An Absolute Masterclass in Uruguayan Parrilla! If you are in…read moreBarcelona and craving an authentic, top-tier meat experience, this place delivers an absolute masterclass in flavor and hospitality. Our party of 5 was completely blown away by a flawless meal that started with a tender, beautifully tangy lengua a la vinagretaand a perfectly crisp, refreshing salad. The milanesa a la napolitana was golden and done perfectly, the parrillada was fantastic, and the Uruguayan bife de vacío among the best we've had. The entrecot was exceptionally juicy, packed with rich, deep flavor. Just when we thought the experience couldn't get any better, the desserts arrived - pancakes, ice cream, coffee - all great. , Staff was warm, attentive, and efficient. The fantastic vibe is also mentionable. Such an amazing surprise!

Paella was large and great but the meat texture was dry and chalky (not the seafood but the pork meat) contradicted the moist and chewiness of the rice and the seafood - we also found some bone fragments in the meat.

We went in the evening just as they were lighting the candles. The menu is extensive. My only nitpick is that I wish there were more vegetable options - even if it's just side dishes... We ordered the oxtail bon bons and the grilled octopus. Both were 10/10. We were not even that hungry and still cleared every plate. Service was excellent. We were taken care of by Jofre and Lola, who were total sweethearts. Desserts looked great but we skipped. Would absolutely come back!!!!

This place is great for tourists because they have a dinner set of all their popular tapas. We ordered their "deluxe" dinner for 18 euros a person.

Although I don't have allergies I have many friends who do and find it hard to dine out while still enjoying something authentic. Gut was perfect on our trip because everything felt healthy and refreshing but also unique and exciting which was exactly what we were looking for! We split the felafel, chicken curry, and beef dish and everything was incredible. Felafel was probably my favorite though! They had really good wine, Aperol spritz, and we split the brownie with ice cream. I loved everything. And I can't say enough good things about the service. Our servers were so kind to us and helpful and it made the whole experience so enjoyable. The restaurant is small but feels elevated and local in a non-touristy area. Truly would come back here if I am ever in Barcelona again!

The service warmed up signficantly after we ordered, as is the case with a lot of places in Barcelona. Del dia runs about 14 euros or 10 for the rapido (1 course plus dessert and a drink; neither includes a coffee). The atmosphere is shabby posh, and the walls were a color of yellow-greige that reminded myself and my dining companion of our trip to Budapest. Rough, repainted walls mixed with some new elements and some used chairs and this and that here and there. The food was delicious and beautiful. I had leek soup, pomegranate molasses roasted chicken leg with bulgar wheat and honey reduction (?), and a delicious local-style mini cake with a raspberry in the center and chocolate sauce. Portion size was generous, and my only complaint is that the red wine I ordered had clearly been open too long, maybe only the day before but it didn't sit well with the air, so it wasn't as pleasant as it could have been.

Open only for lunch (12-4 pm) with just a handful of tables, it's clearly a beloved neighborhood spot. We waited patiently in a short queue as tables turned over and quickly noticed that most of the guests were locals catching up over their midday meal. Once seated, we were presented with the day's menu, handwritten in Catalan on a chalkboard. The place seems to be family owned and they were very friendly. The empanadillas de atún (tuna) were outstanding, and the mussels were just as impressive. For our main course, we had the dorado -- pan seared and full of flavor. The food and atmosphere were so memorable that when we returned to Barcelona after our cruise, we made sure to dine there again!
