Absolutely loved Cera 23. Could not recommend it enough. We came here for Valentine’s Day and were super lucky to get a spot. The ambiance is top tier intimate, warm, and the service was genuinely amazing, attentive without being intrusive. For me the menu is literally what made it even more perfect. It was perfectly curated not overwhelming, just the right amount of options. I had the steak and my partner had the seafood (squid), and both were aaaa-maaaazing. If you’re in Barcelona, this is a must-see. The location might feel and look a little sketchy at first, but the moment you step inside, you completely forget about it. 10/10. Would absolutely come back.

The food was nice and enjoyable, though not particularly memorable. The service really stood out — attentive, friendly, and professional throughout the visit. Inside, the atmosphere was pleasant and well designed, making it a comfortable place to dine. The surrounding neighborhood, however, wasn’t especially appealing and slightly took away from the overall experience.

The food and drinks were excellent. The Back to Galicia drink with gin was amazing, between the four of us we ordered three. We had the pork ribs, the volcano rice, the grilled octopus and the eggplant all were delicious. Thank you for a wonderful evening.

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.
