A hidden gem with the soul of a home kitchen Dining at Santa Rita Experience is like being invited into a friend’s home - except your friend in this case is an exceptional chef from Navarra with access to the very best seasonal ingredients. With just a few tables and the kitchen right in the middle of the room, you watch him cook, plate, and personally serve each dish while telling you the story behind it. It’s an intimate, one-of-a-kind experience. In a quiet residential area, yet only a short walk from Rambla Poblenou and a quick tram ride from the city centre. If you love food with a personal touch, this is unmissable.

It is not the first time in Santa Rita and it is all perfect. The great style of Xabi mixing elegance and haute cuisine with friendliness, Basque tradition and innovation. Michelin-level quality, extremely affordable. For those who are curious, always available to explain everything and cook together. We will return again.

The experience was magical, the food was creative and absolutely delicious, and the chef and staff were incredibly accommodating, warm, and kind. It was a perfect night and cozy environment to celebrate and honor our friend and mentor, and a meal we will never forget.
