Charming restaurant, quiet. Even though we sat next to the kitchen, they were really silent. I didn’t rate it a 10 because the waiters don’t speak Catalan, which is a strange thing given that the village Xerta, majority of people there speak Catalan (my grandpa is from there so I know). Food was delicious and the executive menu a super good deal.

Our second visit to Xerta; this time to enjoy their Menu del Día. I had some Fork vouchers from work, and well timed for a small celebration. The menu - 3 snacks each to start, starter, main, desert, petit fours, bread, water & 2 glasses of wine. In short, a faultless fusion of The Ebre and more local ingredients, inspirations and execution. Wonderful staff (if not a little all over the place) but we were in no rush. We look forward to returning again soon, as this is THE best 1 Michelin star menus in Catalonia.

I expected a lot from a Michelen stared restaurant. Nothing was tasty, service was not attentive and very slow. Even the olive oil taste was dull and the bread was dry.

The place is cute enough and the food generally tasted fine, but the oysters gave me food poisoning and I spent the whole night sick. Would not recommend.

The beef was overly salted and the sausage was too heavy, desert was cute but overly sweet. Overall, quiet disappointing experience. The service was good, but doesn’t make up for the food.

Food is great. But the alternative options for vegetarian and non-alcohol drinker were a bit limited. Overall, it is a great experience to enjoy Catalonian local produce and enjoy the local cuisine.

Ya conocía este restaurante, pero ha mejorado. Tomamos un menú ejecutivo a 45 Euros y fue muy completo. Al llegar nos invitaron a un vermut de la casa riquísimo. Aperitivos y un excelente pan con aceite. Los platos muy acertados y las cantidades suficientes. Los postres también ricos. Con el café puedes escoger las mignardises, gran surtido y de calidad. Sólo haré una pequeña crítica. Los petit fours se sirven junto al café no un rato después. También que la camarera hablase un poco más catalán ó castellano porque no se le entendía apenas. Muy amable pero habla tan bajito y mal, que escogimos por la vista. La próxima vez le pediremos que nos hable sólo en inglés, seguro que nos enteramos mucho más. La atención fue muy buena. Salimos contentos y muy llenos.

It has a Michelin star but the food is not quite up to that standard. They have original ideas about the way they serve the dishes, but the dishes are a bit disappointing. The starters were great, after that it went downhill. Not dramatically, but there are many other restaurants in Barcelona doing better and without Michelin star. We didn't have the feeling we payed too much so after all it wasn't a bad experience but an interesting one.

Outstanding service & gastronomy. Not pretentious. Thoroughly enjoyable. Love how they honour the local Catalan produce. Well worth our trip from Canada.

A joy to have lunch here. Impeccable service and an absolute food sensation. My lamb chops were the best I ever tasted. The abundance of bread and friandises complemented the high level experience.

Excellent food, fantastic service. We decided for the harmonized degustation menu, although the full experience was really good, wine could be better.

Obvious passion for the chef’s roots and local ingredients. Inspired choices in the creativity of the dish combinations, but really over the top with the extraordinary wine pairings. The wine pairings also feature local wines that enhance each focus ingredient in a pleasantly surprising way,

Superb food, great presentation and very interesting. Service was the downside. We waited for wine service, often feeling like glasses were getting too empty. Guests should not be prompting service requests, especially not at a Michelin star labeled restaurant.

Very quiet subdued ambiance, attentive service, tables spaced apart appropriately, everything was perfect for us to focus on the evening’s culinary experience. We decided on the Homage Tasting menu. Dishes were described & relationship to what inspired it’s creation presented succinctly. I am in love after last night with Catalan cooking.

Food was OK, but not any near to other Michelin star restaurants we have been… so it was on the disappointing side, although it was as tasty. The service was not very good, specially for having a star. One of my colleagues was told of for going toilet without letting them know (?), and on three occasions I had to remind them to bring the paired wine to my plate… this should not really happen!

Amazing food. In my top 10 of Barcelona and I’ve been to more than 350 restaurants in the city. Wine pairing was extremely good. I will be back soon.
