My wife and I have been in Europe (Portugal and Spain) for a week. This was, by far, the best meal we have had this week. Flavor and quality of the food was excellent.

The dishes were all excellent, well presented with a twist of originality in the flavours. I loved the relaxed setting, with smooth jazz music playing in the background. Friendly service, very reasonable prices for the quality, I think I found one of my new favourite restaurants 😊

The ambiance was quite welcoming, everything from the perfect level of the jazz playing to the staff was cool and comfortable. The food was a perfect match for the atmosphere, fine dining in a home like atmosphere. My wife and I loved it! The Fork has never steered me wrong!

It was a dinner for two. We had mushroom risotto and prawn tagliatelle as starters. For the main, we had swordfish carpaccio and stuffed chicken breast. All dishes were incredibly good especially the chicken breast. Highly recommended!

It wasn't the first time at El Salon! And we were ’t disappointed this time either. The place has good vibes, service excellent and the main readon we came was the duck leg. It just melts in the mouth. Loved it.

We spent our last night in Barcelona of 2 1/2 Weeks of Holiday travel having dinner at El Salón. The food, experience, and service were exceptional. I would highly recommend everyone to have a dinner in El Salon. One of the very best dinners that we had in Spain.

LOVED this restaurant! The servers were friendly and helpful, the food was fresh and delicious, and the ambience was cosy and welcoming. I’d recommend this place for any occasion; great for a date night, dinner with friends, or to impress your colleagues with a local “hidden gem”.
