One of Barcelona's classics, Jean Louis Neichel manages to combine Mediterranean tradition with French innovation, and he does so with great style. Very professional service and excellent deserts.
Restaurant Hispania
Barcelona's most prestigious establishments. Also, it is quite a relief to find a relatively normal, if high-class, restaurant, serving good quality dishes with normal names. Run by two sisters who transformed a typical road-side bar into what is now considered to be one of Spain's finest restaurants serving typical Catalan food.
Restaurant El Raco d´en Freixa
if you want to try one of Barcelona's elite establishments, this is probably the best as far as the price:quality ratio is concerned. Freixa's speciality is blending modern cooking techniques with traditional Catalan cooking, and the result is a selection of marvellous tastes and inventions.
