Restaurante Mirador Carmen de San Miguel

The Mirador Carmen de San Miguel Restaurant is located on the hillside of the Alhambra in Granada, at the foot of the Torres Bermejas, in the historic Realejo neighbourhood, the former medieval Jewish quarter. The property stands as a silent witness to significant historical moments, including the flight of the last Nazarene king Muhammad XII, known as Boabdil, and has hosted notable cultural figures such as the Russian composer Mikhail Glinka during the winter of 1845-1846. The venue exemplifies the tradition of the granadino carmen, a type of historical estate that combines a house, garden, orchards, fountains, and ponds, restored and adapted for contemporary use. The restaurant offers spacious terraces, patios, and dining rooms with panoramic views over Granada and the Sierra Nevada, creating a romantic and elegant atmosphere ideal for special occasions. Its culinary identity embraces the New Andalusian Cuisine, fusing traditional foundations with innovative techniques. The kitchen utilizes local and seasonal ingredients sourced 100% from Granada, chosen for their distinctive flavors and contrasts. Chef Jorge Matas leads the kitchen, renowned for his mastery and numerous accolades. The Gastronomic Menu highlights the best seasonal products from Granada and its surroundings, complemented by a wine pairing menu and a selection from the à la carte menu.
