The restaurant is located in a 4-star historical hotel. In the evening, it offers a set menu that includes nine or more dishes. I chose nine dishes and a kid's menu for my son. The kid’s menu was much better than what we usually find in the south of France—it tasted delicious. The seafood dish had a Japanese twist, with a great presentation and excellent flavor. I especially enjoyed the local pork dish—it might be the best I've ever had. There was also a good selection of beverages. The service was efficient and professional. In the end, we had a reasonable bill for our last dinner in this busy city. I’d definitely recommend this place to anyone who enjoys fine dining.

This is one of the hidden gems of Barcelona. The food and service are excellent - the setting it amazing. The restaurant is located in one of the signature projects by Lluis Domenech i Montaner, the "father of Catalan Modernisme". It is a experience that is worth seeking out.

The food and service were both excellent and good value for the quality. It was just a shame the restaurant was so quiet. We were very surprised that there was only ourselves and two other diners on a Thursday night, obviously this effected the ambience of the experience, but credit to the restaurant for not cancelling on us.

Dear Claire, Thank you for your review. We are truly thankful for the kind words regarding your recent visit to Fonda Espanya Restaurante. We are delighted that the cuisine and the attentiveness of our staff enhanced your dining experience, reflecting the dedication and culinary art of our world-renowned gastronomic director, Martin Berasategui, and our experienced head chef, Eduardo Rodas. The value we offer is something we are very proud of, ensuring that our guests receive the highest quality at a fair price. However, we are saddened to hear that the quiet atmosphere affected your overall impression. It is quite unusual for our restaurant to have such tranquility, as we typically enjoy a lively dining room filled with the convivial chatter of our guests. We hope this occurrence did not detract too much from the enjoyment of your meal. Nonetheless, we trust that the unique ambiance of our modernist dining room, originally designed by Lluís Domènech i Montaner, provided a beautiful backdrop to your gast
