Winter Garden

  • Restaurants
  • Catalan
  • Dreta de l’Eixample

The Winter Garden restaurant at the El Palace hotel lives up to any expectations you might have when you enter one of the great hotels in Barcelona. The exclusivity is in the views as well as in the kitchen. The restaurant boasts spectacular 360-degree views of Barcelona, and  you get to choose between two tasting menus (November to April) with an air of French haute cuisine that are perfect for trying a bit of everything along with wine pairings. In the warmer months (April to October), the Jardín Diana garden is transformed into an urban oasis. The hotel’s top floor offers signature tapas and Mediterranean cuisine, a selection of cocktails and good music with DJ sessions. Year round, this is an idyllic space away from the noise of the city streets, with one of the best panoramic views in town.

Casa Xica

  • 4 out of 5 stars

  • Restaurants
  • El Poble-sec

There’s a saying in Spanish that translates roughly to ‘Small house, big heart’, and the owners of Casa Xica (which means Small House in Catalan), Marc and Raquel must have very big hearts indeed. The easiest way to describe what they do is to call it fusion cooking. But that term has become so overused, and in their case it’s more of a compilation of tastes they’ve learned in faraway lands with their own touch added to tempt even the fussiest of diners. Take, for example, the tabbouleh: it’s delicious, healthy, made from local ingredients and enhanced with fish practically taken right from the sea. Casa Xica provides that little push you might need on your date to make the all-important first move.

  • Restaurants
  • Haute cuisine
  • El Gòtic

  • price 3 of 4

Catalan chef Alain Guiard, with French roots and education, calls his restaurant ‘playful, straightforward and affordable dining option in a five-star Relais Chateaux hotel’. The restaurant, which overlooks one of Barcelona’s loveliest squares, is pure magic. The brilliance of the dishes allows for them to be mixed and matched with anarchy. The medium-sized portions are made for sharing, though you might not want to: the egg with parmentier, smoked eel, carbonara foam and tobiko is something you’ll want all for yourself. Guiard shows off his strengths with a series of seafood and shellfish dishes, such as a sea bass ragout, cockles and mussels with orange and coconut, which is both a classic dish and at the same time a type of hot ceviche. The crunchy potato tacos with crab, sour cream and caviar are unforgettable.

Casa Àngela

  • Restaurants
  • Catalan
  • Sagrada Família

  • price 2 of 4

Most of us think about eating by the sea to get a really authentic paella in Barcelona. So it might surprise you to know that when you’re talking about Casa Àngela, you can get the real thing in the vicinity of the Sagrada Família. Here rice dishes reign: they’ve got eight on the menu and all are powerful and tasty. Also in their repertoire is a selection of classic tapas that will satisfy tourists looking for something near Gaudí’s cathedral as well as locals looking for quality: garlic prawns, ‘patatas bravas’, croquettes and cod fritters. The owners say they want to be in there among the top rice dishes and tapas to try in Barcelona, adding that they cook everything from scratch with quality products, and they don’t overcharge customers. And a tapas bar and rice speciality restaurant in the Sagrada Família neighbourhood can also be a great place for a date: you’ll find phenomenal views of the Sagrada Família itself in intimate and cosy surrounds.

Wagokoro

  • Restaurants
  • Sant Gervasi – Galvany

Kenia Nakamura and Anna Peray go hand in hand in this welcoming space where ‘kaiseki’ rules. This Japanese cooking concept varies throughout the year depending on the season and you’ll find the essence of the product on every plate. The pair have developed a harmonious menu, one that is thoughtful, aesthetic, ceremonial, and stripped of any pretentions. It’s not only a gastronomic project but a life project.

El Pla

  • 4 out of 5 stars

  • Restaurants
  • Sant Pere, Santa Caterina i la Ribera

  • price 3 of 4

Passing by El Pla you’ll see that it’s a romantic spot by definition. As you make your way amid the dark and narrow streets of the Barri Gòtic, the scene is being set for your arrival into this restaurant with exquisite low light and an informal yet elegant decor that pairs perfectly with the cuisine. The wines and desserts also go well with the starters and mains, and they’re outstanding. El Pla has been open for two decades now, and the work of chef Andrew Smith has lifted it to an especially sweet spot, with dishes charged with flavour and creativity, like the grilled carrot carpaccio withelderflower and horseradish.

