It is not possible to leave here hungry, after 14 plates we were all stuffed. The fish, fowl, and pork were all fantastic.

A wonderful and very delicious degustation menu experience, with a wonderful progression of flavours, outstanding matching wines, and flawless service. The entrance is quite dramatic with a fabulous jelly fish light installation inside the stairwell as you walk up to the restaurant, which foreshadows the unique experience that awaits.

Appetizer and starter were super good and refreshing. Main courses are over seasoned. I was disappointed a bit given its entree were too salty for me.

The restaurant interior is really nice. The food was just ok, it didn’t have the wow factor though. The service felt very rushed, this is the fastest set meal I’ve had in any Michelin restaurant.

Ambiance: 4/5
Service: 3/5
Food: 4/5

Came here for lunch, mainly seafood in their seasonal menu but there was lamb leg too! Overall, very flavourful dishes and I understand the concept. Decent priced as well so very worth it!! A gem in BCN 🇪🇸 must try if you’re in the city.

An absolute must! The restaurant is actually on the 1st floor of an apartment building, so it feels like you are going to visit friends. The atmosphere is great and very cosy. The food is great! One of the dishes was named "Taste of the sea" and it really tasted like the sea - the breeze, the salt, the fish...absolutely amazing! Good wine selection and a very enjoyable evening. Will be coming again...and again...and again...Thank you for a fantastic time!

Can't wait to come here again. The food was absolutely delicious, the portions were perfect and the decor was a magnificent contrast to the original decor of the place.
There are two restaurants in the space, both share the same kitchen, different menus.

We went for their lunch for my mums birthday.

First impression is the interior and the design which is impressive almost tending to be a bit quirky, but I see what they’re trying to do in regards to creating the resemblance to a fish.

The party of four all went for the large tasting menu with wine pairing. After having started with the best cava I’ve tasted.

What was a draw back and also the reason I’m giving four stars is, that the food was tasty, interesting and beautifully crafted and served, the lack of something crunchy or with a bit more texture and “bite” so to speak, was lacking. In other words the wood was too “soft” to our taste, which there was a concensus about.

It was an interesting experience with loads of tastes and good service, but for a 5* review at this price point from my view, something at the food and the texture was missing.
