Theme park
PortAventura Park is a world-building theme park divided into five areas representing different continents, each with buildings and rides reflecting the culture of the country. The park features traditional entertainment facilities, roller coasters, rapids, 4D cinemas, and more. With over 1 million square meters of stunning landscape and 30,000 plant species, it offers a captivating experience.
Fantastic day out. Not been here since 2013, so 12 years on from then. We will be doing Ferrari Land another day before we leave the town. Since working out and becoming a bit wider in certain areas, I don’t fit on some of the rides. Due to the narrow bucket seats. Not a problem, but could do with a tester seat at some of the longer wait rides, so that the ride doesn’t get held up by not fitting in. Overall, very clean and enjoyable day.

Nice theme park very spacious and organised. Very long queues and sometimes the rides get out off order due technical problems ( happened with us in several of them ) Food are overpriced for the quality and quantity and they charge a fee for the cup all the time . The shows are good decoration amazing area clean and organised. Worth a visit but you need to have patience for queues in every were

Great experience for both adults and kids (8/10 y). We arrived on Saturday and stayed until Tuesday. A little bit crowded for top attractions but in 2 day we can touch them all. We had also checked at their hotel and I would strongly recommend, as you have 30min in advance exclusivity to the park in the morning before opening hours

We, family of 4 (with an 8 and a 3 yo) were nicely surprised by this amusement park. We went in November during All Saints holidays and there was hardly any waiting time at the rides. Staff was really well made up for Halloween event, and the park was really nicely decorated. The only minor thing to improve would be to put a sign on the parking lot to remind people that it is forbidden to bring food and drinks to the park. An amazing experience to repeat longer next time!

Amazing and very large park. If you want to ride all the thrill rides then you have to buy the express pass. Otherwise you have to stay in lines for hours and you will be absolutely disappointed and same goes for ferrari land. Puy the express pass before visiting because they will sell out fast even on weekdays.

We visited this park during half term after a recommendation from friends. We stayed on site at Hotel Gold River (see separate review). Over all we enjoyed this park as a stop gap from our summer visits to florida. Pros Great themeing in the park. The park is well laid out and themed throughout. It is easy to find your way around. There are numerous food and drinks stalls and the prices are reasonable when compared to a UK theme park. Our favorite ride was Shambhala with the shortest queues being in the morning at opening and then at night. The water rides rarely had queues over 30 minutes. We visited over Halloween and the scare zone was a nice addition. For the evening parade / show we paid €9 each for priority seating which included a drink, this was definitely worth it. Cons Smoking in the park. As frequent visitors to florida parks and UK theme parks we found this really unpleasant. Smoking seems to be accepted in most areas of the park, including queues and eating areas. It made for an overall unpleasant smell. With the exception of Shambhala the rollercoaster type rides are rough. Furious Baco, Dragon Khan, Tomahawk, El Diablo. All almost gave us concussion....one ride each per day was enough. As our 1st visit to a theme park in Europe we enjoyed it, but made us want to rebook Florida!

We have been to this theme park several times before. It is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year (2025), and it is still good value for money. Some restaurants were closed, but there was enough to cater for the number of visitors. All the staff were friendly and the longest ride queue was 40 minutes. The light show at the end was amazing.
Mark H — Google review
The best theme park in Europe, my favorite place on Earth! However, it has a few problems that must be considered before booking tickets/stays: - Waiting times are long, you should definitely plan on spending more than one day, or buy an Express Pass. - Food and drinks are extremely expensive. If you stay at one of the hotels, consider bringing your water and also some snacks. Now for the positives: - Best rollercoasters in Europe, and some special and brutal rides as well - Beautiful themed decorations and shows - The hotels are amazing, and a very good deal (considering the quality of the rooms and the fact that they include tickets to the park) Wish I could give it 10 stars, but it's not perfect (for now). I hope you enjoy it, and don't forget the sunscreen!

