In his namesake restaurant in Barcelona, he creates an authentic Catalonia-inspired menu using only certified local ingredients that are sustainable, organic, and ethically sourced wherever possible. Sergi de Meia's commitment to not only outstanding cuisine, but also to the environment and the community is impressive. A friend and I enjoyed an outstanding dinner at Sergi de Meia. The staff was wonderful, providing impeccable and attentive service that goes above and beyond the standard of hospitality. I thought the restaurant design was beautiful, and while the space is narrow and deep, the décor is light and contemporary, which makes for a great atmosphere. We share similar tastes, so my friend and I each ate the same dishes. We started with a taste of cauliflower cream, with pea shoots and crushed nuts. The cream was smooth and the nuts added a crunchy texture. The local asparagus with sheep's cheese cream and herbs was fresh and earthy, the vegetable tender and not tough, while the cream was salty and seasoned with the right mix of herbs. We also tried eggs and potato riojana style, and the flavors really gave a sense of the famous region of Spain. During the main course, we enjoyed fresh fish from the local market, with fresh green peas, chanterelle and saffron, which added a beautiful dose of color. We also loved the dish of local sheep, pumpkin, egg and cheese, as the texture provided an outstanding mouthfeel and is the epitome of local comfort food. For dessert, the server recommended the specialty chickpea fritters with cream, which use the traditional Catalonian chickpea flour. They were sweet and dense, a perfect way to end the delicious meal.

It was incredible to think that the Chef that arranged the menu, brought our food, gave us a bit of a story behind the dishes. All while looking over as the crowd steadily built through our dinner. It is such a rare dinning experience. We had a prefix menu with some options to select from. The timing was great, not fast giving you time to enjoy every bite. The food was hot which was important since it was such delicate dishes. So much flavor, we tried food outside our comfort zone and loved it. Chef Sergi really nails the pairings in food selection. I do not believe you can get a better meal than here in all of Barcelona. We only wish he had a restaurant in Los Angeles, California.

This included beer or wine, bottled water, bread and oil to start, and four courses including dessert. An additional bottle of wine is just 8 euros, very honest and fair of the restaurant! The menu has few options, so if you are very picky or have allergies, it would be wise to contact the restaurant beforehand. The place is nice. Not fancy or overdone, just simply well designed with some interesting elements. The sort of place where it seems to direct your focus solely to your table, allowing the food to command your full attention. The plates are explained in great detail as they come out. The bread was delicious!! Freshly baked, perfect chewy bite. Our next two courses were a quail dish and an asparagus soup topped with crispy prawns. For the mains, I got the leg of lamb that came with some veggies underneath. I also tried the other option which was a lighter take on fish and chips (minus the chips!). Everything was executed beautifully. Wonderful and interesting flavor combinations, perfect temperature, also perfect portions. I'm not entirely sure what the desserts were, but one was a chocolate dish with some passion fruit sorbet and the other was a cold fruit sorbet type thing...... oh I'm not describing it well. Both dishes were also incredibly creative and made with modern gastro techniques. I think coffees were also included in the price. Everyone in my party greatly enjoyed the lunch. We had two "foodies" and the other two more simple eaters who typically scoff at "pretentious food". However, they also really loved it since flavors were so on point. Food quality is also very high. For 20 euros, it is on the higher end of lunches, but I think it was completely worth the price. Highly recommend!!

Be aware: Do NOT waste your money at this restaurant if you are Asians!!!…read more We dined at Disfrutar with high expectations given its 3 Michelin stars, but unfortunately, our experience was extremely disappointing. We were the second party to check in yesterday. However, when several hosts came out, they escorted multiple European groups who arrived after us into the restaurant first, while leaving our party waiting. As an Asian family visiting from the United States, this made us feel uncomfortable and raised concerns about whether we were being treated differently. The situation became even more concerning during the meal. My daughter was holding a glass of orange juice when the glass suddenly broke in her hand and cut her left thumb. A staff member came to clean the table and clearly saw her bleeding finger, yet there was no apology, no concern, and not even a simple "Are you okay?" This lack of basic care and empathy was shocking. At a Michelin 3-star level, service should be attentive, respectful, and consistent for every guest. Unfortunately, our experience made us feel overlooked and unwelcome. At this level, service is not optional--it is a fundamental part of the experience. Being made to feel overlooked and unwelcome, combined with the lack of care in a situation involving a child's injury, made this an experience we cannot recommend. To be fair, the cuisine itself was exceptional--creativity, presentation, wine quality, and overall execution were all at a very high level (close to 10/10). The taste was strong (around 8/10). However, the customer service was extremely poor (1/10), and unfortunately, that overshadowed the entire experience. We hope the restaurant takes this feedback seriously and reflects on how all guests are treated. There are many choices when it comes to fine dining, and service matters just as much as the food.
