Reasonable prices. Great food & great wine. Staff was bilingual and very courteous. I don’t usually eat desserts, but the ones we had were amazing.

While the tasting menu was well thought out from a stylistic standpoint, the restaurant itself has more of office ambience than restaurant. Some of the courses (paté, duck e.g.) stayed behind their potential. Otherwise a really good price-value ratio! Only recommended for (hunting) meat-lovers

We found a long woman hair in our food. The staff immediately took our food away without saying sorry.

Gala was excellent. Service was personal but professional. Presentation was exceptional. They changed plates and cutlery every course. The dishes were delicious, beautifully presented and appropriately portioned. Steak tartare, sea bass, venison and sea urchin were standouts.

The standout for me was the 3 cheese cheesecake! Creamy, with real gourmet cheeses, it is exceptional! All other dishes were very good (I also recommend the passion fruit shrimp) and service attentive.

The food and atmosphere was fantastic. We got the tasting menu and were not disappointed. Our server did not speak fluent English (and we didn’t speak fluent Spanish), but he made every effort and it added to the experience. If we ever it back to Barcelona, we would definitely go again.

The oyster was amazing, and so was the gazpacho. The other dishes was indeed tasteful, but somehow too rich. So if you are in for a “beef” umami taste, you will be delighted- it’s rich and full body flavored. I just missed a bit more crispy and more subtle light flavors. Otherwise it was a fine experience dinning at Gala.

I had a dinner at the Gala last week. The food is beyond all expectations. Everything and I mean Everything is delicious. My favorite was the sea urchin, shrimp ceviche, and octopus.