The Central Market of Tarragona, also known as Mercat Central de Tarragona, is a lively indoor market hall that features a variety of vendors including butchers, bakers, and artisanal food stalls. The market is located in the medieval Carmen neighborhood, surrounded by historical landmarks such as the Cathedral and its famous bell tower.
This place is in an old historical market hall but inside is fully modernised, believe it or not there is a fully blown supermarket below the old builing. And there is a beautiful town square. Search out the sites from the city wall

A Must‑Visit Spot in Tarragona’s Heart – Central Market I spent around 20 minutes exploring the Central Market in Tarragona and would definitely recommend a quick visit! This beautiful Modernist building (from 1915, renovated in 2017) stands proudly just off Rambla Nova—its three spacious naves, iron columns, ceramic roof and arched facades make it architecturally striking and inviting. Inside, the market buzzes with life: around 40 stalls offer fresh local seafood, fish, meats, bakery products, sweets, wines and more—many from generational vendors representing true Catalan flavour. All around the building you’ll find plenty of bars and cafés, perfect for a random coffee and something sweet after strolling through stalls. There’s even a carillon clock show daily at 12:00 pm and 6:00 pm (and 8:00 pm in summer).

Great market to sample local produce. Abundance of fresh seafood, meat, cheese etc. I wish I lived here.

Great market to buy fresh fish, meat, cheese, and other delicacies. There are some places where you can get small fried foods like empanadas. You can also get prepared foods and drinks at a few of the bars offering service. Sadly, we came during a time where they didn't have paella like we had hoped, but there was more than enough other options. There was also a market outside selling textiles, clothes, etc.

The stylish interior features exposed brick walls and vibrant accents, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Known for its Mediterranean tapas and exquisite tasting menus, El Terrat emphasizes high-quality ingredients and culinary artistry. While the extensive menu tempts with various options, the tasting menu stands out as a must-try for those seeking an explosion of flavors at a reasonable price.
Very high standing cuisine 😄👍. Unfortunately the service don't understand the great menu and cannot explain. Sad for the great chef that part of his creation gets lost on the way to the table. Never give up!

Excellent restaurant with cutting edge cuisine. The frozen olives with anchovy stuffing exploded with flavor. The hors d'oeuvres were truly inspirational and the red tuna was spot on.

Apart from the wine list, there is little to recommend this restaurant for me. We had the ‘Olivus’ taster menu and we found the food overwhelmingly bland if well presented. For a place with prices like this and a reputation as it does, I was expecting something sensational and was thoroughly disappointed. I would not recommend going here.

Fine dining lunch tasting menu, right in the centre of town. Professional from start to finish, efficient approach to service...once you select your menu, the dishes keep coming. Each dish is a sight to behold and a marvel of flavour and texture. Our menu had a great variety of produce, favouring fish, which was delicately marinated or cooked to perfection. Beef was included and was as flavoursome and tender as I've ever had. I'd highly recommend a visit. The value is incredible, so this would be a great spot for a family occasion or a get together with your foodie friends. The sommelier chose the dry white wine...a French one surprisingly (in Spain) and it was perfect for the first half dozen courses. A great choice.

The food here, except for rather insipidly bland raw prawn starter, was exceptional, definitely 1 star Michelin quality. Some dishes, especially 2 sets of amuse bouche, pre-dessert - all 2 star material. What lets down this amazing food is rather dull dining room (it's neither funki modern to explain lack of any details to grab onto, nor cosy in any way, facilities, like toilets with diluted soap (!) that sprays everywhere because it's so diluted, seriously, with people paying minimum €85 per menu you economise on €5 soap?!), that and overstretched service. Service simply doesn't match the food, even though it is kind, the nicest of the servers was Carla. They have to be careful also with the language, double-check twice if needed, but my alternative to lamb was pork, though waitress called it beef. I happened to be OK with it, when instead porc came out (incidentally it was by far THE best pork dish I ever tasted), but imagine if you are Muslim or Jewish, the shock of it. Water without gas was ordered, but sparkling brought, took ages to replace it with server not even apologising and pulling a face when i said to change it/that it was wrong. Wine not offered at all at any time throughout the long lunch, staff are ran off the feet and don't upsell anything- the owner may be better off paying one extra wage instead of very few staff being stressed out and not offering guests any service except bring dishes out and take away the plates. The owner is sure missing out on a lot of revenue because of this. Water was not even offered at all on arrival or at any time, and had to be asked for, as was bread, as was olive oil, and it all took way too long to arrive. No warmth or kindness from staff at all except lovely Carla, but she was ran off her feet. Now to the food - the amuse bouche were exceptional, especially smoked sardine fois gras "sandwich" with mango & sesame crackers. Strawberry pre-dessert is also fabulous. Petit fours very good indeed. Salted chocolate dessert michelin quality, great technique on display. Tuna is too cold, and the whole dish lacking zing. Pork dish, melt in one's mouth, crackling type finish up the top - exceptional. As was artichoke "soup" dish. Oysters hiding under foam with seasonal asparagus is also very good. If they can fix the service, facilties, toilets, and get order and sense in service, with one server throughout dining experience for specific tables, instead of all that mingling of staff, and slightly sharpen the menu, this is one star Michelin in the making. The food is practically already there. Bread was excellent too. I loved the use of stunning ceramics, especially those with antiquity references. Enjoyed the experience, at least the food and the ceramics.

