Gallo Nero — Restaurant in Barcelona

I will be thinking about these sandwiches for the rest of my life.

When we’re feeling a bit indecisive, my wife likes to ask the staff what their favorite item is on the menu. The waitress said the Mortadella pizza was her favorite, so we ordered that. I won’t lie, it was one of the best pizzas I’ve ever had. Better than any overpriced pie they serve in the states. But, I wanted the sandwich. The bread looked so amazing and crispy yet soft in person. I couldn’t help but watch others nod and smile as they took their first bites. The woman next to us was huffing like she was about to “c-you-em” after sharing a sandwich with her partner. Again, I will never regret not eating that pizza. It may just be the best thing in their menu.

Because of Barcelona’s various issues like its overwhelming stench or the local’s disdain for tourists, I may likely never return to this city. But at this point it has been a week since I visited this restaurant I’ve been still thinking about...

Edgy tapas bar!

The atmosphere had a distinct edge and punk vibe, perfectly complementing the music selection. Our waitress was exceptionally helpful, offering recommendations for delectable dishes. Our waiter, who also happened to be the chef, exuded charisma and shared a heartwarming childhood story related to roast beef.

The food was truly delightful; our order included caprese salad, burrata salad, roast beef focaccia, and porchetta focaccia. The burrata was delightfully mild and wonderfully creamy, while the focaccia boasted a delightful crispiness and a thinner profile. The roast beef was freshly prepared, thinly sliced, and the porchetta focaccia featured a delightful truffle paste that infused it with an enticing aroma and rich umami flavor.

Our overall experience was thoroughly enjoyable, and I highly recommend this establishment to sandwich enthusiasts and those seeking reasonably priced...

Really liked it! Totally recommend if you are around the old town.

Food 4,5/5 - very good ingredients and creative sandwiches. We ordered italian ham with truffle, which was amazing. You can taste the quality. After that, sandwich time! My husband ordered the roast beef one, very well balanced, moist and tasty. I ordered the mortadella one with the extra of burrata- also very good ingredients, but the burrata didn't add any value. It's an option very highlighted in the menu, that's why I'm taking 0.5pts

Service 5/5 small place with very kind barman and chef. You could see everything being prepared and they took all of our doubts.

Atmosphere 3/5 - well, I need to be honest, place is well decorated, but it's very small, with tall tables that are not the most comfortable. It's a place for a quick bite and glass of wine rather than a long lunch. Also, not ideal...
