1. Bar Alleria - Thomas (13 Jan 2022 - 12:10)

   Great place in a quiet neighborhood. Food is innovative without being pretentious; Service friendly and unobtrusive. Bar Alegria has a "feel good" atmosphere! Definitely will be back.

2. good choices! - saml (9 Nov 2021 - 12:44)

   loved Bar Alegria and Vivant so far, not known for the moment.
   great city!

3. Cervecería catalana - Martha Rees (28 May 2018 - 08:04)

   Best tapas I had in Barcelona—anchoas, crab, gambas. Get there before 7 or be prepared for a wait.

4. best of the best - MARY A ULIANA (27 Feb 2018 - 09:42)

   Disfrutar is not only the best restaurant in town, it is also the most fun. I hit it whenever I'm in Barcelona. Love the service too! A great night out always!

6. New Years eve - Gary j (20 Nov 2017 - 08:22)

   Hi
   Need help
   
   Me and my wife want to eat out around rambla or gothic area on New Year's Eve. Ideally somewhere with a little music or entertainment

7. Can Pineda for sure! - #{[ (1 Jan 2017 - 12:16)

   Can Pineda is the best place for us in Barcelona. Far from city centre but only minutes by cab.. really worth it if you want to discover the real catalan foods.

8. Wonderful place! - Randall (20 Nov 2015 - 09:48)

   Last september I travelled to Barcelona with my friends, amazing place. It was a special moment, we finished our university careers so we decided have a lunch on a special restaurant. We found Santa Eulalia Champagne Bar. All meals were delicious and spectacular. We recommend it!

9. Louis Roederer at Santa Eulalia Champagne Bar - Alison (17 Nov 2015 - 09:22)

   Really surprised. A friend of mine showed me a new place called Champagne Bar. He asked for a “Champagne al estilo Santa Eulalia” that included different sweets and a Louis Roederer Brut Premier Champagne glass. I really appreciate it and I sure i´ll repeat.

10. Rating Arola restaurant - Hotel guest (6 Jul 2015 - 08:38)

    Reason we went it was rated #2 and we were staying at the Art Hotel we were highly disappointed, food came out at a different times, part of the order was forgotten drinks were lousy and server spilled as they were served presentation was ok but we expected much better quality service and food for the rating and price.
    WE DO NOT RECOMMENDED TO ANYBODY

11. Yubari Restaurant should be here! - Kim (30 Jun 2015 - 11:14)

    Hi!
    
    I think this list is not real. Why is not Yubari Restaurant? Is the best restaurant in Barcelona, said for famous people like Leo Messi!
    
    Please.. include the Japanese Restaurant for a great and real list.

12. YUBARI - Kate (2 Jun 2015 - 06:12)

    Yubari is the best place for eating newstyle japanese food in Barcelona!!! It´s really great!!

13. the restaurant with view on the sea - Simona (15 May 2015 - 11:10)

    Please give me advice. I´m looking for the some restaurant in Barcelona with the view on the see
    Thanks

14. passadis - navarro (7 Jan 2015 - 10:00)

    Wow, this list must be completely unreliable. Passadis del Pep is very overpriced for the cheapest food imaginable. They are worse than the thousand position on tripadvisor.

15. La Boqueria is the best place ever :) - chef in La Boqueria (9 Dec 2014 - 09:30)

    I love La Boqueria! Can't wait to go back in Barcelona this holiday season. :)

16. Adrian - Gillian (13 Oct 2014 - 10:30)

    Yeah calm down Adrian - don't tar us all with the same brush!!!!!

17. Eat in las Ramblas - Peter (8 Oct 2014 - 10:00)

    The best where to eat in Las Ramblas is the Restaurant of Le Meridien. The name is: CentOnze. (Ramblas, 111). We had a kind of tapas, it was great!!! Cannot miss it! :)

18. Adrian - Raul (18 Aug 2014 - 12:15)

    Calm down Adrian.

19. Restaurants - Adrian (4 Aug 2014 - 09:45)

    I really get tired of all these stupid English writing senseless comments. You don't recommend pizza or canneloni when writing about spanish cuisine stupid! Not once was the wine list mentioned so a clear indication mlst of you don't know what the hell they are talking about. Dos Pallilos came up on a couple of other sites as well as some other restaurants not mentioned once by our "connaisseurs".
    Uk I love you but stick to sports, cider ande beer and don't fool yourself about knowledge of food. Not as long as you still get a steak ordered rare on your plate and it's well done!

20. Restaurantes de PRIMERA - Jose Escudero (4 Aug 2014 - 09:30)

    Mejores lugares para disfrutar de la gastronomía de Barcelona…no la hay. Estos son de verdad los más auténticos y sabrosos lugares para saborear del sabor típico de la región. ¡¡¡Los espero allí para que saboreen conmigo!!!!...José Escudero (Puerto Rico)

21. Barcelona Best City of the world - Paul (28 Jul 2014 - 10:00)

    Barcelona is certainly my favourite city to live ... I lived there for one year and that was one of the best year of my life....Barcelona for ever!

