Los Diamantes

Plaza Nueva

Los Diamantes is a Spanish institution. There are two on Calle Navas and both are constantly packed with locals noisily ordering drinks and consuming beautiful plates of fresh seafood, often of the deep-fried variety. A third branch on Plaza Nueva opened a few years ago and, whilst larger than its siblings is likewise constantly packed. Although a recent refurb has made it less funky, the food remains fantastic. Cold Alhambra beer in canas or crisp vino blanco seco served in tumblers perfectly complements the fabulous food. Get there early and stay there or there is no chance you'll get in!

Examples of tapas we have had on our many visits:

fried anchovies
spicy risotto with pork and seafood
fried King prawns
clams in garlic oil
deep fried vegetables
deep fried aubergines with honey and balsamic vinegar
mushrooms in garlic oil
razor clams
fried fish (various types)
herby chicken nuggets
