I had not been in el Montseny since I relocated to the US years ago, so it was a wonderful day reconnecting with the past. This beautiful, old school restaurant is decorated very rustic, lots of wood and cozy and familiar atmosphere. I enjoyed the simple yet highly quality food, the wine served in the classic porron glass and every single moment there, the smells, the homey factor. Very recommendable for large groups.

It truly feels like you are going to someone's home to have a meal. And when I say "meal", it truly is a proper lunch or dinner. I hate to mention the fact of the cost @13euros for the Lunch Menu because this comida is not good because it's cheap; It's Great, period! You have a selection of first courses, mains, & desserts, along with Cerveza or Vino and Locally-Fresh Bread. The presentation is the work of an artist, with the Best part being that the garnishes are Not after-thoughts. The berries, or lavender, or sauces/purées/compotes/herb spreads/garlic aioli/etc are not there for mere show or theatrics. They can and do stand alone as fresh & thoughtful. The food itself is well-balanced, highlighting the fresh local ingredients that make Sant Esteve (Catalonia) so special. The service is so very enjoyable. You are here to dine, and "hurry" is the last thing you will do. A meal is an event, it is community, it is your time and they enable that. I can say I WILL RETURN & I hope to see you there...
