Don Asador — Restaurant in Barcelona

From the moment we stepped into Don Asador, we knew we were in for something extraordinary. The warm ambiance, the intoxicating aroma of grilled perfection, and the impeccable attention to detail set the stage for what would become one of the most memorable dining experiences we've had in Barcelona.

And then, there was the service—a level of hospitality so genuine and attentive, it elevated the entire evening to something truly special. Ibeth, our incredible server, was an absolute star—graceful, knowledgeable, and with a warmth that made us feel like the most important guests in the room. Her attention to detail and enthusiasm for the menu made every dish even more enticing.

The server with green eyes and black-and-white patterned pants was another standout—effortlessly balancing efficiency with charm, friendliness, and warmth. And let’s not forget the young man whose energy and professionalism added another layer of excellence to the experience. Together, they created a seamless, elegant service that was nothing short of remarkable.

Now, onto the food: The ribeye steak was absolute perfection—charred to smoky, flavorful bliss on the outside, yet impossibly tender and juicy on the inside. Every bite melted in my mouth, rich with bold, beefy depth. Paired with the creamed potatoes, which were luxuriously smooth and buttery, it was a match made in culinary heaven. Each forkful was indulgence at its finest.

From start to finish, Don Asador delivered an experience that was both intimate and unforgettable. The impeccable service, the mouthwatering flavors, and the welcoming atmosphere make this an absolute must-visit in Barcelona. We left feeling not just satisfied, but genuinely cared for—already counting down the days until we can return.

Bravo to the entire team; you’ve set the bar...

Found this restaurant as a top rated restaurant with crazy amount of reviews during my Barcelona trip. So I decided to make a visit. Straight of the bet even though I had a reservation I was shown 2 seating options even though most of the tables were empty: one at the door and one at the door of the kitchen. This as a solo guest really disappoints me as it shows as I am 1 person I am not worthy for an actual table. Then the staff, almost none of them spoke English and looked a bit annoyed at all times which is surprising for a touristic city like this and multiple times I had to remind them of my drinks orders as when i ordered these were never coming. When I was seated the first thing before I even ordered was that I was told by the waiter that I could not pay by card and if I did not have cash money there is an ATM on the corner. So I had to get up walk to the corner and make a cash withdrawal and come back to sit down to have my meal which is not the best customer journey if you ask me. Then the food: overall the food was not seasoned, the temperature was not correct (medium comes as rare) and the cuts of meat was not trimmed properly so it became rubber like chewy. On top of this the meat after the cooking was not rested enough which caused the unsavory juices to flow. I was also not offered a complimentary shot or dessert from the house which I saw the staff offering to all of the tables of 2+ people. Overall I think this place is fairly exaggareted by past reviews and is not worthy of its rating and I almost felt like as a solo traveller I was not very welcome from the get go and their attitude verified this. Very unfortunate decision for me of choosing this place on my last night to dine and I will be refraining from visiting again....

Yo, if you’re on the hunt for a dining experience that’ll stick with you, check out this dope Argentinian steakhouse in Barcelona. My visit was off the charts, and honestly, I wish I could’ve stayed forever… though my stuffed belly says otherwise!

From the moment I walked in, the vibe hit me hard. The atmosphere was buzzing, filled with laughter and the mouthwatering smell of those perfectly grilled steaks. It felt alive, like a big family gathering where everyone’s sharing good times, and each bite told a story of rich flavors and real love for the food.

Gotta give a shout-out to the amazing crew…Melanie, Sami, and Monica 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 who made the whole experience feel warm and genuine. These folks knew the menu inside out and brought some serious enthusiasm that added to the vibe. They weren’t just serving food; they were sharing a piece of their culture and passion for Argentinian eats, making the night even more special.

As I dug into that juicy steak, I was torn between joy and a little sadness. Happy ’cause I was feasting on some of the best grub ever, but sad ’cause I knew I’d eventually have to bounce. Those flavors lingered long after the last bite, and I found myself wishing I could chill and eat just a bit longer.

This spot is a true gem in Barcelona, and I can’t recommend it enough. Whether you’re a steak fanatic or just want a place with good vibes and friendly staff, this is where you wanna be. Just be ready to roll out with a full belly and a heart full...