Overall a decent experience at El Terrat and I will definitely not return. + Excellent desserts, beautiful presentation on the dishes, affordable prices for such a high level restaurant and nice presentation of the different dishes - Very dark place, the staff wasn't the friendliest although highly knowledgeable about the food options. Finally, the restaurant only offers 4 main dish options besides the degustation menu which makes sense for a Michelin restaurant, however one of them wasn't even available ( the beef tenderloin) on a Saturday Afternoon which is supposed to be a really busy time and day and the ONLY meat options on the menu were pigeon and deer. Therefore, whoever didn't want to eat seafood and wanted to get a meat plate HAD to get deer or pigeon which without a doubt aren't not types of meat that everybody wants to eat.

Catalonian restaurant
Nestled in the charming Part Alta, El Llagut is a delightful seafood restaurant that invites you to indulge in authentic Catalan rice dishes. With a rustic ambiance and outdoor seating, it’s the perfect spot for those craving fresh fish without venturing far from the city center. Here, you won’t find the typical tourist paella; instead, prepare to be surprised by unique local recipes featuring an array of catches like calamari, shrimp, beach crabs, rockfish, and clams.
Wow! What a fantastic experience! The food I had here was truly one of a kind. Everything was incredibly flavorful, fresh, and delicious. I highly recommend ordering the salad with lettuce, hazelnuts, and fish—it was the best salad I have ever eaten! They also offered a complimentary drink that contained garlic, apple, and other ingredients, which was a unique experience in itself. 100% recommended!

I rarely leave reviews but this place deserves one - was recommended by our landlord while we were on holiday in Tarragona . And oh wow, what beautiful food! We ordered 4 dishes between us and were nicely full after. We had fish with vegetables (it was a cold dish and was called spicy but it was just tasty not spicy 😋) - absolutely heavenly. We also had mussels - they were incredibly fresh and delicious, neat mussles I have ever had (and I had a lot of them in my life!). We also had octopus croquettes which were tasty , crunchy on the outside and soft and yummy on the inside. And finished off with fried squid with beans - my least favourite but not because it was not amazing - the other dishes were just such winners. Anyway, we also had 4 glasses of wine between us and a glass of cava. All came in under 75 euros which , for the quality of the food and the lovely ambience , was a steal. The service was not the best but it really didn’t take away from the overall experience. Highly recommended!

Went to El Llagut for dinner on Friday and we were very pleased. I went for the rice with velvet crab which was delicious, and rich with flavour. The service was humble, not trying too hard but our server was always present if we needed anything. The atmosphere was romantic; we sat inside, which was cosy, and quite busy, without being overbearing. The prices were also very reasonable despite the excellent service and attention to detail. If we ever come back to Tarragona we will be back!

El Llagut is a fantastic spot in Tarragona for fresh, flavorful seafood. The fish was incredibly fresh, and the waitstaff made us feel welcome with their friendly service. We started our meal with steamed mussels, which were perfectly cooked, and then enjoyed two outstanding rice dishes: the arroz mariner de cangrejo de playa (fisherman’s rice with mixed seafood) and the arroz negro con sepia, cangrejo de playa y almejas (black rice with cuttlefish, beach crab, and clams). Both were packed with rich, balanced flavors that showcased the quality of the ingredients. A wonderful dining experience — highly recommended for anyone wanting to savor authentic seafood and rice dishes in Tarragona.

