Basilica
Sights & Landmarks
The Basílica de la Sagrada Família, located in the Example district of Barcelona, is a renowned unfinished church designed by Antoni Gaudí. Construction began in 1882 and has continued for over a century after Gaudí's death. The basilica features impressive facades representing the glory, the Birth, and the Passion of Jesus. It boasts 8 imposing towers with panoramic city views from elevators on each facade.
The Sagrada Familia is truly a masterpiece. It's a unique and must-see structure. Construction is still underway, and it's expected to be completed around 2026. New details are being added every day, and I'm amazed every time I see this monument. We paid 26 euros per person to enter. It costs 26 euros for those under 30, and 30 euros for those 30 and over. I recommend purchasing tickets from the Sagrada Familia official website before arriving. There are some scam sites, so you should choose the official website. There's a long line to buy tickets, but if you have your tickets online, simply scan the QR code when the time comes to enter. Also, a little tip: the souvenir shops right in front are expensive; if you go downstairs, you can buy some beautiful magnets for 1 euro. The entrance is accessible for disabled individuals and strollers. The tour takes almost an hour and a half..

Visiting the Sagrada Família was honestly one of the highlights of my trip. You see photos everywhere, but nothing compares to standing in front of it and realizing how enormous and detailed it really is. Designed by Antoni Gaudí, construction started in 1882 and it’s still not finished but it's coming to an end. There’s something amazing about seeing a building that’s been growing for more than a century and continues to evolve with each generation continuing Gaudi's vision. Every part of it tells a story: the Nativity Façade is full of life and nature, while the Passion Façade is dramatic and emotional. Inside, the light through the stained-glass windows looks magical — it changes color throughout the day and fills the space with warmth, peace and wonderful colours. Even with all the crowds, the atmosphere is calm and awe-inspiring. It really feels like a place where art, faith, and nature come together. It's one of the most beautiful landmarks on the world. Book tickets online in advance and go early in the morning if you want to avoid long lines. And if you can, climb one of the towers — the view over Barcelona is unforgettable.

The Basilica de la Sagrada Família in Barcelona is one of the most extraordinary architectural masterpieces in the world. Designed by Antoni Gaudí, it perfectly combines faith, art, and innovation. The intricate details of the façade, inspired by nature and biblical stories, are breathtaking, while the interior feels almost otherworldly, filled with colorful light streaming through the stained-glass windows. The atmosphere inside is both peaceful and awe-inspiring. Although the basilica is still under construction, this adds a unique charm, witnessing a living piece of history being completed. Visiting the Sagrada Família is an unforgettable experience and an absolute must-see in Barcelona.

The Sagrada Familia is incredible. We did a guided tour which was great for a couple reasons. One, we got to walk pass the line with our guide which saved us time. Also, our guide was able to give us so many details about the structure we wouldn't have noticed otherwise. We went during the Golden Hour, which is when the sun is setting and the light shines through the stain glass, creating a Golden light. The details in the structure from the outside to the inside is spectacular. Highly recommend getting tickets way in advance so you don't miss out on the Sagrada Familia.

We had a guided tour. We don't normally do this but in this case it was necessary. The guide was informative amusing and personable. As for the Sagrada Familia itself, quite simply WOW! It was everything we had been told and so much more. The explanations of Gaudi's reasoning for the various aspects of the design brought the whole building into focus. It is truly an experience. The company we used was The Tour Guy. If all their guides are as good as ours you cannot go wrong. It may seem costly but IMHO it's worth it.

When in Barcelona, you have to visit the masterpiece of Gaudí. Book your tickets in advance and also get a guided tour. It will be a tour of around two hrs and your guide will explain about each and everything. This place is not just a church it’s a masterpiece of human kind. This place is an experience that you must do. I will recommend to visit either early in morning at the time of sunrise or in evening around 4pm at sunset. You will experience the place at its best and you will able to see the importance of time and light in the church. It’s the best architecture i have ever seen. Must book your tickets at-least 20 days in advance and also choose the tower access for the best views in city.

The Basilica of the Sagrada Família is truly one of the most awe-inspiring sites in the world and ​s​hould be on your must-see ​ list in Barcelona. No photos can capture the feeling of standing inside and seeing the light pour through the stained-glass windows—it’s breathtaking. The blend of color, geometry, and symbolism in Gaudí’s design is unlike anything else. Every column and carving feels purposeful, telling a story that connects nature, faith, and art. We booked ​a​ guided tour in advance, which made entry smooth and stress-free. ​The tours have a dedicated line making clearing security and entering the Basilica easy and highly recommended ​for the information provided by the guides making the experience more memorable​. Allow at least ​60-90 minutes to fully take it in, and don’t rush. Whether you’re religious or not, this is a place that inspires reflection and wonder.​ You are welcome to sit and reflect in one of the pews or simply rest your feet. You can buy tickets to view Barcelona from the top or visit the basement for more history and the gift shop. Unlike any church or basilica you will see.

Magnificent structure! I have visited Barcelona three times, and during my second visit, I had the chance to explore the interior as well. Both the inside and outside are truly unique. It’s an amazing experience to examine the figures on the exterior one by one. The ticket includes an audio guide, and by downloading the Sagrada Familia app to your phone, you can access a step-by-step audio guide that explains both the exterior and interior of the building. By the way, I recommend purchasing your ticket a week or two before your trip.

