Two stars

Only four restaurants in the whole city have been awarded with the two-star distinction. Two of them are in Eixample: Moments, in Passeig de Gracia 38 and Lasarte, in charge of Martín Berasategui and with a Basque touch in its cuisine,on Mallorca 259. Both of them offer creative cuisine. Make a note that Lasarte only offers dinner.

In the lively Vila Olimpica, in the famous Hotel Arts and close to the sea, you will find Enoteca (Marina street 19), with a really attractive decor and modern Mediterranean cuisine.

And the last restaurant from the list, Àbac, can be found in the upper part, Sarrià (avinguda Tibidabo 1). The restaurant has been beautifully designed and presents a wonderful terrace and garden. The kitchen, run by chef Jordi Cruz mixes creative cuisine and excellent technique.

There’s no need to say that all the restaurants present an interesting wine list. You can check the websites for prices of tasting menus, that range between 130 and 160 € approximately.
