Restaurant La Tagliatella | Gran Via, Barcelona — Restaurant in Barcelona

In past years La Tagliatelle was - although a chain - a very good and original Italian restaurant. But now it has far less special sauces and the ones left are rather bland. I had sea food risotto today, €18,50 for rice with 3 small shrimp and the other 'fish' seemed like aubergine skin flavored with sardines oil. My friend had canneloni, with a nice nutmeggy sauce but she did not taste any minced meat. It had to be reheated to make it edible. As a positive point: the staff (of this branch) was very friendly and helpful. Maybe Tagliatelle managers try to budgetize or cater for American/UK tourists. I don't the rationale behind this downgrading. But I regret to say La Tagliatelle went off our regular choice...

Terrible. Hair in both pastas we ordered and somehow even in our sangria. After telling the staff there’s no way we’d pay for such low quality and unsanitary food and them agreeing. We waited an extra thirty minutes waiting to make sure they didnt expect us to pay. We were then chased out of the restaurant after leaving by an irate manager. I think that part was just a misunderstanding and that overall the staff is extremely well mannered. But I was still forced to pay 30$ for terrible food with no flavor...

Nice location and view. The carbonara is more like pasta with mushroom sauce heavy cream and bacon... Very scary, in my opinion not really worth the money and the pizzas were not pizzas, they were something else. The dough was so thin it breaks in your hands while you eat. It's also pretty expensive, 14 euros in comparison with 7 euros in authentic Neapolitan Pizzerias in Barcellona. And the quality of the ingredients here despite the prices is improvable to put it nicely. The servers...
