in every dish. It’s hard to strike the balance between great food, great atmosphere, and great service—but this place nailed it. For a restaurant that’s only been open six months, they’re already delivering a five-star experience....

Deeply disappointed is how I would describe our visit. We were given a table next to the toilet and situated so that my wife could only look at the back wall. Other parties of two came and sat at the tables we were told were only for larger parties. Service was slow, especially as they got busier. To start we did enjoy the burrata. Though it was less creamy inside than we are used to, the olives and tomatoes on the side were an interesting addition. Worst though was the steak. They left the large fat tail attached when weighing it so that nearly half of what we paid for was inedible and thrown away before it came back, almost cold and with no sizzle, from the grill. This is a sneaky way for them to charge a lot more without giving you any more. At €75 per kilo for the steak we chose they almost doubled our cost. The cauliflower was overcooked and falling apart but the wine was good, so plus one. Overall, not what we expected from reading the reviews. If you choose to eat here take note of how much they overcharge you for the steak and ask them to...

We stumbled upon this restaurant when we were looking for a place to have dinner. We saw the lively aged steaks on display . Unfortunately the servings were too large for 2 people so we decided to order another piece of meat.

The service was wonderful. The servers were very helpful in assisting us - explaining the different dishes.

We started with a wonderful tasting olive oil with yummy bread. We were given free appetizers while waiting for our main dish. The recommended red wine was full bodied an went perfectly well with the steak we had. When it came to dessert- their chef recommended the rice with milk which we were not keen on - we asked for the Bartolillo instead. They were so sweet and gave us a sample taste of the rice pudding and it was amazing!

It was so good we decided to go back the next evening just for the dessert! And the servers recognized us and served us with a wonderful smile and welcome back!

A must try in Granada! And say yes to the...
