Kabbalah Restaurant is a must-visit in Falset
Kabbalah Restaurant is a standout spot in Falset, run by a talented mother-and-son duo. Located just across from Plaça de l'1 d'Octubre, a 5 minute walk from the town center, it has an unassuming exterior but a warm, stylish interior. Five years ago, it transitioned from a bar into a full restaurant, with the mother bringing her expertise from top restaurants in the area. The son previously worked as a sommelier along the coast. Together, they’ve created a restaurant with a diverse menu, an extensive wine list with over 50 pages of selections, from Montsant and Priorat, but also across Spain and international options.
The name “Kabbalah” means “a little bit of everything,” which perfectly describes the variety on the menu. It was so good I visited multiple times while traveling in the area. It features a mix of local and international dishes, all made with fresh, high-quality locally-sourced ingredients. The menu is also clearly labeled for allergens, making it easy for those with dietary restrictions. Service is friendly, but professional and precise, with the son offering great recommendations in strong English. They’ve also invested in an advanced water filtration which they serve in their own reusable glass bottles to reduce bottled water waste, which is a nice sustainability touch.
The food quality is exceptional. The Tuna with cuttlefish noodles, oriental mushrooms, and niban dashi was a standout—deeply flavorful and beautifully presented. Another highlight was the John Dory fish with yuzu mayonnaise, which had a perfect balance of textures and acidity. Every dish was plated with precision, rivaling what you’d expect from a Michelin-starred restaurant. Prices are in line with other restaurants in Falset—maybe a little higher—but the quality more than justifies it.
If you’re in Falset, Kabbalah is a must-visit. Whether you’re a wine lover looking to explore rare local bottles or a foodie looking for a memorable meal, this place delivers. The menu changes slightly each week based on seasonal ingredients, so there’s always something new to try. They don't seem to have a website (a shame), but you can call to make a reservation.

Read moreUnreal experience! The service, food and ambiance were all so fantastic. Incredibly creative and delicious dishes and also some of the best wine we have had, ever! My husband and I have some dietary restrictions too and the staff were super accommodating. And the prices (especially for the food quality) were almost unbelievably good. Happy we made a reservation or we wouldn’t have got a table (albeit it was Saturday night, but still!), so recommend doing...