Le Cucine Mandarosso

  • Restaurants
  • Italian
  • Sant Pere, Santa Caterina i la Ribera

  • price 2 of 4

It’s great for lunch, sure, but dinner at Le Cucine Mandarosso with a friend or family member might be a bit strange. Because the ambience emanates an intangible intimate and cosy quality that’s just right for a romantic date. It’s all subtle, casual, with retro furniture, and products and books on the shelves that line the walls. Plus the Italian cuisine itself raises the bar on sensuality. If your dinner date still isn’t clear on your intentions, Le Cucine will help you out in that capacity. A word of warning (or advice): the burrata cheese can make you lose all your inhibitions.

Torre d’Alta Mar

  • Restaurants
  • Mediterranean
  • La Barceloneta

  • price 4 of 4

In the game of seduction and coupling, the element of surprise and a certain blast of excitement can mark a turning point in a relationship. You could meet your partner at the door wearing just sexy underwear and a rose between your teeth. But inviting your sweetheart to a restaurant inside the tower of a funicular could win you even more points, given that it’s a frivolous whimsy of sorts in itself. This is when you’re ready to bring out all the heavy artillery to say: ‘I’m starving, but I’ll sell a kidney for you to have a stunning meal.’

Bar Veraz

  • Restaurants
  • Haute cuisine

  • price 2 of 4

You’ll find Catalan cuisine prepared more with a focus on ingredients and seasonality than on sticking to the letter of a recipe. For example, the ‘fricandó’ is thin slices of stewed veal stuffed with Jerusalem artichoke, with a creamy sauce of ‘rossinyols’ (chanterelle mushrooms) and a picada that’s much more than just your typical garlic and parsley. Another memorable dish is one that may seem basic, but it’s prepared with the accuracy of sniper: sweet potato with feta cheese. You get the sweetness of autumn with the fresh acidity of the Mediterranean, combined with a savoury sauce of caramelised vinegar and hazelnuts. Wow. They’ve also set out to revolutionise the vermouth hour a bit – the mussels with bacon wake up your mouth and throat – and at any time of the day you’ll find excellent Roman-style pizzas (a crispy and light crust that’s fermented for three days) and a pasta of the day, like an incredible meeting of the traditional Catalan galet shell pasta and the traditional Sardinian culurgione stuffed pasta – a burst of freshness, basil and more-ish sauce.

Rilke

  • Restaurants
  • Haute cuisine
  • Dreta de l’Eixample

The Grup Confitería have reopened the old Beltxenea (a Basque restaurant that once stood on the same spot and closed in 2012) and renamed it Rilke. Decadent romanticism sticks to the place like syphilis to Baudelaire: it’s a stately building that dates back to the early 20th century, boasting an imperial dining room with views of the interior courtyard that’s presided over by a Venus de Milo, a fountain with lions, and exquisitely dense vegetation. You sit down with a glass of burgundy, sigh, and have the feeling that any minute a character out of ‘Madame Bovary’ will appear. If the person you’re wooing has goth or ethereal leanings, ask for a table in front of the garden and recite Baudelaire’s ‘A Carcass’ to them. And what the hell, if they’re not a goth or a weirdo, the amazing dishes that come out of Rafa Peña’s kitchen will win them over nonetheless.

Osmosis

  • Restaurants
  • Mediterranean
  • Eixample

  • price 3 of 4

Over the years, Osmosis has established itself as a place for affordable, creative and excellent cuisine – a fine-tuned machine when it comes to set menus made with immaculate products. Osmosis is among the ‘bistronomics’ restaurants that popped up around the city a few years back. A fairly minimalist interior where all the focus is on good food and service, and at reasonable prices. Osmosis is a laid-back place with lots of little nooks and crannies and private rooms for small groups or couples. The lunchtime menu is perfect for closing a deal without subsequent indigestion, and for romantic dinners.

