Farga | Diagonal — Restaurant in Barcelona

Just avoid this place! Absolutely overpriced, very poor service and food.

First of all, after having ordered the meal it took them ages just to bring us some drinks. Then they brought the two hamburgers which were just so ordinary…One came with some cheddar cheese and the other (mine) with some caramelized onions. When I asked why my hamburger didn’t have the cheese, the waiter told me that it was to distinguish the different cooking!! In fact I had asked it medium and my friend well done, but nobody had asked us anything about the toppings…!

Apart from that, their aspect was not really inviting: the bread was badly grilled (apart from some burnt lines, it was completely cold and white), the meat was cold inside and was topped by a thin layer of cold caramelized onions and literally half a leave of lettuce! On the side, we were given some chips again really few and not at all inviting.

It’s a shame I didn’t take a picture…! It was so disappointing…and they charge that dish 16 euros!!! Unbelievable!

The only thing which was not so bad were the desserts.

But when I saw the bill…I was completely shocked: 62 euros!!

They charged almost 4 euros for a cup of tea and 4,30 for a small water! Not to mention 2,50 euro of...

Stopped in just for coffee but everyone around us had such wonderful food, we decided to have lunch. Two of us had the hamburguesa platter. The hamburger was cooked perfectly and the meat was far superior to others we have had. The fries were crispy and plentiful. My friend had the spaghetti carbonara and she ate con mucho gusto!! The highlight was dessert -- two discs of filo dough stuffed with delicious whipped cream topped with raspberries -- yummy! Everything was just delicious and the servers were friendly, efficient and very speedy! The facility itself is very open and airy with views in the front portion onto Diagonal. Conversation was easy as it wasn't too loud. The baños are up a very steep set of stairs which could be a problem for seniors or those with disabilities but once reached were very clean, and well stocked. All in all, a very good lunch, in a pleasant environment...

Our daughter was very exited about this place, so we went on or Sunday to have some deserts and drink a coffee, just to give her the experience she expected. We asked the waiter what table we can have to sit down, and had a question: any you want. We set at the nice one we wanted, but had been told that we are not allowed!!!??? We changed the table and the same situation went once again, actually they have different zones for different types of clients but they don’t separate this zones somehow. Finally, just to complete the journey I have ordered some sweets to take away and I had to go with the other card I have been given to the other cashier to pay.... daaamn, am I at the bank or hospital? I just wanted to buy some sweets.... don’t recommend at all to be very...
