Mirablau

The food is good. One item that other reviewer's don't mention is they have this really good fried eggplant fries dish, it looks like french fries kind of but made from eggplant and its incredibly delicious. I think its dipped in honey as per the menu description. Ironically, although it was my favorite dish I never took a photo of it... We ordered a bunch of other stuff, lobster, terimisu, some catalonian creme (brulee? ). The lobster was quite small, but all their food was good and luckily they weren't busy when we went so able to come without reservations.

Mirablau is an absolute gem. The food was amazing fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. Every bite was a delight. What truly sets this place apart is the stunning view. The scenery is breathtaking and makes the entire dining experience feel extra special. On top of that, the service was excellent. The staff was attentive, friendly, and made us feel well taken care of from start to finish. Amazing food, incredible views, and great service Mirablau is a must-visit, and we’ll definitely be coming back.

A restaurant offering incredible food, drinks, and panoramic views of the city! It's definitely worth visiting. I strongly suggest making a reservation to secure a spot on the rooftop. After your meal, enjoy a drink at the bar.

Yesterday upon visiting Tibidabo, we stumbled upon this restaurant. Couldn’t dreamt of a better view. We definitely enjoyed our wine while watching the sunset. The atmosphere was on point too. The service was great. Also, they have two levels and an outdoor patio.

One of the best location for viewing the city while either sipping a drink or sharing small dishes with others. It was a good experience.

Amazing location! Beautiful panoramic view and bus station right outside. The service was great, the waiters know really well English. The food was very delicious. But it did take a little more to arrive. Definitely a spot you shouldn’t miss!

A must see/experience in Barcelona. First and foremost, the views are unparalleled both day & night. The restaurant has inside, terrace and bar seating all taking in the panoramic views. Aesthetically, the restaurant is unpretentious and has a welcoming atmosphere. After dark, the lighting radiates a sheik ambience. The evening I dined with family, there were mixed responses to the food.. the batter on the fried cod could be crispier & hotter, the salmon was okay but not great and the Creme brûlée was a little runny. The pork & potato was highly rated as was the cheesecake. Everyone enjoyed the tapas especially the salted Padron peppers. There is a good wine & cocktail list which complemented the menu. With a bit more attention to food quality, Mirablau could be a 5 star destination. That being said, I would most definitely dine here again. Thank you Mirablau for your lovely hospitality.

One of those hidden gems you always dream of. Really lovely place, best views of the city in the evening. Miguel was my hero. The team were super kind. Will recommend!

There are many tapas places in Barcelona. This is one of the top 5 if not the top. The food is fresh, the plates balanced in flavor, service friendly (shoutout to Andy from the UK), and the views are unbearable. Come here to get away from the city center and enjoy the allure of Barcelona.

Beautiful view overlooking the city! I came to Mirablau for my birthday! Although my host mom called ahead for window seating once we arrived it wasn't guaranteed and we had to sit by the mirror:( Nonetheless the food was pretty good and the ambiance of the neighborhood was breathtaking. Come here if you want beautiful birthday pics. Later that night they were able to sit us outside on the terrace and the view was breathtaking. You can see Sagrada Familia , Barceloneta, and Montjuic. I would love to visit again, enjoy seating by the window by arriving early, and try other dishes as I was not completely impressed by my salmon .

Mirablau is located in the upper hill area of Northern Barcelona. The mountains give it an amazing view. Magical spot for overlooking Barcelona. The restaurant itself has 3 areas each unique. The I would say regular restaurant is where you enter and has tables with large windows overlooking Barcelona. Down the stairs is a lively club feel area. And also they have outside terraces overlooking Barcelona from the Mountains again. The location in the atmosphere are for sure the selling point here. However the service and food are really good. It's not just the atmosphere they have the food and service also hit very well for a great experience. I would suggest this as a must stop visit while traveling in Barcelona. It is super easy to get to by bus The stop is right in front of the restaurant.

The view is amazing; on a mountain cliff! Customer service friendly. Food not great but ok. Calabaza croquettes very good. Fake Sangria. Improving Sangria would bring it from a 2 stars to 3. Would not return.