Nature & Parks
Park Güell is a must-visit destination in Barcelona, showcasing the genius of architect Antoni Gaudi. This verdant park features mosaic-covered buildings, grand staircases, and sculptures that are truly captivating. The park offers panoramic views of Barcelona and the Mediterranean Sea. One of its most famous attractions is the colorful mosaic salamander, a popular spot for visitors to take selfies.
Park Güell is truly one of the highlights of Barcelona and an absolute must-see! The moment you enter, you’re surrounded by Gaudí’s magical designs colorful mosaics, flowing shapes, playful architecture, and spaces that feel like they belong in a fairytale. The panoramic views of the city and the sea are breathtaking and perfect for photos. It’s a place where nature, creativity, and architecture blend beautifully. The park is large enough to wander, relax, and enjoy the scenery at your own pace, yet every corner has something unique to admire. The Monumental Zone, mosaic benches, and the famous lizard sculpture are definite standouts. The atmosphere is peaceful, inspiring, and full of charm. Tickets are timed, so booking ahead is smart and you should be there as early as you can, because it gets crowded quickly and the morning light makes everything even more beautiful. Comfortable shoes are also helpful due to hills and walking paths. Overall, Park Güell is a wonderful experience vibrant, artistic, and unforgettable. If you’re visiting Barcelona, don’t miss it!

The buildings are great, but you can see them from the street, from the main entrance, so it's not worth buying a ticket. It's true that the park has other beautiful places than the well known Gaudi's buildings, but we wanted to visit it for this only reason and we left disappointed
Larisa U — Google review
If Gaudi knew his masterpieces would be turned into a tourist trap THIRSTING for money, he would be disgusted. I bought the tickets. Had an accident, couldn't attend exactly at the time that I had scheduled the tickets. They couldn't do anything. Not even get me a discount. Come on, do better. Ok, bought new tickets. The park is interesting, Gaudi never misses. Is it worth it paying 18 euros? Of course not. Stand outside the gates and you will see 95% of everything worth seeing. The workers are unprepared. There are so many nice things to see in Barcelona, if you don't have a lot of time, don't bother coming here.

Nice place to go for a walk, because in the city there is not much of a green areas around. But be aware that there is a lot of stairs in the park. So if you are coming with a stroller, that could be a challenge for you. Also be ready for a lot of people. It was difficult to find a quiet spot around the park. You can see nice architecture and if you are lucky you can find a spot on the sun and just relax for a bit.

Make sure to buy your tickets online beforehand or you likely won’t get in. Entrance fee is a little steep for what it is but nevertheless, still a great Gaudi experience. The place gets overly crowded so that definitely takes away from the overall experience.

Was a very interesting place to walk around to see Gaudí genius at work. However, it can’t match up with his other masterpiece, Sagrada Família. Nothing much does. Not even close ! In my opinion but worth a walk through but beware it’s 18 Eyries each overall around and some of the inside park attractions are extra. I added some pics of the more popular spots in this park. Enjoy ! Nov 2025

Park Güell is a breathtaking place to visit! It’s definitely a must-see location during your visit to Barcelona!!! The unique architecture, colorful mosaics, and beautiful natural surroundings makes the whole experience unforgettable. The views of Barcelona from the park are stunning,l! Honestly, every corner of the park feels magical. The park perfectly captures Gaudí’s creativity and charm. I visited the park with a walking tour, which was amazing and worth every penny!

Museums
Casa Batlló, a museum in Barcelona, is an extraordinary apartment block designed by architect Antoni Gaudi. The building's facade is adorned with shards of stained glass that create a mesmerizing effect, resembling the ever-changing colors of a lake. Commissioned by textile industrialist Josep Batllo, Gaudi was tasked with creating a unique home that paid homage to Catalonian patron saint Jordi.
A mesmerizing masterpiece! The façade is stunning, but the interior experience is what truly brings Gaudí’s imagination to life. The audio guide is engaging, the colors and curves feel otherworldly, and the rooftop is unforgettable. Even if you’ve seen photos before, nothing compares to seeing it in person. A must-visit in Barcelona!
Fatih K — Google review
Well-made audio guide and efficient organization at the entrance. The house is wonderful, allowing you to fully discover Gaudí’s art. The ticket is a bit expensive (€36 for the Silver route). By choosing the Silver ticket, you also get access to the terrace with its colorful chimneys. Overall, a positive visiting experience.
Sarah — Google review
I went there twice already, once by day and the other time by night and the magic just never ends. Gaudi must have had a lot of fun designing this mysterious world into a house and it amazes me how he managed to make it possible. By night, the windows and sea life details create this enchanting atmosphere throughout the visit. I cannot recommend this architectural gem enough!!
Eugénie N — Google review
From the moment you arrive, the building’s facade grabs your attention – a surreal mix of bone-like balconies, mosaic tiles, and a dragon-scale roof that looks like it belongs in a fairytale. Inside, the experience becomes even more immersive. The flowing lines, natural light wells, and attention to detail in every corner show Gaudí’s genius not just as an architect, but as an artist deeply connected to nature. The audio-guided tour is excellent, enhanced with augmented reality features that help you imagine what the rooms would have looked like when the Batlló family lived there. Don’t miss the rooftop terrace – it offers beautiful views of the city and features the famous dragon-back design that symbolizes the legend of Saint George. Tips: Book your tickets in advance – it can get crowded, especially in high season. Go for the “Be the First” or “Magic Nights” experience if you're looking for a more intimate or romantic visit. Take your time. Every room and hallway hides some small detail you’ll regret rushing past. Whether you're an architecture lover, an art enthusiast, or simply curious, Casa Batlló is a must-see. It’s not just a building – it’s an experience.

