Ended up ordering the hot chocolate, it was perfectly-made, thick, real "A la Taza" hot chocolate; not that watery depressing stuff many places serve. Service is really friendly and customer focused. The place has a warm decoration and a very nice atmosphere. 4 stars for decoration, service, atmosphere, prices and a very good cup of proper hot chocolate. Would definitely return and upgrade their rating if the food delivers the same quality. Try it!

If you're looking for a restaurant that really wows... this is your place in Barcelona!…read more The food here is a far cry from the standard Barcelona tapas restaurant menu -- which is certainly delicious, but can get a bit repetitive after awhile. The menu at Acces is creative, imaginative... and the flavors are fantastic! We started our gustatory journey with the inventive (and super delicious) roast beef with mustard ice cream and the warm and wonderful comté cheese and onion soup (which the chef split for us, so we could both enjoy it). I then followed with the lamb shoulder entrée, while my partner enjoyed the suckling pig. Both main courses were suggested by Fabien, the owner, and he did not steer us wrong. Simply divine. For dessert, the passion fruit cream, with peppermint and coconut foam capped our evening splendidly. I cannot say enough good things about Acces. The decor is sumptuous, but in a way that doesn't overpower the food or make you feel like you're stuck in a stage set. The restaurant was completely full the entire time we were there, but the dining room is set up nicely, so you don't feel like you're dining on top of the people at the next table. Finally, I must thank Fabien again for fitting us in on a very busy Saturday night, given that we showed up -- like rubes -- without making a reservation. He and his staff could not have been nicer or more professional and accommodating, considering the last-minute request for a table. We were so fortunate there was a cancellation and the stars aligned for us. We will be back -- but next time, will call ahead!

So was in Barcelona for a few nights and we had one day that was stacked for foodie moments which I…read moredubbed "Michelin Day" since we were hitting up tickets and disfrutar. I wanted to have a "low key" dinner prior to the feasting beginning so did a quick search to find Acces as a solid reviewed joint with a great tasting menu deal as well. I made a reservation via their website and we made our way over right on time. The joint itself has a funky interior vibe to it where it balances a modern feel with some "funky" vibe to it with strong color accents and hanging bulbs. They also have an open kitchen type style which is blocked off by a glass wall so that you can see the preparation of the food happening. The servers were all extremely friendly at the restaurant and spent time joking with us as well which I appreciated and immediately put us at ease. The menu is comprised of starters, fish, meat, rice & pasta, and various side dishes. As mentioned the team here offers a tasting menu which provides an amouse bouche, four courses and two desserts which definitely is the best "Bang for the buck". We asked the waiter and they said the menu highlights all the crowd pleasers so given the price point of just 55 euros and the amount of food, it was a no brainer to go with this. The drink menu is well stocked and they have mcallan on hand which is where I spent most of my liquid calories on. The food comes out at a good clip and it started with a potato with truffle oil amouse bouche which was light and delicious without the truffle being overpowering. The next dish that came out was the Roast Beef with mustard ice cream which on the surface seemed quite strange but this dish was the highlight of the night for creativity and taste. The mustard ice cream was not overpowering and paired well with the healthy portion of roast beef. The next dish out was scallops over a bed of potato. Each scallop was prepared well and not overcooked to reach a "rubbery texture" so it was well appreciated. The next dish was a delicate piece of fish in a broth like texture. I thought this was good but tasted a bit off to me. The fish was cooked well but the stew itself did not seem like a great pairing so probably my least favorite dish. The next dish out was the suckling pig with an apple puree which was quite tasty and cooked well although I imagine it would be hard to screw this dish up. The skin was crispy and the meat cooked well with a good fattiness to the meat. After this, the two desserts were brought out both which were good but not quite memorable with the chocolate dish being a bit too rich for my taste. After wrapping up they brought the check over and this is a total nitpick but I was surprised to hear them ask for additional tip. It was not asked in a malicious or evil way and I was aware that tipping a bit at "nicer restaurants" is the norm but found it odd for them asking for a tip whereas disfrutar and tickets did no such thing. Just a minor nitpick but something to be cognizant of. With all this said, a solid place for a meal and a solid meal for the pricing of it. Definitely worth a visit if you are looking for something that is in the middle of fancy and casual with good food.
