They did bus the tables to seat people with a noticeable quickness. They have a rotating daily menu that changes the specials each day. We ended up here 3x and each time had different foods. Some evenings we enjoyed make the others so it'll depend on what menu items you get each day. Food came quick, service was prompt, and prices were more than reasonable.

As an international traveling food critic and unbeknownst to the staff, the following is what I…read moreexperienced: - The host seated us next to a table of three self-absorbed, loud and obnoxiously nonstop talking late teens early twenties girls. - The food bus'ers attempted to deliver the wrong order to our and nearby tables five times. - The 1/2 order (three small slivers) tomato soaked bread (1/2 PA AMB TOMAQUET) was certainly not worth the €2.5! - The Greek Salad (ENS GREGA) was the worst example of such we have ever had (my party included an authentic Greek). The feta cheese was absolutely disgusting, it tasted like imitation rubber cheese. - The "Al Ajillo" Style Shrimps (GAMBES AMB ALLADA) had a very strange flavor within it, which overwhelmed the garlic flavors. - The Beef Tenderloin (FILET VEDELLA), she had to spit 1/4 of it out because it was too tough. - Everything was overpriced there for the value. If you are in the area DO NOT waste your time nor money dining here!!!

Recomiendo mucho este restaurante por varios motivos: el primero; porque hacia mucho tiempo que no comía con tanto gusto un producto del cual el cocinero(a), la maitre y los camareros estaban tan orgullosos; porqué al principio pensé que me estaban haciendo la pelota (siempre sospechando que nos venden algo, eh?) hasta que me trajeron los platos que nos zampamos mi marido y yo. No estaba segura de querer reconciliarme con el cerdo; tantas leyendas urbanas!!! pero ayer, con el restaurante petardo de gente (es lo que tiene La Mercè) y con la energía del servicio, dedicaron tiempo para contarme a mi, que soy una doña nadie, que estaba pidiendo exactamente y de dónde venia cada plato, carne, embutido o verdura que teníamos sobre la mesa. Los cerdos de un lugar llamado Sagàs de la familia del Chef (Rovira), que hasta les ponen nombres a los cerdos! ;) los embutidos Catalanes, Italianos, el queso Inglés Stilton, y los tomateeeeeeeeeees!!! Tienen un huerto de donde traen las verduras y las lechugas, etc. Lo mas maravilloso es que luego me di cuenta que no era yo sola, la importante, sino que podéis preguntar a cualquier camarero, o a la cocinera - si no tiene el cuerpo medio metido en el horno de leña (que calor!!!) que os lo expliquen todo todo. Para los que somos unos frikis de las procedencias, de lo orgánico, de la cultura y el trato digno al animal; podemos ir a comer a PORK sin peros!!!!! vaya reconciliación con el cerdo la mía. Recomiendo probar cualquiera de los platos que sacan del horno de leña. read more

I highly recommend this one. Not only they dignify pork in general by presenting us with the best meat, the best cuts and the best quality organic-grown farm animals, but also their beer is amazing. The staff told me it is an artisanal bitter (I didn't know much about beers besides Guinness, of course!, now I'm starting to get interested in the Ales...) brewed specially to match cured meat and freshly grilled or cooked pork meat. This guys even grow their own green garden so all the veggies and amazing tomatoes are fresh from their plot! Indeed, I am grateful to be touring the world to find places like this one, where you eat a decent cut and learn about a meat so popular and cherished all over Europe... read more

We ordered several dishes and as each one was brought to the table it was evident from plating and scent alone that we were going to be satisfied. Satisfied is not generally what I strive for when dining out on vacation. I want to be transported to the culture and flavor profiles through food. Dinner here was incredible from the attentive but non pretentious service to the sheer quality and preparation of the food. A great date night spot while visiting Barcelona! They prepare your steak how you ask for it and serve it by portions of 100grams. You order the weight you want. Yes, it was very nice to meat you we also ordered the stuffed potato, gnocci, fried provolone and croquette. All solid choices and would absolutely order again.
