⭐⭐⭐⭐ Restaurants with three Michelin stars.
Torres Brothers Kitchen
Sergio and Javier Torres created this restaurant, which is the most ambitious of their professional career. A space located in the district of Les Corts that from the outset is striking for its design. It is an old car workshop that OAB architects redesigned to turn it into this wonderful place. It is characterized by three ‘pianos’ or islands where the chefs prepare the dishes. As the brothers themselves say, it is “a kitchen with a restaurant, not a restaurant with a kitchen”.
It also has a green star for sustainability.

They offer us avant-garde dishes through different tasting menus with the option of pairing.

Via Veneto
A classic of the city and of Barcelona’s good gastronomy. Also, as a curiosity, it was one of Dalí’s favorite restaurants. It is seen that the Catalan painter used to arrive with an entourage of guests and organized authentic performances. Once, during a dinner, the genius from Empordà asked for butifarras to hang on his guests as a necklace.
Stars: ⭐
📍 Ganduxer, 10

Hisop
Located in one of the most beautiful passages of Barcelona, the Marimon, a few meters from Diagonal and Travessera de Gràcia. They offer contemporary Catalan cuisine preserving the products of our land and the flavors of traditional dishes.
Of them, the guide says “In his dining room, current-minimalist, chef Oriol Ivern proposes fresh and creative elaborations that review the Catalan culinary tradition, always based on local seasonal products and successful combinations”.
Stars: ⭐
📍 Passatge de Marimon, 9
Dos Palillos
We jump to the gastronomic fusion in this temple located in the heart of the Raval. It is led by chefs whose career went through El Bulli. The result is a concept that pays homage to the tapa as a way of understanding gastronomy. A type of creative cuisine based on Asian gastronomy, mainly from Japan, China and Southeast Asia. They offer a tasting menu and also an extensive menu (the latter, in their Sake Bar).
Stars: ⭐
📍 Elisabets, 9

📍 Via Laietana, 49
Enigma
The creation of Albert Adrià, brother of Ferran, second best chef in the world.. As the guide says, a singular, risky and truly unique restaurant that has regained its pulse, seeking both technical excellence and, above all, the amazement of the diner.
The discreet facade hides a fantasy interior where originality allies with the most radical design to surprise us, as the striking ceilings seem to be suspended. Adrià, bets on a unique tasting menu of about 25 passes that changes every month) in which he deploys all his knowledge, with many of his visual elaborations finished before the eyes of the customer so that he is aware of the countless techniques.
Stars: ⭐
📍 Sepulveda 38
Angle
Another one of Jordi Cruz’s restaurants; besides Àbac, which we talked about before. Unlike Àbac, Angle is an “everyday” restaurant . The gastronomic offer is designed to offer market products with an excellent quality-price ratio.

Captained by Riccardo Radice, this restaurant has captivated critics with an innovative proposal focused on fish and seafood. Its techniques include salting, maturation and cured meats that take seafood to another level.
Stars: ⭐

With it he won a Michelin star in 2013. An elegant space starring a large sushi bar and featuring two tasting menus, in addition to a wide variety of dishes from its menu.

📍 Copons, 7
Quirat
Of Quirat, the guide explains that “chef Víctor Torres, recognized for his work at Les Magnòlies (in Arbúcies, a MICHELIN Star), proposes with his team a current Catalan cuisine that, always exalting proximity products, also respects seasonality to the maximum. Simplicity is only apparent, as the dishes are full of depth and flavor, with reduced and concentrated sauces”.
For example: Oyster, ham broth, Iberian bacon and osetra caviar, free-range chicken and lobster, rice with baby crayfish… they see their dishes as small jewels, that’s why they have named their menus 18K and 24K. They have a small vegetable garden in the same hotel.
Stars: ⭐
📍Avenida de Rius I Taulet 1, Barcelona
Atempo
Another restaurant from the Jordi Cruz galaxy. Modern and spacious premises, with a contemporary atmosphere, which surprises the customer from the very access, as you are greeted with a glass of champagne in a small hall, you are accompanied to a cold room area to take the first appetizer and then you pass in front of the kitchen to access the elegant room, with a profusion of plants and on two heights.
The proposal, based on a single tasting menu designed by the media chef Jordi Cruz, reflects a modern and technical gastronomy that aims for depth of flavor, something they achieve thanks to excellent products and extremely coherent combinations. Details? They seek a fusion between room service and kitchen service, which is why many of the dishes are finished or prepared in front of the diner.
Stars: ⭐
📍 Còrsega 200, Barcelona
Mont Bar
Mont Bar is riding the crest of the wave… or has jumped to the mountain of stars. The Barcelona restaurant is in luck. After its chef won the award at the Fòrum Gastronòmic al Cuiner 2022 a few weeks ago, now the Michelin Guide has recognized it with its first star.
Of the restaurant, the Michelin Guide says that “it is a restaurant, with the soul of a gastrobar, that is becoming a must stop for anyone visiting Barcelona. Faithful to the philosophy marked by the owners, natives of the small town of Mont (in the Val d’Aran), here they work with fresh seasonal produce and proximity, taking great care of the presentations.”

📍 Diputació 220, Barcelona
Aleia

Here, Suto is an ex-bareto converted into a small gastronomic hermitage (16 diners) serving book-style Japanese cuisine.
Stars: ⭐
📍 Violantde Hungría Reina de Aragón 134
Lluerna
A suburban restaurant, in several senses. It is on the outskirts of Barcelona, on the outskirts of the usual prices and therefore, on the outskirts of what we consider a usual Michelin restaurant. The owner couple, with Víctor Quintillà behind the stove and Mar Gómez at the head of the dining room, is committed to a sustainable gastronomy that exalts local raw materials (Gallo del Penedés, Duroc pork, Xisqueta lamb, the pigeons of the Tatjé family…), with updated elaborations that take advantage of the technique in favor of textures and an enhancement of flavor and a surprising offer of menus (Tasting, Vegetable, Presentation, Llue

Alkimia
The guide explains that in the gastronomic dining room chef Jordi Vilà proposes a fresh and modern cuisine with deep Catalan roots, giving an enormous protagonism to fish.
Ronda de Sant Antoni, 41
Slow and Low
A very personal idea of young chefs who make a very fun and complex fusion cuisine, and that has been growing from discretion in a local of Sant Antoni. A restaurant with a modern atmosphere that surprises for its proposal, because it shows technique, creativity and delicacy in equal parts.
It bets for the concept of the kitchen view, that’s why it has two bars that allow us to enjoy the creative process. They defend a traveling cuisine that combines ingredients from around the world and sees the light in two menus (SLOW&LOW and SLOW&LONG), showing clear influences of Mexican cuisine but also winks to the Thai recipe book, with well-balanced acid and spicy touches, excellently linked sauces and a special devotion to both fish and the vegetable world.
