The food quality was amazing, with high standards and substantial gluten-free options — a big plus for someone like myself with celiac disease. The menu featured an extensive selection of dishes, and I’m looking forward to trying one of the larger platters next time with a group interested in sharing. Portions were moderate, with the risotto being delicious but quite small — best suited as an appetizer. The cuisine beautifully blends Catalan and French influences. The atmosphere was trendy and inviting, with soft lighting and quiet chatter, though the tables were a bit cramped — typical of cozy spots in older buildings. Service was good, and I’d 100% recommend this restaurant to anyone seeking a high-quality meal. I’d definitely go back.
