We went with our friends and ordered panissa, cod with potatoes, and focaccia with onions (which I loooved) as starters, and we also had trofie al pesto that were exceptional, focaccia with cheese that was also very good, ravioli with meat and the only dish that we didn't like as much was brasata. However, all in all it was a great experience, the service was very good and we enjoyed it a lot.

I’m Italian from Genova and I loved the ravioli and pesto! The food is delicious, can’t wait to go back to try the focaccia di Recco! The service is great and the ambience cozy, well curated.

We had the pleasure of dining at this wonderful Italian restaurant, and it was truly one of the best experiences we've had. The food was exceptional—each dish was prepared with the utmost care and attention to detail. The fried anchovies and focaccia were standout dishes that left a lasting impression on us; they were simply delicious. In addition to the outstanding cuisine, the service was impeccable. The waitstaff was incredibly attentive and took the time to explain each dish and the restaurant's overall concept, which enhanced our dining experience even further. We felt warmly welcomed and well taken care of throughout our entire visit. This restaurant is a gem, and we highly recommend it to anyone who appreciates authentic Italian cuisine and top-notch service. We will definitely be returning!

Excellent italian restaurant!
9.0
The food feels fresh, with quality ingredients. It is more creative than the standard Italian menus, which is a welcome change. The service is quite pleasant, perhaps a little slow but that may be due to the fact that dishes may be cooked to order. Altogether a very enjoyable lunch.

The menus was missing some of the positions. The staff was friendly but forgetful. Overall nothing extraordinary. Decent but pretty average place.

An authentic Italian restaurant in Barcelona ! The Genoese touch , the Liguria wines. And a chef revisiting his roots. This is a beautiful surprise.

6.0
We made reservations because the place had great reviews. Unfortunately, it did not live up to the expectations. My wife is a trained chef and in her words, "they tried too hard." Lots of style but little substance to the food. Gnocci with pesto was uninspired and the pasta needed salt. Duck reduction of soy was just excessively salty and closer to burnt. No vegetable or starch sides served/offered with any of the entrees. A limited menu and yet none of the items were truly mastered. A couple of "cheesy" things: we ordered cheese plate (16 Eur), they offered bread for it then brought out an incredibly salty focacia appetizer and charged us for it. Also, the "bottled" water came in Absolute Vodka bottles that were relabeled with their name but were brought to the table open and with the seals already broken- a pretty good sign that they were filled at the restaurant. There are simply too many excellent restaurants to go to this one. I would definitely advise avoiding.

Excellent food! One of the best Italian restaurants I have ever been to! Especially the desserts are true masterpieces. Very highly recommended!