Casa Batlló absolutely blew me away — it feels like stepping into a living, breathing piece of art. Gaudí’s imagination is on full display, from the flowing, nature-inspired interiors to the colorful mosaic façade that changes with the light. The rooftop, shaped like a dragon’s spine, is just unforgettable. It’s one of those places where every detail surprises you — truly magical.
Amel P — Google review
This house cannot be properly understood without going in. During the night I find it even more magical as you can really see how light plays a most important part in it's architecture. I was awed and actually didn't even want to go at first, but all the details took my breath away. The style is different inside and outside, so even if you're not a fan of Gaudi, give yourself a chance to go in. It is 100% worth it. And there's 100% accessibility! Elevators on request but to all floors.
Bianca X — Google review
Visiting Casa Batlló was one of the highlights of my trip to Barcelona. Here you can see Gaudí’s creativity up close- the flowing shapes, colorful mosaics, his vision and talent in every detail. The house was redesigned by Antoni Gaudí in the early 1900s for the Batlló family and is a perfect example of Catalan modernism. Every detail — from the wavy staircases to the vibrant tiles — is inspired by nature. The rooftop, shaped like a dragon’s back, offers great views over Passeig de Gràcia. I booked tickets online (around €30–€35) and still waited about 20–30 minutes to get in, so I’d definitely recommend buying skip-the-line tickets or going early in the morning. Inside, the audio guide is fantastic and really helps you understand Gaudí’s vision and his use of light and ventilation in every room. It’s busy, but completely worth it. I am not big fan of this type of art or architecture however it was an unforgettable experience.

Casa Batlló is a true testament to Antoni Gaudí's genius and creativity, showcasing his ability to blend architecture with nature and art. Located in the heart of Barcelona, this modernist masterpiece stands out with its vibrant colors, organic shapes, and intricate details that draw visitors in from the moment they arrive. One of the most striking features of Casa Batlló is its façade, adorned with a mosaic of colorful tiles that resemble the scales of a dragon, a nod to the legend of Saint George. The undulating lines and whimsical shapes give the building a fluidity that feels alive, embodying Gaudí’s philosophy of design inspired by natural forms. The balconies, resembling masks, add a playful character to the exterior, inviting admiration from passersby. Inside, the experience only gets better. The open spaces and natural light create a warm, inviting atmosphere. Gaudí’s attention to detail is evident in the custom furniture, stained glass windows, and the unique layout that encourages movement and exploration. The central atrium, with its blue gradient tiles, mimics the colors of the sea and sky, further connecting the interior with the natural world. Visiting Casa Batlló is not just about observing architecture; it’s about experiencing a piece of art that tells a story. Gaudí’s innovative use of materials and structural techniques pushes the boundaries of conventional design, making Casa Batlló a must-see for anyone interested in architecture, art, or culture. It’s a celebration of creativity that continues to inspire and captivate all who enter.

Arenas & Stadiums
The Spotify Camp Nou is the iconic home ground of the renowned Barcelona football club. It was inaugurated in 1957 and is known for having the greatest capacity in Europe, making it one of the largest stadiums globally. The stadium offers regular matches as well as tours and a museum, attracting football enthusiasts from around the world. Visitors can explore the locker rooms, tunnels, and field on a tour, providing an immersive experience into the team's environment.
Unfortunately, the stadium is being renovated, so you cannot see the true value of this football stadium. However, aware of the value of the stadium, its tradition, the fact that it is one of the most beautiful and largest stadiums in the world, it receives 5 stars. I will definitely come back once the stadium is finished to enjoy its beauty, but also to watch the Barcelona game :)

Our accommodation was only a 15-minute walk from Camp Nou, so even though it wasn’t part of our original plan, we decided to visit. Unfortunately, our travel dates didn’t match any match days, but it was still worth walking around the stadium, and especially visiting the official Barça merchandise store. Some people say there’s no need to come all the way here because the Barça stores in central Barcelona are cheaper and easier to access. But I disagree. This place is HUGE. A three-story building with practically everything you could imagine. You can find classic replica kits like the 94–95 away jersey, as well as Nike Dri-FIT official sponsor versions. There’s a wide variety of caps, bags, and other accessories too. The staff were all very friendly. You can even see Messi’s autographed jersey and captain’s armband. If you want, you can buy the replicas, just for €2,999.99 and €1,999.99 respectively. There’s also a café and a nice rest area, so if you’re visiting Barcelona and a football fan, I highly recommend stopping by this legendary place. + You can find drinks with Barça packaging for more generous price at supermarkets in the city center.

Very nice experience. The interactive museum is well made, got to see many iconic items on display. Thought not very big still a nice tour especially if you like the FC Barcelona team.

I’ve seen some complaints, but honestly -the stadium’s under renovation, not a secret! What did you expect, a VIP tour of cranes and concrete? The real magic is the feeling of Barça itself , the history, trophies, jerseys, and spirit. The interactive legends show gave me chills, and Messi’s iconic celebration against Madrid next to his golden shoes nearly broke my heart . Paid under €100 for two tickets Worth every cent. Can’t wait for the reopening! Visca el Barça!

Nou Camp, is a stadium in Barcelona and the home of La Liga club FC Barcelona since its opening in 1957. It is currently undergoing renovation, and with a planned increased seating capacity of 105,000[10] it will be the largest stadium in terms of seating capacity in Spain and Europe, and the third largest association football stadium in the world.

Was under construction, but still amazing, the trophy museum is a must too. Couldn’t go inside the stadium but there’s a construction viewpoint where you can see it from the outside but closer up. If visiting the stadium itself, get tickets of course, but for the trophy museum, you can purchase when you reach.