Our experience at Aq was wonderfully. As we walked in, we were given the choice of picking our table, so we chose the corner bar table with the view over the whole restaurant and the kitchen. Our waiter was Tony, and I can say after watching this young man working all evening that HE IS A BEAST ! Answering every question i had about the wines and knowing every technique involved in the preparation of any of the dishes let me pleasantly surprised. The food was great, small appetizers and quite generous main courses. The restaurant is running on share dinning concept, which would work her preferably for 3 to 4 people but is also good for two. All the food arrived at a steady pace, not more than 20 minutes interval. Kitchen is quiet, no useless talk and the chef keeps everything under control with ease. Overall a great experience witch i recomand for everyone that passes or lives in Tarragona

Conceptually the food was great but I think execution might have suffered a little. The shrimp tartare in ajo blanco was good with contrasting texture of the shrimp, ajo blanco, almonds and fried garlic but it could have used some acid like lemon to brighten it up. The fried boqueirones were very lightly marinated and not crispy. I ended up deboning each little fish because the centerline bone was not really edible. Least favorite of the meal. The last dish was eel and foie with figs. It was almost great but there was too much soy sauce and combined with the fleur de sel made it much too salty. The soy was also much too strong and the dish could have benefited from a lighter one. Service was great as well as the wine list.

This was an absolutely outstanding experience! ✨ From the very moment we walked in, it was clear that every detail here is carefully thought through. The atmosphere is calm, stylish, and full of taste and respect for every guest. The staff deserves special praise — incredibly professional, attentive, and creating a sense of comfort and care. Each dish was beautifully explained, and the presentation came with a story and emotion. This is exactly how a fine dining experience should feel! As for the cuisine — this is not just food, it is true art. Bold combinations, harmony of flavors, and perfect balance in every detail. At times, it felt like the chef was working as an artist, creating culinary masterpieces that leave a lasting impression. The desserts were a true highlight. They weren’t just a sweet ending to the dinner, but an entire journey of flavors. Delicate textures, refined pairings, and a perfect balance of sweetness and lightness — each creation placed a vivid gastronomic exclamation mark that stayed with us long after. A special mention goes to the wine tasting set: the selection was perfectly matched to each dish. Every wine unfolded in a new way alongside the cuisine, creating a unique symphony of flavors. This restaurant is not for a quick bite. It is a destination for impressions, atmosphere, and unforgettable gastronomic discoveries. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We left full of gratitude and with a strong desire to return again.

Overrated, interesting experience with the storylines but the food is just OK nothing spectacular, the quality itself of ingredients and so on is not there. Never had such horrible oysters, same for the foie gras...the wine pairing was mediocre. Waiters did their best, the chef had an arrogant attitude. All in all would avoid, doesnt compare to other Michelin Star restaurants I have been to.
Hamza M — Google review
Salou isn't the most obvious location for a Michelin-starred restaurant, particularly one as eccentric as Deliranto turned out to be. So, when we were booking our recent holiday to the Catalan resort and discovered that this restaurant existed we were delighted to be able to book a visit. In these Covid-infested times we had no idea how the experience would turn out. We need not have worried. Upon our arrival it was clear that some things were a little bit different because of Covid. Our first stop was the hand sanitiser station for example. Though we didn't have to wear masks, all the serving staff did, and the tables were very well spaced out to allow social distancing. These were all small prices to pay however for the experience that awaited us. Menus at Deliranto are based around a story, and during our visit it was the fable of Orpheus, and how he, Neo and Trinity freed humanity from The Matr....oh, sorry, Orpheus. Anyway, the whole menu was based around this theme, including some of the utensils (plates just doesn't do them justice) on which the various courses are served on. There were two menus to choose from, of which we opted for the long. It's hard to say exactly how many courses this actually contained because there was so much food it all became a blur. There were also a choice of two wine flights, of which we plumped for the smaller, which contained five glasses. This differed from wine flights I've had before in a couple of ways: Firstly, if you finished your glass the waiter topped it up for you. Secondly, we were given the choice between red and white wines on a couple of occasions. Each of the wines were delicious, many of them local and with the aperitif before our meal and the sake served with one of the courses there was plenty enough to be going along with! So, on to the food. There was a lot of food. It was very good food, ranging from good to great to exceptional. Starting with olives which weren't olives but were actually ricotta and jalapeno and tomato and balsamic spheres respectively. Ending with a refreshing lychee dessert and taking in all manners of wonders in between. A book containing delicious soups. A treasure chest of the most perfect squid I've ever tasted. A cube of curried lamb. A 'carbonara' with ribbons of daikon instead of pasta. Wagyu beef with a coffee sphere served on a boat with a mini souffle. A quenelle of beef tartare designed to be split in two and made into DIY beef wellington and steak tartare. A cube of lamb with curry sauce. A dessert of rose and pistachio. On and on it went. I could barely manage the last slab of 'fish of the day' and forwent an after dinner coffee as I didn't think I could manage the petit fours. They served us them anyway. With the menu being in Spanish and Google Translate being of limited use (what, exactly is 'Pig and Pig of Pig?) it was often hard to know how far we'd actually got. Service was excellent throughout. Our main waitress and sommelier both did a fantastic job explaining the food, wines and stories, in spite of the language barrier and wearing muffling face masks. At one point everyone ate the same dish, accompanied by a speech from one of the waiters and playing of the Can Can, which is from the Offenbach opera of Orpheus. Bonkers. This wasn't just a meal, it was a story, a performance. It wasn't a cheap one but it was certainly memorable and I'd urge anyone who likes fine dining and is in Salou to give it a whirl. You won't regret it and you'll never, ever forget it.

