The quality of both the food and the service has gone downhill. Crepes were off the menu. The glasses and the flatware arrived at the table visibly dirty from previous use. We ordered a salad that came overdressed to the point of it swimming in a cloyingly sweet vinaigrette. The "canelons" came stuffed with barely warm frozen spinach and topped with a pasty, turmeric-tinted cheese sauce that did it no favors in either appearance or taste. We couldn't figure out what was used as the pasta. The duck confit wasn't bad, but there's definitely better to be had in town.

Food was amazing! I don't remember the names of the tapas we ordered but everything was delicious!read more

Very flavorful and fast experience. Oxtail and mashed potatoes 10/10: the oxtail meet is so tender and flavorful. The mashed potatoes pair so well with the oxtail. Mushroom, steak, and egg yolk 9/10: soo flavorful and balance of veggies and protein. Amazing textures and flavors. Sparkling sangria: 8/10 I don't normally live the taste of alcohol but this was great. Not tooooo strong and if tastes pretty good if you mix it with the orange juice. Fresh orange juice: 10/10 so tangy and delicious. I can't recommend it enough. Patatas bravas: 9/10 solid no complaints! Dessert Tapas: - bread dessert (Tarija): 11/10 amazing dessert that is creamy, cameralized, and has a mochi like texture. This fried chewy dessert is not too sweet and such an affordable price. - coconut pudding 9/10 solid and refreshing if you like flan - bread, chocolate oil, salt 7/10: I live the complex flavors. The chocolate mousse was light and the bread to mousse ratio was perfect. It's a smaller dessert tho I wouldn't recommend it if ur sharing. Service: amazing! Staff I'm everywhere so it was very easy to order more food. Also we were sitting buy the area where they made dessert and they allowed me to record them making it!! Comfortable ambiance great for date night or casual meals!!!

One of my favorite dining experiences in Girona! The food was exceptional--succulent lamb chops,…read morerich and comforting cannelloni, and crispy fried artichokes with romesco sauce that I still dream about.

Truly an unforgettable meal and experience.

Good food is easy to find in Girona. Exceptional food is more of a rarity. El Cul del Món hits it…read moreon the head; beginning with this beautiful stone building and impressive metal sign that greets you, big and bright windows are welcoming from the dark street outside. Everything about El Cul was divine. The appetizers (Moroccan salad, pumpkin soup, and meat selection) were tasty and just the right portion. The artisanal bread did come with a 1.10 supplement fee - kind of tacky but entirely worth it. And the olive oil? Good grief that stuff is liquid gold. Get the bread for the olive oil alone! My lamb shank entree was a very hearty serving and cooked to perfection. Crispy on the outside and succulent in. My friends had the chicken cannelloni which was much more petite yet still delish. (Save your pasta ordering for Italy. They do great rice dishes in Spain and this was tasty, but vai a Italia per la pasta della nonna!) Other friend's sea bass was cooked to perfection. Chocolate desserts, oh my! Yup, get those too.

Walk a few blocks away from the water closer to the residential areas and you'll find Cal Negre. Literally a redone house with a large kitchen/fume hood in the middle of the building. We sat outside on a nice warm day and literally we're on the patio of the house. It's like eating in someone's back yard. Specializing in the seafood from the Cap de Creus that Roses is right off of, they also have some other Catalan fare. However you'd best focus on that seafood. Tiger prawns, langoustines and one of the best l'arròs de llagosta I've ever had. A whole lobster on top of an amazing bed or rice with a bunch of surprises throughout. As I kept digging we found mantis shrimp (galera), small harbor crabs (franqueta?), and txipirones (small squid). So damn good across the board. The family were super nice to us and they could tell we were enjoying their food. One of the servers also took the time to teach us some Catalan so we could learn more about the food. If you make your way up the Costa Brava and pass through this area, drop in, get a pitcher of sangria and enjoy some amazing local seafood

Hungry after visiting the Dali Museum, we searched for a place to eat. I saw this place on google…read moremaps with some good reviews and the few reviews on Yelp concurred, so we decided to go for it. Boy, were we glad we did. Aside from warm and friendly service, each dish was presented with a thoughtful, artistic touch. The restaurant itself was petite but the clean lines and laid back vibe evoked a design aesthetic that permeated through decor and dishes. Everything was perfectly cooked. The tenderness of the pork and freshness of the vegetables, fish and seafood spoke volumes of the cooking technique as well as emphasis on local and seasonal ingredients. If I had one knock it would be the paella was slightly too salty, but aside from that, bravo! We didn't have time to try desserts but if we ever come back to Figueres would love to visit this place again.

First off the location is simply stunning. The old part of the city is a fascinating brick structure that is quite old, but still being lived in. The interiors are quite moderns. The restaurant also has apartments that are available to rent and from what Ive seen this would be a fantastic spot to use as a base to explore the area. The restaurant is a family run affair. Introduced to this place by my Uncle who has been coming here for decades (and seen many of the children grow up and now manage etc) it features some fo the best Catlan cusine and its not going to break your budget in the process. The Food: First off we were treated with the table set to make the traditional Catalonian Pa amb Tomàquet or bread with tomato. You take a thick piece of crusty bread and rub it with a piece of locally grown garlic. Then a heirloom tomato slice and rub that on the bread soaking in the oh so good tomato juice. Spread on some aioli and drizzle with olive oil. Its really heaven on a slice. The bread still a bit crunchy has the tomato flavor saturated through. The garlic flavor announces it presence but does not overwhelm. The oh so rich aioli is cut by the EVVO to make one of the worlds greatest pieces of toast. I could eat this every day of my life and it would never get old. (I have a picture of both the setting and the toast). Gazpacho: Again perfect. cucumbers and heirloom tomato blended smooth with a hit of sherry wine vinegar. Served cold and its super refreshing. You can make out each element of the soup individually if you concentrate, but together they are a perfect blend of flavor and texture. The vinegar adds needed acidity and brightens up everything. The EVVO adds richness. A bit of the house made bread for dipping it was also perfect. Jamon Iberico: Whats not to like here? Black Iberian pigs are raised under free range but strict conditions and finished on acorns. The ham is then cured up to 4 years. The best is black lable which indicates pure bred black Iberian pigs. Such is what is served here. The rich meat has a taste similar to egg yolks and is pure joy to eat. This is 100 times better than prosciutto Monkfish: literally fresh off the boat monkfish that is grilled and served with a bit of oil garlic and parsley. It was perfectly cooked. The quality of the fish is such that it simply does not require a lot of gussying up. The flaky meat has a nice texture to it and reminds me a bit of halibut but not as dense. For a fish that is at best described as ugly it sure tastes good. Catlan Apple desert: Not sure what it was called but it was basically locally grown apples made into sort of a mini deconstructed apple pies with some cream on the top. So good!!!!!! This is a must stop if you are in the area. Great prices for what you are getting in a killer space using local ingredients. It does not get better than this.
