9/10The 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.

7/10The menus was missing some of the positions. The staff was friendly but forgetful. Overall nothing extraordinary. Decent but pretty average place.

10/10Nice little cafe a bit away from the main tourist spots. Very friendly staff. Despite the language barrier, full consultation on the menu. Everything is simple, but very tasty.

9.5/10A small Italian restaurant with emphasis on ingredients. Decor is very modern and sophisticated. We were warmly welcomed by the owner and decided to have the 5 course tasting menu, which was delightful. A range of wines both Spanish and Italian are available to suit all tastes.

10/10An authentic Italian restaurant in Barcelona ! The Genoese touch , the Liguria wines. And a chef revisiting his roots. This is a beautiful surprise.

9/10This little restaurant was everything we were looking for! We had the 5-course menu, which was delicious. Portions were great, we left full and happy! Personnel was very friendly, explaining in full about each dish! We found it a bit weird that they left us pour in our own wine, hence the 9/10 and not a full 10, but we didn’t care much! Would go again in a heartbeat!

6/10We 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.