Celler Can Recasens

  • Restaurants
  • Sant Martí

  • price 2 of 4

More than a decade back, an old neighbourhood pork shop transformed into this eatery with a modernist aesthetic, old photos on the walls and small, softly lit spaces. After a good dinner of select cured meats, cheeses, fondue, salad, and plenty of wine, you’ll only be able to think of one way to burn off all those calories. They’ve got dishes that can raise the dead, so you know Recasens will spark more than one flame.

Marea Alta

  • Restaurants
  • Seafood
  • El Raval

For the views alone, Marea Alta has become practically a first-class tourist attraction. Up on the 24th floor of the Colón building, diners get a sensational, unprecedented 360-degree view of the city. They also take a panoramic view of the marine products they use, with what director Enrique Valentín calls ‘a simple and at the same time difficult idea’: high-quality fish and seafood from the best suppliers from around Spain and served raw, smoked, marinated and grilled. Shellfish is a known aphrodisiac; add to that some great views and the object of your desire will be yours, whether it’s someone you want to get to know better or you’re rekindling the fire with your longtime love.

Fragments Cafè

Fragments Cafè

  • 4 out of 5 stars

  • Restaurants
  • Mediterranean
  • Les Corts

  • price 2 of 4

This is one of the few Barcelona Noucentisme (early-20th-century Catalan movement that started as a reaction against Modernisme) buildings where you’re welcome all day. Fragments Cafè owes its good taste, perfectionism, and knowledge to Ricardo Feriche and Juliet Pomés, who spend a lot of time searching for spaces where people can relax and enjoy themselves.   In this spirit they set up this delightful place, perfect for bon vivants, where their lighting work stands out – with the warmth of the natural light by day and the just-the-right tone at night.

Indochine Ly Leap

  • Restaurants
  • South Asian
  • Eixample

  • price 3 of 4

A frenzy of Asia-inspired tapas, in which Ly Leap shows off his expertise with spices, citrus and aromatic herbs. This place is crazy: a thousand square metres of jungle, where the tables are tiny islands suspended above water, with fish and everything.

Meneghina

  • Restaurants
  • Italian
  • Sant Pere, Santa Caterina i la Ribera

  • price 2 of 4

This lovely Italian restaurant offers home cooking and top-quality pasta. Worth a visit for starters like fresh burrata, or tasty pasta: linguine with cherry tomatoes and basil, or papardelle with ragout, for example. The doll’s house dining room with double tables makes for an ideal setting for a romantic date. Especially if your idea of romance is out of ‘Amélie’ or inside a doll’s house.

    Romantic Restaurants in Barcelona — Barcelona Food Experience

    Best Of

    Written By Maria

    Out of ideas for Sant Jordi, Valentine’s Day or any other romantic day such as an anniversary? I have a made a list of my favorite romantic restaurants and bars in Barcelona, that are perfect for bringing your date!

    Pepa Bar a Vins, Barcelona. Photo © Barcelona Food Experience.

    Pepa Bar a Vins – It used to be a bookshop, and the owners have kept a lot of the old deco. The food is great, and do let the staff guide you, they are really good at picking interesting options. Read my review here. Make sure you try the interesting wines! Aribau 41 (Eixample).

    Dessert at Xemei, Barcelona. Photo © Barcelona Food Experience.

    Xemei – You can’t go wrong with Italian when you’re looking for something romantic, that’s just the way it is. Xemei has so much atmosphere, and it’s very cosy. The food is amazing and the staff is friendly. Sharing dishes and a dessert and having a couple of glasses of wine sets you back about 35-40 euros per person. Paseo de la Exposición 85 (Poble Sec).

    Racó d’en Cesc – A classic. Most tables are far from each other so you get plenty of privacy, and the tables are big so you don’t feel cramped. Their sommelier is amazing, and they bring you a BOOK with all of their wines (they also do beer pairings and have a huge set of beers available). The food is very local and very comforting. Read more here. Diputació 201 (Eixample).

    Cellarer – These guys have a wine shop and now a bar too, where you can get MANY many wines by the glass (and half glass) and have something to eat too. Mallorca 211 (Eixample).

