Una experiencia espectacular! La mejor arrocería en la que he estado. El arroz estaba simplemente perfecto: en su punto, lleno de sabor y con ingredientes de gran calidad. Se nota el cuidado y la pasión en cada plato. El servicio fue excelente, muy atento y profesional, haciéndonos sentir como en casa desde el primer momento. El ambiente es acogedor y agradable, ideal tanto para una comida en familia como para una ocasión especial. Sin duda, volveremos. ¡Totalmente recomendable

La comida ha sido excelente, recomiendo muy mucho el arroz con rape y langostinos…delicioso! El servicio super atento y amable,Lourdes y su compañero fueron geniales. Tuvimos la suerte q el dueño estaba por ahí y tuvimos la mejor recomendación de la comida. También destacó el revuelto de morcilla y piñones y el croqueton de rabo de toro….Sim duda volveré!

Me gustó mucho el sitio, fui por las reseñas que tenía. Pedimos una croqueta de rabo de toro y pilpi y estaban riquísimas. Luego la paella de arroz negro muy bueno tambien. El arroz estaba en su punto y eran 17,80€/por persona. La cuenta nos salió en 51€. Un poco elevado para un platos de arroz y una croqueta. Quizás por estar en el centro de Granada es entendible.

¡Una MA-RA-VI-LLA! No tengo palabras. Todo delicioso y la atención, impecable: desde los entrantes, pasando por los arroces, hasta los postres. Y aunque lo esencial en un restaurante es la comida y el trato, el baño merece mención aparte: especial, ingenioso, sorprendentemente cuidado y con detalles que no esperas… de esos que te sacan una sonrisa y te hacen pensar: “qué bien pensado está todo”.

Comida excelente. Arroces variados y algunos diferentes al tipico arroz deñ senyoret, a banda...el del Pinos con carscoles buenisimo. Servicio atento y de 10. Ambiente tranquilo. Y no es caro.

A destacar el trato de Lourdes , te aconseja sobre cantidades según el número de comensales que íbamos . Los arroces son espectaculares, camareros rapido atentos . Tanto calidad como atención y precio a destacar , volveremos como siempre!!!

Fantastic place for paellas in the heart of Granada! I am actually Spanish but I brought my american wife and her parents and they loved it! We had two paellas, the shellfish one and the chicken and veggies one and they were awesome! They are perfect paellas. Trust me, I am Spanish and I know what I good paella tastes like! 100% recommended!!

Service, food and ambience was amazing. We live in California and we will definitely be back. Highlight of our trip to Granada. The paella was amazing

Camille Tokerud

We came to Granada craving authentic paella, and this restaurant exceeded every expectation. The seafood paella was absolutely incredible — rich, perfectly cooked, and full of flavor. Our host was so welcoming and kind, treating us like royalty from the moment we arrived. We loved it so much that we asked to return the next day, and she graciously held a table for us at noon. When we arrived, it was waiting — such a thoughtful gesture! The second meal was just as amazing, paired with great wine and a warm, inviting atmosphere. A true highlight of our trip and a must-visit for anyone in Granada. Highly, highly recommended!

My wife and I have very high standards for paella, and we were not disappointed. We ordered the seafood paella which was served with langostino, prawns, shrimps, clams, and mussels. They were able to make it with socarrat for us as well, upon our request. The paella was delicious and satisfied our craving for a proper Valencian paella.

Beth Williamson

Excellent food with fantastic service and wonderful atmosphere. Food was both authentic and so tasty. We had croqetas and monkfish salad to start and a black squid paella and chicken and vegetable paella. We were well looked-after and had a brilliant evening.

Hands down one of the best paellas I've tasted in my life! Texture of the rice is just right and the flavour is well balanced too. Not to mention a nice crust at the bottom as well. The tinto verano was tasty and so refreshing in this summer heat too! Muchas gracias por la comida!

Nina Shibly

a hidden gem nestled between heritage streets, offering authentic homemade Spanish food. We ordered the seafood paella with shrimps and monkfish, which was an excellent choice. The endives with Roquefort were a delightful surprise—very tasty! The restaurant also has a lovely outside terrace, perfect for enjoying your meal. Highly recommended!