Museums
La Pedrera - Casa Milà, also known as "The Stone Quarry," is a remarkable building designed by Gaudi during his Catalan art nouveau period. The structure features a quarry-like facade and hosts various exhibitions and concerts. This luxurious apartment building, inspired by nature's spontaneous forms, is now a museum owned by a local bank. It offers numerous exhibition rooms and a concert hall, making it a unique place to visit in Barcelona.
The day before I went to Casa Batlló and that place truly sets the standards high maybe 7 stars, nevertheless the visit to La Pedrera IS certainly a serious 5 considering how well narrated the audio/video guide is and how extremely well kept the building is. At the time of my visit to the elevator was off for a couple of hours for maintenance, I was given the option to come by a little later or use the stairs for the first couple of floors; I recommend highly the stairs because it shows you the kind of attention to detail that went into the design of this marvelous building. I took my time walking up the stairs just enjoying otherwise common things like the handrails and wall surface finishes all the while commenting "if this are the service stairs how could the rest of the building be"... Soon you reach the first stop on the tour and you discover why Gaudí considered this his favorite family house. From little things usually overlooked but important as the ventilation to the design for the natural illumination of every apartment, this place is a Marvel of design ideas everyone can borrow from to make your next home better since Antonio Gaudí's design relied on ingenuity more than expense as one discovers little by little from room to room. There's a store within the building that is a museum on to itself, the items on it take you back to the Art Nouveau period, from elegant glassware and dining sets to beautiful wood miniatures of some of Gaudí's furniture concepts (quite expensive unless you considere they are all perfect replicas all the way to the wooden joinery - these are not toys they the perfect gift for any architect or industrial designer). I visited La Pedrera on a Sunday of September and although the entrance was obviously crowded, once inside the building it did not feel crowded at all; I attribute this to the well set pace of the tablet guides, exactly the same as it was at the Casa Batlló tour. As an Industrial Designer I believe what I enjoyed the most what's the underside of the roof top, it's a part of a building that's usually not shown but Gaudí expressed his creativity even on purely functional elements like those 231 different arches that you get to enjoy from the inside whilst discovering details of several famous buildings thru beautifully made models with individual narrations explaining the constructions for each. Just that space is worth the price of admission for anybody interested in Great Design, but getting to see the city from the rooftop full of those giant and so organic chimneys is the icing on the cake. On any day 1 can see all the way to the mountains and get excellent shots giant chimneys all around you. A must see for any visitor of Barcelona, and a life experience to any designer or art lover. I plan on visiting again and again every time I get a chance to visit this amazing design city of Barcelona.

Casa Milà, also known as La Pedrera, is absolutely stunning! Gaudí’s creativity and attention to detail are on full display here — from the flowing stone façade to the beautifully designed interiors and the surreal rooftop with its sculptural chimneys. The audio guide was excellent and really helped me understand the architectural innovations and history behind the building. The rooftop views of Barcelona are breathtaking, especially at sunset. Everything was well organized and staff were friendly and helpful. Definitely one of the must-see Gaudí masterpieces in Barcelona — an unforgettable experience!

We visited the Casa Milà late at night, having booked the night tickets, the group was only about 10 people, which was great! The tour guides know the building very well, and we learned a lot. We walked up to the 4th (a nice experience, as it is the original materials). Here, the museum/foundation has recreated the entire living experience i.e. as people would be living back when it was built. Very impressive. The tour then visits the upper areas of the building, where a.o. a huge maquette of the structure is used to explain all of the innovative techniques and inventions that were applied during construction, really amazing. Finally we went all the way up to the roof, with spectacular views of the surrounding City, and top it all off, a very nice sound and light show, and a walk around of the entire roof, with some of its amazing structures. The tour ends with a glass of cava and some sweets. We really enjoyed it!

I was in two minds whether to go in or let it be but again wanted to check what the legendary Antoni Gaudi had in store. Going in was a good call in the end. Highlight for me was not the furniture or interiors. They are pretty much the same for the period they belong to. Thr highlights for me were the patio, the loft, the chimneys and the roof itself. This is where Gaudis work shines :)

Cute designs! The experience is much different from the view on YouTube. I ended up buying a book to learn more about all of his buildings. To the surprise of the ignorant me 😶 Catalans respect time much more than French and Italian. Unlike the Louvre or Palazzo Pitti, reservation time slots are very honored. We missed ours and we had to wait for another hour for an empty spot. I wished Antoni designed something for the rain though, so that residents and tourists could enjoy their time when it's pouring 😄 waiting for the rain to stop at the moment. Best time for photos

Historical & Iconic & Landmark Building This is one of the most iconic Building done by Gaudi. If not the MOST iconic. I visited it a few times and always enjoy it. What is amazing is you can visit it ten times and each time you will discover something new. The view from the roof top are also amazing! Highly recommended visit, by us.

Fine dining restaurant
Disfrutar offers an upscale dining experience with a focus on experimental tasting menus that showcase Mediterranean seafood. The restaurant, which means 'Enjoy' in English, is known for its avant-garde $315 tasting menu created by chefs who were once part of Ferran Adria's team at elBulli. Dishes like onion soup reinvented as onion bread with Comte cheese and coconut squid meatballs with a hint of curry reflect the Bulli-esque wizardry.
I went to this restaurant in 2019. My experience was very good! My friends and I order the disfrutar classic menu. It was plenty of food, I believe 10 or 12 options, all of them very unique and different. I liked a lot. However, my friends considered that the menu has to be less food and the didn’t like the tables. Despite that comments, I consider that this restaurant deserves the Michelin Star!

