I think most people going here are missing the point. I'm sure their drinks are good, but this is a…read morerestaurant for serious foodies. It's funny, because before I saw the reviews, I thought the chef was being a punk when he came over and told me and my husband "you may not realize this, but this is a fine dining establishment." Now that I see people are just coming here to get drunk, I see why he told us. The food really is something to write home about. The ingredients are exquisite and the food is extremely beautiful and innovative. We got the tasting menu at lunch (Americanos, LUNCH is the big meal of the day here, not dinner. And you should come for lunch) My husband had a pork dish that he maintains may have been the best thing he has ever eaten. They serve the most beautiful fish I have ever seen. The bluefin tuna literally sparkles. There was a tomato with blue cheese ice cream that was surprisingly delicious. I was going to knock them a star for snobby service and if they start getting better reviews, I might. But if I stick to my credo that this is about the food, they deserve 5 stars. But if the owner reads this, if you have a couple of seemingly stupid Americans who have the sense to come for lunch instead of dinner, don't treat them like idiots. They're probably there because they did their research.

I found this place by chance. After looking for a less touristic barcfor a few days I bumped into…read morethis place. This place reminded me of the Marz bar where I was a regular in NYC a lot in the 90's. The interior decor is mainly kisch and you feel like being on set on a John Waters film. They don't serve cocktails but pussytails. I know, a tourist trap but still all fun. Wifey and I wondered if this was a transvestite bar since it's decorated with pretty gay and pin up collages. You get free snacks when ordering, but we all know that salt make the average customer buy an extra unit. The staff is friendly and prices better than my hotel across the road, Barceló Raval. The place seems to have quite a few friendly regulars and we seemed to fit in immediately. But watch your valuables, a pick pocket dropped in and made a move on Wifey but was chased out by the nice bartender David. I highly enjoyed myself there and will return tonight and try to remember a bit more than last night. Most highly recommended.

Two of us came in around 9:30pm on a Saturday; it was not busy at all. About €14 per drink. * Sex sour - 3.5 stars. A good sour, nice foam, just not super complex or interesting. * Old Parrot - 3 stars. Quite sweet, we could mostly taste the pineapple. Disappointing it wasn't spicy at all with the Chili. * Gin foam drink (we saw photos online and it was from their prior menu but could still make it) - 4 stars. Much more interesting, and this one was spicy! The foam was fun.

Two tables were served before we were and they had multiples servers attending to them. Our waitress was incredibly slow and reluctant to answer questions about the menu. Other tables were fortunate to have a swift and efficient waiter. We were jealous. The lamb was tough and the chicken was dry. Both were not cooked hastily. The nachos while large were in need of queso. Note only the top of the nachos were paired with toppings while the majority at the bottom were naked. Come for drinks if you must and sit at the bar if you expect to receive your order timely. Otherwise you will be held hostage.
