The food is extremely refined and included in the Menu there are about 10 dishes. The decor of the restaurant may not be to every-bodies tastes (a sort of refined medieval style maybe (I'm not an expert), everything is clean, high class and elegant. The service is also excellent. PS although the postal address is right, the location on the little map is wrong: the restaurant is not in Avinyonet de Puigventós, but a little further on the main road near a village/housing estate called EL MAS PAU, You take the first left then left strait away...You can see a tall Square tower from the road as you drive toward it.

It turns out to be one of the best and most creative reaturants I have tried in Spain-- with a reasonable price.

Suggestion: try Gourmet menu (59 euros for the whole meal)!

My favourite type of…read morerestaurant is one that gets you to love things that you typically hate-- and this place did that wonderfully! If you're looking for an eclectic, experimental, molecular gastronomy type meal, this is the place for you. The coordinates restaurant has a very interesting interior, and an even more interesting menu. The surrealist menu is particularly excellent-- they give you a variety of little snacks, as well as non liquid soup and canneloni without pasta. The price of 38 euros (for a six course meal with wine and cava) is really quite excellent. They were also very flexible regarding allergies! My husband couldn't have their rockfish due to allergies and they were happy to substitute it for the kangaroo at no extra charge. Bilingual, attentive staff, and an open kitchen that allows you to watch the chefs work (assuming you have the right table for it!). I recommend making a reservation unless you plan on arriving early. 5 stars because the price and service was perfect; I'm surprised this place isn't on the bib gourmand list!

Aside from warm and friendly service, each dish was presented with a thoughtful, artistic touch. The restaurant itself was petite but the clean lines and laid back vibe evoked a design aesthetic that permeated through decor and dishes. Everything was perfectly cooked. The tenderness of the pork and freshness of the vegetables, fish and seafood spoke volumes of the cooking technique as well as emphasis on local and seasonal ingredients. If I had one knock it would be the paella was slightly too salty, but aside from that, bravo! We didn't have time to try desserts but if we ever come back to Figueres would love to visit this place again.

What a culinary experience! Occi is quite a small restaurant (advanced booking a must) with a…read moresleek modern style that somehow seamlessly incorporates the giant stone walls and pillars of the old Girona building in which it is situated. This unique combo is a bit confusing at first but seems to make perfect sense by the end of the meal (no, there was no wine involved here). The menu consists of dishes that reflect the "modern yet classic" look and feel of the place. Offerings are imaginative and pretty much universally appealing. The thing I liked most about the menu was that it was not simply "twists on a local classic" but instead the chefs used all of the classic local ingredients (and some lesser-seen local produce like rabbit, pigeon and a whole host of local wild mushroom varieties) to create dishes and a style of cuisine that was truly their own. Luckily, we were 5 people so we were able to choose five different starters to share. In order to enjoy each dish and not jumble up all the flavours, our waiter suggested bringing each dish in turn to make a sort of tasting menu. It was a good call as every dish was packed full of its own unique flavour and character that was made somehow all the more enjoyable by tasting it in isolation from the others. Favourites included the taggliatelle with local egg, shrimp and mixed mushrooms, the "arroz de pals" (their delicious take on a risotto) and the rabbit terrine. A word to the wise: the starter portions are LARGE so if you're not hungry or are looking for a lighter meal, you could order less than one per person or even get a few different starters to share between you as a whole meal. Main courses consisted of fish and meat dishes that were just as creative and tasty as the starters. Meat and fish alike were cooked to perfection with accompaniments that complemented and enhanced their wonderful natural flavours. Desserts were light, well presented and as unique and imaginative as previous courses. In conclusion, I would say that Occi offers some incredibly imaginative, tasty and well-executed food made from some of the finest local ingredients and backed up by extremely friendly and helpful service. Dinner was extremely good value for the amount and quality of the food received, coming in at around €40/head for three courses (more with wine, as only one of us had a glass). A definite must-try for anyone, but especially those looking for something a bit different in Girona and the surrounding area. Oh, and if anyone in your party speaks Castellano or Catalan, definitely get a menu in one of those languages as some ingredients and descriptions are lost in translation on the English language menus.

