Suggested by our hotel concierge as one of the best places to dine in Barcelona & after our visit I would absolutely agree. The tasteful warm & romantic atmosphere was welcoming, when we arrived we were seated at a cozy corner table. We had eaten a late lunch so only ordered a couple of items however each was prepared perfectly.... More

Thanks to trip advisor I found this place and it was our first dinner in Barcelona. We loved it so much we came back for our last night in Barcelona. If you're staying near Las Ramblas this place is a nice, brief walk away. We did not have reservations for our first night but got there super early and asked... More

4 of us ate here on Friday evening. Service was friendly, and the food was very good. We arrived at 20.30 and didnt leave until 01.00hrs ! I'm not sure where the time went, but the pace of the meal was perfect for us. Would not hesitate to return.

This lovely little restaurant in the Barri Gothic is outstanding; service, food, atmosphere, music......everything. A lovely place for dinner and a romantic evening, although works equally well for a business dinner. Definitely worth a visit.

PLA is a wonderful place for dinner. My husband and I sat up at the bar (our choice always when the two of us are alone....we love watching the action!). We did have a reservation for a table however and noticed many people being turned away. So, make a reservation should you want to go. The food was delicious and... More

We got a very warm welcome when the 4 of us including children enjoyed an evening meal. The menu is very interesting, with a number of different taste and texture combinations than I wouldn't call mainstream. However all the dishes we tried worked and even the children left clean plates. The atmosphere is very cosy, with candles everywhere and tables... More

Go here if you want an interesting eating experience. The presentation and ambience are so artistic and fun. And the food is also delicious! Definitely try the specials. Don't skip dessert.

after reading a number of reviews and also seeing the trip advisor award for 2012, we thought this should be the restaurant for a special meal. Tried booking by email, they only take phone so we went in and booked for the following night. Looking forward to it we didn't eat a lot during the day. Got to the restaurant.... More

Our favorite restaurant from our 10 day vacation in Portugal and Spain was at Pla in Barcelona. Everything from the appetizer to the dessert was just amazing. Get reservations as they are usually quite busy - we had to wait an hour without a reservation. Well worth the wait though. Staff was super helpful and friendly.

We booked this restaurant after reading the fantastic reviews on trip advisor. The setting is quaint and ambient. The food is mediocre. Although the watermelon gazpacho was flavoursome and the carpaccio starter tasty, the lamb main course was lacking. The meat was succulent and tender but under-salted and the accompanying vegetables too sweet. There were no other sides (potatoes /... More
