Great concept place with only 5 tables. It was pretty hard to book, during high season, at least 2-3 weeks in advance, but it was definitely worth the wait! Every single dish was delicious! And the customer service is at its best 👌

Super cool place. Javi and his team look after you very well. The food is tasty and interesting and is inspired by the artists who worked in the studios in the past. The wine I had there was organic and very good. There are a lot of stairs and it is a bit dark so not suitable for anyone who gas vision problems or can't manage stairs. I believe there is a lift, but I don't know how reliable it is. It is best to check before you go.

Flavors are so unique that the food melts in your mouth. The beef cheek was incredible. The Décor is simple but sophisticated and the staff there are very kind and friendly and took their time to recommend and advise of the food. The menu is not large which I like very much and the restaurant really focused on a selection of well crafted and prepared dishes. Food is really delicious. At the end of the meal they treated us with plum liquor which was amazing as well. I highly recommend trying this place.

The Food was really good, we ate Pasta w champions and a Salad which was really good too. I found it to be pretty cheap for Barcelona. The waiter was really nice, he took time for us. We were sitting outside it was a bit loud but nothing unusual for such a big city and there is a really nice breeze outside.

It’s mediocre. Let’s start with the place. It’s very elegant design. Nothing super special, buts it’s quite nice. We had 2 servers(kind of - they served like 3, 4 tables at the same time). One guy “Omar”, he was a bit hard to understand and a woman, sorry I forgot her name, but she was amazing. She was very clear when speaking, in contrast to the male waiter. Service was pretty slow. It took 2 hours for lunch, for 6 courses which were 1-2 bites, except the main course which was rice. So we had to wait like 10+ mins between dishes which were a bite away. Food had its good and bad dishes. The squid dish was below average and left a bad aftertaste. Also one of the chocolates for the final meal was also very weird with a fish taste. The best things were one of the butters for the bread(its a bit laughable that that is the best thing) and the main course, but more specifically the mushroom on it. The rest of the dish was just okay. Not mind blowing. Just okay. Some other notes, cherry desert was nice, and also the first starter. After that we had something like a gazpacho, which it was definitely one of the top dishes, but it was so little that u had to scrape it from the plate from the start. This was 120 euro per person. Definitely not worth the price. Also they served coffee and water and they included that in the bill - +10 euro, which is pathetic in my opinion. Its was okay lunch, but definitely don’t recommend and will not return.

We went for the pop-up that “Alapar” restaurant was serving at Blanc. The experience was absolutely amazing. Both chefs from Alapar restaurant were extremely attentive and involved in the dishes they prepared. The mix between mediterranean food and traditional japanese dishes is something that creates unbelievably good pieces such as the Toro Mushipan, that I ended ordering twice. I would definitely pay a visit to the Alapar restaurant, and probably another visit at Blanc whenever they change to a new pop-up!

Excellent! This place was a real find, located right across from our hotel. We dined here on our previous trip to Barcelona and again this time and food and service were consistently excellent. All of the paellas were great but the black squid ink paella was amazing. Try all the tapas, they are delish although our faves were the jamón ibérico, papas, pan con tomate, and the eggplant. The crime brûlée was out of this world. The service is wonderful and our server MIT was excellent. Run don’t walk to this fabulous restaurant in Las Ramblas.

Oh Lolea! Where do I even begin? This place is the cutest hole in the wall restaurant in Barcelona which I had visited with some of my gal pals. We were taken care of very well (thanks to—if I'm remembering her name correctly—Augustina) and tasted the best sangria of our entire trip! This restaurant truly deserves all the hype they get for their sangrias because the Lolea N. 1 was so delicious we ordered a couple of bottles! I especially recommend the truffle risotto—be careful again, you may order more than one from how exceptional it is. Overall, twas a 10/10 dining experience and I highly recommend it!

Came here today for lunch and it didn’t disappoint. Firstly the owners were SO friendly and explained all the dishes in detail. They had a large selection of wines to choose from at reasonable prices. The food was next to none, 10/10. All the ingredients were fresh and the chef clearly loves what he does. We tried 6 or 7 plates and they were all excellent: will be back for sure.

I have had Forbes training and they follow their training to a T! It was excellent. Mauricio and Kjra were our servers and they were outstanding, and other than the food, they are the reason for this review. Thank you for an amazing experience. We will be back.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! If you visit Barcelona, you MUST go here. We didn’t make a booking so we were sat at the bar as they were busy. I am glad we were. The bartender, Alex, was such a vibe. He kept us entertained the whole meal and made AMAZING drinks. The food… OMG. We ordered 4 dishes initially and they were so good, we kept ordering as we wanted to try more. It was mouthwatering! The best food I have eaten in Europe so far. Cannot give enough praise. We loved it! I would recommend making a booking so you don’t miss out.