It took us 2 years to get a reservation at this restaurant so we were definitely looking forward to the experience. I am happy to say that the experience met our high expectations. While the decor itself is somewhat minimalistic it was a treat to see the different work spaces/kitchens and get an explanation for each. The service was well coordinated and the staff had great attention to detail. Each of the 28 courses was creative and beautifully presented. We were very happy with the diversity of flavors and textures. Hopefully we will be able to get a reservation to return next year to try a different menu.

Disfrutar was founded by three chefs from the legendary El Bulli, and its name — Disfrutar, “to enjoy” — perfectly captures its philosophy. Here, the experience goes far beyond flavour: it becomes an immersion into time, memory, and emotion. In 2024, Disfrutar was awarded three Michelin stars and crowned The World’s Best Restaurant, quickly becoming one of the defining symbols of contemporary Spanish gastronomy. I saved this place — the world’s No.1 — as the final stop of my Europe trip. And to be honest, while the concept and format are fascinating, the theatrics often outweighed the actual flavours for me personally. Some dishes were genuinely delicious, but others leaned too heavily into showmanship at the expense of balance. Their caviar, in particular, consistently carried a strange brininess. Take Pachino: the fried bread is crisp and airy, soft and slightly sweet inside — yet the overly fishy caviar disrupts the entire bite. Similarly, Amaranth Coral opens with a pleasant seaweed aroma, but the saltiness and fishiness become overwhelming. That said, Disfrutar also presents plenty of dishes that are both tasty and distinctive: Mushroom Leaf Crisp on the bite with the depth of a concentrated mushroom broth. Macaroni alla Carbonara A playful reinterpretation featuring transparent pasta. Salty, aromatic, and full of cheese, cream, and ham flavours. The biggest surprise was Calçotada — sweet, crisp, almost like an elevated Spanish version of scallions with dipping sauce. The warm broth is savoury and comforting. The dessert courses were the true highlight of the meal. Each dish carried its own charm, not only delicious but delightfully imaginative. Cucumber A refreshing sorbet that tastes like sugared cucumber, with a hint of ginger in the ice. The Homemade Cider deserves special mention — intensely apple-forward, sweet and tangy. Most unique of all was the Black Apple, showcasing apples preserved under vacuum at different stages. The flavour is gently acidic with a lingering sweetness, soft and delicate — a genuinely memorable experience. Despite its imperfections, and although Disfrutar is not the kind of restaurant I would choose purely for flavour, its originality and ambition deserve real respect. If you believe that dining is about more than just taste, Disfrutar offers an experience worth seeking out. It’s the kind of restaurant you may only visit once, yet continue to reflect on long after the meal ends. “Art is not what you see, but what you make others see.”

We did the special Live table experience and it was amazing. The service could've been better though, no one really smiled or engaged with us much apart from the dish explanation, and the guy that was explaining the dishes had pretty bad pronunciation and we couldn't understand most of what he said the dishes had. It's one of those situations when they're not speaking for you to hear what they're saying, they just wanted to say it. The live table experience's appeal is that you have a private room with the chefs and waiters and the finale experience with the desers is from another world, really well done!

Disappointing. Had very high expectations but unfortunately the food didn't deliver. We choose the old menu, I'm not sure if it's still there to that day.. Except 2 dishes that were excellent, the Yolk and the Bun with the caviar that was one of the best bites i had in my life, the rest was nothing special. You feel so full half way down and it's just too much food they have to reduce the number of courses. The atmosphere is Cosy and very nice. The level of service is Top notch can't get better than that.

Seems to be one of those places where you don't want to meet your hero again. We had an extraordinary time due the first visit, but for this second tour we tried the 'new menu' as opposed to the classic and felt this story fell apart. We started with Disfrutar style dishes then halfway through with the Panchino the oil temperature wasn't quite enough for the outer surface of the bun so it was slightly greasy. The banana flavour from the Feijoa was too potent, lacking harmony. From here onwards, other then the golden egg dish which is their take on a Singaporean curry crab dish, there weren't any more surprises. For drinks, it was too humid for me to have wine so I ordered a mocktails and the Citrus option was very refreshing to have with the meal, acting like a pallet cleanser along the way. On service, I was disappointed they set on to our table the coulant and ice cream dish for my partner when the ice cream was partially melted and almost slid off the plate as the waiter set the plate down. Another personal experience I had was an annoying fly that I kept buzzing my table and I kept swatting during the later half of the meal. Not sure if the staff could have done something about that, otherwise the dishes arrived at a good pace never feeling rushed or too delayed.

28-course lunch, and most of the courses were fun and delicious. It took 5 hours for our group to finish, which sounds comically long, but I was never bored and found the portion ultimately perfect. Most service was excellent, but service for the wine pairing was infuriatingly frustrating. There wasn't a single course where the sommelier told us how many courses the wine paired with, so for most of the wines, we would either finish the wine before some of its intended pairings came out, or still had not tried it when it was time to move on to the next wine. I asked the somm many times but he never told us up-front. One time I asked him and he walked away and shouted an answer with his back to me. Another time I got out of my seat to find him because he didn't answer when I'd asked; another staff member asked if I needed help, so I let him know the question, and he gave me the wrong answer. Per person costs: lunch 315 euros, wine pairing 170 euros, water was 4.10 euros per bottle, and a 10% charge was added to everything.

