Disfrutar

We had a 12.30 lunch booking. We arrived 3’ early but were a bit surprised to see people waiting outside -> it feels like the restaurant could have welcomed people in to sit even if they are not formally open yet (Barcelona can be quite hot). Overall the food is impressive and culinarily advanced. However, there were few dishes that were genuinely delightful. Advanced techniques ≠ delicious. Eg, there was a gelatine penne/carbonara dish, which while impressive (the penne is transparent) wasn’t finger-licking good. The wine pairing was nice but quite heavy. The food was good but portioned too largely, we took a break but still felt ready to burst with 5/~28 dishes remaining. There were no towels at the bathroom. Only tissue (which sticks to your hands). The staff were very attentive but didn’t look excited. One of the 3 chefs introduced himself which was a nice touch. Overall a good experience but not an impressive one - at that price point expectations are high.

Prepare for my podcast review 🤣 I celebrated my 30th birthday at Disfrutar, and honestly, it was on a different planet. ​The vibe hits you as soon as you walk in. The design is very Cadaqués/costa brava, with those beautiful ceramics and textures that feel high-end but still somehow cozy and welcoming. It’s elegant without being stiff, which is exactly what I wanted. ​The food is a total trip. It’s a genuine culinary journey where they play with textures and artistic presentations that I’ve never seen anywhere else. Every course is complex and thoughtful, and the wine pairings were a highlight, they are really not afraid to serve things that genuinely surprise you. ​Just a heads up: give yourself plenty of time. We were there for almost 5 hours, but it never felt long. It’s a full-on experience, and you honestly need those 5 hours if you want to enjoy every second. ​The service was exceptional from start to finish. They make you feel looked after without being overbearing. It was a experience and the best gift I could have given myself for the big 30. ​If you want a meal you’ll still be talking about years from now, this is it!

Such an excellent experience. There was very little room for improvement. From the moment we were let in, all staff were very friendly and extremely aware. We ordered the tasting menu and the wine pairing. The food was delicious, with a few exceptional dishes in between. It really was a journey of flavours. The wine fit all the dishes so well. The atmosphere was very pleasant. All other guests were very well behaved and everyone was enjoying themselves. A special mention to Jennifer, David, Talia and Jan the sommelier. They really made our night and we couldn’t have wished for better service. We’re looking forward to returning!

Disfrutar - A Masterclass in Playful Fine Dining If you're in Barcelona and want a meal that's not just food but an experience, Disfrutar absolutely delivers. This is one of those rare restaurants where creativity, technique, and storytelling all collide --and somehow every bite still tastes incredible. Disfrutar is known for avant-garde cuisine, but unlike some experimental places, every dish has soul. Expect surprises, whimsy, and a lot of "wow" moments. Highlights included: * The famous panchino -- an airy brioche with caviar that disappears in your mouth. * The multi-spherical olive, a mind-bending reinvention of a classic. * The cooked ceviche, which flips the idea of ceviche completely on its head. * And of course, the "Disfrutar box" and the playful ending chocolates that make you feel like a kid again. Every course feels like a magic trick you actually get to eat. My favorite part is The Living Table at Disfrutar! THE most memorable parts of the meal. The table literally becomes part of the experience -- drawers open, hidden compartments appear, and the chefs build dishes right in front of you. It feels like a playful culinary performance where the table turns into a stage. It's interactive, surprising, and beautifully executed, perfectly capturing Disfrutar's mix of creativity and incredible flavor.

Disappointing. Had very high expectations but unfortunately the food didn't deliver. We choose the old menu, I'm not sure if it's still there to that day.. Except 2 dishes that were excellent, the Yolk and the Bun with the caviar that was one of the best bites i had in my life, the rest was nothing special. You feel so full half way down and it's just too much food they have to reduce the number of courses. The atmosphere is Cosy and very nice. The level of service is Top notch can't get better than that.
