El Balcón de la Virgen

Without a doubt, the cuisine in this establishment is excellent, but its most peculiar aspect is the façade, to which the restaurant owes its name, the "Virgin's Balcony" in English. Above said balcony on the first floor, you'll see the statue of the Virgin Mary, lighted at night. If you're walking through the Old Quarter, it's easy to find this small restaurant specializing in traditional fried fish: with extra-hot olive oil. If you prefer, they also prepare an exquisite calderada de mariscos (seafood pot). However, if you're a meat-lover, try their fillets in paprika sauce. The wines are very good, but the beer is even better, drawn directly from the keg and always very cold.

El Rodeito

This popular restaurant has a wood stove, and they serve the best meat dishes in the city. The architecture resembles an American ranch, and the inside resembles a renovated inn, surrounded by plants and greenery. The atmosphere is very relaxed. There are all kinds of traditional Spanish dishes on offer, such as meat with seasonal vegetables and delicious cakes. This establishment has won a number of awards, including the Master Internacional de Empresas.

Casa de la Era

Casa de la Era is a restaurant specialized in local cuisine. The decor is select and the natural beauty of the surroundings couldn't be finer: views to the Sierra Blanca mountain range, trees, lush plants, and stone fountains, all very Andalusian. For starters, try the ajo blanco, a cold soup similar to gazpacho and ensalada malagueña, a salad made with cod, potatoes and oranges. The chef's specialties, in terms of main courses, are the raya al pimentón (ray in paprika sauce) and oxtail with red wine sauce. No matter what you choose, however, you won't go wrong. There is an excellent wine cellar, along with a posh ambiance and professional service.

Sidrería Manolo

This restaurant is decorated as a traditional inn, with white walls, wooden tables and brick, but instead of having hams hanging from the roof, there are barrels of cider and Leon pork. The restaurant specializes in the cuisine of northern Spain, with dishes such as bean stew, red Tolosa beans with chorizo, black pudding, bacon, chorizo cooked in cider, and the shoulder of suckling lamb. If you prefer fish, try the cod in parsley sauce or al pil-pil, which is very spicy. For dessert, good options include the tarta de Santiago and yemas de Santa Teresa. There's a good wine list and excellent service.