Disfrutar is easily the most inventive restaurant I’ve been to — visually stunning and full of playful, unexpected techniques. However, the creativity often came at the cost of flavor. Many dishes felt like reimagined classics (e.g., puff pastry made from…rice papers) that looked super interesting but didn’t taste as good nor hold it shapes as well as a regular puff pastry you’d find in a corner shop. Service was excellent, but overall, the experience was more about novelty than deliciousness. Overall, the quality of the food is more or less the same as some 1 star restaurants I’ve dined in, so it’s not inedible. Left feeling like I’d just gone to a food museum than an actual restaurant. Not worth the 1 year wait for a table! If you want good food, go to Cocina Hermanos Torres or ELL Cellar.

Italian restaurant
BENZiNA is an Italian restaurant located in the vibrant Sant Antoni district of Barcelona. The eatery boasts an industrial-style ambiance with a touch of New York flair, offering a unique dining experience. The menu features regional Roman cuisine, including antipasti, fresh pasta made in-house, and a selection of meat and seafood dishes.
One of the best Italian spots in Barcelona! Benzina is a cozy, beautifully designed restaurant that instantly makes you feel at home. The food is exceptional, classic Italian dishes with creative twists, made with top quality ingredients. Every plate is a hit, but the Carbonara is my absolute favorite! What truly sets this place apart is the amazing staff. Chiara is an absolute gem, warm, always smiling, and incredibly helpful with great recommendations. The owner, Badr, is often around, making everyone feel like family with his generosity (don’t be surprised if you’re treated to a glass of Cava or dessert!). A must, visit every time I’m in Barcelona, delicious food, great vibes, and wonderful people.

Had the best time here! First and foremost, our server Hector was not only funny but so open, helpful, kind, and beyond welcoming. He shared some of his story with us, answered questions we had, and was helpful in selecting what to eat. (I’ve attached various photos of the great food! Not pictured: the eggplant appetizer which, I admit, is one of the more odd things I’ve had, but wonderfully so! I suggest it a million times over, it was an eggplant confit with a Parmesan ice cream! We also had the calamari which was the right amount of salty and crunchy! Tens across the board!) Entrees didn’t disappoint and dessert was a perfect end to a perfect dinner service. As I find is fairly typical with EU restaurants, they were more than cautious about my nut allergy—very attentive and thorough.

absolutely LOVED this restaurant for its exceptional hospitality, delicious food, and industrial chic yet warm vibe. I have a severe food allergy, and they were so kind about accommodating it/explaining the menu. 10/10 would recommend and if I lived in Barcelona, I’d be back every week.

Finally tried Benzina, and honestly, I left disappointed. 😕 We ordered the lobster linguine and pork ragù, but both dishes were surprisingly bland — barely any flavor at all, which felt so strange! We even had to ask for salt, pepper, and cheese to try to salvage it, but it still didn’t live up to the hype (or the high price). Maybe their not known for their pasta? But idk it was strange… On the bright side, we did enjoy the tuna appetizer, the wine, and the ambiance, which were lovely. But overall, I’d say save your money and grab your pasta fix next door at Doppietta — chef’s kiss, their pasta was 🤌🏽🤌🏽🤌🏽.

This is by far the best restaurant I’ve been to in Barcelona. The vibe and interior are absolutely stunning and create a fantastic atmosphere. The staff was incredibly friendly, and the service was outstanding. As for the food — it exceeded all my expectations, especially considering the reasonable prices. The braised beef cheek was absolutely delicious: tender, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. Everything was just right. I would recommend this place to everyone!

A really cozy Italian restaurant with friendly service and great food. To start, we had the berenjena confitada, crudo de pez limón, and steak tartare, followed by the carbonara and the linguine with lobster. Overall, everything was very good, the starters might have even been the highlight. The only downside was the lobster linguine, which wasn’t our favorite since the strong cardamom flavor overpowered the whole dish.
Bruno F — Google review
Lovely vibe and great music. Staff are friendly and caring. The seabass crudo with cucumber gazpacho caviar and avocado was fantastic. Carbonara was ok, lacking in salt. Focaccia for the table could’ve been warm and fresher. Recommended rose was great but all other drinks were disappointing: I asked for a mezcal margarita and it was not good, I saw the bartender add juice from a bottle so not fresh lemons? The limoncello sent free at with the bill was a nice touch but not good to drink at all. I will definitely go back here for the vibe and some of the food though.

Restaurant
Cañete is a delightful culinary gem nestled just steps away from the iconic Liceu opera house in Barcelona. This vibrant tapas restaurant boasts a polished ambiance, where guests can savor classic dishes like seafood paella and duck cannelloni while enjoying local wines. The long bar offers an enticing view of the kitchen, leading to an intimate communal tasting table that seats 20.
Hands down...one of the top meals of my life. We were in the area, had the restaurant saved from a recommendation, and it did not disappoint. When we arrived...we were told there was a little bit of a wait (maybe 10 minutes?)...were asked if we wanted a drink while we waited (thought we would end up paying for them...the restaurant picked up the tab! A great touch.). We were seated at the bar once two seats became available. Had the best time watching the food be prepared, interacting with our waiter, and just enjoying the atmosphere around us. Onto the food...wow. I can NOT say enough. We picked half a dozen small items to try over the next hour or so...and topped it off with a delicious dessert. The pictures do not do the food justice. We will not forget about this meal. It was an experience. Thank you to everyone at Cañete!

