1. Biloba
Restaurant of modern kitchen with dishes from different cultures ranging from the traditional salmorejo to a Mombai style lasagna. It is one of the relatively new bets in Granada and we love to go there.

We discovered this restaurant thanks to its fork discount and since then it has become one of our favorites must-do's for a good meal in Granada. They have a balanced cuisine between the traditional and the most innovative techniques, so you can go to eat from a seafood paella that they make very good to some eggplant meatballs or some gnoccis.
