    We took the €60 menu the quality of the veal was bad full of nerves not fat like any other good quality meat and the portions were tiny. They were nice in that we were not charged for drinks and coffee. I would go back to try their à la carte dishes but certainly not the set menu.

    The food was excellent and the ambient very cool. The service was great. Good and efficient people attended us at all time. Its a great combination to go to Aji and then the Grand Casino of Barcelona which is next door!

    Honestly, one of the best places I’ve eaten in my entire 2 week trip to Europe. Found it on the Michelin star list while in Spain and I absolutely love it. Will be dreaming about their Bao Shrimp bun for awhile. Every dish was excellent as well as the drinks.

    The food is tasty and good quality but I did expect a better menu for Michelin. The service was good, but the ambiance was strange. The colors and lighting weren’t serene and I had a ceiling drip right next to my seat the whole time.

    The Lomo Saltado was excellent but the sushi was just good. Certainly not bad at all, but the sushi quality was acceptable not a stand out.

    6/10

    Table was ready on time. Pisco sour wqs fantastic (right texture, right amount of sugar and liquour). The place looks clean and the kitchen has a glass so you can see thr actual chef. The kitchen looks organized and clean. I felt the ceviche was poor in flavor. Fish was completely raw (vs marinatedl) with lemon juice and salt (no garlic, no ginger, no herbs) and few random cubes of sweet potate that were not enough to contrast a nonexisting flavor. I do see the intention of being authetic on the preparation, but the flavor is just not there. On the contrary, I would give five starts for the deserts: creative, full of flavor and very elaborated. Tables are too close to each other. You may participate in next table conversation.

    We made the reservation for 15 am. We didn't k ow that this is the last hour and if we want to order the tasting menu it's not available at this time. So we tried to order with the waiter wich didn't know wich dish to choose. Although the products were good and the starters where very tasty . The ambience was not good and the service was not Profesional . This is not a Michelin restaurant or service.

    The taste pairing is really good! But when you see prices, they become gorgeous. Each dish has variety of flavors and they are changing, while you eat, so the aftertaste sometimes the best highlight of the bite.

    Truly awful experience. Restaurant is located on a business park next to a casino. Manager very rude. No vegan option or tasting menu so had to order from A La Carte. The remaining one person was then also refused the tasting menu because they would not make it for only one person. Poor ambience also. Quite cold. You'd have better joy losing your money in the casino next door than this place.

    The food was nice, the beef Tataki was a bit tough( did not seem like sirloin), also they served my girlfriend alcohol when she is a recovering alcoholic and mentioned not to drink alcohol. I would say if you pay a bit more attention on something this crucial the overal experience will improve immensely.

    Amazing experience, food was very good, each and everything we ordered was spot on but the best was our waiter Jessica who set the difference! From the wine she gave up to taste up to the whole choice she made for our dinner, explaining in detail from where and how the dish was cooked providing information about the process and composition of each one. Worth to repeat!

    Very nice place near the Port Olímpic. Food at top notch quality, I really appreciated the Nippo-Peruan fusion. The staff is efficient and gentle. Great service and care for the client (I’ve been surprised by receiving - for free - a little portion of well-elaborated fish and vegetable composition while I was waiting for my main dish). Very good value for money indeed.