Beautifully warm and charming restaurant. We had a lovely table in the back (it became a bit too noisy and cramped when a larger table was squeezed in behind us. We enjoyed an exceptional meal. The servers were friendly and helpful. The favorite dishes were the squid sandwich, steak tartare, features sea bass, and the steak foie gras. You must save room for the dessert! Chocolate coulant and rum baba was divine. The only hiccup is, we didn’t love the ox tail as it tasted like pork and after returning to hotel, after translating our receipt, we found that the server misunderstood our English and ordered us the suckling pig instead. We did not enjoy this dish. Otherwise, we recommend this restaurant and consider it to be one of the best meals we had!

This was arguably the best meal I’ve ever had in my life 🙌 Now I’m a food snob who has visited many Michelin restaurants, Canete’s ‘quality-affordability-vibe’ combo made it to the top of my list and was a perfect combo for an amazing night for our group! As soon as you walk in, you’re immersed in a lively atmosphere and packed house. You’ll likely be walked through the kitchen where the magic happens to a side room of tables squished together for an intimate evening. A total of 8 diners helped us try the entire menu and a ton of epic wine. Some highlights and must items to order below: - Aged Beef Steak with Foie & Truffle Sauce is a must and created an orgasm in your mouth! - Suckling Iberian Pig melted in your mouth - Fried cordoba-style aubergines in sugar cane honey — this was a sleeper, did not expect eggplant to be this delicious the way it was prepared! Highly recommend - we reordered 3x Everything on the menu comes small portion and perfect for sharing! Our server was an absolute beauty (see video) and we had a ton of fun with him. Added to the amazing atmosphere and fun vibes of the place. This is a no frills, epic food, fun casual vibe type of joint. Don’t expect comfortable seating with beautiful washrooms. You’ll be nice and tight next to another group of diners, but mark my words you will experience the best meal of your life!!!

This place had such great reviews that perhaps my expectations were set too high. As we arrived, there was even a line of people waiting to enter the establishment. We had a reservation and were promptly seated. Though everything else took quite a long time. Most of the dishes we had didn't feel too special nor did it taste exceptional. My top recommendation is the callos which was really good. I also liked the fried eggplant that was quite sweet. We also had the lobster croquette which I wasn't able to photograph, that was good, too. But the fried shrimp, razor clams, and meatballs were just alright. As we were having lunch, even more people came to make reservations and we were just wondering why. Perhaps we were the ones missing the point of the restaurant? We were seated in a place that was quite cramped since the restaurant is on the smaller side. Food took a bit longer too as we felt the staff were so busy and there were not enough of them for the amount of people dining there. On a good note, my mom who lifted her wine glass had it shatter all of a sudden, and the staff did not charge us. I felt grateful for that.

Canete: Worth Every Minute of the Wait After checking in at Casa Teva and finding my room wouldn't be ready until 3pm, I made what turned out to be one of the best spontaneous decisions of my Barcelona trip: joining the queue at Canete at 12:50pm. This was my third attempt to eat here over the years—the previous two times I couldn't get a table. The consensus about this place is absolutely right—get a reservation. But if you can't, there's hope for walk-ins willing to wait. After the reserved guests were seated, we snagged two counter seats, which turned out to be the perfect vantage point to watch the kitchen's practiced choreography. Our server Lena was a revelation—guiding us through the menu with excellent recommendations, humor, and a smile that made us feel like regulars from the first order. The draft beer I ordered was the perfect companion throughout, cutting through the richness and cleansing the palate between dishes. We worked our way through a greatest-hits list of Catalan and Galician specialties: The toasted flatbread with tomato set the tone—simple, perfect, the kind of dish that reminds you why Spanish cooking doesn't need to show off. The lobster croquette lived up to its mysterious billing (that secret ingredient really does make a difference), while the hand-cut bellota cured ham justified every euro of its half portion. The squid sandwich was a masterclass in texture, but it was the Galician baby scallops with bellota ham that stopped conversation mid-bite. The fresh Galician razor clams were sweet and briny, followed by the fried Cordoba-style aubergine drizzled in sugar cane honey—a sweet-savory revelation. Fried anchovy with olive oil proved that the simplest preparations often sing loudest, while the deboned red mullet with pork showed off the kitchen's technical prowess without losing soul. We finished with crema Catalana (and yes, I was warned: do NOT call it flan unless you're looking for trouble). Torched to crackling perfection, it was the only possible ending. The verdict? Everything you've read about Canete is true. Third time's the charm—just get there early, be patient, and prepare for tapas that live up to the hype, with service that makes the experience even better.

Amazing food and the servers are very knowledgeable. We managed to get a table 2h after going to the restaurant to leave our names. The food is excellent — you must try their beef and foie gras. It is to die for. The squid sandwich was very yummy too. We tried many top restaurants in barcelona and this was our favourite

This tapas place came highly recommended by a close friend, so I booked it immediately with very high expectations — and to be fair, most of the dishes were genuinely delicious. Unfortunately, I ended up with food poisoning right after the meal and was sick for several days. Looking back, it was almost certainly the razor clam. That said, the rest of the food was so good that I still find myself wanting to recommend this place. Toasted Flatbread With Tomato ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A great starter — crispy bread topped with a bright, sweet–tart tomato flavour. Squid Sandwich ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Light garlic aroma, incredibly soft bread, and squid that’s crisp, tender, and full of umami. One portion is definitely not enough. Razor Clam ⭐️ Sweet and flavourful, but with a strong fishiness — likely because it wasn’t fresh. Cañete-style Shrimp in Garlic ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Rich garlicky oil, bouncy shrimp. The only downside is that the portion is quite small. Deboned Iberian Pork ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A thick, sticky sauce coats the Iberian pork beautifully. The combination of tender meat and crunchy cartilage gives great texture. Aged Beef Steak ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Cooked between medium-rare and medium. Soft beef with rich foie gras — slightly heavy on its own, but excellent together. Tiramisu ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Very enjoyable. Light coffee flavour, rich creaminess, and only a hint of alcohol. The restaurant is small and a bit crowded, but the tables are clean and the lighting and service are both good. The food poisoning was likely an unlucky one-off — my friend has been multiple times without any issues, and I somehow got “lucky” on my first visit. If you’re concerned, maybe skip the razor clams, but overall I would still recommend this place. Total: €135.9 Overall Rating: 7/10

