Gatblau — Restaurant in Barcelona

Had high hopes based on google reviews but we were a bit let down. The staff was super friendly and pleasant, so no issues there. There were a few dishes that were pretty tasty, but was disappointed with the mains and overall, for the price we paid especially. I shared the fish stew and steak, and both were a miss for me. The fish looked great. Nice presentation. Thick flaky tender piece of white meat, but the flavor was off. It and the broth were pretty fishy and off putting.
