Venta El Gallo

Great spot to take in some flamenco! The performers were absolutely top notch. My only critique was the layout, the foot work of a flamenco dance is pretty damn important I discovered upon this experience. And unless you’re seated in the front 2 rows, you’ll be looking over people’s heads and struggling to see it. That being said we still had a great time!

Reviews are so unbalanced. I agree with the bad ones as this is THE tourist trap. Food is really average, and you pay 30€! In Granada you will have much better. Hygiene seems an unknown concept (dirty glasses, dirty dishes) Flamenco show is fine, but gut feeling, you have better and cheaper options just around the corner

Terrible venue. Uncomfortable, cramped seats, jammed together in a way that blocks you from seeing anything but the performer’s determined faces and waving arms. Can’t see dance (flamenco is all about feet), can’t see guitar, can’t see anything. Staff stood by talking throughout. Dancers look talented, but they are betrayed by a terrible performance space. Go elsewhere.

This place is incredible! The show was amazing as well as the whole dining experience. Everyone was nice and friendly. The reservation process was smooth. Advice: please do not allow people to take photos or videos during the show. It was distracting.

Been there for their flamenco show, and it was fantastic. I have never experienced anything alike in my life. The show was so full of feelings, it made us cry, it took our breath away, and made our belly flip. I can most certainly recommend it, I will definitely go again when I visit Granada the next time.

We saw the most amazing Flamenco here. I was sceptical it would be overly touristy but the performance was simply amazing. The passion of the dancers was breathtaking. Can’t recommend highly enough.

Best Flamenco experience in Granada. If you want to be mesmerized by an 1 hour show and a very tasty meal, that's the place to go.

Went to a glance to show. 22€ and one drink is included. Enjoyed with the show, dancers and musicians seemed quite professional.

It is well worth booking the dinner and show package which is very good value. We requested a seat on the terrace which they kindly arranged and had an excellent dinner with amazing views over Alhambra. The show itself was wonderful and your ticket includes a couple of free drinks.

Been there in the afternoon for drinks and tapitas, it was wonderful! Came back the same day for the Flamenco show, and it was simply hypnotizing! One hour felt like 10 minutes. It might be a tourist thing, but oh my god it is worth every penny!!!! The place is a 5 minutes taxi from city centre, about 5 euro for 3 people. If you have the chance, DO NOT MISS IT!! There is not enough compliments to this place. Much love! 💕 + The kid at the end of the show was the highlight!

If you can get to it - Do it! The raw passion was palpable. We loved the energy and truth the performers bought. Truly a great show. A such gentle and kind service as well.

We’re taken there after a private tour of Granada and Albaicin…the show was fantastic and inexpensive compared to other venues. They include a drink with the price of admission and they also offer food for additional fee.

Dissapointed. Bad experience -I read about this place in a guidebook, it was described as authentic. Maybe it was in the past but now it's not. It's a typical tourist trap. -The staff (owner and manager) are scammers and very dishonest they seat people who had prepaid in bad places to leave the good ones for those who arrive later. (See pictures and story below). -Neither the food nor the show were worth the money spent on this. I would recommend finding other alternatives in Granada. But if you want to try this place, insist on sitting in a good place because they will try to seat you at the back saying that other seats are "reserved". -Dinner is extremely overpriced, such menus are usually for 20-25 euros maximum. You can simply have some drinks in the terrace, and then go to the show. - Dinner is served in two places, on the terrace (which is why I made the reservation in this place) and in the cave, behind the spectators of the show (which is where we were actually seated). When I asked the manager why can't we have dinner on the terrace, he said that it's completely full right now. I went up to see and as you see in the pictures there were 3 empty tables(see pictures) - After I went up and took the pictures the owner came so I told her that we weren't asked where we wanted to have dinner, and that the manager said that the terrace was full while in fact it wasn't at all. She said that "it's because they are reserved". Which is not true because while I was upstairs the same guy asked a waitress if there are empty tables for some people who had just arrived!!!! After ALOT of arguing, the owner said that if we want "later we can have a drink on the terrace". Obviously we didn't because we were already disgusted with everything in that place. -As for the show, the female dancers are not great. The male dancers, the singer and the guitarist were very good.

