Salts - Terrassa Bar Montjuïc

Visited for lunch and ordered a tuna sandwich. Was impressed with the quality of food and the service. Would very much recommend ordering a side of fries too. Tables overlooking the pool and diving area and also amazing views over Barcelona. The location is perfect and you are able to pick out the landmarks of Barcelona without obstructions. If visiting the castle or cable car would definitely recommend for food and drink. Staff were really helpful, polite and know English which is useful for tourists

A very unique place. This bar uses the venue of the 1992 Olympics diving competition and its iconic views of Barcelona to spectacular effect. People pick up drinks at the bar and then sit on the stands of the Olympic venue to enjoy the drinks, good conversation and incredible views. You have to see it to believe it.

Amazing views of Barcelona and a nice space to enjoy with friends over a beer. In the summer, the pool is open. You can either sit at the restaurant's table or in the outdoor seating.

Salts is an informal poolside bar offering drinks and tapas, to be enjoyed seated at tables on the terrace overlooking the beautiful view that can be admired from Montjuic. It is very nice to come to this place both during the day and in the evening at sunset, to see all the lights of the city light up as darkness falls. Fun fact: this was the pool that hosted diving competitions during the 1992 Olympic Games held in Barcelona

Lovely place! The view it’s just stunning, the service is amazing and the food is so delicious! Recommend and will come again! Love people and atmosphere

We just visited the tribune to have one of the best views of Barcelona. It's possible to walk through the terrace in order to take the stairs to the seats. Very steep stairs and narrow space between the rows so watch out when walking to or between the seats, also a bit dangerous for kids to walk by themselves! Definitely not barrier-free.

After cable car ride we found this bar and we didn't planned to sit very long but after couple of minutes we forgot about everything else. Just sit and enjoy :) Water was helpful and friendly, food was good especially papatas bravas and cheesecake. Amazing view and experience

Love this place, 4th year in a row while on holiday in Spain, well worth it just for the views but the food is great, staff are lovely and atmosphere is very good

While walking to Montjuic castle, we decided to stop over for a bite since kids were getting hungry. There were only 2 choices, the Restaurant or the bar, so of course the obvious choice with kiddos. We looked at the menu, in which is was kind of pricey, but we didn't really have a choice, so decided to try it anyway. We were quickly shown the way to the restaurant as they was also a company party going on. The first thing we noticed was the beautiful view. You get a great view of the city with Segrada De Familia in the background and also the Gothic Cathedral way in the back. We were helped as soon as we sat down. Waiter was very friendly. Food came fairly quickly as well. We ordered their tomato salad, jamon iberico with pan con tomate, jamon croquettes, grilled octopus (super tender for the thickness you get), and cheesecake and white chocolate tarte for dessert. I thought their food was quite tasty. On our way to the bathroom, you could watch the chefs cook their food. Kids loved watching and the chef gave my kids 2 chefs hats. They were really nice and interactive with them. The only downside of the restaurant was waiting for the bill. I think we waited over 30-45 minutes to pay our bill so we could leave. I guess they didnt want us to leave lol.

Amazing restaurant with a view. I went there for a dinner party and the food was outstanding. The service was very efficient but the servers were not that friendly. They need to smile more!

Overall excellent service, ambiance and food... a truly memorable experience. We'd wanted to take some dear friends (from Barcelona) to someplace special to celebrate their wedding vows - and this place was just right. Perhaps because of the pandemic, there were not many diners that evening - nevertheless, they kept a table empty between each dining party. Our table, along the rail, had a stunning view of Barcelona by twilight. Our waiter was very prompt and efficient. He offered menus in English (as well as Castilian and Catalan) and was quick to answer any questions. He provided several tapas and some cava while we perused the menus. He was quick to come whenever we signaled him throughout the meal, but otherwise kept out of sight. The food itself was wonderful! The tapas, the first and second courses, the wines and the desserts... each course was beautifully presented and as tasty as it looked. Overall I felt this place was well worth revisiting - and we intend to!

The restaurant itself is a nice atmosphere a great view overlooking Barcelona. However, that is all it has going for it. They say they are a Michelin restaurant but I just don't believe it. Service- Horrific. The bus boy was so rude. I asked for a clean glass (because mine was filthy) and he rolled his eyes at me and reluctantly gave me a clean glass. Every time he delivered something (water, apps or food) I said thank you. He didn't even acknowledge us. It was SO BAD that I had to pour our own wine. He was pouring other people's wine, except ours. Remember, this is supposed to be a highly rated Michelin restaurant- its EXPENSIVE. Service should reflect the pricing. Food- horrible. Our Tuna had "strings" of something in it- tasted awful and just couldn't stomach it. It was tasteless and just a block of very tough meat. Could have been a brick. See the pictures attached. The vegetables were over cooked, burnt and oily! Table- broken glass and dirty glasses. Do yourself a favor. DO NOT GO HERE. Spend you hard earned $s on a proper Michelin restaurants who actually serves great food along with great service. This place is just the opposite. View the pics attached.

