Bar Mut

The 25 Best Restaurants In Barcelona 2024

"If you mention Bar Mut to anyone who’s been to this spot off Passeig de Gràcia, the response will invariably be “aaaaah” as they go all googly-eyed thinking about that excellent meal they had there. Bottles of wine line the walls in this classic, cramped, bistro-like bar with high wooden stools and marble countertops. You’ll find daily specials on the chalkboard, but a few staples include the seasonal croquettes, steak with either mushrooms or foie gras (depending on the time of year), or the lobster cooked with egg and brandy. They do take reservations, but if you get there on the earlier side, you can usually squeeze in before the crowds take over, or try your luck on the small patio." - isabelle kliger

19 Best Tapas Bars in Barcelona, From Natural-Wine Bars to Market Stalls | Condé Nast Traveler

"If you visit Gaudí's Park Güell in the morning, make this your stop for a long, leisurely lunch on your way back to the city. As the line between tapas and fine dining becomes increasingly blurred, high-end gastronomic bars like this one are showing us there is more to tapas than fried calamari, croquettes and Iberian ham (even though they serve those too). Sublime dishes like the solomillo steak with foie gras or seasonal mushrooms (depending on the time of year), or the game-changing whole lobster cooked with egg and brandy, are why Bar Mut remains one of city's don't-miss culinary experiences." - Isabelle Kliger

"First stop in Barcelona is Bar Mut. Great vibes, wine, and this house classic of egg yolk, prawns, and crispy potatoes. Hot damn, it's good to be here."—Matt Duckor By Afar Magazine"

Bistro-y dope food, also has a counterpart restaurant across the street that has dope sandwiches. I'd also say there's a really good churro place right up the street (like around the northeast corner that was good af).
