    Lemoncello!

    Maccaroni is amazing!!!!!! So good I wanted to curl up and go to sleep wake back up and eat again! The restaurant is very quaint and cute but not a lot of tables. I didn't mind as I was dining alone but not good for big party's. So here is what you do! Sneak away when everyone is sleep and come by yourself and enjoy this amazing gem! The lasagna was to die for!

    This little gem was the light of my time in Spain. It was recommended to me by a friend who found this place while on vacation. It is hidden on a small street within the Gothic Quarter. The actually store front is quite small, probably 3-6 tables, with a choice of eating at the bar. If you are seated near the bar area, you are able to watch the chef prepare the pasta. Did I mention that the pasta is freshly made daily?! I opted to try the tagliatella bolognese with added cheese on top. My goodness gracious, amazing does not even describe how delicious this meal was. The pasta was homemade, freshly cooked, and al dente. The sauce had so much depth, and fulled with so much flavor. Portions were generous as well, so sharing is a possibility. I destroyed the whole meal, and rolled out of restaurant. The next time I am in Spain, this is my first stop! Happy eatings!

    My fiance and I were looking for a place to have a pasta dinner and we found this amazing place! The server provided great suggestions and encouraged me to try their Spaghetti Carbonara y Trufa Negra and it was excellent! My fiance and I both had our own dishes with a glass of Italian wine and a Moritz Lager for only 34,60€! SO GOOD for a great price! I highly suggest visiting this place if you're looking for an off-the-street amazing culinary experience with excellent service!

    My boyfriend and I stopped in here while on holiday in Barcelona. We wanted good italian food and Macaroni did a wonderful job! Cute indoor seating, quiet, and it was quick. I got the carbonara and he got the Arribata. Both pastas were delicious and quite large. It tasted fresh and flavorful! We also checked in on yelp and got a free limoncello shot :)

    Dude. So good!

    Thanks to Yelp, we found this great little spot just down the street from our Airbnb. Turned out to be one of the best meals ever! Loved the decor, food, and vibe. I can see this place being franchised across the world. Seriously. It's that good.

    Super small hole in the wall in he Gothic Area! Simple, but wholesome and delicious! One of our favorite meals in Barcelona!

    This is a little place located in Gothic Quarter with a little bench out in the front. If you're looking for a romantic, fancy dinner - go elsewhere. This restaurant is more fast food/cute spot to get a casual dinner. They make the pasta right behind the window when you first enter, so you know everything is super fresh! I loved the way you order pasta here, they give you a menu with an extensive offering of appetizers and different types of pastas, sauces, and toppings and a marker. You choose what you want by filling in the circle next to the item you want. For appetizer, we had a provolone and cheese dip with bread and for the main we chose 3 different pastas. Gnocchi with pesto, spaghetti cacio e pepe style, and rigatoni with arabiatta sauce. We requested everything be made on the spicier side. The food was good, not the best pasta I've ever had but very flavorful and fresh. The appetizer was yummy as well. You can't really go wrong with a melted cheese and sauce dip. The only thing I was meh about was the gnocchi with pesto sauce - I thought it tasted bland and the gnocchi was a tad bit over cooked. Otherwise the cacio e pepe and rigatoni was so delicious, we finished our plates. One thing to be noted especially is the service, they were so sweet and attentive here. When we first came in, there was no table seating available so we sat down at the bar. But after about 10 minutes, a table opened up and we requested to move there and they quickly cleaned off the table and set us up there, no problem. Also, they don't speak the best English here but they tried their hardest to help us in understanding the menu and how to order without getting frustrated with us. Finally, we didn't think our pastas were spicy enough so we requested chili flakes and the gentleman came back and forth a few times with different options to make sure we were satisfied with what we have. Overall, a great place! Definitely recommend.

    Actually perfect carbonara. Good price. Good service. I've never had traditional carbonara so creamy and the pasta was cooked perfectly! Was quiet when I was there...but just mean my food was fast!

    This tiny pasta place is delicious! When you need a break from the tapas this is a nice place to have lunch or dinner, we spent 2 weeks in Barcelona and ate here twice. Very good food, nice service.

    Ravioli with pesto.

    I came here because my friend recommended it and I am very glad I did! You basically have the choice of any type of pasta, any type of sauce, and additional toppings if you want. I really like how you can personalize it because I can have my favorite type of pasta with my favorite type of sauce! I got the pappardelle with Bolognese sauce and it was amazing. The pasta is very fresh, you can actually watch them making it. My friends got gnocchi with a four cheese sauce and ravioli with a pesto sauce. Both were delicious. Highly recommend coming here, especially because all of the staff was super nice.

    This restaurant was steps from our hotel so we decided to give it a try. We made a reservation…read moresince it was a Saturday night & we were seated right away. It was busy when we arrived but there were still many tables available. The decor was warm & welcoming. Unfortunately I wish I could say the same for our server. He was abrupt & seemed annoyed we were there, not very attentive either. However, our food was wonderful! We ordered two entrees, a beef sirloin dish & a pasta dish. Our food came out fast. The beef were tender sirloin medallions in a flavorful white wine sauce over risotto, very delicious. The pasta was stuffed with truffle served with a porcini mushroom sauce & truffle pearls. A luscious dish...both rich & satisfying. We really enjoyed our dinner!

    Anniversary Dinner in Barcelona -- Pleasantly Surprised!…read more Celebrated our anniversary here at Luigi's while in Barcelona, and honestly, I was surprised that it wasn't as expensive as I expected for a nice sit-down spot in the city. Service was decent and the food came out at a good pace. We started with the Burrata salad (€14), which was super refreshing, especially with the balsamic vinaigrette. We also ordered the prosciutto pizza (around €14), which was simple, tasty, and hit the spot. Of course, I had to try the truffle pasta (about €13) -- creamy and comforting just the way I like it. Hubby ordered the seafood linguine (€15), and that was actually a standout -- light, flavorful, and packed with the perfect amount of shrimp. Overall, such a nice spot to enjoy Italian food in Barcelona without breaking the bank. Definitely a pleasant surprise for our anniversary dinner. Happy eats!
