One of the oldest still-operating restaurants in the city, this elegantly decorated establishment features beautiful antique crystal, tapestries, and china collectibles as well as fine paintings by world-renowned artists such as Picasso.
As you walk into the restaurant, the host will greet you with a glass of fine cava (Spanish sparkling wine) and almendras (Spanish toasted almonds). The specialty here is seasonal wild game. Our first course was paté de oca (foie gras) and chilled white asparagus. As main courses, I ordered faisan (wild bird) stew with wild mushrooms, while my husband ordered ravioli stuffed with salmon, spinach, and ricotta in roquefort sauce.
The restaurant is very formal, and the service is among the best we experienced. A fixed-price menu is available. Live music serenades patrons during diner. This is a fine-dining experience worth the extra euros.
