Authentic northern Spanish cuisine. Everything tasted great — very rich and satisfying. I ordered the menu and found the stuffed peppers and tuna with mushroom bechamel to be the perfect comfort food for a cloudy day.

We stopped here today on a way from Gaudi's Park to Segrada Familia. We ordered sangria (which was very nice), pork carpacio (very delicious) together with bread with tomatoes and one of the best dishes I have ever eaten - potatas bravas with octopus. The place is small, but there are seats also outside. The music was just the right type for us (jazz) and the service was very good. It is highly recommended and the best place we have eaten so far in Barcelona. It may not be fine dining, but the food is 5 star plus for a very reasonable price!!! Absolutely delicious. Thank you.

Lovely place, visited today. Great menu selection, and awesome location especially if you’re doing the hop on hop off tour and walking to Sagrada familia. The highlight was the service by Diego - it was excellent! He really made sure we felt welcomed. I recommend.

Food was incredible, we had the set menu and every dish topped the other. Staff was a bit slow with giving us our table despite booking before but the incredible food made up for it. Would highly recommend.
