If I could give it zero stars I would
Extremely disappointing. The wait staff was quite rude. Menu is very mushroom-heavy and left me with little choice. The braves were just okay but the pa amb tomaquet was divine. The cacio e pepe barely had any pepper, it said it only had a splash of truffle but was drowned it in it to the point it overpowered the whole dish and it wasn't edible. The only positive was that I was able to replace it with the burger at no extra charge and I was willing to leave it at that but a couple of hours later I got extremely bad food poisoning at a remote area and if it weren't for the kindness of two strangers, it'd have been humiliating. Avoid.
Pros: Nice vibe
Cons: Bad service, Mediocre food, High prices

very very dissappointing - bad staff bad portions, - Edit
While we were in Barcelona, we stumbled across this very enticing modern trendy restaurant and being vegetarian we we delighted with the prospect of a gourmet experience. So in we went. we ordered a shared starter of mixed croquettes. These arrived alone on a plate no garnish , no salsa no nothing. Tasted ok but lacked seasoning. For our mains we decided to have the courgette rolls. These arrived, four thin rolls stuffed with scrambled egg on a bed of cold pumpkin soup or sauce. Nothing else. The portion was really only a starter size and at 11.90Euro one would expect a side of rice or bread?? Not really worth the cost but tasty. Now for the service, it was awful. Nobody came by to see how we were with our food. at the end of the first course the waiter took away our plates and left the dirty cutlery behind. In light of the ambience and the prices on this place has it would be expected to have a change of cutlery. No water was offered either. As mentioned our main came on a sauce layer. so one wonders how the staff expected guests to eat this given forks? we tried to get the staff attention to ask for spoons but as they were way too busy chit chatting at the front of the venue my partner resorted to going up and asking for one himself. Rather than suggesting she bring them to us the waitress simply handed him two spoons as she carried on talking to her colleague! After this we decided to eat up and leave and not have dessert of coffees etc. We asked the waitress how long the place was open for and she said 5 months and I can say it may not be open much longer if they don't improve service, as they clearly know not of what this means. The bill was 40 Euro for one starter, two paltry mains, and two juices. We left feeling hungry and robbed. I really do not agree or believe that the positive glowing reviews on here are real or if they are they are rare and not the norm.
Read moreMy suggestion is if you do go there be mindful of the small portions, the poor service and the fact that the staff are not vegetarian and so do not really know what they ARE DOING.
i WISH I had met the owner as i would loved to have shared my experience with her/him and see what she felt about it.
The staff apologised but didn't really get it it. We were given a jar of sugared almonds as a gesture of good will. However we still needed a dinner after this! To conclude don't bother it is a dis-service to vegetarians and gets vegetarianism a bad na
Pros: location
Cons: service, price, small portions
