Great quality food on the menu deal dia...meats are especially good here. Gets a bit tough to find a table after 1:30 and service can be a bit overwhelmed, but the reason is...it's good!
Those patatas are sensational! Wow. Also a huge selection of quality wines by the glass. A great place to start the evening in this neighborhood.
Probably the best views over Girona (perfect for sunset) and an entrance to the walls.
Made our Christmas Eve perfect--a well-thought-out menu of classic dishes prepared to perfection, with just a hint of contemporary twist.
We stumbled upon Casa Marieta like an oasis in a desert of closed restaurants on Christmas Day and found it bustling with locals, warm service, and Catalan food prepared with heart and soul!
Beautiful setting, cozy, comfortable rooms, and warm family charm -- why stay anywhere else?
Surprisingly wide selection of designer eyeglasses (better than the Raval location actually) and such excellent, friendly service (even in English!).
Great burgers with a huge array of options -- perfect for dinner after the cinema across the street.
10.50 for menu del día lunch, and includes not just a glass but a carafe (2 glasses) of wine! Surprisingly good value for such a prime area.
Avocado toast! Seems so simple yet done so right. The cold quinoa coconut "porridge" is a very interesting healthy option, and all the baked eggs dishes are decadent. Service has always been friendly!
A bit less selection than La Tasqueta down the road, but bigger portions. You can't lose with either!
Bus V17 will take you almost all the way up (last stop), leaving just a short (5-min) walk up to the summit. You can then wander back down on the trails to the metro at Alfons X.
A gem--run by a very kind and attentive family, including grandma and grandpa, just offering a great selection of wines, cavas, vermouths by the glass and some simple but quality bites.
Stick to the pizzas--excellent, wood-fired, and probably the best in the neighborhood. The espaldas and other grilled meats are tempting and draw crowds but were disappointing.
Skip the lines and buy your ticket from the (cash-only) automatic machines to the left. Possibly the most beautiful religious building I've visited.
What a gem of a place! Beautiful little garden courtyard and excellent food--the berenjenas here are perfect. Lovely staff couldn't have been more friendly and accommodating, even despite the crowd.
Great wood-fired pizzas in a neighborhood tucked away from the tourist masses. The pata negra and calzone are pizza perfection! Nice craft beers and selection of wines by the glass to accompany
Don't really understand what all the complaining is about...a rather stunning contemporary showpiece that livened up a dead area. Views from the top are terrific.
Moroccan baked eggs are amazing! Love the Bloody Mary menu and as a bonus, the coffee is also great. A Sunday must!
Great selection of Lebanese stuffed breads (special spinach and chicken bread are awesome, as is the tomato/cheese). Bonus: they'll deliver!