22. any idea? - sam (27 May 2014 - 09:45)

    heard about La Esquinica tapas bar? Any comments? thank you

23. looks good - sally (12 May 2014 - 10:30)

    Good listing. Will try most as I can.

24. Best restaurant in Barcelona - Robert Ricci (5 Feb 2014 - 09:45)

    I've been to lots and lots of restaurants but seriously nothing comes close to this one, quality and service and unique traditional cuisine with open kitchen. Loved it and one of my highlights of Barcelona.

25. Expensive but well worth emptying your pockets - Pere Chias C (20 Jan 2014 - 16:37)

    If you are a complete foodie and you're in BCN you should definitely try out the next restaurants though I have to admit they are expensive but they're worth the effort: Sense presa, La fonda del gaig, paco meralgo, fermin piug, coure, bravo. Except for Paco Meralgo, these are not tapa restaurants but you'll cry with delight when you taste their food, all of those restaurants have an excellent service, high cleanliness and the food is purely sinful, it's so delicious.
    
    For something more economical but also nice and very in fashion amongst tourists there is La Cerveceria Catalana.
    
    Cheers hope you enjoy ;)

26. Good restaurants in Barcelona - Inger Norås, Stavanger, Norway (16 Dec 2013 - 10:15)

    A hidden gem in Barcelona is "Meson Jesus" in Barri Gotic. This is not a fancy, expencive restaurant, but a cozy, kind of "homefeeling" place, a family-run place which have very good food and fantastic atmosphere. "Meson David" in El Raval is also a restaurant I would recommend, cheap and very nice food. The tapas bar "La Plata" is also an amazing little place with the best sardines I have ever tasted! I have also been to "Los Caracoles" (I see many people recommend this restaurant), but I was not very satisfied with the food, but this was in 2007, and since I will soon go to Barcelona again, maybe I should give it another try.

27. I love this city! - Mike (2 Dec 2013 - 08:45)

    Wow, I was last week in Barcelona and I loved the restaurants of this city, specially Divinus restaurant! )

28. Love food - foody (19 Nov 2013 - 12:30)

    love food and was suprised by the quality of the restaurants in Barcelona as well as the quality of the hotels. Great city for vacations. Of course Dos Palillos was my first stop. Great food, nice table and very nice people. A true must!

29. went to Can Vallès .. great - vincent (18 Nov 2013 - 14:30)

    Can Vallès is really the perfect and true catalan restaurant.. only market and quality food. A pleasure.

30. Great Restaurant - Brian Macias (10 Oct 2013 - 09:00)

    I HIGHLY recommend Ciudad Condal/Ciutat Condad just up the way from La Rambla! Yeah we had to wait to get a table, but the service and the food was outstanding! I went there with students in March 2012 and took my wife in June 2013. We loved it!!!

31. cHILD FRIENDLY RESTRURANTS in Barcelona - Albet (2 Oct 2013 - 09:15)

    We are going to be in Barcelona from Oct 9th through the 12th, with our children and 3 grandchildren, ages 3,5 and 7. Please recommend a family friendly resterurant

32. authentic rice dishes - yasho (30 Sep 2013 - 09:00)

    If what you are looking for is an authentic rice dish (paella variations), home-made (and made on the spot and from scratch), different every day of the week, go to La Barraqueta, Tordera Street 28 in Gràcia. The price? 7,5 euros per person. Seeing is believing. While you are at it you'd well asking for a couple of tapas (or starters) while you wait, such as grilled calamari or a lovely mushroom sauté. Plenty of good, resonable wines to choose from. Lovely square and surroundings even if the restaurant itself is not at all pretentious.

33. Advise - gerard (3 Sep 2013 - 09:00)

    You must go to La Viblia Wine Restaurant & Showroom. They've got a beautiful terrace in a very special place!! It is located in the W Hotel but in the viewpoint side!! try the tapas and the paella! They are so nice! and their cocktails!
    
    It's one of my fav places in the city.

34. Any advice - Dune (19 Aug 2013 - 10:00)

    I will be in Barcelona on the 30th-1st of Aug. I'm looking for a good local cusine restaurant that is not over-priced. Somewhere locals go.

35. Best Restaurant - Lexie (9 Jul 2013 - 09:15)

    One of the best is L'Oliana Restaurant, we went there to have dinner and ended up going back for lunch the very last day, the best Cannelloni and Cod fritters I've ever tried.

