    I was visiting Barcelona for the weekend and is a good Peruvian. I decided to stop by and try this…read moreplace since Gaston Acurio is one of my favorite chefs! I was able to get a reservation online, which was very helpful so we didn't have to wait when we got there. The place is nice and has a lot of seating. There are multiple proving decorations based on the coast area, which makes it feel like a restaurant in Lima. We ordered the ceviche, causa acevichada, lomo saltado, ají de gallina, and cau cau de mariscos (our waiter told us the cau cau would be picante de mariscos, which wasn't true so that was a bit disappointing). The ceviche was incredible! Very fresh and true to the original limeña recipe. The causa acevichada is what took the crown!!! The causa was the most delicious one I've ever had, and the acevichado sauce was just like back in Lima. The cau cau was okay, nothing out of this world. The ají wasn't great, which was unfortunate as I have tried ají de gallina at other Acurio restaurants and they were so much better. The lomo saltado was spectacular. The sauce was perfect and the meat was cooked just as it should be. The potatoes were outstanding! I also got a chilcano de maracuyá which was very good. Overall, I'd definitely recommend coming here when in Barcelona. Please do try the causa acevichada and lomo saltado - you will not be disappointed!

    Incredible service and incredible food. My friends took me here for a birthday lunch and we were…read moreabsolutely blown away by the quality of the food. We were craving some good Peruvian so we opted for this tiradito, ceviche, causa, and arroz con pato and it was worth it. As an aperitivo, they brought out crunchy corn (choclo) and a pretty spicy salsa (that we ended up asking for more of). All of the sauces that came with the food... we could have bathed in them. We chose to try the ceviche combinado (seasonal fish, fried fish, choclo, sweet potato, and yellow chili leche de tigre. Our tiradito was a ponzu rocoto with red tuna, herring eggs, avocado, smoked mayo, and ponzu. Causa is a peruvian specialty, with layers of mashed potato with either chicken or fish (we got it with tuna)- the causa de tartaré de atún was a red tuna with a garlic sauce. The cocktails (including pisco sours) were great too! Honestly I would have had multiple meals here if I didn't have FOMO about being in Spain and not eating Spanish food. The service was so accommodating. Our server made great recommendations for our food choices, and was happy to move us to a bigger table as more friends joined. They brought out the cake with a birthday candle in it, and it was delightful. A thousand times YES to recommending this, even if you're hesitating about eating something other than Spanish cuisine while visiting. One of the best meals of our trip.
