7/10We went there with the envy of an innovative and fresh vegetables cuisine proposition. Yet, most food served was lacking surprises, texture needs to be thought again (nearly all plates had some sort of puree making the plates often lacking croquant / crujiente, the food tasted "flat"/ "boring"). When ideas are well executed like the ajoblanco starter the quantities are too much. Desert were likely the main positive from a food perspective providing a fresh bitter sweet proposal to finish the meal. Service and wine service were both top notch. The chef needs to help his talented team delivering a more twisted and innovative food proposition. The overall experience deserves this to move to the next level. I will not come back without an evolution in the quality of the food proposal.

9.5/10Absolutely astonishing, from start to finish. Delectable seems too small a word. Attentive, informative staff—fabulously fun evening with an absolutely exquisite artistry of haute cuisine.

9.5/10Absolutely amazing experience where the vegetables are the stars. Each dish is surprising Fresh and excellently executed by one of the most recognized cooks in Spain that after working in several one, two and three Michelin stars is now offering something at the level but from a different perspective. Completely stunning!

I still find it hard to believe how fantastic this restaurant was. I must say everything was perfect! The setting, the service, the ambience and of course the most amazing food. From the moment we walked in we felt at home and very well looked after. Every dish was unique and unlike anything we had ever had before. There is so much creativity and hard work that has gone into making this place as outstanding as it is. We have been to many degustation restaurants around the world - especially those that have separate Vegan and Vegetarian menus - and we both agreed without a doubt that this is number one. They also have a menu that includes fish and meat which makes it convenient for those who don't want to have Vegetarian. We were there for a special anniversary and they were very kind. It was such a great experience we would come back to Barcelona just to visit the restaurant! If you have the opportunity please go. You are sure to love it.

The service, it's not good! Coldness, no smiles Automated service In some restaurants of this level, the chef comes to greet the guests, here, that's not the case. We left the restaurant without even a goodbye! In short, disappointing welcome and atmosphere.

10/10They say cooking simple food in an excellent way is the hallmark of an excellent chef. Xavier Pellicer delivers. If you want fresh local healthy food, make Xavier Pellicer a requirement during your visit to Barcelona. The restaurant is beautiful, the service is excellent, and the food is the best we had in Barcelona.

+3This restaurant is a revelation!! The tastes are exquisite and perfect, and the ingredients are locally sourced and bring to the fore the incredible flavours of the vegetables. The beautiful interior compliments the refined presentation of the tasting menu. Service is highly attentive yet casual and personal. Excellent English spoken by staff and menu. The evening before we had a rather disappointing meal in a seafood restaurant with one Michelin star - this place here was better by a factor of 10!

I think I was expecting more. The tasting menu was great and we were surprised that a Michelin starred restaurant didn’t have a wine pairing (although sommelier did her best to give us 4 interesting wines throughout the meal). The food quality was good, but this seemed more like a Bib Gourmand than a 1 star. That said, I would go back again with lower expectations.

9/10All the dishes were interesting and technically very well executed. Gaspacho was genius, so were boletus and broccoli (even better without broccoli). The couple of not-so-tasty starters were at least original and worth the try. To my surprise they do have fish, chicken and meat on the menu, and the veal was excellent. The only minor problem overall - too much olive oil. Service was excellent, extensive but not overloading wine list, knowledgable sommelier, neat stylish interior. Worth a Michelin star, if only for trying. The Chef should smile more, he has an open kitchen.

I have taken my business partner to different fancy restaurants in Barcelona. Xavier Pellicer had the highest score after our evaluation. We loved the part that we were able to interact with chefs and how dishes were carefully cooked. Definitely will go back again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

7.5/10Ambience and staff amazing, a great experience! Unfortunately two drawdowns: first, the vegan tasting menu was largely the omnivore menu “without” as in leaving out things. Ultimately, therefore the omnivore menu had a better arc and Crescendo - with the final dish being incredibly wonderful pork ribs - vs a rather bland carrot in the vegan menu. For the same price. With the restaurant’s focus on plant based food, this is quite unacceptable, it almost seemed like a parody. Secondly, the food was less flavorful and more overcooked than I would have liked. Maybe a matter of personal preference, but the produced had little own flavor and barely any texture anymore. Super tasty still, but not quite the celebration of plant based food that should be expected for two sols and the price. Overall, very well priced and with great and fair priced wine pairing.

7.5/10It was good but not great. Food was well plated but lacked the wow I was expecting. Servers were nice but it was busy and slow. (Not in a good way). I would give it another try perhaps ordering off of the other menu.

10/10It was phenomenal! We were celebrating our friends birthday, the restaurant with just 1 day notice prepared us a special cake since some of us were gluten intolerant. We chose degustation menu and OMG it was worth it, got perfectly full and satisfied exactly with the last plate. Special thanks to sommelier and Xavier for making our dinner unforgettable.

Overrated. Some dishes were too salty, some were totally bland. Over priced and meh ambiance. Desserts could use an overhaul. Staff was awesome, though!!

6/10Took the full veg 12 course menu. Most dishes were interesting but lacked any generosity, creativity and taste. Quantities are tiny and no bread offered. The service was just ok. You are served by 5 or 6 different persons. Difficult to avoid discontinuity in demands and care. No real sense of proximity. Explanations are short and factual.Again the lack of generosity transpires. In sum, i came out frustrated, hungry and disappointed.

10/10A superlative experience on every level: extraordinarily delicious food - fresh, seasonal, inventive and beautifully presented. The restaurant itself is buzzy and fun, the staff are knowledgeable professional and service is superb. We will return whenever we are in Barcelona. Watching the master Xavier himself at work with his team whilst sitting up at the bar was undoubtedly the best seat in the house. We loved every minute of our evening.
