Restaurante La Garganta

Culinary Oasis at Restaurante La Garganta in El Chorro

Finding Restaurante La Garganta was like uncovering a hidden culinary treasure in the remote beauty of El Chorro. Having dined here twice, the restaurant has proven itself as a beacon of exceptional cooking in an area with limited options. Each dish we savored was a testament to the chef’s prowess.

The tomato salad, featuring fresh garden tomatoes, was a refreshing start, while the grilled tomatoes topped with goat cheese married rustic flavors beautifully. The duck accompanied by confit apples was cooked to perfection, with the sweetness of the apples complementing the rich duck. The classic salad with an innovative cauliflower cream was a delightful surprise, introducing a creamy texture to the greens.

However, the standout was the salad with grilled mushrooms and pine nuts - an explosion of earthy flavors that left us absolutely impressed. The stuffed cabbage was comforting and well-executed, and the secret iberico ham, grilled flawlessly, was a showcase of quality ingredients treated with respect.

Restaurante La Garganta is a must-visit for those in El Chorro, offering dishes that are both simple and extraordinary, leaving you with the realization that sometimes the best meals are found in the most unexpected places.

Great. I loved the authentic Christmas selection, prices very reasonable and service friendly. They are welcoming people with allergies, I have a gluten one and was able to choose from plenty of options.

What an amazing view! The hotel is absolutely stunning. The restaurant is well looked after with huge windows to enjoy the incredible views. Food is very good with great service. We were there with a very energetic 2 year old, and the staff went above and beyond to help occupy her attention with different things. Prices are ok. It's worth a visit when in the area. Recommend!

Basically the only restaurant after the hike, but fortunately it was good!
The view is stunning, the portion are generous and the food is good! Ordered a grilled pork, it's huge, delicious and served with vegetables.
The brownies was homemade but I didn't like it at all, wouldn't recommend it.

Great food. We sat in the glass section and it was bright and beautiful. Courteous waiters. We ordered cod in tomatoes, tenderloin in thyme sauce, pork in straganoff sauce, chicken fillet with rice and migas (breadcrumbs, chorizo, egg).

Nice little restro! Staff is fast and pleasant! Had a lovely breakfast here with my daughter on the way to a hike!
Mango and pineapple were delicious!!
And prices are very reasonable… esp with the view!

Enjoy!

Great view of El Chorro and the food was good quality and prepared quickly, the staff were nice and communicating in English was not an issue.

I made a reservation a few days before and got a table by the glass railing on golden hour, the views were stunning! The food was very nice too, lots of options.

Great place! We were here 4 years ago and now we had the chance to come back! Very good food and nice service. Highly recommend for lunch when you finish the Camino del Rey.

Cute little Spanish restaurant. Amazing breakfast and drinks. Highly recommend make a stop here before or after your Camilito del Rey hike!

I recently dined at this restaurant, and I must say, it was an excellent experience. The food was delicious, and the service was top-notch. Additionally, the presentation of the dishes was impressive. I highly recommend this place for a great dining experience.

No idea why so many bad reviews.
The waiter, a funny and Friendly guy. Food was brought fast, small linch. Had an avocado salade and a paleo goat cheese salade, which is a huge portion, you need a half an hour to finish it 😁, put into a cup formed of baked cheese. Yummy.
Very reasonable prices.
Yes, some girls that serve could be a bit friendlier...but no harm done, u don't go there for socializing.

Excellent waiting for the bus. Very friendly staff. Good wifi (4 Mbit download)

Great food and service! Awesome view from the garden terrace.

Friendly and supportive personnel, delicious local drinks and meals from local ingredients.
Some tables outside have a fantastic view into the gorge.

Wonderful drive up to the lakes. Great views and very generous portions of food.

Fabulous food and friendly staff. Great views of the gorge and reservoir.

We were only here for breakfast and great satisfaction, crispy croissants, scrambled eggs, pastries, ham, a great base for climbing and hiking expeditions.

Tempura fried vegetables are one of my favourite tapas from entire Spain

Very nice place, prices are a bit high, but they are very kind and food was good.
