Wonderful food, exciting menu options, great ambiance. Really enjoyed their music selection. Everything was delicious and cooked to perfection which is rare for vegetarian offerings.

A bit pushing on ordering more, pastas arriving cold and warmed up in the micro wave. A bit pricy for non organic vegetarian cuisine. Cheesecake was very good tho !

Lots of delicious dishes on offer (cauliflower, red cabbage… mmmm), kind waiter, quick service, including a small portion of soup of the day to taste. Choice of music the evening we were there was a bit too loud / led zeppelin like or so but after asking to reduce volume, the style became a bit more appropriate too.

The food was tasty and service good as usually but the prices has increased a lot, specially the vegan options. Food was good but too pricey for what it is. To bad.

The restaurant would be amazing if it weren't for the following elements: 1. The ambience could be romantic, the whole cave idea of the story, but it comes off as a restaurant that nobody bothered to arrange. 2. The food was half good, half bad. We had the vegan menu. The dessert was the only thing flawless. The rice with beetroot was horrible. The cauliflower had a heavy sauce (I love tahini so it is not that I am not used to it. This one was just giving you the need to puke). The gazpacho was ok, nothing special just like the padron. the aubergine with miso sauce was excellent. The pan con tomato is normal. They gave us figs with brie for free which was tasty. There was another plate though, which just like the curry was unedible. It was black, unappealing and tasted awful. 3. The waiters were in a big hurry to take the plates when we still had in them. I felt rushed on a Friday evening despite having a reservation. When I needed something they were not there. I do not recommend it. Big hype for nothing. There are a lot more places in Barcelona that are way better
