El Disparate

Book a reservation online was easy and straightforward on their English website. The atmosphere is natural, sleek and elegant, but not too formal for tourists like us, who only packed sneakers. Food is carefully prepared with well balanced flavor. Only the duck is a bit chewy, pity. Love the artichoke the most! With pistachios, ham and Parmesan icecream, an interesting combination and absolutely delicious.

Fantastic meal at El Disparate on a Wednesday evening in March. The staff were friendly and attentive, with very good English. The food was delicious, we shared the croquettes (fish on the day), oxtail sausage (a special, but if it's available highly recommend), and the eggs (fantastic flavour) to start, followed by the Iberain pork cheek and beef tenderloin - both of which were brilliant in texture and flavour.

The food was generally good and lived up to the standards by the Michelin guide. I especially enjoyed the grilled grouper, which stood out for the most part. The service was excellent, and I really appreciated how accommodating the staff were with all my requests. That said, I found small aspects in every dish that didn’t quite meet my expectations. While everything was well-prepared, there wasn’t a single dish that felt perfect to me.

We came on a Thursday night at about 730pm and the restaurant was not crowded. Overall the food quality was really good, the natural flavors of the ingredients can be tasted. The ambience of the restaurant was nice and quiet. Perhaps it was still early at 730pm, there were only 2 tables occupied with guests. What stopped me from giving the full 5 stars was the service. I cannot complain, the service standards was there, service was prompt and there were at least 3 or 4 service staff around us. What was lacking was the warm and enthusiastic service that we have seen in some other Spanish restaurants over the past week. While service here was good, it was impersonal, no passion or feelings, I would say very in-Spanish. Credit to the chef who did a great job with the dishes. Tuna tartar was fresh. Artichoke carpaccio was a masterpiece paired with cheese and ham, the flavours complimented each other. The risotto was also nicely executed, al dente and flavors were there. Overall a great dining experience.

Food was good and lived up to expectations. Especially red tuna tartar and artichoke carpaccio was fenomenal. The chocolate dessert was boring. Edit: Cabrales cheese bonbon was delightful. Fish of the day good. Portions are a bit small for the prices thou.

What a wonderful discovery. This restaurant is in the Michelin guide for good reason. Excellent Spanish food, a good, inexpensive wine list and great service. The staff wear ear pieces to communicate. This may be why the service is so quick and attentive. We went there two nights in a row.

Absolutely delicious and the staff were welcoming and very helpful, all the recommendations were top thanks to Sergi. We had the artichoke carpaccio, cod fritters, lamb platter, sirloin steak, pistachio cheesecake, and panacota.

The food at Restaurant El Disparate was good, especially the artichoke carpaccio! The highlight of our experience was the attentive service; the staff made sure we were well taken care of. Unfortunately, our table was located near the elevator and reception, which was a bit distracting and took away from the overall ambiance. Still, a decent dining experience with excellent service.
