This gorgeous restaurant is the best in Granada. Beautiful house and garden create a warm romantic ambiance. Jardin d'Orion is a restaurant very near the old town (parque central.)
The food is great - best food we had in five weeks in Central America. Very fresh food.
The restaurant had a very nice wine selection.
This is a excellent restaurant at moderate price. You must go to jardin d'Orion if you are visiting Granda

Set in a gorgeous colonial building next to Granada's market, you will get rooms that may be a bit dark, but in beautiful surroundings. They provide a kitchen, but most of all it is a safe place.
The couple that owns this place, and knows every customer, will be on their rocking chairs, with their radio. Somehow in a city where other places have armed guards, their presence is a better protection.
Calle Atravesada in front of the market.
While you are in Granada and if you are tired of Gallo Pinot, the ever present rice and beans, maybe you should try Pususas from Don Ramon.
It is a typical dish from Salvador that Don Ramon and his wife dish out from a grill located in the main street, Calle Atravesada, one and a half blocks up from the market.
At around 50 pence these pancakes can be served with a traditional filling of cheese, frijoles, or chicharon, or more modern ones such as spinach.
If you ask nicely they will explain to you how to make it, from scratch, and you will make your own one if they don't have many customers waiting.
This restaurant is a few blocks off the main tourist trail and as such attracts a fair few locals as well as visitors. It's owned by a guy from Alabama and does the finest ribs I've ever tasted.
They were so good, we went back three times.
It also has live music at weekends.