Tapas restaurant
Cal Pep is a bustling tapas bar located in the trendy El Born district of Barcelona. Since its opening in 1989, it has become a beloved classic, attracting both locals and tourists. The restaurant offers a vibrant atmosphere with exposed brick walls and counter seating. Guests can enjoy an array of Mediterranean dishes made with fresh seasonal ingredients, including seafood, fish, meat, and vegetables.
Though there was as a bit of a wait as it was busy spot to eat, it was worth it. The experience was incredible. We sat in the entry/bar area which provided a view of the chef's preparing the food. The service staff were fun and friendly. The food was spectacular. Get everything! 😂🤤

Wow what a phenomenal experience if it's your first time coming to Barcelona or if you're a local looking for a good food Cal Pep is the one. The quality of the food is superb there's so much variety with a lot of the dishes, since there's no menu everything is a pleasant surprise. The chefs are very skilful as each dish tastes lovely with the Catalan style. The staff were very friendly and provided good service. The ambiance is the right balance. Easy 10/10

I’m always a little anxious when I try a place with the level of renown of Cal Pep for the first time. Will it really live up to the reputation? Will the crowd ruin the experience? Will the staff betray a whiff of a restaurant that is buckling under the weight of expectations? Nothing could be farther from the truth here. This is an excellent restaurant. The service is dialed in; attentive, fast and friendly. The dishes you have heard about are as good as you are expecting. It’s not that hard to get a reservation, really. The prices are reasonable! Sometimes a restaurant is exactly as good as you’ve heard, and you get it immediately. This is a place like that. Don’t miss it!

They didn’t provide a menu for some reason, which was a bit unusual. The food was salty, but overall very tasty and enjoyable. Our server, Peter, was incredibly friendly, humorous, and attentive — truly an outstanding staff member. The iron gate at the entrance opened exactly at 7:30 PM, and many people were already waiting in line beforehand. The house wine was affordable and paired very well with the dishes. The place filled up quickly, and soon there were people waiting inside as well. Overall, it was a lively and memorable dining experience.

Suculent is a unique dining spot in the El Raval area that offers a blend of Spanish meat and fish dishes with a creative twist. The restaurant features two distinct experiences - La Taberna del Suculent, where guests can enjoy expertly prepared tapas at the bar counter, and a sit-down restaurant serving traditional, high-quality dishes. Known for its offal recipes elevated to exquisite culinary creations, Suculent is a haven for meat enthusiasts.
Best meal we have had in a while. Lovely service! We went for classic with pairing, and it’s excellent. The prawn dish and strawberry dessert went extremely well with the wine. If you’re visiting. You have to try! Would come back for the full menu.

We had an absolutely incredible experience at Suculent. I’ve eaten at a lot of great restaurants, but this was easily one of the top dining experiences I’ve ever had. We did the tasting menu with the wine pairing, and every single dish was spot-on perfect. The pairings worked beautifully and really elevated the whole meal. What really made the night, though, was our server. I feel terrible because I can’t remember his name (it started with an A, he’s from South America and has been in Spain for 2 years), but he was phenomenal. His service was flawless and his personality added so much to the evening. He was perfectly fluent in English, but also took the time to help us practice our Spanish, which we really appreciated. He also gave us thoughtful recommendations on how to best enjoy each dish, from which cutlery to use to little tips on how to get the most out of the flavors. It made the experience feel even more personal and memorable. On top of all that, the price was very reasonable for the quality of food, wine, and service, especially when compared to North American standards, where you’d easily pay much more for something of this caliber. I’d recommend Succulent to anyone visiting Barcelona.

We were a group of 6 and celebrated our mother's retirement and wanted to chose something special. We opted for "Suculent" tasting menu and all of us were savouring each bite. Each and one of us were delighted by each dish. My favourites were cuttlefish with almond mild, beetroot with smoked eel, scallop and cava sauce. Jordy was our server and was personable, attentive and made us feel comfortable throughout the meal. The wine recommendations were spot on! We really enjoyed the rustic and relaxed atmosphere of the restaurant. It was a great experience and everyone was happy with absolutely everything. 10/10

We opted for "The Classics" tasting menu and were impressed by each and every dish -- especially the duck croquette, red prawn, and steak tartare. The brie and vanilla cheesecake completely blown us away and was probably the best cheesecake we've ever had.

Suculent in Barcelona is where Chef Tonet Romero brings tradition and creativity together beautifully. Among many memorable dishes, three truly stood out: • Beetroot with beurre blanc sauce, smoked eel, tarragon oil – an intense, layered flavor with a perfect balance of sweetness and smokiness. • Shrimp “taco” nasturtium leaf – light, refreshing, and a brilliant touch of creativity. • Angus beef, pickled mustard seeds, mashed celeriac – slow-cooked until it melts effortlessly in the mouth. A must-visit for anyone looking to experience Barcelona’s most refined and soulful flavors.
