My wife and I just returned from our first vacation in Barcelona. What a fabulous city. So much to offer. I selected this restaurant for two reasons. Firstly because of the reviews and secondly because it was open on Sunday, a hard day to find an open good restaurant in Barcelona. The restaurant fulfilled the second part in that it... more

Pros: top notch service (very kind + professional, also in French and English), great food, nice presentation. Cons: not ideally located, and maybe a little bit overpriced indeed. An 'ordinary' bacalao as main course is already around 25 EUR, if you take more exotic fish you can go well above 35 EUR/dish, however I found the level of sophistication (both... more

I agree that the ambiance is wonderful and Els Pescadors is located in a great little square. Not just that, but the service is indeed excellent. The food however, did not live up to its price (nor did the portions). I had been told by locals that this was the best fish in town, but I was sorely disappointed. more

The terrace is a lovely place to eat lunch when the weather is good. The fish is great, and the rice dishes are marvelous. They are apt to be heavy-handed with the salt though. I went twice and found that to be the case each time. Also, while their wine list is good, they have too few half-bottles; makes dining... more

I don´t know who has written all these reviews, but I wasn´t that impressed with the restaurant. Firstly it is hard to find. If you are in a taxi it may be easier, but if you are driving or taking the metro it is a bit of a search. The plaza where the restaurant is located is beautiful and that... more

Amazing! The best place in Barcelona to eat rice dishes like paella! Would recommend to ask for the terrace in summer or at least at the first saloon, the one that you find at the entrance. You will feel like you are at a small village from la Costa Brava instead of being in Barcelona... more