Just popped in here for drinks mid afternoon after taking the funicular to the top of Mount Tibidabo. The views!!! We shared a pitcher of cava sangria which was perfect and a bottle of wine! Such a great spot to rest and recharge!

I've been to Mirablau a few times now and it's been more of a miss than a hit. I went here multiple times a few years back and the food was very good - chipirones were crispy, burrata was fresh, and the queso fundido was bomb. However, the quality of food and service has plunged since. Tonight our dinner was served cold, soggy, and overall left a lot to be desired. The only good thing was the burrata which isn't difficult to mess up so... Another qualm was the service. It seems they could greatly benefit from hiring 2-3 more people so everyone is attended to in a timely fashion (and provided hot food). By the end of dinner the waitress and manager seemed exasperated with everything making it that much more unenjoyable. Come for the view and a drink, but don't stay for food.

It was one of my fav restaurants in Barcelona. The view was amazing. We decided to take the metro from our Airbnb and walked the rest of the way. But didn't realized that it was a hike...like legit we were hiking up to get there. So fair warning...make sure you wear the right shoes, or take the taxi. We had a reservation, but my friend had the days mixed up. They were still able to accommodate us, so thumbs up! We sat right by the amazing view. You could see pretty much all of Barcelona from here. We ordered Sangria and a bunch of tapas. All were really good. Recommend to share if you have a bunch of people.

Wow! Only a few days into my trip and we stumbled upon this little gem and so glad we did! The views...aweome. The food...awesome. The customer service...awesome!!! Hands down this place was great.

An absolutely excellent view. We stopped here for a few drinks with an excellent view and it definitely has an excellent view. Get there early or reserve a table overlooking the landscape or you will be stuck sitting on the interior. They do have many wonderful selections for dinner as well. Cheers!

Great restaurant near the Tibidabo mountain; perfect for a post-hike snack. Vegetable pesto ravioli was a nice carb that energized me for another long walk. Nice waitstaff that accommodated a native English speaking group well

Granted, the views from atop Tibidabo are splendid - but here you can sit on a shady veranda and literally hang over the city with a beer. Sorta hard to top. They feature live jazz in the evening. On a hot summer night in BCN, this is where to be. We enjoyed cheese and olives and sucked back a cool beer on a clear afternoon. Wow. Mellow hardly describes it. After the tram ride down, and before crossing the street to enjoy a meal at La Venta - this is the place. Highly recommended.

The food was decent, but the view was incredible. We really enjoyed the pear and gorgonzola salad and tuna sandwich. The burger tasted like a frozen patty. But again, amazing view and cocktails, so it's definitely worth a trip.

Stunning views of the city from here. Get here by 4:30 though, if you want a table by the window. Food and service were also great.

Best view of beautiful Barcelona! Located up a very steep road is Mirablau! Thanks to the recommendation of a really sweet local, we made our way here after a long day of traveling back to Barcelona from Switzerland! Immediate when you walk in , you have an amazing view -the windows are huge and panoramic and almost every seat has a great view. The menu here is pretty large, and it took a bit to decide what we all wanted. I tried several tapas, including really delicious smoked peppers and tasty croquettes. When in Barcelona it's nearly impossible to say no to Sangria, so we split a pitcher. Their Sangria is very good, but my girlfriends noticed it was a lot sweeter than some of the others we had. Overall, the prices here are incredibly inexpensive and the food is quality! I also appreciated the service - even without reservations, we were seated promptly and enjoyed a great meal!

Mirablau has huge open air windows that frame one of the best views of Barcelona. I can't see anyone stepping into this place and being disappointed. It has solid tapas as well and there is a bar downstairs with excellent views as well.

Great drinks and good prices. We did not have any food just a late night drink. This place does not get busy until around midnight...yes i said midnight. That's the way they do it in Barcelona. We will definitely return and have lunch. You can take the little blue tram and it will drop you right off in front. Loved the Gin Tonics.

