The restaurant of the Casas Cueva del Tío Tobas, in Alcudia de Guadix: a cave dining room, wood-fired oven, suckling lamb and views of Sierra Nevada.

Eating inside a cave
The restaurant is part of the Casas Cueva del Tío Tobas, a kilometre from Alcudia de Guadix and about 13 minutes by car from Guadix. The dining room is dug into the hill, like the complex's caves, and there are also private dining rooms and tables outside, with views of Sierra Nevada.
What to order
The cooking is the region's traditional kind, which the house calls Arab-Andalusian, and what sets it apart is the wood-fired oven. From it come the pork ribs and other meats; the suckling lamb chops, from the mountains of the area, are done on the grill. To start, the house salad with produce from its vegetable garden, griddled vegetables, salchichón tartare or artichokes with anchovy alioli. For dessert, homemade fig tart.
The menu with prices is not published on the website: ask when you book.
