    Ok if your a fan of eggs benny this is a "must stop to try"…read more A friend of mine told me this was also a Michelin restaurant so you know I had to try this spot out! Small little intimate resto located near the pasa de gracia strip. They are clean and service is attentive! What we ordered from the menu. Must try the fresh orange juice! It totally adds the umph to your breaky. I had French onion soup it was awesome too! I was feeling a little sick but that didn't stop me from eating the eggs benny Please keep note the Benny's do not come with anything besides just two eggs. There are no hash browns that comes with it. So if your hunger level is a 10 do look at the menu for more. I loved it so much I came the next day

    Very cute place (and waitress as well). Unfortunately, if you can't get by with a non-English…read morespeaking establishment, this won't be your place. I got by speaking English with aggressive hand language (pointing at the menu really and making shapes in the air). They have an English menu, not to worry, so you can simply smile and point. The cafe had a very french bistro atmosphere to it - very cute and quaint. The place filled up quickly, and at one point there was only one waitress (so expect slower service). However, as many of the patrons seemed to be locals, I think they didn't require fast service as they were pleasantly chatting away. I, on the other hand, had to go up to the waitress when she was making coffee in order to get my check (which is fine to do if you're in a hurry!) The food was fair - the soup, which was the soup of the day so unfortunately to me is unidentifiable, was sweet and creamy. Very similar to tomato bisque with some chives on top. The app I ordered, tuna belly salad, was okay - the tuna was pre-cooked as it was cold. The entree, salmon with asparagus, was very good as well. Definitely worth a venture, as this shop is fairly close to the popular high-end shopping street, Passeig de Gracia, so it's convenient to go to after a hard days worth of spending money.

    Maestro is probably a 3.5 for me overall. We stopped here because our planned destination had a…read morelong wait, and Maestro had good ratings. This is a great place to come with a group - the interior is large, bustling and a little noisy. They brew their own beer and it's available in several sizes or in flights. I opted for wine because I'm always bringing wine to a beer fight but the men had a pitcher of beer and were good with it. Maestro has a larger menu so most people will be able to find something they like. They also do lots of combos - liked a mixed meat and cheese board or an assortment of montaditos. That let's you try a bunch of different things for a reasonable price, and it's great for sharing as we found out. I liked our bites assortment for sure but nothing stood out as "amazing". It's a different story on their flammekuche - we opted for the traditional ham and onion and liked it so well we ordered another. Good for groups, good for casual bites, good for variety, great for flammekuche.

    This was a great find after viewing Gaudi buildings and walking along Catalunya.

When I took a look inside the place was loaded with tanks. Cool looking restaurant. We tasted a beer flight and then ordered a pint of one of the beers we tasted. We had a few tapas of course including a bacala cerviche and fried calamari's. Nice place to visit on a hot day and have a few beers.

    Amazing! Dining here…read moreis like tasting a painting - or eating a piece of music. It doesn't offer the cozy aroma of an Abuelas Spanish kitchen, but visually every dish is stunning.

    Be aware: Do NOT waste your money at this restaurant if you are Asians!!!…read more We dined at Disfrutar with high expectations given its 3 Michelin stars, but unfortunately, our experience was extremely disappointing. We were the second party to check in yesterday. However, when several hosts came out, they escorted multiple European groups who arrived after us into the restaurant first, while leaving our party waiting. As an Asian family visiting from the United States, this made us feel uncomfortable and raised concerns about whether we were being treated differently. The situation became even more concerning during the meal. My daughter was holding a glass of orange juice when the glass suddenly broke in her hand and cut her left thumb. A staff member came to clean the table and clearly saw her bleeding finger, yet there was no apology, no concern, and not even a simple "Are you okay?" This lack of basic care and empathy was shocking. At a Michelin 3-star level, service should be attentive, respectful, and consistent for every guest. Unfortunately, our experience made us feel overlooked and unwelcome. At this level, service is not optional--it is a fundamental part of the experience. Being made to feel overlooked and unwelcome, combined with the lack of care in a situation involving a child's injury, made this an experience we cannot recommend. To be fair, the cuisine itself was exceptional--creativity, presentation, wine quality, and overall execution were all at a very high level (close to 10/10). The taste was strong (around 8/10). However, the customer service was extremely poor (1/10), and unfortunately, that overshadowed the entire experience. We hope the restaurant takes this feedback seriously and reflects on how all guests are treated. There are many choices when it comes to fine dining, and service matters just as much as the food.
