Farró restaurant — Restaurant in Barcelona

My mother always tells me I have an issue with salt... And she's right, I eat too much salt. So far it hasn't been an issue because I run a lot, ergo I sweat a lot, ergo I lose a lot of salt... but still, I should eat less salt. But I'm so used to it... I was raised like this, not by my mother but by my grandmother who would add salt to everything before even trying. 🤷 That said, I'm still able to feel when something lacks salt or has too much salt. And I feel like, lately, when you go to a restaurant, food is either too salty or not enough (and this opinion is confirmed by other guests, so it's not just me 😉). Months ago, we went to Farró, which is a small dish (or big tapas, as you wish) restaurant located literally meters from our place. The service was great, the atmosphere was good, we were with good friends, our son was a bit moody (kids will be kids) but he was with us too (and that's always great 💙), the food wasn't expensive (around €20 per person, no drinks) and the presentation of the food was spectacular but... the cooks apparently lost the salt shaker 🧂. 😓 Absolutely everything that was cooked (not the pickled fish, of course) lacked salt. 😢 That's a pity cause I could feel the ingredients were good, even the recipes seemed great but, yeah, everything was dull and became way better as soon as we added salt... but adding salt afterwards isn't the same. 😞 I'll give it another try cause I'm convinced (well, I hope) that was just a hiccup. 🙏

Always passed by and the menu looks really good. Unfortunately the food….. we ordered the bomba de la Barceloneta and it arrived cold. We had the ensalada rusa, the tomato tartar with pickled anchovies, and it was bland and tasteless as it all lacked salt. As my main, I ordered the entrecôte medium rare with a sow of fries and pimientos de padrón. They brought everything out, except for my entrcote. Everyone at the table had finished the starters and mains, and still, no entrecôte. When it finally did arrive, it was overcooked, dry and rubbery and COLD. Sent it back. Such a shame as the restaurant is nice inside and we live next door, but they are in desperate need of staff and a...

Restaurante ideal para comer o cenar. Para comer hacen menu del día relación calidad-precio muy correcto. Para cenar, el plan ideal es ir en grupo. Yo fui con unos cuantos amigos, menu cerrado (opciones de 25 o 30 euros) bebidas a parte y la cena fue espectacular.

En definitiva, lo que es la comida estaba riquísima (todos los platos muy buenos) y además el trato muy cercano y muy amable. Camareros muy simpaticos y Oscar el encargado super majo y afable. Él fue el que me aconsejo el menú. Repetiría sin ninguna duda. Com ganas de hacer el menú 25 con un grupo de amigos. Tiene terraza para grupos con estufas y cubierta para estar super a gusto y sin nada de frio. Hicimos la cena en la terraza y practicamente estuvieron centrados en nosotros ya que eramos 15 personas.

El menú de 30 euros que hice para celebrar mi cumpleaños constaba de: Patatas bravas con chistorra, sobrasada y allioli: muy recomendables, las patatas en su punto, jugosas y la salsa increible. Pan de coca con tomate: crujiente y muy rico Atun con salsa teriyaki y mayonesa de wasabi: plato estrella Huevos rotos con jamon y pimientos del padron: el uevo deshecho para impreganarse bien con las patatas Calamarcitos a la plancha con alubias de san pau: muy buena combinacion, calamar fresco y alubias buenisimas Albondigas con sepia y guisantes: receta tradicional, me recordaron a las que hace mi madre Entecotte: en su punto, jugoso y tierno Postres: surtido de tocinito de cielo,catanias, mousse de chocolate con aceite y sal y cheesecake: a cada cual mejor, muy buena eleccion para acabar con la experiencia de la cena Para beber nos ofrecieron un par de botellas magnum de tinto que valio mucho la pena.

Recomendable 100%, bien ubicado y me sorprendió gratamente para bien ya que no lo había probado, lo tenía al lado de casa y eso que ya me lo habían recomendado, así que...