Barbara Sia

Yes, all the reviews are definitely true! An awesome restaurant with a nice and family atmosphere! Delicious paella, great service and something money can’t buy - kind and friendly ambience 🙏🏻❤️

Carson Canulette

Best paella in Granada! Best food in Spain! I ordered the chicken croquetas, garlic soup, and paella. Everything I had was incredible! So so delicious! If you are looking for great food in Granada, you can't go wrong with Maese Pio. I will be coming back next time I visit. Beyond the food, the location is convenient and the ambience is tasteful. Prices are fair for the quality and quantity of food being served. Service is friendly as well! Thanks again, Juan Miguel!

Amazing! Had the paella arroz a banda and it was wonderful. Shrimp and monkfish were wonderful. Calm, quiet atmosphere on a dead end street. Indoor and outdoor seating. Will 100% return

Rebecca Stadler

I went to Maese Pío with a large group. The food and service were both excellent! This is a perfect place for authentic paella with more of a local feel. Within our group, we tried 3 different kinds of paella and the croquettes. Would recommend to anyone!

Lovely tasty paella. Home cooked food that is plated to you from the host. Great red wine selection. Amazing, tasty desserts.

The oxtail croquetta had great flavor and the mixed fried fish was nice but needed lemon or lime to really bring out the taste.

Ecem Karabay Özder

The paella is really good. You order for at least two people, however, the price on the menu isn’t divided into two. I cannot say the same for the croquettes, they weren’t good. Also know that you will pay for the bread brought to the table, 1€ for each. The service staff is really good, although she doesn’t understand English, we manage to order the food and she served the paella herself. We got seated outside, it was quite hot but the heat wasn’t the problem: it was the huge cockroach! It wasn’t nice to have it crawling around.

Graham Edward Parker

Fantastic selection of Paella rice dishes and liquid rice. We enjoyed a paella with an egg crust that had rabbit,chicken,sausage, plus other ingredients cooked to perfection. I've never seen a paella that didn't slide out of the pan when held vertical. See photo. Highly recommended.

This place is a 3.5 stars but gave them 4 because... The location and the ambiance are pretty good and that part deserves a 4 stars. My waitress was very nice and patiente even if the place was busy and that is a 5 stars. The food is good but definitely not a 4 stars but rather a 3.5. I got the shrimp/salmon with asparagus and it was larger than I anticipated and the taste was good. Then I got the paella and it was too salty for my taste but I think it was a 3.5/4 for people that don't mind salt. But the size was good too. A group of young kids wanted to enjoy theirs. Didn't try the desert this time.

Our lovely Airbnb super-hosts had this place listed on their recommended eateries nearby. We’d yet to have paella on our Spanish adventure - so we were really looking forward to it. We don’t speak Sp…

First day in Granada, together with my girlfriend. We craved for a paella and we entered this restaurant… Unfortunately the chicken paella is the most salty dish I’ve eaten in my life…

Hoy fuimos cinco personas al restaurante Maese Pío. Ya habíamos hecho la reserva ayer, pero hoy la camarera nos dijo que teníamos que comer fuera, en la terraza. Sin embargo, no vimos esa información en Internet, ya que online decía que se podía comer dentro. La gestión nos pareció muy mala. Además, sentimos que nos observaban constantemente, lo cual resultó incómodo. En la carta vimos el precio de la paella, pero la camarera nos dijo que el pedido mínimo era para dos personas y que costaba 24,60 €. Al final pedimos paella para cinco personas y cada uno tuvo que pagar un plato de paella, lo que nos pareció muy caro, aunque el sabor no estaba mal. Ojo, hay que tener cuidado porque la camarera nos engañó o actuó de forma poco clara. Una de las camareras se llama Lourdes, no nos gustó su actitud, fue poco amable. No recomiendo este restaurante, no merece la pena.

