Great place for sushi, tapas and cocktails

We had a great experience at Roots & Rolls: the decoration is beautiful and the food was excellent (special mention for the bao buns!) from the starters to the dessert and cocktails (which are very original and surprising - in a very good way).
Overall we highly recommend!

Creative, exciting, worth it

Vegan sushi is such a trend but they really nail the flavors here. Try the prickly pear and srirago rolls! Savory and veggie forward. I was in a rush and found the service professional and fast which is great—it’s a huge busy restaurant. Points for decor

Pros: Vegan sushi, Interesting combinations , Great decor

Cons: Pricier side but worth it

Nice food in a nice place

We had different types of their uramaki sushi, and also the okonomiyakis.
The sushis were yummy; but somehow we were not blown away.
The okonomiyakis were also delicious, although not exactly as the typical japanese ones.

The staff was friendly, and we were impressed by the size of the restaurant.

All-in-all, nice food in a nice place; with original dishes!

Pros: original menu, friendly staff, nice place

This is a very nice place to have a lunch/dinner.
We ordered 30 pieces rolls plate and some other dishes. Everything was fresh and tasty. Since there were not so many customers at the time we ate , food was prepared pretty fast

Pros: Friendly staff, Relatively big portions

Cons: None

Quite nice, little expensive

We went for lunch but got there and found out they no longer do the set menu. What we got was pretty tasty but expensive for the portion. Rice dish was ok and the stir fry with vegan meat was tasty.

Cons: No lunch menu

Thank you for your visit and feedback.
We still do a lunch menu from Tuesday to Friday 13-16. It's 12,90€.
Mondays we are closed.
The vegan meat is called Heüra in case you also want to look for it in supermarkets. Hope to see you again another time. Kind regards Roots & Rolls

Nice food but extremely overpriced.

I had the popcorn cauliflower and then some sushi. The cauliflower was alright sized but the sushi was 12 euros for only about five or six pieces which is really steep. The food was good but I don't think I'd go again due to the price.

Pros: Lots of options

Cons: Very expensive, Small portions

Hi Katie, Thank you very much for visiting Roots & Rolls.
We are happy you liked the food but of course sorry that you find it too pricy. The uramakis are 12€ for 8 pieces and nigiris 14€ for 6 pieces.
Everything we do is 100% homemade and fresh AND made from quality products. Many ecological, local and carefully sourced. It takes us a lot of effort to make everything from scratch. Hope to see you again another time. Kind regards, Roots & Rolls

Interesting, yummy, healthy food(:

I definently recommend! Just next to the metro station Girona. On the pricy side, but its worth it and if you dont order too much its fine. I loved the modern but homey interior. The waiters were really personal and nice! You neeed to try the gyozas and the brownie with coconut ice cream. Amazing. And all vegan! Yay! Hope you have a great time there.(:

Great

Nice veg focused food. Reminds me of Beyond Sushi in NY. Not my favorite kind of vegan sushi, but it was good for what it was. Their cauliflower popcorn was very good. We also got the okonomiyake, which was interesting. The tofu ramen was just ok. It was too sweet for my tastes.

Exellent

Made reservations here for our last night in town and we were very happy that we did. My niece & I had sushi while my husband got the ramen. We all loved our food and enjoyed the sophisticated (but not stuffy) atmosphere and friendly/perfectly attentive service.

Pros: Delicious food, beautifully presented, Tasteful, contemporary atmosphere, Great service

Go for the Sushi not for the main dishes

We came here because of the stunning reviews.
Sushi is absolutely perfect. Fresh, tasty, what a sushi should be. But we also ordered the ramen and the bbq jackfruit which were surprisingly weird. Both dishes tasted the same: soy sauce with some extra salt. The texture and taste were same for all the ingreditens which is not typical for asian food at all. We did not even it them. So sorry to write this, as it is a great place, but they should either improve these dishes or just focus on the sushi which is brilliant.

