Food was average to poor. Beer was blend and had no bubbles. It tasted like a beer that was standing to long on the table. We gave it back. They didn't ask why we gave it back. I have eaten in many restaurants in Barcelona and this is far from good. White wine Alberino was sour, cheap quality.

We have been to El Chigre a few times and truly consider it our happy place. Found coincidentally wandering through the streets of Barcelona almost 10 years ago, El Chigre never stopped delivering great food by a small family-like team. We have our favorites from the menu, though every dish is beautifully thought through and executed. Thank you

Excellent food, inventive dishes and everything tasted so fresh. The service however felt rushed and we were cramped on to the bar, which we didn't expect. Next time we will request a table and reserve earlier so not to be racing against the clock. But we will return, because the food was delicious.

I visited twice and can tell that the food and service are in consistent. The first time the black rice was delicious and had crispy edges the way paella should have. The second time the black rice was bland and no crispy edges. The push the daily fish but it’s not prepared in a tasty way. You have to ask to have it cleaned or else they won’t bother to do it.

El Chigre is absolutely our most favorite restaurant in Barcelona. The food is incredibly delicious from the stuffed dates to clams to steak. It’s so good we can’t wait to come back again. The service is fabulous, warm and friendly
