- the chef did not train it‘s staff. They did not give the impression they have experienced the food themselves. - we were sitting at a table where cheese platters were stapled up behind my wife, staring at a busy hallway. Far from a relaxed fine dining feel. - when offered apperitives, my wife asked: can you recommend me something? and the answer was: we have everything, followed by an inpatient look / instead of recommending solutions. - the food itself had some michelin vibes, but rather from 1995. Nothing made a difference. The crockery was just pmain plates and silver cutlery - nothing much that expressed the story of the dishes. - the staff did not look concept-unified. - the food - somewhat nicely decorated, tasted like cruise ship dinner (nicely arranged but cooled for masses). all over, neither the creaticity, nor the uniqueness of the staff, nor the food convinced us. the highlight was the bottle of red wine.

everything was perfect.
4.0
Their service was terrible because they were so slow, they serve 7 or 8 amuse bouche and I ate and I waited more than 15 minutes for other amouse bouche, they serve same sauce for 2 main dishes. Ambience was so noisy.

Despite being a consistent Michelin-starred restaurant, the food and service did not live up to expectations. set too high?

A Must 🤩

Michelin in Span is very authentic very heavy food, lots of fat unbalanced flavors. Usually it's a great fortunate to find a place you want to return. And of course strange things during booking aimed to steel card details.

Wonderful restaurant. Each course is prepared and served with care. Loved the wine pairings as well. Highly recommend.

Service is good but the food doesn’t stand for its price and far from Michelin star level

We absolutely loved dining here for my wife’s birthday. The staff was so attentive, with the courses and wine flowing. We definitely will return next year.

Refined and relaxed decor, professional and friendly staff, some amazing gastronomic dishes, well-matched wine pairings for the various tasting menus, and reasonably priced for the total experience.

this is obviously a very high end place, however I felt a bit the bells and whistles overcame the substance. while the service was definitely nothing short of amazing, the food itself felt a bit uninspired at times. sure, it looked like a piece of art, it just didn't taste as good as some other much simpler establishment.

The comfortable sofa and the very nice and friendly waiters and a very good food !

After 11 cities of exceptional dining across Spain, we chose Caelis to cap our gastronomical Journey. Despite its Michelin star and €200+ per person price tag, it was our most disappointing meal of the entire trip. While the service was impeccable and ambiance sophisticated, the food and wine selections fell surprisingly short. We've dined at numerous Michelin-starred establishments throughout our adventure, all delivering memorable experiences. Caelis, however, couldn't even match non-starred gems like Flamma in Valladolid, where culinary execution and flavor profiles far exceeded what we encountered at Caelis. For a restaurant of this caliber and cost, we expected dishes that would rival or surpass our previous stops. Instead, we left feeling that Michelin star reflects past glories rather than current performance. The stark contracts between elegant setting and lackluster cuisine made the experience all the more disappointing. I'd recommend exploring other options in Barcelona.

We had a wonderful experience at Caelis! My husband, daughter, and I ate at the bar, which I highly recommend as you can see the skill and care that goes into each and every dish on the Celebration Menu.

Staff is attentful. Food is okay, but not on a level that you should expect from a Michelin rated reataurant. 70 minutes from being seated to paying the check is too fast.

It was an amazing menu. The wine pairing showed us wines that we have never experienced before. And for sure the desserts were great as well. Many thanks to the whole team. Happy to come back on our next stay in Barcelona!

I really enjoyed Caelis. The food was certainly a standard worthy of a Michelin star, and the presentation was flawless. However, I found it lacking slightly in innovation, and there wasn’t really anything new that I hadn’t tried before. The service was very attentive most of the time, and all of our questions were answered knowledgeably. All in all, we had a lovely evening, and left full and satisfied.

Nice meal
4.5
Food was good, but by Michelin star standards it felt like they were barely trying. Probably the worst experience I've had at a Michelin star restaurant, might be in danger of a downgrade pretty soon

+2The food was good but can’t feel WOW after eating it. The service was way toooooooo polite to feel the warm of people.

Advise that the sparkling wine on arrival is charged. €14 per glass. Bone in my fish, it happens...but not even acknowledged. No wine by the glass offered.

Criminally underrated! Technique and stye are absolutely 2 star quality. The lunch premier 4 course menu was fantastic, and the beet root gazpacho was a religious experience. 10/10 would recommend without hesitation.

For so many highly rated restaurants today, finding wait staff that can live up to their Michelin star can be challenging. Luckily, the Som and maître d’ more than made up for a young and inexperienced waiter and we ended up having a great meal. The food presentation and preparation were fabulous and the ambiance was sophisticated yet comfortable. The Som did a great job with the wine pairing option and we discovered some very interesting Spanish wines. We will be back!

The service and ambiance was great. The $65 lunch menu was good but it was a little too experimental for my group. I enjoyed it personally but 2/3 in the group did not.
