El Rana Verde de Aranjuez

A top-​quality and incredibly relaxed restaurant right in the heart of beautiful Aranjuez next to the river. Sitting at a table next to the river inside this surprisingly cool restaurant while the heat of midday stops everyone outside in their tracks makes you realise why Queen Isabella loved the oasis of calm which is Aranjuez so much. This is the quintessential place to eat while in Aranjuez, a great location to eat a large lunch before walking it off in the nearby Royal Gardens which hug the twists and turns of the river. The food is very high quality and ordering from the a la carte menu is an expensive business. Fortunately there are also several set menus and regular menus del dia to make lunch just a little more affordable. This is a great place, and I would not dream of spending a day in Aranjuez without eating at least one meal at the famous Green Frog!