Misleading 5 star reviews......We were the first customers for dinner service on a Monday. The host was very friendly and accommodating. Upon arrival we were ushered past a construction area to the terrace downstairs. The view was lovely. We decided to order one starter salad, the omelette for our baby and ONE mixed seafood paella, to share. When we ordered, my wife specifically asked to share 1 paella since we were not hungry enough to order two entrees. The paella was good, although to call it "mixed seafood paella" is misleading. It was shrimp with two clams... the presentation required us to crack the whole shrimp open with our hands as no specialty silverware was provided. Very messy. At the end of the meal, the server brought us the bill, he charged us for TWO paella entrees! We very rarely share and I am happy to pay a fee to share a dish, however the server did not communicate we would be paying for two entrees. Had we been told "sharing one entree is not permitted here" perhaps we would have ordered something else, like steak. It felt unethical to be charged for an item we simply did not order. This is NOT fine dining, albeit close to fine dining prices. I decided it wasn't worth my time to fight for 30 euros but I definitely put a bad taste in my mouth. In the future they should train their staff to communicate. Most certainly would not come back.

There were only two options near the Montjuic train stop that we saw. One was a little cafe shack and one had "RESTAURANT" printed on it. Upon passing by the entrance, we were greeted by the host/greeter who knew what to say to us. He explained that the restaurant was on a balcony and provided a sweeping view of Barcelona, and he assured us that the food was spectacular. That was my main concern because tourist traps can serve crappy food but still survive because they are in the right location. I also noticed that there were "Michelin rated" stickers, which got me excited about the quality of the food. With his assurance and seeing the lunch special - a 3-course option for 29 euros each - we sauntered on in. Immediately, we were impressed by the view. Immediately following that, we were surprised by rude service. My BF's mom asked if we could select which table we sat at, but the younger waiter (most are quite old men) rudely cut her off with repeated "no". We sat down and the same waiter rudely threw the tablecloth on the table and asked us to stretch it out. My BF's mom rightly pointed out how rude he was. After this, we were offered a recently opened table at the edge of the balcony for a better view. We were also served by another waiter who was nicer and humorous than our first disrespectful waiter. (Point in case: if you are being served rudely, it is your right to say so and receive good service. You are paying.) The three of us each ordered the three-course lunch special. I got the salad, mixed paella, and ice cream. My co-eaters ordered the other two main entree options. Salad: presented beautifully. Fresh mixed greens. Balsamic vinegarette applied light in flavor and light in amount. The farmer's cheese cubes were absolutely the star of the dish. So soft, creamy yet light at the same time, and with a very, very mild flavor. It was a cheese I had never had before and impressed me. I wish I knew what it was so I could buy it and eat it everyday. Paella: Presented first in a cast iron skillet, then plated, it comes with chicken pieces on the bone, squid, scallop, and prawns. The two prawns were cooked just right such that they were not chewy. The paella rice, which was likely arborio rice, was cooked enough so that it retained its firmness but not crunchy. The sauce and flavor was very good, just enough seafood flavor to be enjoyable and not overpowering. Lamb: likely the meat behind the shoulder blade, it was braised so that it was so tender and nearly melts in your mouth. Served with a brown sauce over a creamy potato puree, this dish was visibly enjoyed by my BF. Fish + vegetables: perhaps a cod seared and put over a bed of snap peas, baby corn, and carrots. Happily enjoyed by the BF's mom. I liked how the baby corn tasted fresh, rather than canned like I'm used to everywhere. Creme brulee cake roll: Wow, this definitely is beautiful and eye-catching. Was not what I expected when they said "creme brulee". It is a cake roll with chocolate filling and a creme brulee'd top. Fantastic concept. Delicious, but too much chocolate filling for me. Ice cream: vanilla bean specs were visible, so you know it's house-made with real vanilla. It was really too heavy and too rich, but still enjoyable. The view is breath-taking, and the food is high quality and delicious. For lunch, it's a great price. Ordering off the menu is a bit pricey, but expected from a Michelin-rated restaurant with a view. The only thing this place needs to work on is there service, other than that, highly highly recommended.