The restaurant is situated in the hotel "Mas Falet" which originally was an ancient castle of the…read moreXVII century. Located in Sant Antoni de Calonge. Totally renovated and full of charm, the building opened its doors to the public a couple of years ago. From the top of the mound where it stands, unveils a beautiful view on the valley, residential neighborhood and Emporda area. When lavender is in blossom here in the garden the smell is just incredible. You can sit inside, but outside patio is so cozy, private and lovely, that you'll definitely will feel comfortable and snug. It's so nice and quiet there, that you forget of the noise and the clutter of the beach cities nearby. Conceptual Mediterranean Cuisine with a personal touch focused on the use of freshest local products. Fish of Palamos and meat from Girona area delivered daily. You can sip wine with local olives enjoying the magic moment of purple time after the sunset. The amuse bouche was the potato mousse with a hint of foie gras, yummy. Whether you start with Jamon Iberico, cheese plate or salad with marinated salmon - it's all good. My personal choice was "Tartar de pato" (duck tartar) which is quite unusual, cause we're used to beef tartar, salmon or tuna. But this one is melting in your mouth and the combination with jamon is a nice touch. Too much of mustard for me, but that was placed separately on the plate, so if you're not a fan of this zest like me, it doesn't influence on the taste of the dish if you don't want it to. Cod fritters are delicate. Lobster stuffed ravioli with saffron sauce were very savory. Cabritio (which is goatling confit) with rosemary honey and potatoes was refined and just perfect. As for dessert - try "Valerie" which is fresh cheesecake with strawberry jam or apple toffee with vanilla ice cream. I have to say here that the carte is so perfectly composed, that you can't help wanting to try most of the dishes and it means that you have to come back for more like they say. There is a couple variations of the menu. Both are ready sets, the Degustation Menu is 55 Euros and Mas Falet Menu is 43 Euros only. All in all, the prices are more than reasonable, considering the quality and exquisite taste. They offer a Kids Menu which is not typical for the place of such approach towards Michelin star restaurant, but it's interesting too and quite diverse. Why not?! It's at the hotel and convenient for some customers. The wine list is not too extensive, there are only four wines out of Spain and that's their conception, some may find that inconvenient, but the impressive fine section consists of wines from the region of Emporda, where, relatively speaking, is located the restaurant. The wine industry in this region has made a big leap forward lately. And following the advice of a very charming sommelier, we chose the wine from the property visible from the restaurant: Clos d'Agon, and were not a bit disappointed. Next time Sommelier promised to get us out of his cellar the stashed bottle of old vintage, so this is one more reason to come back. The service is exceptional; all waiters are charming and helpful. Even if you don't speak Spanish you won't feel uncomfortable or lost. Overall - just adorable experience and a place to come back. Free parking.

Outdoor seating has three tables for two and two tables for four. They seem short-staffed as there were only two staff for the whole restaurant. Not sure if this is typical for the restaurants in the area. It took a long time to get our water and wine - we received them after receiving our appetizer but only after we reminded the staff. We first tried the Baratta salad and oxtail croquettes. Both were very good. The Baratta salad was advertised as coming with walnut pesto, but it looked like they were actually peanuts. It also had dried raisins- the flavor is not like the typical U.S. kinds. The raisins don't have the distinct grape flavor and are more of a mild sweetness. For our main dishes we got the Girona beef steak and the crunchy Kentucky style pork. The Kentucky style pork was better than the Girona beef steak but I still enjoyed the steak. The pork was deep fried perfectly crispy that it was indeed crunchy. It was topped with melted mozzarella cheese and oregano seasoned sliced tomatoes. It came with a mashed potatoes with a ham tasting broth. You get to choose the weight of the steak with a minimum of 200 grams, which was more than enough for me. The steak came with three small sides, including mashed potatoes with a ham tasting broth, what tasted like herb infused mayonnaise, and some kind of hummus. I didn't care for any of the sides. We also enjoyed their Monsant traditional red wine 2020. This was a great restaurant to try for dinner, especially since it was just around the corner from our hotel.
