Montjuïc "El Xalet"

The first person ever talked to about this restaurant was Isidre Busqué. I was there two days ago with Mateo Valero and other friends.

  • Montjuïc "El Xalet". Av. de Miramar, 31. 08038 Barcelona. + 34933249270. A fancy restaurant with paramount view of Barcelona. The cuisine is correct and it is a little overpriced. In the terrace illumination is poor. The service is not its best characteristic.

Koldo Royo

An inspiring experience. Yesterday, in Mallorca, we were there for dinner. Helena Martinez suggested this 1 Michelin start restaurant. It is a cosy and lovely place. They had two ambiances and different taster menus. We were at the bistrot and the daily menu which was just perfect.
