Top 4 Gluten-Free Spots to Explore in Dreta de l'Eixample, Barcelona

Poorly prepared, burnt, tough, flavorless food... After a tiring day at work, we chose this restaurant because two of us were celiac, and it was after 4:00 p.m. The service was decent but not excessive; the atmosphere was pleasant, although there was no air conditioning, just a fan. The worst part was the food: everything "fifth range," including pizzas and tacos, and even the salads. And the worst part was that the final warm-up was overcooked: burnt pizza, hard tacos,... We didn't know how to react at the time, surely due to fatigue, the need for gluten-free food, and the time, but we should have rejected the meal or left. The iced coffee came with a mini ice cube. A disaster. First and last time we spent almost 100 euros in a place that boasts of being "natural." Yuck!

Review: Honest Greens, Barcelona – A Revelation in Every Bite I walked into Honest Greens with low expectations and a touch of skepticism— a gluten-free, vegetable-forward restaurant in the heart of Barcelona? It sounded more like a compromise than a craving. I was wrong. From the very first bite, Honest Greens didn’t just exceed expectations— it redefined them. Every ingredient felt alive, as if it had been plucked from the earth only hours before. The vegetables were vibrant, seasonal, and impossibly fresh. The seasoning? Thoughtful. Subtle. Intelligent. Each dish carried a quiet confidence—never trying too hard, because it didn’t need to. This was food with soul. Clean but rich. Simple but deep. Not a single element overwhelmed— everything worked in harmony, letting the natural flavors sing. I didn’t miss the gluten. I didn’t miss the meat. What I did miss was a second stomach. Because once you start tasting food like this— food that feels both nourishing and indulgent— you don’t want to stop. Honest Greens is proof that great cooking isn’t about complexity, but about integrity— about letting ingredients speak for themselves with a little help from chefs who clearly care. Would I go back? Absolutely. Would I recommend it? Without hesitation. Come hungry. Come curious. And leave, like I did, with a full belly and a humbled heart. Rating: 5/5 — Superb. Clean. Unforgettable.

We had an excellent meal with delicious food and drinks, couldn’t recommend more. The experience was exceptional thanks to our server, Oscar - he was friendly and attentive, and very helpfully recommended a range of coeliac friendly options on the menu.

I went with some friends after we were at Spa Slow and I was pleasantly surprised. We had a tasting menu and everything was delicious. I have few photos precisely because I didn't remember to take them as I focused more on eating. The cauliflower, the gyozas, the pad thai, the makis... Everything was really good. The dessert too. A detail that I really liked is that one of us has celiac disease, so they offered her another dessert, but also very elaborate. In short, we had a great dinner, the place is very nice and the service was correct. Recommended.

My husband had the best French onion soup he’s ever had. They had mostly gluten-free options naturally. The food here has been some of the best I’ve had in Spain. The service was amazing and they were very detail oriented when they presented the food I would highly recommend!
