El Colmadito — Restaurant in Barcelona

We had SUCH a good meal here — highly recommend! I’m a bit obsessed with food so I choose my restaurants very carefully, and I made reservations at this one after reading tons of reviews and figuring out exactly which dishes on the menu I wanted to try. We ate on the small patio outside, and the waiter was lovely. My son has many allergies, but they were extremely accommodating and he was able to eat most of the dishes thanks to some modifications they made. We had the croquetas (excellent and the best we have had in Barcelona), patatas bravas (excellent with a little kick of spiciness), grilled prawns (solid but not standout), razor clams (simply prepared by very good), cheese plate (solid), and grilled octopus (very good) — but the real standout even among all of these delicious dishes was the grilled Iberian pork with truffled potato purée (the menu item called “Presa 100% ibérica de bellota a la brasa con Puré de patata trufado”). It was just phenomenal. I’d come back here again in a heartbeat, and it was well worth the 30-minute trip it took us...

Fantastic place! My wife and I stumbled upon this place randomly. The tapas were fantastic and the burger was the best one I have had in Barcelona and one of the best I have had in my life. Each ingredient was fresh and the portions were the right size. The waiter spoke great English and told us a bit about the tapas (their origin and history) we ordered.

If you are in the area, don't think twice! Come to El Colmadito for a lunch or a dinner. You won't be...

El Colmadito de Sarrià es un restaurante singular y excepcional que ha sabido diferenciarse muy bien del resto con la elaboración de una carta única de productos frescos y de calidad a un precio más que correcto. El local cumple a rajatabla con todas las medidas COVID imprescindibles en estos tiempos de pandemia: limpieza y desinfección del local, distancias, salubridad, higiene... He tenido el placer de comer y cenar en este agradable local en varias ocasiones y es totalmente recomendable tanto para ir en pareja, con amigos o pequeñas reuniones de trabajo. En cuanto a la comida sorprende su variedad regional con platos típicos de la cocina catalana: exquisitas bravas, escalivada... aunque resaltaría productos andaluces como el salmorejo cordobés (con ajo asado y almendra, todo un guiño a la fusión catalano-andaluza), chicharrones especiales de Cádiz, gamba roja de Huelva (ver foto), quesos "payoyo" galardonado de la sierra de Cádiz, etc. Para completar su variedad, productos extremeños ibéricos de excelente calidad como son el jamón serrano Maldonado, sobrasada... anchoas y sardinas cántabras de Santoña... En definitiva, una amplia variedad de platos, vinos y postres riquísimos en un local acogedor y un personal que te hará sentir...