Pros: Sushi, Staff

Cons: Ramen, bbq jackfruit, Expensive

Roots&Rolls

22 Oct 2019

Hi, Thank you for he visit and taking the time to review your experience. We are sorry to read that the main dishes did not convince you. Normally these 2 plates should be very different in both taste and texture.
However, we are happy to hear that your the sushi was perfect.
Have a nice day and hope to serve you again another time.

Amazing Experience

I'm still amazed about this place, every dish we tried was fantastic for all the senses. The sushi experience was perfect (checkapy and pickle pear). Very stuffed gyozas, well cooked heura skewers with peanut butter sauce. So tasty BBQ Jack Fruit and brownie to die for (the English cake was equally great). The venue has a relaxed atmosphere. The service was impeccable.

Pros: Everything

Cons: Hard to find one... Perhaps the was a bit hot

Some of the best Vegan food in Barcelona

We took our Barcelona friends here for dinner: this place is more like a restaurant (instead of a small take-out café) which is what we were looking for. The food was beyond our expectations: we kept trying extra dishes since they were all so good. They have lots of Gluten Free options too. The staff was super friendly and speaks English, Catalan/Spanish. The deserts were a bit underwhelming and can use some rethinking, but we only tried 2 of them, so we have to come back to try the other deserts...;-). We cannot think of a reason why you would not want to visit this restaurant when you are in Barcelona. Our Barcelona friends told us they will definitely go back here.... Highly recommended.

Pros: Food is excellent, Many Gluten Free dishes, Friendly Staff

Good rolls! Taste like regular sushi! Not sure about the quality of ingredients!

The place was really hot at the front and the waitress told us that inside they didn’t have the AC. When we walked in to use the restroom they definitely did! We were a bit confused about why she’d do that??? The rolls were great, but didn’t love the bowl. Would come back to have the vegan rolls )

Pros: All vegan

Cons: Not sure about the quality of the food

Hi boni4ka
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. You are right, the summer in Barcelona can be extremely hot and likewise in the open entrance towards the street. It’s seems like there was a misunderstanding with the waitress as we on hot days, always have the aircon in the hallway turned on to keep our guests and staff cool at a more pleasant temperature.
Happy that you liked our sushi rolls and hope to see you another time for more - and seated close to the aircon ☺

Have a lovely day
Kind regards,
Roots & Rolls

First negative vegan experience

This restaurant was extremely overpriced and underwhelming. It seems to focus more on show than substance. The roll I ordered sounded good, and maybe the item descriptions are intentionally misleading, but basically what I got was a mediocre few pieces of sour black rice and pickles. I also ordered a slice of cashew cheesecake, which I figured was a safe bet, as I have eaten several vegan cheesecakes, and never been disappointed. This one had a horrible pasty yet stringy texture, was clearly not made from cashews at all, and had an overpowering coconut flavor. I couldn't even eat more than 1 bite.

Hi VeganInitiate
We are very sorry to hear that you didn’t enjoy your food and experience at Roots & Rolls. We always aim to give our guests a delicious and unique experience. From your comment it sounds like you had the PicklyPear uramaki which has pickled daikon, poached pear and beetroot inside and a teriyaki walnut on top. It’s quite a unique combination and its one of our more popular rolls so we are very sorry to hear, that it didn’t live up to your expectations. Same for the cheesecake. Together with the cashew nuts, we use coconut milk and coconut oil to give it a unique twist. The quality of what we make is high priority for us and everything we make is home-made and elaborated from scratch.

Have a lovely day and thank you for taking the time to give us feedback.
Kind regards,
Roots & Rolls

Romantic night out

This is a lovely place for a romantic night out. The menu takes dishes from around the world and spins it into plant-based creations. Our favorite was the ramen, which actually tasted more like a French onion soup... go figure! The sushi was beautiful... but kind of bland if I'm being honest. Everything else was an explosion of flavor, all the way to the vegan desserts!