I saw photos of the view from Mirablau and had to check it out. My fiancé and I went for lunch. Unfortunately we were there on a cloudy day but the view was still very nice. The food was pretty good, not the best I had in Barcelona but still pretty tasty. We went for the view not for the food as I had read in other reviews. The burrata was very good and my favorite thing we had. The chicken strips were good and had a nice dipping sauce. The muscles were different than what we typically eat in America, too fishy for us. All in all it was a pleasant experience.

If you're ambitious enough to go to Tibodabo mountains on one of the stops of the hop on hop off tour and then decide "Oh snap I don't wanna do that 1+ hour hike." Get on the public 196 bus and go to the top stop to get some lunch at this place because the view is spectacular. From here you can see a wide panoramic view of the entire city and feel the sun beaming down on you. There is also an elementary school right below the restaurant so you can hear the school children playing and laughing while you're enjoying your meal. Some restaurants that offer great views have high prices and do not have the best food because they figure they can get away with mediocre food in exchange for a nice ambiance. This was far from the truth as the prices did not reflect their prime real estate and the tapas were as good as any of the places in Barcelona. Another huge plus is this place offers vodka that's not Absolut. They offered us Grey Goose for the same price and the waiter's pour was extremely hefty.

Food was mediocre, but the view was great. Jamon was much better elsewhere. The gin drink was especially good. Would recommend just grabbing drinks around sunset and moving camp for a nicer dinner.

My friend and I were on vacation from Dallas, tx and my hotel recommended this place for dinner. The only reason why I didn't give it 5 stars is because the food wasn't the best and our communication with the servers weren't great. The view is breathtaking. The drinks are amazing, downstairs is 2 additional areas. The first area is a cocktail area where you can also see the view and then you can step down a few steps and sit outside and eat as well. I feel everyone should visit this place. Very romantic too.

SUMMARY: Great food with the best view! FULL STORY: Lovely open-air walls/breezy windows framing a gorgeous view. Can be tough to get a table by the window at times... but worth the wait! Really enjoyed the salads, blistered peppers, and patatas bravas (best ones we had in BCN). Service was pretty quick and friendly. Lovely afternoon! Note: Can take the trolley for a trip up the mountain.

You can do a nice walk in the mountain and after the nature you can enjoy then the tapas with this amazing view

I am highly disappointed in their service. My family and I went there for our last night in Barcelona. While being there, we had told our server about my extremely severe nut,peanut, and shellfish allergy, however; the server failed to understand our concern brought out our salad that had pine nuts in them. Although we had asked her to be certain that there weren't any nuts or peanuts in the salad, she did not mention that the dressing has pine nuts in it. Luckily, I didn't get an allergic reaction and believed that this event could have been prevented very easily. I recommend that no one should visit this place because the servers cannot understand any concern or special requests that are needed. I wish the restaurant owners would take more pride in listening to their diners and what they need. Very sad about how it turned out.

Great views and excellent food! We enjoyed the salmon tartare and above average local favourites. If you want to enjoy the sun there's an area outside as well - one level under the entrance. A perfect brunch spot!

I'm giving this place 5 out of 5 because of the view. It was just perfect. With it being our honeymoon, the ambiance fit perfectly. Highly recommend this place to out of towners. Its worth the hike up the hill or a cab will do. After your last sip of your cocktail, head over the the lamb restaurant down the hill---you won't be disappointed!!!

Great place to stop and have lunch when you visit tibidaba. Tapas are very good and prices are cheap. Views are amazing. Must get the Russian salad. Very delicious.

The view from the restaurant is amazing. The food is so-so. Had the Pan Con Tomate which was served cold and soggy. Hubby had some chicken, walnut salad something. The salad seemed like it was from a package mix and parts of it had gone bad and were a little slimy. We didn't complain (which we should have) but the waiter also didn't comment on the fact that only 3 or 4 bites were taken. I expected he would ask if it was ok since the majority of it was still in the bowl when he took it away.

Extraordinary View of the city (get there around 5:30 during December, for sunset), and great selection of scotches. Very romantic, awesome place to start the evening with a couple of drinks before dinner.

A spectacular view and pretty good food (not the best, but pretty good). Don't miss this place if you are in Barcelona. The tapas is good and the Mirablau salad is fantastic. Highly recommend it.
