Two Barcelona restaurants were distinguished among the 50 best restaurants in the world by The World’s 50 Best Restaurants. “Disfrutar” and “Tickets” were the award-winning sites. One in Sant Antoni and the other in the Raval because they are considered of great gastronomic refinement.
Tickets ranked 32nd and Disfrutar 18th in the ranking. Although the distinction was awarded in 2018, both venues remain in place and offering delicious dishes to their diners.
If you wish to go to any of the restaurants, we suggest you make your reservation several months in advance.

Disfrutar: one of Barcelona’s award-winning restaurants
Gazpacho, crispy egg yolk, hare bonbon or liquid salad. Many dishes that can awaken your interest and your palate.
Disfrutar is a unique restaurant in Barcelona where you can live a truly exciting gastronomic experience.
A variety of experimental menus based on Mediterranean seafood. A menu of more than 30 innovative and avant-garde dishes.
The restaurant was opened in 2014. At that time three highly recognized chefs came together as a creative culinary team: Eduard Xatruch, Oriol Castro and Mateu Casañas.
The place: simply very well-lit, white, opening onto an outdoor terrace.
It has a creative design that integrates a ceramic-lined tunnel effect into its décor, as diners move from the narrow reception area to the restaurant’s large space.
