We visited for a dinner experience one night during our week-long stay in Begur…read more They offer a well varied selection of reinvented classic tapas dishes to choose from. We were advised to order three or four seasonal plates each, and then the service and kitchen team organized our selections into an elegant tapas tasting titillation. Service was very friendly, yet efficient and timely when necessary. Wine list was nicely put together with mostly affordable Spanish gems. Dining room is smaller than small, filled with characters, an equal mix of tourists and Spaniards alike. Don't go here for a romantic/quiet dinner! There are limited tables - this place is very popular - so, make sure you have a reservation. Not sure if they are open for lunch service - I think they serve dinner only.

A small cozy restaurant is tucked away in Begur on the Costa Brava, Spain…read more The chef is Sergi Climent who has been written up in the Michellin guide. The food is more a Catalan style "tapas" that is created by Sergi. What Sergi seems to strive for is emphasizing the different favors as he works his magic. I have eaten here several times and each time I come away thinking how great the meals were. Catalan has many fine restaurants and this restaurant just made the fine restaurants list larger.

Overpriced fish dish with bones throughout...so sad when you really want some good Mediterranean food. Chef is not qualified. Main dishes arriving when appetizers not at the table. And so much more, please don't bother. (I only write good reviews, rarely a bad one. I just don't write if its bad,but this is a small village and you should try a different place.)

Comparatively, the inside area is smaller but comfortable. We sat inside, despite it being a nice evening, but since it was a bit chilly, later other parties chose inside too. The restaurant is a bit outside the main pedestrian area of Begur, but worth finding for the two dishes we really recommend there: the pigs trotters and the duck magret. I have to take the word of the person who had the pigs trotters, but my duck was exceptional. Just a family operation, so service a little erratic, but can get by with English, and service is friendly and helpful.

We visited Casa Juanita three times for two lunches, and a dinner experience during our week-long…read moresojourn in charming Begur. Some days were better than others, as far as cookery and service went at this establishment. But, we didn't mind, because at the end of each meal we received healthy home-cooked local cuisine, featuring the freshest seafood. O.K., the fish was a little pricey, but, the good and cheap vino balanced everything out! O.K., a few dishes were a bit too salty, but, hey nobody is perfect. The unassuming entrance to this restaurant adds to its charm, located off the Calle Pi I Rallo (a good chunk of restaurants are located on that lane). A primitive looking wood-fired oven is in the back left corner of the narrow dining room, where we could see the chef preparing a majority of the grilled/baked dishes; the service dispense bar is to the right. When everything is going well, this is a charming little place, and if it wasn't for the slight inconsistencies mentioned above, I would have given it a perfect review, 5 out of 5. Just be patient if things aren't running so smoothly!

The paellas are excellent along with the seafood. Pulpo a la Gallega is excellent-- octopus is impossibly soft and tender. Their grilled tuna is my favorite entree but the steak is also excellent and so is the grilled squid. Salads are also nice and varied. Service is efficient-- they are extremely busy in the summer so they need to be quick--but accommodating and friendly. Views are spectacular. You dine facing the small inlet dotted with picturesque fishing boats. Small pedestrian area for kids to run around after dinner as you linger to hear the lapping waves. Reservations are a must during the summer.

On our last day in Begur, we visited this spot for a memorable lunch. It is a tapas buffet of a…read moresort. The everyday good Spanish food and wines, friendliest service style, and the retro modern interior design and decorating, all created a nice vibe. The concept is really lovely: find a table, order your drinks from a server, then, go here and there and find what you like at their different culinary stations. Every time you go to one of the counters, you pay first before receiving what you ordered, and it runs all very smoothly. Order what you want, when you want it, get up, get some exercise and socialize to and fro, too! An open courtyard adds a lovely dimension to the restaurant space, with tables scattered here, there, and everywhere, filled with all sorts of people having a good time. This is a very festive and fun establishment, and I totally recommend it.
