Brugarol Barcelona

Here's another gastronomic gem hidden in the tiny streets of Gothic Quarter of Barcelona. However, the search is totally worth it. Although the place is really small, about 6 tables it is huge on chef's creativity and flavor. The place is specializing on seafood, but their meat dishes are equally delicious and flavorful. And the dessert isn't an exception, this is probably the best dessert I was eating for the last year. It was salted miso caramel, something with dark chocolate. We had 9 courses tasting the menu, but I insist you should try it if you order your dishes separately. Since the place is small, the reservation is recommended.

When in Barcelona, you should make a reservation for this restaurant. I don't recall how I came across this establishment but I would not hesitate to go again.

When walking in, the design feels very cozy and homey. The person serving me that night was also extremely kind and explained each dish. Additionally, you are also able to see the chefs creating each dish and if at the bar, you are able to talk to them.

I opted for the 9 course tasting menu and everything was absolutely delicious. I was blown away by one of the sashimi dishes and the truffle flan dish. Other dishes I'd like to highlight are the ox tail, scallops, and a dish with tofu (done in a way I had never experienced, kind of like a paste).

Overall, if you enjoy tasting menus and appreciate small details in your food, I would highly recommend this restaurant. Thank you to the chefs and staff.

Our favorite meal in Barcelona. The 70€ nine course tasting menu is amazing, every single dish tastes and looks delicious. Our favorites are the scallop, blue fin, sashimi and monkfish, but honestly nothing disappointed and we were excited for every bite. This place also uses local and sustainable ingredients as much as possible which is great. We had a wine pairing and our favorites were the cava and Verdejo. Our server did a wonderful job explaining the dishes and drinks and we learned a lot about Spanish wines. The menu is very seafood forward which we loved. The restaurant is located in the gothic quarter so just walking around before and after the meal is an experience, the catedral de Barcelona is very close to the restaurant. We found the tasting menu very filling and left the restaurant incredibly happy we decided to eat here. Definitely give this place a try if you love seafood and want to experience the gothic quarter.

The food was delicious, but the experience was affected by some significant issues. The restaurant was unbearably hot, making it hard to enjoy the meal. Additionally, the space was overcrowded with nearly 20 people packed into a small area, creating a cramped, have two dining rounds between 7:30 PM and 10:30 which puts pressure on guests to finish quickly and leave. While the food was great, these operational issues need improvement.

We had the tasting menu here and it was outstanding. Each dish was beautifully crafted and delicious. The chef's creativity and attention to detail were impressive. Highly recommended!

Incredible food in a trendy, relaxed setting. Every dish is so beautifully presented and the flavours are so tasty, definitely the best fish I have ever eaten. Loved that everything is sustainably and seasonally sourced. Very friendly staff too. We loved it, thanks guys!!

We often tell folks this was one of the best meals of our life. The truffle egg is life changing. We were so lucky to stumble upon this restaurant one afternoon and man was it the greatest strike of serendipity ever. The table next to us was telling us how they've been eating at many Michelin restaurants throughout Europe and this meal is still their favorite meal of all of them too. Just go if you have the chance.