Magnificent view! Wonderful service! We had two perfect salads: Caesar with chicken and Sardine with sweet onion salads. Both were wonderfully prepared and presented. Together with a bottle or two of Alberino white wine and and fried artichokes, we spent 2 1/2 delightful hours reveling in near perfection. This is a first class operation with prices appropriately in line.

5 stars for the view, 5 for the mojitos, 3 stars for the staff (average) and 1 star for the food. The 25€ dish and the 2 14€ appetizers were mediocre af... but check out this veal burger... it had us wondering... did they forget the lettuce, tomatoes, onions and buns at the store? It was also not great veal meat and the burger itself lacked flavor.

We came here to celebrate my son's birthday on our trip to Barcelona. First of all the best part the view, is beautiful, this is a revolving restaurant so a A+ for atmosphere. The service was slow even for a fine dining it took awhile for someone to get to us, our waiter did not speak english, which was fine but there were miscommunication in what we ordered, the food was okay, I may have had high expectations which it did not deliver on taste. Overall the experience was great and I would definitely return if ever in Barcelona.

Nice looking restaurant and very poor meals. We thought they were specializing in paella but it was a big mistake to come to this place to try Spanish paella, We ordered 3 different kinds of paella and none of them were good. Very little of seafood, most of their meals fried... I went here by recommendation of one of the local bloggers and was very disappointed. Don't waste your time and money and go somewhere else. P.S. service was very descent, staff was speaking good English.

Dinner was good, not superb. But the view is onbelievable ! We did by day on sunny afternoon, but will be great to by night.

The restaurant has two greeters who stand out front and encourage passerby's to come and eat. They stand on the public sidewalk of the public road which is lightly travelled at night. They see all traffic that passes by. We asked the two greeters where the bus stop for bus 55 and they said that the bus was not running due to a holiday. They were very dramatic and emphatic about it, as if the bus had not come for the entire day. We get into the cab/van they called over and then of course see bus 55 approaching. It was about to loop back in a few minutes to the bus stop and time we would have easily made with good directions. The cab was not a metered cab, it was a van. We asked for a price to our destination before we left. Others who do not ask up front could easily be scammed. The two greeters are clearly drumming up business for their cab friends. I have little doubt that they lied to us to get us to take a cab on a slow night. It is their business to know what transportation options are available for their guests. I prefer helpful and honest staff.

Kitchen closes an HOUR before the listed hours. Wish it would have been mentioned before catching a cab from across town.

Extremely rude staff. Asked to be seated outside for the view as there was no one outside at the time and then the security staff came and kicked us out because we asked to be seated with a good view.

The view is spectacular! Unfortunately, the food is forgettable. I came with a large group and the menu was determined by the director of the group. Maybe it would have been better if I was able to choose my entree. But the view alone makes this place worth a try. I recommend touring the sites on Montjuic and then grabbing a drink here at the patio bar. The view really is breathtaking. It's everything I imagined it would be.

Location, location, location. Located on Montjuic with a fantastic view of Barcelona the place can't be beat. The restaurant itself was beautiful. With nicer weather sitting outside would have been great. That's the really good news The good news is that the food was very good. I'm finding-and found here-that the starters are often the highlight. We had the artichoke chips, tuna tartar, octopus, tempura cod and guacamole and all were fantastic. I had the lamb shoulder for my main; also very good. The bad news: the service was nowhere near what it should be for a restaurant of that class (and cost). Waiters seemed indifferent and inattentive. They didn't seem to know the menu. We rarely saw them. We had a great time there. Enjoyed the food, the company and the view. Bad service bugs me but doesn't infuriate me as it does others. Just beware.

The food is ok, definitely not worth the price you pay. The service is not great, staff seemed like we were an inconvenience. Our bill was over 200 Euro and the only thing worth it is the view. I would venture someplace else if time allows.

Came here with a large group (~100 people). Beautiful views and great wine, but the food was underwhelming. We started with a fixed menu with a sampling of appetizers. Cod fritters were the highlight of this course, but sadly we left some on the plate in anticipation of the main course - a serving of fish that was overcooked, under seasoned and chock full of bones. Dessert was good, but not memorable.

Great food. Great service. Good pricing. Amazing views. Only issue, the windows reflect everything and at night, when the sites are breathtaking, you can't see out of the windows. Investment in anti-reflective glass would be helpful. Still great, though.

This place was amazing. Food, service, view and wine. They even set up a cab for 5 people. Not sure what all the negative reviews were about.

This place has an amazing view, but not worth the food. The food is mediocre at best, they burned the paella (I thought this was their national dish????), we had better paella at a street cafe for seven euros. The fish was butchered and one of the dishes didn't even come. It was one bungle after another.

Average food for high price, good service, good view on Barcelona