36. Mediterranian food - Clarince (3 Jul 2013 - 06:45)

    Barcelona is one of the best cities in the world, my passion is travelling around the world, that's my hobby, and I want to say that the restaurants are pretty cool, I was in Divinus with a really good Price, and I went to diner at Tenorio, both ones differents but so good.

37. Italian good food in Barcelona - Raphael (7 Jun 2013 - 09:45)

    I use to go at Bimbas restaurant, is one of the best I tried in Barcelona and have an excelent client service. I was really surprised, and in addition has a beautiful cocktel area. :)

38. WOW Trobador Rambla! - Charles (24 May 2013 - 10:15)

    Hi, I was with mi wife in Barcelona last week and we decided to go to Parc Güell.
    
    After this, we went to Catalunya Square and web ate at Trobador Restaurant, a really good place to go.
    
    We get so fun on this Trip, Barcelona is beautiful.

39. Tenorio in the TOP10 - Richard (8 May 2013 - 08:30)

    I live in Barcelona for 10 years, and one of the best restaurants I've been is Tenorio, the service, food and place are really cool, sure that has to be on the list !
    
    

40. La Tramoia Restaurant - Chris (11 Apr 2013 - 07:15)

    We went to Barcelona for Easter Holidays and we found La Tramoia in Rambla Catalunya. The food is really good and you can chose to eat brasserie or tapas. It has a terrace and the local it's really cool! All my family really enjoyed the restaurant and we recommend it.

41. Somosrrostro in Barcelonneta - Judy Kugle (25 Mar 2013 - 08:15)

    Go as many times as you can. Of all the places to eat in Barcelona (I spent 5 weeks there). It remains my favorite food memory. Both Boqueria ans Santa Caterina markets should not be missed.

42. Restaurante Quixote - manuel (7 Mar 2013 - 18:30)

    Gran sorpresa en la calle consell de cent 314, nos gusto mucho. Gran comida, muy buen trato y servicio correcto.
    Os lo recomiendo

43. El ATN un descubrimiento fantástico - Elsa Robert (6 Mar 2013 - 15:15)

    El ATN, el mejor no, pero sí muy muy bueno. Lo descubrimos por casualidad. Uno de aquellos tesoros que no te imaginas que están en el centro esperándote. Muy buena comida (cocina del país con toques de autor), muy buen trato y servicio, precios equilibrados, local agradable, decoración cuidada, supercéntrico, al lado de la rambla, en la plaza Vila Madrid... Y habíamos pasado veces por allí, y sin fijarnos. Un restaurante que seguro merece la pena.

44. UN 10 !! AL RESTAURANTE ANONIM - Patricia (8 Feb 2013 - 09:00)

    La semana pasada vi el restaurante anonim en un reportaje (precioso por cierto) redactado por Pau Arenos, que la verdad nunca me defrauda. Investigué un poco del restaurante por internet y los comentarios en general eran bastante positivos y el sabado nos fuimos a probarlo, y fue increible !! Un restaurante muy sencillo en el que se come muy muy bien !!! Una atencion rapida y diligente, economico, delicioso todo de principio a fin, una carta sencilla, corta y bien hecha. Para que mas ? Senti que era una cocina bastante honesta. Los propietarios vienen de Hofmann y es evidente su calidad. Hay que probar los langostinos, la mousse de foie con albaricoque, el milhojas de patatas, el atun, y el flan de mato que es increible.
    Gracias a Pau Arenos por descubrirnos restaurantes como este, y gracias al restaurante anonim. Volveremos.
    Patricia (Barcelona)

45. la biblioteca gourmande restaurant / raval - Ivcar (7 Feb 2013 - 09:00)

    Nos encanto el estilo que tiene. La comida es genial, especialmente los buñuelos de bacalao. Ademas es un local muy bonito y diferente. El personal nos trato perfectamente en todo momento. Cuando volvamos a Barcelona repetiremos seguro!

46. Cachitos the best - Alfredo parmigiano (2 Feb 2013 - 09:00)

    Cachitos is by far the best restaurant i have ever been in barcelona

47. Dos Palillos - jim (30 Jan 2013 - 01:00)

    Dos Palillos is in my top ten for sure. I would add one in Boqueria but I don't remenber the name. next time then

48. travel - unknown (26 Jan 2013 - 11:30)

    alva is awasome

49. Mordisco - KNBM (19 Jan 2013 - 10:00)

    The restaurant Mordisco is simply wonderful.It is not cheap but very good.I recommend!!!!

50. Es imposible sacar una lista de 10! - CRAM (19 Nov 2012 - 08:15)

    
    Me parece muy dificil sacar una lista de sólo 10 restaurantes. Por ejemplo, esta semana hemos estado Dias DeNorte, que es la antigua Moritz, pero la de abajo en Sant Pau, la de toda la vida...; y hemos cenado comido increíble... Hay muchos sitios que de verdad son muy buenos, y que están por conocer... Muy recomendable...!
