The best meal we’ve had in Barcelona. I highly recommend the eggplant appetizer and the Black Volcano rice. And the cheesecake with crumbled. Superb!

This is our favourite restaurant when we visit Barcelona every year. We usually eat there twice! The menu is so varied, and the food so delicious. The costillar iberico and the volcan d’arroz are particularly recommended. It is the highlight of our stay here on our way home from a long holiday in Spain. The staff recognize us even though they only see us once a year, with warm greetings and hugs, lovely people.

Nadia was an excellent host, bartender and server! She was very knowledgeable, kind and helpful. The food was amazing! Our second time here for dinner from the US. They had some of the same dishes and new ones. We highly recommend the ceviche, eggplant and Iberian ribs.

Please don’t be tricked with the good reviews. This place serves barely eatable, greasy and over salty (to hide not fresh ingredients) food with a lot of different kinds of mayonnaise (again, to hide bad ingredients). The best thing you can do for your liver and stomach is to avoid this place which is also located in specific area you don’t want to go as a tourist.

Very memorable meal in Florence. You are eating inside a piece of history with ancient frescoes surrounding you and Roman ruins on the first floor. The food was delicious and very high quality. You are inside a wine shop so the options were excellent and represented the region well. I highly recommend.

The menu has a lot of Catalan standards, yet all with a modern twist and presented beautifully. My husband had grilled octopus and I had the black rice volcano. We shared a burrata and tomato starter. The decor is creative and fun and tables are located to create intimate spaces even though this is a small restaurant. And, we were surprised that everything was quite reasonably priced for such quality.

Nice restaurant in strange location. I have been there 7 years ago so the district completely changed.

The first time I came to Cera 23 was 7 years ago and I had to come back again in 2025. My absolute favorite foie gras ravioli were on the menu and tasted as delicious as I remembered. Lovely place, amazing service, fantastic food.
