We opted for the set menu, which offers a great selection of choices and includes two drinks (wine, etc. , making it excellent value. We started with the famous red prawns, and they were cooked to absolute perfection—definitely the highlight of the meal. The rest of the courses were just as high quality. The service was professional and very attentive throughout. The space itself is beautiful, featuring a stylish semi-open kitchen that adds a nice energy to the room without being distracting. Highly recommended for a refined lunch experience.

Nice, courteous personalities with good expertise and charm. The house wine is fantastic, I like the balance of freshness and creaminess, very typical for good Garnacha Blanca from the Terra Alta. The interpretation of the dishes is fabulous and resembles the narrative of southern Catalan cuisine. Convince yourself with the pictures, because there is nothing wrong with the food and the menu. Thank you for the beautiful time in your establishment, gladly again!

Although the dishes are a little on the salty side, the flavor pairs beautifully with a glass of red wine. While I wish the portion sizes were a bit larger, the styling and taste more than make up for it. (Check out the photos in the “Product Menu” for a visual treat! The service is truly exceptional. The staff takes the time to introduce every dish and explain the intended eating sequence. Their thoughtful gestures—even providing a bucket of water for our flowers—add a personal touch that makes the dining experience even more memorable.

The chef spoke using his degustation menu about a small cityscape and easily made me feel the beauty of this small town and its rich of life river, words can't explain how beautiful experience I had. Service was also wonderful and even fun. PS: one of the best pigeons of my life, almost cried because remember about the one made by my grandma.

The restaurant had a very relaxed atmosphere that allowed us to enjoy a nice conversation while we tasted an explosion of flavors. Watching the chef work was like watching an opera itself. The passion and dedication he puts in every dish is second to none. I highly recommend this place next you are in Barcelona and if you are looking to immerse yourself in the Catalan culture, their degustation experience is a must