Exceptional experience! Our first Michelin starred restaurant, and what a journey!! Everything from the food to the staff was awesome. The quality of the food is, obviously, pretty up. But the kindness of the waiter/waitress is above everything I have ever seen. Not too present, not too distant, just what you need to have a comfortable experience without having someone behind your back everytime you pick your fork. We had the regular menu (130€), not the extended (160€), and we were more than full at the end of it lol. We had 13 or 15 dishes, on a 2h30 time-line. Add to that the 5 wines' glasses (55€) according to the food coming. You definitely pay for what you get, and you get A LOT! 😄 A huge thank you to all the team, chef and everyone there working in this restaurant. Bravo 👏

Mediterranean restaurant
For an unforgettable culinary adventure, Arcs Restaurant is a must-visit destination. Nestled within a charming historic building adorned with stunning stone arches, this eatery offers a cozy atmosphere that perfectly complements its innovative menu. Here, traditional Mediterranean dishes are reimagined with modern flair—imagine savoring duck magret paired with foie and hibiscus caramel or kangaroo served alongside gooseberries and cacao.
I believe this restaurant is one of my top favorites in Catalunya. Everything was wonderful: the service, location, and of course, the food. I highly recommend the salad and the lamb. All the desserts were incredible.

I was at the end of restaurant where is no signal and poor WiFi so reading menu through QR code is not simple and when I asked for beer twice I was probably not heard because I didn't received it. Overall experience is very good because food is delicious. You need more money to eat here.

Our favourite restaurant in Tarragona for a nice dinner to treat yourself This is a hidden gem, not very visible from the street, but oh my. They have a really interesting menu that offers traditional dishes with interesting twists. The restaurant gave us an aperitif of an olive cream with turmeric and curry. For starters we had 2 half portions of a mixed salad with langoustines in a crispy wrap and a Parmesan ice cream and then an escalivada with tomato carpaccio, olive oil caviar and a twist on sardines and tapenade. For the mains we had the fish of the day that was corvina with patatas panaderas and confit peppers and then rabbit shoulders cooked on a mustard stew with barley. For dessert we went for the canutillos de arroz con leche with cinnamon ice cream and the crema catalana with orange juice sorbet. Really recommend all of them, each one was amazing. The staff was also super friendly, helpful and attentive. From outside it might look closed, but push the door!

We had a pleasant evening here whilst staying locally on holiday. The service was friendly and attentive, but the food just didn't quite hit the mark. Some of the flavours were not well balanced and some just didn't match the main item on the plate. The tasting menu was €50 each. We had a nice evening, but the food was just ok.

We went for the tasting menu and wine pairing which was 45 + 18 euros and felt it was well worth the price. The restaurant was quaint and historical which was probably the highlight. The meal consisted of an apertif of a variation of pan con tomat followed by an appitizer of tuna and salmon tartar & a paté which were all delicous. This was followed by an almond & garlic confit soup with marinated blue fish and then an aberian ham, fish and apple with peso dish and then a crispy canelloni stuffed with veal and a red wine reduction - which again were all very good and best in ascending order. The desserts were okay with a lemon sorbet and a white or dark chocolate dessert (go with the dark).
