9/10Lovely venue, great staff, good food. Unfortunately a little salty for me, too much soy, lacking in vegetarian options but we had two fussy teens who weren’t keen on the options. If you are lucky enough to not have fussy eaters (or dietary challenges) I would recommend it.

10/10The food was very good, and the size of the dishes was larger than I had expected.. we were 2 and we ordered 4 medium sized dishes and it was perfect. Service was great as well as the waiters helped us with the menu

10/10There were 5 in our family. It was the perfect spot! Yummy food (not the same old) and nice small restaurant with very helpful and attentive staff. We’d go back for sure!

9.5/10This was hands down the best meal I had on my whole 2 week vacation. I cannot recommend this place enough. I had the stuffed salmon and it was incredible. The flavours came together in such an amazing way that I will be thinking about this meal for years to come. It’s a shame that this is our last night in Barcelona as I would definitely have come back here tomorrow to try some more of the items on their menu. The presentation was also excellent. Kudos to the chef!

10/10Only had a few hours in Barcelona and found this little gem through google maps. Read the reviews, and checked out the menu on their website and decided to take a chance. We were not disappointed. A very nice cosy restaurant with nice decor, very attentive staff, English speaking when needed and food was good quality, tasty and nice portions. It’s a little bit away from the tourist spots which made for a more authentic experience. Will come again.

10/10I love this restaurant! I first visited in 2013 and when I returned to Barcelona this year, I couldn’t wait to eat there again. Even though I was not feeling well on the day I visited, I didn’t want to miss out. The staff were friendly and patient with me and I still very much enjoyed the food. The ambiance is lovely; a relaxed and charming restaurant in a side-street of the gothic quarter, with some of the best food I have ever eaten. I will be back again next time I’m in Barcelona, hopefully in better health :)

10/10Gorgeous little restaurant hidden away in the old town. Food was excellent and a bit different. We shared a salad, ham pear mozzarella and rocket to start. I had salmon with Gorgonzola and tomato jam, my husband tuna with oriental veg. Would definitely recommend and staff were lovely. English spoken.

10/10Superb food - I had the zucchini carpaccio and the grilled sea bass; my partner the cod. Great wine, and friendly, attentive service in a gem of a setting.

8.5/10Really recommendable. Very nice nice and originally decorated restaurant. Few but really tasty options in the menu. Just didn’t like the “cheesecake” desert,

About this restaurant
El Salón restaurant has an 80's England themed environment with an elegant touch. Its cuisine, however, is based on Catalonia's best seasonal cooking. Dare to discover it in the heart of Barcelona's Barri Gòtic. You'll be able to notice the high quality of ingredients while savoring the pumpkin Ravioli in Parmesan sauce, duck Magret or Codfish au gratin with Hollandaise sauce. Chocolate Coulant with vanilla ice cream or the traditional Crema Catalana are perfect desserts for such exquisite meals. El Salón's cellar and its extensive wine list will be the ideal match for the whole gastronomic journey. If weather allows you, make sure to enjoy El Salon's terrace right at the Traginers Plaza, a magical spot including a Roman wall and great sights. What are you waiting for to live this splendid experience?
