GYOJASANG Korean BBQ & Bar — Restaurant in Barcelona

A while ago, a friend told me: I wanna eat Japanese food, but not sushi or ramen. In Japan, of course, you can go to any place and find different types of food. In Europe it's more complicated... In BCN,, there's a Japanese restaurant in every street, but they all serve the same things: sushi and ramen. 😅 But recently, a few yakiniku (Japanese BBQ) places have opened and I wanted to try it (I had never had yakiniku 😓) so I seized the opportunity and booked a table at Ah-un. 🥳 The place is really beautiful. 🤩 We got to sit in a kind of small booth that gave us privacy without isolating us. The atmosphere was really great, with some industrial vibes, fake fall plants and Japanese art on the wall. Now the light was not good for pics, unfortunately... 😓 We had a set menu, the most expensive one, for €54 per person (not including drinks). They brought us a couple of nice aburi sushi, a lovely garlic butter rice dish in a hot stone bowl, a salad, a soup and, of course, some meat. Everything was delicious. 👍 Dessert was included too. It was a beautifully presented mix of typical Japanese desserts. But that probably was the less good part of the menu as, in terms of taste, everything was pretty random. Quantity was sufficient, Now, was it worth that much money (in BCN, €50 for food is a lot of money)? 🤔 Meh... I mean, most of the meat was pork or chicken, which are cheap meats. And the beef cuts were not the most luxurious ones either. 🫤 I definitely enjoyed it, for the food and for the company. 👍 I'm not sure I'll be back though, because of the prices.

I recently visited Gyojasang Korean BBQ, and the experience was delightful. The restaurant has a warm, cozy atmosphere that really gives off an “autumn in Seoul” vibe, making it a perfect place to enjoy a comforting meal. We ordered a meat meal set that included chicken, pork, and wagyu. While the portions weren’t huge, the quality and flavor were excellent, and every bite felt carefully prepared. To accompany the set, we tried two side dishes: the egg and cheese roll, which was fluffy and rich, and the fried dumplings, crispy and satisfying. We paired everything with soju, and to our surprise, the waiter kindly treated us to a banana liqueur shot, which added a fun and unique touch to the evening. Although the menu looked a bit expensive at first glance, the overall value felt fair. For three people, the meal was filling without being overwhelming. Service was attentive, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. We spent about 20€ each and we ate first quality meat so seems...