After having been exposed to the top restaurants of the world from childhood, raised by extreme foodies, Disfrutar is in a class of its own. This was hands down, the best meal I’ve ever had in my life. I do not say that lightly. Every dish has you captivated in absolute astonishment, forcing you to question everything that you have ever considered food or a dining experience. Unpretentious, absolute wonder in every bite, simply amazing. Michelin star restaurant after Michelin star restaurant, Disfrutar is on a completely different level FAR above all the rest. It’s almost hard to write a review grand enough to properly honor the treasure that is this place. Absolutely extraordinary, culinary genius. Thank you for bringing your art to this world. So grateful to have been there and hope to someday return.

I really enjoyed the food on this establishment. The decor is really beautiful. Sure the place can get noisy and the lines to wait to be seated can be a bit annoying but after we were sat the service was effective and fast. I was a bit overwhelmed when first entering because I didn't know they had multiple mini restaurants inside. In the end we opted to have tapas. Tapas are not cheap and for a couple the prices can be a bit steap for the quantity you end up eating. Nevertheless the food was incredible. I enjoyed it and I'd recommend at least coming inside just to browse around it. It's very beautiful.

I must say that the views from the top of the Temple of Sacred Jesus in Barcelona are absolutely breathtaking. The climb up to the top may be a bit of a challenge for some, but the reward is well worth it. From the top of the temple, you can see panoramic views of Barcelona and its surroundings. The sprawling cityscape, the sparkling blue waters of the Mediterranean Sea, and the distant mountains all come together to create an unforgettable vista. The intricate architecture of the temple itself is also a sight to behold. The detailed carvings and ornate spires are a testament to the skill and craftsmanship of the builders who created it. I highly recommend taking the time to visit the Temple of Sacred Jesus and experience these incredible views for yourself. It's an unforgettable experience that you won't want to miss.

You get some really nice views of the city, ocean, and the docks (if that interests you for some reason). I do recommend you take the Gondola lift up there though!

An awesome aquarium! Full of fish and ecosystems from all over the world, English explanations and descriptions which is always a plus. They had a cool massive tank where the fish were able to swim overhead. Just step on the moving floor and take in all the fish. They had the opportunity to swim with the sharks, but I did not take that option. Penguins! They have penguins as well. Kids would love it, no shortage of animals to see.

Art lovers should definitely stop here. A great experience for concert, dance performance and another performance. It was amazing to experience great works in a historic building. We went to a Star Wars-themed performance and it was amazing. It deserves the money given. Most importantly, acoustics are great. Everything was great in stage planning and technically. While coming to Barcelona, the events here should be followed and gone. The only missing officers were a little rude and insensitive. Everything else was perfect.

Amazing construction in a wonderful and green landscape from the top of the hill, view is also amazing. Of course, it is not a very old construction since it was built in 1929 for the international exhibition. To get to the top you need a lot of steps, but here I was impressed, as it has on the right side as you can see, escalators that save you a lot of climbing. We visited it on a Saturday evening and it was indeed very crowded, as there was also a celebration where many young people were dancing to Latin rhythms. Besides all that the museum had a very nice christian religion exhibition, I think was the biggest one I have ever seen.

A beautiful, clean park with many areas to set up a blanket and hang out, snack/drink spots, and bathrooms. The main fountain is breathtaking, but unfortunately the water was a gross green due to the fountains being off to conserve water in the city. The lake with boats is cute, but definitely too crowded to partake - we saw many people struggling to navigate the boats in the small area. The park is very dog friendly and does not require leashes. Nice to walk around.

Such a great day out - we went twice! I feel this park is an underrated gem. Such a variety of things to do from rides to immersive tours. We visited in the height of summer but the ride queues weren't that bad. I don't want to give too much away, but for a family day out it's hard to beat, well worth the effort of travelling up there, we used a mix of metro, tibibus and finally the funicular. It is on multi levels so expect plenty of walking.

Our experience is fantastic! We booked an organized tour through the Get Your Guide app. The group was not big at all, there were ten of us in total. The guide was pleasant, friendly and willing to answer all the questions we had. Also, her English was really good and easy to understand. The Casa Mila is also phenomenal, as is everything about it - the architecture, the way it was built, the aesthetics, the interior, the roof, which is beautiful, unique and fantastic for great photos. To all of you who are planning to visit, I strongly suggest that you buy tickets in advance because there are huge crowds in the season (as for every other attraction in Barcelona), and if you are able to spare a little more money, I strongly advise you to pay for this sunrise tour with a guide, because with that small group of ten people you will be the only ones in the whole house, which is ideal for great photos and a peaceful tour! The tour starts at 8 am and lasts about an hour. That way, just when the doors open for all the other visitors, you have finished your tour and can go on to visit the other attractions that this fantastic city has to offer.
