BEST TAPAS IN BARCELONA!!!! Love it so much, I recommend the hummus, olives, and potatoes. Also make sure you get a coffee after your meal, it is amazing. The service is good too, they are super nice and fast! The restaurant is kinda small but it has a little cute vibe to it! read more

I would have given 5 stars. The food was delicious and the ambiance was cozy and relaxed. The problem I encountered is that the pork I ordered was served to me undercooked-- the inside was absolutely raw. They offered to cook it more, which I accepted, but there was no apology or any acknowledgment. Being served raw pork is a big no no. I was disappointed in the lack of accountability. Other than that I enjoyed my meal. read more

What a great place in Barcelona! The food was delicious! The service was above average! I had their ravioli as a starter (I wish it was a big dish haha). BBQ dish and also pork meat with chocolate sauce (not sure). Both also delicious. The BBQ meat could come with less fat tho. Dessert was good as well. We paid a combo price including starter, dish and dessert or drink. Very good deal! read more

Can Treso is located on the corner of Asturies and Travessia de Sant Antoni in Gracia. It is a great spot for coffee and conversation and its tables are always full. The success of this restaurant is because of the people who work there. Always pleasant, ready to help, and good humored and amazing chef! The other reason they are a success is their divine food. We go for their menu del dia as often as we can. I had a cherry and avocado salad (scrumptious) as the starter. My husband had a butternut squash omelet with romesco sauce (to die for). My second was hake with a caviar dressing decorated with shavings of fennel -- divinely crisp skin on the hake and the sauce -- creamy goodness but very, very light. My husband had the young squid with new peas. The squid melted in your mouth. To finish it off - Carrot cake (but not American style) a small square with a caramel like topping and a drizzle of mango. Just the right accent to this perfectly sweet dessert. We would have had their coffee, which is the best -- but our siesta awaited us! Oh and they have their menu in 4 languages to help the out of town guests without using a translation app -- always a plus. Can't wait to go again. read more

Great food at great price! This place is located near my hostal so I decided to check it out when I first arrived, then returned once again right before I leave. The staff members speak some English and were helpful. The croquette, tempura, and the foie are great starters. They also have cheese and ham plates. The baccalau is always good as an entree. It is just off the Fontana station on L3 line. Exit the station, turn left from Carrer d'Asturies and there it is. read more

I experienced something here that I will never forget. First of all, all the menus are in Spanish so be prepared to have an interpreter with you or your smart phone. Second of all, don't come starving. There is only one (2 if you're lucky or stay late enough) host/bartender/waiter/cashier (I mean that as in one person filling all the roles). Third, you MUST, I repeat, MUST order the pork. I forget the name in Spanish but it's basically raw pork with the outside seared. For the past 2x years, I've been eating sh*t pork and will be for the next 40 years or so . I could not believe my mouth, these pork had the texture of raw tuna with none of the porky stench/taste. It melts in your mouth and is not frustratingly chewy. I will never look at pork the same way again nor will I ever order it, except in Barcelona. Everything else on the menu are pretty good, maybe a little greasy but very tasty (I can't remember the names of the dishes since they're in Spanish). Good drinks. The foie gras with fries and egg on top was delicious, a little greasy, but hits the spot. Also very delicious cured ham. I would definitely recommend paying this place a visit if you're ever in Barcelona. read more

First international review, totes excited! Finally, a non-tourist trap restaurant. Love love love this place and it is conveniently located next to the metro stop! Cute restaurant in a neighborhood pocket of good eats! This is my third stop in Spain (Madrid, Valencia, Barcelona). Randomly located near my hotel, I found this place through the good fortune of yelp. Although there were no food pictures (I just added some) and all the reviews were in Spanish, my boo and I decided to give can treso a shot. After trying restaurants off of trip advisor and being disappointed, I was very skeptical, but pleasantly surprised. Here's what we had (everything is pictured): Spinach salad: half art, half heaven. A bed of spinach/arugula/other greens topped with some type of ham with Parmesan shavings. Perfectly dressed and the cured meat was thin and yummy. Fish croquette: I had croquettes in Madrid and the inside tasted like mush so it was amazing to taste the fresh fish inside of the crispy batter. Pesto pasta: I love how light and flavorful this pasta was. Simple and topped with Parmesan shavings complimented this dish. Pear tart: the pear tart was accompanied with a shot of milk. At first I tried the tart and it was decent but nothing special, then my boyfriend poured it over the tart, what a game changer. Not overly sweet, warm, and a perfect way to top off the meal. The entire meal +3 beers = €26, very reasonable! Local fresh ingredients and one chef with a limited menu makes this place simple but unforgettable. Our server was also super nice and spoke English. read more

I was wandering through Gracia with my girlfriend and stumbled across this gem. The staff was super chill and we hung out here during a rain storm which was great cuz we got to sample the awesome tapas. Fantastic jamon, tortillas, and croquettes. Awesome wine too. All in all a place with great food and ambience that we were lucky to find. read more

Decent plates come out of this kitchen. Definitely not worth writing home about. We tasted the cream of split pea and mint soup, pork-cheek "tacos" (really more like a regular flour tortilla quesadilla than a taco), and a baby squid dish with beans and black sausage. Plates were small for Spanish lunch and all the flavors were hearty, not very well balanced with lighter notes. Service was brusque and had it not been for the occasional smile I would have thought they didn't appreciate customers in general. read more

We got the set meal for lunch (11 euro a set!), and they have English menus. Comes with a dessert. Everything is plated beautifully and the food was great, especially the main courses. We got the cod, chicken filet, and octopus. read more

Cozy atmosphere, decent food but nothing out of the ordinary. Rather limited selection. Friendly staff. Would recommend lunch rather then dinner. read more

I was a bit unsure to try to dine alone here as this was a small, seemingly very "neighborhood" restaurant full of locals and I'd not had the chance to Yelp it. But I trusted my gut and wandered in. The waitress was very helpful even with my non existent Catalan/Spanish and her limited English. We smiled, laughed at our inability to understand and she suggested a few tapas. I agreed and was happy! It was late and I just wanted a snack. Had the potatoes - can't tell you what they're called but they're spicy with a creamy sauce on top and heavenly. Had the chicken tempura. Lightly battered, perfectly cooked and the dipping sauce was just right, not to heavy/sweet. Presentation was clean and simple but a treat to the eye. A table over had ordered the spinach with ham that another reviewer had described and I'd wished I had room for it. It looked fresh and yummy. Casual, comfortable and in a great neighborhood. I sat outside at one of the two small tables and drank in the atmosphere. read more

Very nice! Free tap water (for tourist, this is important to us). The food in extremely delicious

We had lunch here around 2pm and were among the first in the place - within in 10 minutes it was packed and we would have had to wait. For $11 euro each we choose from the daily menu (3 courses) (seems to change frequently). - I had Salmon/Avocado tartar (amazing) as the starter, pork ribs over apple puree (simple but very tasty) for the main course, and pear/mint foam for dessert. My wife had watermelon gazpacho, red risotto, and mango mousse (all very good). The price also included a drink (small beer). The portions were well sized and I left fully satisfied with both taste and fullness. As mentioned in other reviews free water and bread (gringos like this!). The service was excellent and I would not hesitate to recommend this place to any of my friends. Be careful - there is a very cute dress shop across the street and if you have to wait the female in your life will have a new outfit. - I feel I got off easy with only one new skirt/dress purchased. read more

Came in at random off the street. Creative dishes, friendly staff, AMAZING price! Could not recommend more highly.

Very disappointed at first Yelp usage. This restaurant noted as "open now" and was closed when we got there. Have selected one star only to submit post. read more