    Can Recasens – Are you in the mood for love but also cheese? Go here. It’s an amazingly cosy space with many different rooms, candles everywhere, and a menu packed with cheeses in every form, cured meats, salads and good wines. The prices here are excellent. Rambla del Poblenou 102 (Poblenou).

    Benzina, Barcelona. Photo © Barcelona Food Experience.

    Benzina – What used to be a car mechanic’s shop is now a gorgeous space where a cool Brooklyn vibe has swept in, with a few Moroccan accents. So different, very attractive and sets a tone for the evening. The food is deliciously Italian, and the menu changes every couple of months to display seasonal ingredients. Make sure to order cocktails too, they’re great. Read my review here. Passatge de Pere Calders 6 (Sant Antoni).

    Sato I Tanaka – The door to this Japanese restaurant looks rather anonymous, and inside you will find a mere 15 seats, all along the bar that surrounds the talented chefs. Make sure you go for the tasting menus, it’s a wonderful experience. Read my review here. C/ Bruc 79 (Eixample).

    Dessert at Sato I Tanaka, Barcelona. Photo © Barcelona Food Experience.

    La Vinateria del Call – A bit touristy, but very cosy. Go here for lots of good atmosphere, tapas and good wines. Carrer de Sant Domènec del Call 9 (Gótico).

    Direkte Boqueria, Barcelona. Photo © Barcelona Food Experience.

    Direkte Boqueria – Looking for a very unique experience to celebrate something special? Direkte Boqueria has only 11 seats (all of them around the chefs), and two different tasting menus to choose from. For a few hours you’re taken on a magical journey with local and Asian flavors. It is unforgettable. Make sure to book a few weeks in advance! Read my review here. Cabres 13 (La Boqueria).

    Casa Figari – A cool, Italian-inspired wine bar that is quite a gem! Very interesting natural wines to choose from, some food, and live music. Can it get any better for a date night? I think not. Carrer del Torrent de l’Olla, 141 (Gracia).

    Can Travi Nou, Barcelona. Photo © Barcelona Food Experience.

    Can Travi Nou – This beautiful restaurant looks like a cozy old farm house, and weddings are celebrated here. The house is divided into several rooms that you can book for a special occasion. The food is traditional local and seasonal dishes, made with the best ingredients. Read my review here. c/ Jorge Manrique s/n (Vall d’Hebron).

    Chocolate dessert at Chaka Khan, Barcelona. Photo © Barcelona Food Experience.

    Chaka Khan – Chaka Khan is a tropical, exotic gem of a restaurant in the Raval, that divides into two spaces: informal and fun Chaka downstairs and Khan upstairs, with its tasting menus and enticing flavors. For a cozy and romantic evening I recommend Khan upstairs, ask for seats by the kitchen so that you can see all the action. Make sure to order their cocktails! Read my review here. Carrer de l’Hospital 104 (Raval).

    Flax & Kale Passage, Barcelona. Photo © Barcelona Food Experience.

    Flax & Kale Passage – Didn’t see that one coming did ya? If you want something healthy but some atmosphere too, Flax & Kale Passage has a few booths where you can get some peace and quiet from the outside world. Oh, and they’re 100% gluten free. Sant Pere Més Alt 31-33 (La Ribera).

    La Carassa – These guys are experts on fondues, and it has the feeling of an Austrian ski cottage. Low ceiling beams, candles and hand-made lace table cloths. Brosolí 1 (Born).

    Spicy Volx, Barcelona. Photo © Barcelona Food Experience.

    Spicy Volx – A fun, cool and different option for a romantic evening! The space is large, dark but very cozy, with so many fascinating details everywhere. The walls are amazing, covered with interesting and cool artwork. Most tables are communal, which fits the vibe perfectly. The menu is a mix of Asian dishes, divided into starters, spicy specials, soups, noodles and rice and robata. The cocktails are to die for. Read my review here. Carrer de Comte Borrell 41 (Sant Antoni).

