Con Gracia
Con Gracia is a renowned restaurant in the heart of Barcelona. Located in the district of Gràcia, the restaurant specialises in seasonal Mediterranean cuisine. Launched in 2004 the restaurant is perfect for a romantic meal or special occasion.
Con Gracia offers two set menus which mix local cuisine with international flavours to create delicious food. The eight course “experience” menu is exciting as each dish is unveiled to you as it arrives at the table. We won’t ruin the meal by telling you what’s included but suffice to say each dish is immaculately prepared, cooked and explained. The food is complimented by a generous five glass wine tasting experience. The cost for this menu is €100 per head including wine pairing.
The restaurant is inviting and the staff are extremely knowledgeable and friendly, encouraging you to identify the unique flavours in each dish. There are calls for this restaurant to receive a Michelin star. We’ll let the experts judge that for themselves but one thing is for certain, the food, service and environment are certainly befitting of international recognition.
As well as the “experience” menu, they also serve a seasonal “tradition” menu with dishes such as octopus with kimchi, black garlic and violet potato and stewed chickpeas with crayfish, plankton and wild fish rice. The main dishes include roast meat and foie gras cannelloni with an “idiazabal” cheese moose and iberian feather loin with desserts like pineapple and coconut jelly with cava.
Con Gracia is a must when you’re in Barcelona. Be prepared for a memorable experience in one of the best cities in the world.
