We stopped here because it was open while most of other places were closed and we were hungry. It’s Granada so you get free tapas if you order a drink. The food itself was really good. The presentation was nice and the whole aesthetic of the restaurant was beautiful. The staff were helpful and overall we had a great experience.

The atmosphere at Irreverente is really nice, warm and welcoming, with a stylish touch that makes it a great place to enjoy a meal. The food was very good, we tried the Caesar salad and their own special Speciasalat, and both were delicious. Everything tasted fresh and well prepared, highly recommended if you're looking for a spot with great vibes and flavorful dishes.

Great little restaurant that serves lunch early by Spanish standards. We got the house tortilla with cheese and ham that was lovely and fluffy and patatas bravas, plus on of their toasts with iberico. Everything was delicious, washed down with their own Vermouth and Nordes G&T. Super friendly service too. Recommend!!!