Wish I could give a better review, but the paella is very salty. I couldn’t finish it. I don’t know if this is the standard taste or is it just my liking. However, i would not recommend this restaurant. :(

Terrible place. A tourist trap that will charge you 40 euros for 2 plates of dry rice with almost no seafood. A complete scam, don’t go there.

ES: Maese Pío Arrocería se presenta en redes como un restaurante comprometido con la excelencia, la técnica y el detalle, donde cada paella es “una obra de arte”. Lamentablemente, nuestra experiencia estuvo muy lejos de esa imagen. El arroz mixto con conejo, rape y langostinos llegó pasado, blando y mal ejecutado, con marisco que no estaba fresco. No era una paella ni por textura ni por sabor, y desde luego no justificaba el precio. Las croquetas, tanto de boletus como de chipirones, estaban claramente recalentadas: sin estructura, aguadas y con temperaturas desiguales. El cava se sirvió sin gas y en copas sucias, lo cual resulta difícil de entender en un restaurante que presume de calidad. El servicio fue correcto por parte de la mayoría del equipo, excepto por una camarera, Lourdes, cuya actitud fue descortés, brusca y poco profesional, arruinando por completo el ambiente del almuerzo. Además, varios platos y bebidas que habíamos pedido nunca llegaron a la mesa, como dos rondas de bebidas y el steak tartar, aunque al menos no se nos cobraron. En resumen, la experiencia no estuvo a la altura de lo que Maese Pío promete ni de lo que se espera de una arrocería que se define como referente. Falta de cuidado, mala ejecución y un trato inaceptable marcaron un día que debía haber sido especial. EN: Maese Pío Arrocería markets itself as a place of “commitment to excellence” and “each perfect paella…a work of art”. Unfortunately, our Christmas lunch was far from that. The mixed rice with rabbit, monkfish, and prawns was soggy, undercooked, and the seafood was not fresh—nothing like the “generous, full-of-flavor” paella promised. The croquettes were microwaved, falling apart, and unevenly heated. Drinks arrived flat in dirty glasses. Most staff were polite, but one server, Lourdes, was rude, abrupt, and unhelpful, completely overshadowing the meal. On top of that, several items we ordered, including two rounds of drinks and steak tartare, never arrived—though at least we weren’t charged for them. If you expect the attention to detail and quality Maese Pío advertises, you will be disappointed. Poor execution, low-quality ingredients, and unprofessional service ruined what should have been a festive lunch.

Tuve una comida con un grupo de más de 10 personas con grandes expectativas del restaurante, pero el resultado fue contrario al que esperábamos. El menú fue mucho más caro solo por llevar el adjetivo “comida de Navidad”, los arroces que tomamos eran comunes y algunos de ellos algo quemados, nada a la altura de una arrocería. Lo peor de todo fue la atención que recibimos. La señora que nos atendió fue una maleducada, nada agradable. Se le calló una bandeja con bebidas nada más llegar nosotros y desde entonces nos hablaba con malos modos todo el tiempo. Yo no vuelvo a ir. Como ves en el comentario, sí que he estado comiendo con vosotros.

the service was unfriendly, no one talked english, they messed up all our food. We order fish and pork as a main dish for around 20€ each, and received small starter of cold jamón and plate of salats with few cold prawns. The prices were high. But the paella was delicious, but also quite expensive - 20€ per person, and you should take 2 plates minimum. Would not recommend to take anything else except paella

Sydnie Kang

AVOID. The slowest service I’ve ever experienced in Andalusia. We’ve been waiting for our starter for literally an hour and came only one anchovie(which is cold and doesn’t require any cooking). I can’t even think when the paella would arrive. Unless u have a lot of spare time to kill or u r not so hungry, DONT COME

We were actually looking for another restaurant with good rank, but unfortunately that one was closed due to public holiday. My companies felt tired and picked this one randomly. That was a wrong choice. The black squid seafood rice was salty and doesn't taste good. The grilled shimp were not well cooked. Three of us all agreed to give this restaurant 2 star, and truly not recommended. Change the star from 2 to 1 finally because this restaurant charge 1.2euro per person for service fee, and they don't have any service at all！！！