We went for dinner and a show. Dinner was on the terrace and overlooked the Alhambra which was amazing to see at sunset. The food was good but it’s a lot of food to eat before the show. We rushed to get through the cheese plate, entree and dessert. The dining area was small and there is a long narrow staircase up there so be careful! Service was great! Our waiter was funny and helpful. The show was amazing and worth it! We had been to Corral de la Moreria in Madrid and we think the dancers here were better. The seating area for the show is small. We were told it would be cramped and that was correct; it is in a cave after all! The show was only an hour though. They were also kind enough to call us a cab at the end of the show. There is only one restroom for each gender on the first floor so the lines at the end of the show will be long. The venue is also on the top of a steep hill and cabs don’t take you all the way up to the front door. Be ready to walk!

Our hotel booked this Flamenco dinner show for us. I am not a picky person, but for €62 per person (including transportation) this was extremely disappointing. Much of what we wanted to eat was not available and what we did order came to us cold or lukewarm at best. They did take it back and reheat it for us. The meat had no flavor at all and the flan was just horrid. The show was ok. The guitarist and dancers were quite good. It is an option to go and just see the show with drinks and I wish we had opted for that. The cave the venue it is built into is quite quirky, which can be a good thing. Personally for me, it just wasn’t very good.

AS a flamenco lover, I would say that this tablao offers really good flamenco show .Dancers and musicians are perfect!!! However, there is a HUGE drawback for this place: it is the hall itself. Looks like there was a round placement is the past, but show owners decided to earn more money and just get as many spectators as possible (without thinking if people really enjoy) You HAVE to see dancers' legs to fully understand and feel flamenco. However, the hall is TOTALLY flat, so people in the first 2 rows can see what you need, but all the rest can see just heads and the upper body parts. It is extremely bad if you are not a tall man or a child (as our 3 y.o. son) In addition, waiters are moving DURING the show decreasing visibility to even worst quality!!! SO, unless you are in the first rows in the hall -> not recommended if you really want to see flamenco. There are another tablao shows (in caves in particular) with the better accommodation.

Lovely little place with attentive staff. The flamenco was of a very high quality. We had a couple of short power cuts during the performance, but I had the impression that the people running the place worked hard to fix it and they cared their guests had a good experience.

I went there to see a flamenco show and I loved it! The performers were very talented and passionates. It's a small place so it felt intimate. And all the staff were very friendly.

Authentic flamenco show. Enjoyed the dinner + show package and the night was incredible!! Great energy & passionate performers that absolutely brought the entire stage to life

This show was amazing. I thought it was going to be over the top but it felt so much like an interpretive dance that I was mesmerized. The pain, the struggle, the triumph of the flamenco dance.

The flamenco show was outstanding, all of the dancers showed great talent! I would recommend booking early to get the best seats. The only critique I have of this place is that the seating area is flat and the stage is low. Thus, the people sitting in the back could not see much. Would recommend!

Quite a transformative experience to watch this performance in such a historically relevant place to the flamenco culture in Granada. It’s very intimate. It’s in a cave because of the history of the people who developed the dance. There’s the option to just watch the dance and skip the dinner which I think is the best option.

I booked the show from trip advisor and by far this is one of the best flamenco shows in Granada. The acoustics inside the caves gives a much better experience. Staff are very welcoming and service is amazing. Will definitely go there again to try the dinner and attend the show again in my next visit. I took a taxi there but unfortunately there is no mobile connection inside. Please press like if you found my review helpful. Thanks.

Amazing flamenco- The performers and musicians were absolutely spectacular! We live in Spain and therefore have seen a lot of flamenco! And I must say, the performers were just electrifying! It is in the “Sacramonte” area of Granada which are old caves! Very cool! We did dinner and performance, however I would say the food was “average” and could use a bit of work. Also, the service was a bit lackluster. We expected a bit more for the price. Dinner costs about €35-40 per person and the show was about €28. My recommendation is to simply go see the performance and skip dinner.