    Bar Mut– This place is tiny (and not the cheapest) but if you score a good seat you’re in for a treat. Wonderful dishes to share and great staff. Read my review here. Pau Claris 192 (Eixample).

    Photo © Barcelona Food Experience.

    Les Gens Que J’Aime – Go through a tiny little door, down a narrow set of stairs and you are in a beautiful little bar with vintage furniture, jazz playing in the background and old photos on the wall. Go early so you get the best spot under the stairs. València 286 (Eixample). .

    Dr Stravisky, Barcelona. Photo © Barcelona Food Experience.

    Dr Stravinsky – In the Born you can find this crazy laboratory of a bar, the cocktails are very good and the deco very quirky. Read my review here. Carrer dels Mirallers, 5 (Born).

    Collage – Fun cocktails in a quirky environment, here you can chill in a vintage sofa and indulge in colourful drinks. Carrer dels Consellers, 4 (Born).

    Want more inspiration for good cocktail bars? Here is my list of the best cocktail bars in Barcelona!

    La Cava Cakery has adorable cupcakes and cute cava bottles to go with them. Ask for the Love Box and pair it with a cava of your choice! Read my review of La Cava Cakery here. You can also order them online!

    Romance in Barcelona. 12 Best Date Ideas

    Best Romantic Date Ideas

    Barcelona is an incredibly romantic city. Medieval miniature buildings, fortresses, gentle sea, lots of greenery, magnificent viewing platforms, and the general atmosphere of Spanish passion – all this makes dating in Barcelona so popular.

    12 romantic ideas in Barcelona

    Dinner on the roof

    An unforgettable romantic date with a panoramic view of Barcelona will not leave anyone indifferent.

    Hunting for the sunset

    The most incredible view of the city opens up from a height. The average number of floors in Barcelona is 6-7 floors, and therefore, as soon as you climb higher, a stunning picture opens up for you. Barcelona is the best city to become the newfangled “sunset maniacs” – the hunter of sunsets.

    Read about the best viewing platforms

    Cooking class

    Feel like the right hand of Gordon Ramsay or simply the winner of the Master Chef show. What could be more romantic?

    Sea trip

    Crossing the sea on a sailboat or yacht is exactly what is remembered for a long time.

    Helicopter flight

    Bird’s eye view of Barcelona is amazing. The Sagrada Familia, the squares of the Eixample, the splashing waves are incredibly admirable from a height.

    Let’s fly!

    Dinner at Casa Mila

    Visit Antoni Gaudí’s masterpiece, enjoy a delicious dinner, light show and jazz. Great idea for a romantic evening.

    Cheer for Barça

    If you want thrills, then you definitely need to get to the football match of the great Barça. Cheer for Messi and sing in unison with thousands of fans in the largest stadium in Europe – this is exactly what you will enjoy.

    How to get to the Barça match

    Make a surprise

    Coffee in bed is no longer surprising, but flowers in the room are nice. Or a saxophonist, or maybe a violinist playing his favorite tune, or maybe a flash mob with Spanish dances, or, well, a very funny clown. Surprises in Barcelona is a truly magical gift for your soul mate or close friend.

    I want a surprise!

    Flamenco Show

    Attend the best flamenco show in Barcelona or take part in a private workshop, whatever you choose, the fire of Spanish passion will set you on fire.

    I want flamenco!

    Photo session

    Romantic photo session in the Old Town, in front of Gaudí’s masterpieces or on breathtaking panoramic platforms. This romantic gift will remain called a memory for a long time.

    Marriage proposal

    Barcelona is the most romantic city in Europe. And to be honest, Paris with its Eiffel Tower is also beautiful, but Barna is the sea, mountains, sun, Gaudi, football and such delicious gastronomy. This is the best city to say such a sacred “marry me” and receive such a treasured “yes”.

    I’m ready!

    I want to propose and don’t know where to start.

    Until quite recently it was really difficult to organize a proposal in Barcelona really beautifully and romantically, and therefore the grooms simply chose a cozy restaurant on the roof, or a beautiful place in the city, where street musicians play nearby.

