Kamikaze

I'll be brutally honest with this review. The €85 tasting menu was a big disappointment. While some dishes were decent (the mackerel, for example, was good on its own), many others lacked flavor despite looking visually impressive and sophisticated. A few dishes were simply bland ie. the croqueta was particularly disappointing (and that hurts, because I love croquetas), and the three-piece sponge cake in the last course was almost completely flavorless. A zero-flavor dish like that really shouldn’t belong in a Michelin-starred restaurant. To be fair, I understand that the concept here is to play creatively with ingredients and textures you don’t usually find elsewhere. That idea works quite well in certain dishes, such as the red/pink cocktail and the shrimp with rice-paper “caviar.” Unfortunately, that was the exception rather than the rule. Many of the other dishes felt more confusing than exciting. As for the service: having dined at other Michelin-starred and fine-dining restaurants in Barcelona and abroad, I expected much more. There was little to no explanation or storytelling behind the dishes. While this can sometimes be forgiven if the food truly shines, it didn’t in this case. Attention to detail in the overall guest experience was also lacking things like offering to take jackets or hats at the entrance and returning them proactively are fairly standard in fine dining, yet absent here. Overall, Barcelona has an incredible food scene with many restaurants offering far better food and a more refined experience at similar or even lower prices. For that reason, I don’t see myself returning to Kamikaze or recommending it.

in only ones word: fabulous. the meal was surprising and, in some dishes, they transforms "poor product" in one of the Best. if I need to regret something....the excess in the use of Beluga Caviar. Also, from a few words from us, the sommelier has recommended wines and it seem he'll knew exactly what we want

Had a wonderful meal here whilst on holiday in Barcelona. Such a great experience and well worth the money spent. The food was delicious, full of flavour and creativity, each course was a surprise and a delight. Frederico, our waiter, made the everything more enjoyable by being so fantastic. This was more than a meal, it was like an immersive, food art experience! Thank you!

The dishes clearly show a great deal of effort and creativity, especially in terms of technique. It’s evident that a lot of thought and skill go into the presentation and execution, which is truly commendable. Unfortunately, the texture and taste were not fully balanced across all dishes, particularly the starters. From a personal perspective, there was an overuse of foam and cream, and the menu lacked enough crunch or elements that provided something substantial to bite into. A bit more textural contrast could elevate the overall dining experience. Additionally, the dining room felt somewhat cold during the visit, possibly due to the door not being fully closed or gaps allowing cold air to enter.

Are you looking for a culinary experience? Then this is a great place to - the food was delicious and the presentation spot on! The portions are rather small as distinct as they invite to try a range of different ones. The staff was engaging and friendly - thanks to the Kamikaze Team.

Service is lovely. The wait staff did a good job explaining the dishes. The only dish that is up to our expectation is the desserts, chocolate wasabi saves the experience.

I went recently, and I am sorry for the harsh review but I was honestly incredibly disappointed. Every single dish was lacking in some way. I was very hopeful for this meal because of the good reviews and the well crafted images. However, from the chewy and paste- like residue left from the yolk starter to the jelly veil as the final plate, I simply cannot say I would recommend anyone to spend this much money in Kamikaze. As an additional note, I asked the waiter what inspired the name Kamikaze, the same name as the Japanese soldiers, I was told there was absolutely no relation to these soldiers. I found this very insensitive and disappointing. I hope to see improvements in the future but it will take a lot for me to voluntarily come back.

I really cannot follow those bad reviews I have seen here and which almost made me NOT book this place… or those guys with bad reviews don’t know about haute cuisine or they were starving… we tried the classic menu and will come back for the Kamikaze menu for sure. Go try it out!!
