Deliri Barcelona — Restaurant in Barcelona

As a seasoned reviewer, I pride myself on delivering unbiased and insightful critiques of culinary establishments. However, in the case of this Michelin-starred restaurant, my experience was so utterly perplexing that it calls for a touch of sardonic commentary.

The tale begins with an early reservation secured through Tripadvisor's The Fork service, promising a delectable 50% discount. As the anticipated date arrived, I eagerly checked my reservation confirmation, only to be greeted by the shocking news that the establishment had, without prior notice or explanation, summarily revoked my booking.

Dismayed and confused, I contacted The Fork, only to be met with the baffling assertion that my reservation had been canceled at my request. This perplexing turn of events, coupled with the restaurant's inexplicable silence, left me utterly bewildered.

Undeterred, I dispatched a flurry of emails to the restaurant, hoping to unravel the mystery behind this baffling decision. I also reached out via Instagram and the establishment's website, but my pleas for clarification fell on deaf ears.

Despite my persistence, the restaurant remained steadfast in its silence, leaving me with a reservation gone awry and a 50% discount forever out of reach. To add insult to injury, I was offered the opportunity to reschedule my reservation, but at full price, rendering the entire affair pointless.

This Michelin-listed establishment's treatment of a prospective customer raises serious questions about their customer service ethos. Canceling a reservation without prior notification, particularly one secured well in advance and promising a substantial discount, is akin to culinary malpractice.

I urge the Michelin Guide to investigate this matter, ensuring that the standards set for their accolades are upheld. The restaurant's actions not only reflect poorly on their culinary prowess but also cast a shadow over the Michelin Guide's reputation for discerning taste.

While I have no personal experience with the restaurant's cuisine, my encounter with their customer service has left me with a profound sense of disillusionment. Perhaps this is a solitary incident, an aberration in an otherwise stellar dining experience. However, the lack of transparency and accountability displayed by the establishment leaves me questioning whether this is merely a one-off.

For those seeking a truly memorable and satisfying culinary experience, I would urge them to steer clear of this establishment until they demonstrate a commitment to treating their customers with the respect...

I recently visited Deliri, a restaurant in Barcelona, with a group of five people on a Saturday evening. While I had heard good things about this place, our overall experience was quite disappointing.

The food itself was decent, but considering the price we paid, we expected more in terms of taste. The presentation was good. The portion sizes were quite small, and the plates were priced relatively high. Additionally, the staff didn't clear our plates or cutlery between dishes.

As for the atmosphere, Deliri is a small, intimate space with a limited number of tables. However, the air conditioning was too cold, and despite telling the staff two or three times, it was not adjusted, making the experience uncomfortable. Moreover, the open door contributed to the chilly atmosphere. The dishes were brought out relatively quickly, without any breaks, which didn't allow for a leisurely dining experience.

The service in general was friendly, but not particularly engaging or attentive to our needs. The staff's language skills were inadequate, as they had difficulty understanding English. This created confusion and miscommunication. Moreover, the staff seemed to lack proper training. For instance, they cleared our dishes while some of us were still eating, and our waiter smashed a wine glass on the table. Accidents happen, but I have never witnessed this before in a restaurant setting.

The wine menu was limited, and they didn't have two reasonably priced red wines from the list, leaving us with only one or two affordable options. Other wines were priced at €100 and above, which was disappointing for those of us who wanted a more moderately priced wine.

Lastly, our waiter didn't follow standard wine-serving protocol, such as allowing us to taste the wine before pouring it for the whole table. These oversights, along with the other issues mentioned, made for a subpar dining experience.

Unfortunately, the value for money at Deliri is too low. Based on our experience, I cannot recommend this restaurant for a special night out or a group dinner. There are many other options in Barcelona that will offer a better dining experience for the same or a...

Deliri is a cosy neighborhood restaurant with about 10 tables. Food is based on very seasonal to notch products and really high cooking standards that you find in the best restaurants. I know David (owner and executive chef) and his experience previously so I knew I’ll eat well. He loves what ho does and do it really well. Great attention from waiters and sommelier all professional and not too much but very attentive.

We sat right next to the kitchen so you can see the kitchen in action. Food is amazing and I talked to David that I love game meat he said don’t worry I’ll treat you and make a special menu for meand my friend.

We started with oysters with three different sauces and they where amazing. They are French oysters I think NO 1 and really fresh.

Boquerones- amazing

We than had a roasted chicken croquettes with beautiful spicy sauce mixed with egg yolk. One of the best croquettes.

After that we had the game meat feast. I just want to mention obviously the meat and everything was amazing just how it supposed to be but what’s extra is really amazing sauce. If you’re chef and know your reduction than you will enjoy eating here as David takes his time to prepare sauce here from taste and colour and texture is just like you’re eating in michelin star place.

Roasted French pigeon with spinach , cured vegetables, pine nuts and reduction. Breast roasted, leg brazed.

Brazed Wild boar with sweet potatoes and filled in cabbage a gain perfect cooking and amazing reduction with a little chocolate going through. Perfect dish.

Liebre ala royal/ with Hare a la royal. Amazing dish this I know from experience takes a time to make an a lot of technique and knowledge. Perfect sauce finished just before serving with little blood which makes this dish what is it.
