7. El Celler del Tossal
Restaurant, Spanish, Mediterranean, Vegetarian
This restaurant hides an original roman aqueduct in the cellar-basement. The owners secretly wish to turn this into a wine-pipeline, loving wine themselves and knowing that guests would adore the concept. It’s sadly not quite feasible yet but keep your fingers crossed. El Celler del Tossal promotes three things: rice, hot charcoal and wine. Accordingly, most dishes are rice-based, the fresh meat and fish are cooked on a charcoal grill which gives it its good flavor, and there is a large variety of quality wines to choose from. The décor is modern and elegant, and the staff is professional and friendly.
8. La Comisaría
Restaurant, Mediterranean, Asian
9. Restaurante Trenca Dish
Restaurant, Spanish, Mediterranean, French
