This place is legit! It was recommended by a local and ended up being our first authentic Catalan experience on our trip.
First of all, they were accommodating for my wife’s Celiac (gluten allergy) which is already a plus for us. The servers were badass guys that you could tell have been in the restaurant business a long time. Also, the kitchen was right there to see.
We ordered the green beans, garlic shrimp, and paella. The green bean salad was a bit of a surprise being that it was a cold salad with olive oil, pine nuts, and Parmesan, but it worked great and was delicious. The garlic shrimp was delicious too, but the Paella was the star. It was a more Catalan style Paella, but was so delicious. The sauce was like a gravy that we couldn’t get enough of. It’s the best Paella we’ve had in Barcelona. Also, they had gluten free bread for my wife!
On to dessert, the crème brûlée was gluten free and my wife loved it. I got this apple dessert which was sliced apple with like carmelized sugar, vanilla ice cream, and his crisp cookie. Other than the gelato i had in Italy, this was the best dessert of my vacation. I would definitely come here again and would recommend it to everyone!