    Today, everything has changed, and there is every opportunity to make a proposal in Barcelona unforgettable, romantic, amazing, and at the same time you still do not need to know the language, arrive alone in advance, or somehow delve into the process. Successful people choose comfort, both for themselves and for their companion, future wife.

    Our team will gladly organize everything for you. For each couple, we come up with something special, and prepare the entire entourage and actors. Together with professionals in our field, we will arrange a flash mob on the square, with a romantic choir, actors, dances, and whatever you want. We will bring flowers and quietly pass them to the groom. We will deliver food to the park and arrange a table so that you can celebrate such an important event in your life. We will do everything to make the solemn moment perfect!

    We take care of everything.

    • The groom only needs to outline the proposed concept and participate in the discussion of the main points, and we will negotiate, plan to the minute, and resolve issues.
    • You will always be in touch with a Russian speaking coordinator to plan the moment.
    • Thanks to our experience, we already know what ideas to offer for different romantic places, we have partners and assistants that have been proven over the years.

    Leave the care of the little things to us, and concentrate on the evening with your beloved. For her, an offer in Spain will be a complete surprise, since you will not have to leave, leaving her alone. Spend these days in a fairy tale where everything is for you and professionals take care of you.

    On request, we can also find and book hotels for you and make a tour program for one or two or more days, where everything will be aimed specifically at romance. Our company offers a large number of unforgettable romantic experiences – yacht cruises for two, romantic rooftop dinners, horseback riding and much more. You will see the most stunning places where everything will talk about love and passion, and visit the best restaurants in Barcelona.

    Such an offer will be remembered forever, and, of course, impossible to resist!

    Get married!

    Well, if you have already received the coveted “yes”, then how about thinking about getting married under the southern sun of the Mediterranean?
    Wedding in Barcelona – this is really romantic. Villas with sea views, premium service from smiling Spaniards, delicious dishes from the world’s best chefs. A wedding in Spain is, without exaggeration, the best start to your journey together.

    I’m ready!

    Romantic restaurants in Barcelona

    Barcelona is full of romantic restaurants. The reward for a walk through the old town and its narrow streets is sure to be a charming restaurant. The main rule is to avoid the Ramblas and more touristy places. However, if you don’t want to make a mistake, take a look at my list of my favorite romantic restaurants in Barcelona.

    For those looking for a well-lit, glamorous and lively place, Senyor Parellada is an inexpensive restaurant. The restaurant is located in the heart of the old and picturesque area of ​​El Born and offers Catalan cuisine.

    If you’re looking for first-class cuisine but don’t want to go to the classic Barcelona restaurants, try the quirky Tapioles 53 restaurant. The restaurant only seats 20 people and they don’t move the tables, so a 3 or 5-course sumptuous dinner will take place in a relaxed atmosphere. environment.

    Romantic bars in Barcelona

    As any girl knows, after a great dinner, there is nothing better than a cocktail in a dark and smoky bar. Barcelona is famous all over the world for its original and informal bars.

    Gimlet cocktail bar

    Entering Gimlet, it seems that you are in the 50s. Seeing the wooden bar counter, clouds of tobacco smoke and overdressed waiters, it seems that now everyone will start smoking through mouthpieces and talking like in black and white films. Sit at the bar and tell the experienced waiters about your taste preferences – they will make a cocktail especially for you.

    Hot air balloon ride

    If you want to please your soul mate with something unusual and exciting, then a hot air balloon ride will do just fine. The hot air balloon ride includes not only a flight over Barcelona, ​​but also transportation to the right place by land, as well as a picnic at a bird’s eye view.

    Barcelona Opera

    Our guide to opera houses will give you ideas for choosing a good place to enjoy music. For those who are looking for an unusual and original place, Palau Dalmasses in the El Born area is suitable.

    Cinema on Montjuïc

    In summer, films are shown in the open air in the moat of the castle on Montjuïc. A beautiful sight when groups of friends or couples in love lay out tablecloths, open picnic baskets and bottles of cava before the start of the session.

    This is a very popular pastime, so it is recommended to buy tickets in advance. Before buying tickets, you should clarify in the program which films will be shown in your language. All the details are on their website.
