Allium

Super Bomba de la Barcelota et très bonne paella (quoiqu’un peu salée) ! Endroit propre — sans plus, déco un peu moyenne.
Sinon rien a redire niveau qualité.
Recommande pour un repas à deux ou entre amis :-)

Sublime. Hacía tiempo que no encontraba un restaurante céntrico que tuviese una cocina de autor tan sabrosa. Pedimos de primero una ensalada de tomate con stracciatella y cecina que estaba delicioso. Yo me decanté también por un huevo estrellado con jamón ibérico y pedimos además pulpo a la plancha con «cachelos». El huevo estaba riquísimo y lo mismo puedo decir del pulpo (aunque este plato era un poco escaso). Los postres. madre mía! mi panacotta de vainilla se deshacía en la boca, y el babá con ron y vainilla (una especie de bizcocho emborrachado) de muerte.
Un detalle que me encantó: vino una familia de turistas que se sentó pero que antes de pedir se marchó del local porque el niño lloraba. No habían tocado nada, pero uno de ellos sí que habia cambiado la servilleta de sitio. Pues el camarero cambió el servicio entero. Que es normal? me diréis. Sí, sí. es lo que debería ser… pero que casi nunca se hace. Así que un 10 para unos camareros que además fueron súper atentos y amables. No es un sitio barato pero la calidad va acorde con su precio, así que repetiré seguro.
Larga vida a Allium!
[CAT] Sublim. Feia temps que no trobava un restaurant cèntric que tingués una cuina d’autor tan saborosa. Vam demanar de primer una amanida de tomàquet amb stracciatella i cecina que estava deliciosa. Jo em vaig decantar també per un ou estrellat amb pernil ibèric i vam demanar a més a més pop a la planxa amb «cachelos». L’ou estava riquíssim i el mateix puc dir del pop (encara que aquest plat era una mica escàs). Les postres. mare meva! el meu panacotta de vainilla es desfeia a la boca, i el Babà amb rom i vainilla (una mena de pa de pessic emborratxat) de mort.
Un detall que em va encantar: va venir una família de turistes que es va asseure però que abans de demanar va marxar del local perquè el nen plorava. No havien tocat res, però un d’ells sí que havia canviat el tovalló de lloc. Doncs el cambrer va canviar el servei sencer. Que és normal? em direu. Sí, sí. és el que hauria de ser … però que gairebé mai es fa. Així que un 10 per uns cambrers que a més van ser súper atents i amables. No és un lloc barat però la qualitat va d’acord amb el seu preu, així que repetiré segur.
Llarga vida a Allium!

Tapas excellents et bien présentés. Une salle très agréable, lumineuse et assez spacieuse. On a passé une bonne soirée!

Probably one of the worst places I’ve been to in the many times I’ve been to awesome Barcelona. Super packed with bored tourists. Dishes not so good. Service even worse. Don’t understand how they’re Km0 which is the reason I went in the first place. Rating system of Slow Food seems to really be lacking around here. Don’t waste your money on this place.

A year later this is still my favorite menu del dia in Barcelona and I’ve been bringing friends and eating here about weekly in that time. It’s great.

Thumbs up to the best food I’ve had in Barcelona!
This is my first review on Unilocal and I’ve used it religiously for years now. But I had to recommend this place because of how good the food is.
I’ve been traveling for three months in Europe now and I’ve not always been lucky with finding good food (even with useing Unilocal)
Allium is a «slow cooking» restaurant and is in one of the top food books of places to visit in Barcelona. Their menu choice is small but the product is excellent. They use local produce and products and everything is made to order. The flavor in each dish I’ve had here is great and I don’t get sick two hours after I leave.
Please give the place a visit, it’s worth your time, taste buds and money.
If you’re a tourist please take note that I’ve traveled Europe and this is one of the best places I’ve eaten at so far and I’ve eaten at a lot of places.

Quaint, delicious, unpretentious. What a delight to duck into after a long afternoon of exploring. The portion sizes were perfect — not overwhelming, yet satisfying. Each dish was prepared with care. Loved the freshly sliced cured meats and breads.

We don’t generally write reviews but after reading the recent review trashing Allium, I need to speak up. We went there for lunch and received a warm welcome and a delicious variety of tapas. Our waitress was extremely personable and patient. Two days later we went for breakfast which was just as good. When we raved about the local honey, the chef came over, explained why it was so different and delicious, and presented us with a small container to take home. We have no hesitation in recommending Allium for good food at at a reasonable price.

If I can give a zero star rating, I would. I don’t know who posted the other reviews but I need to re-​calibrate this Unilocal rating.
I Unilocaled this restaurant and decided to give it a go… I should’ve known better when there was only a couple of reviews.
Here’s my experience.
This place is down one of the main streets off of La Rambla. When I walked in there were only 2 customers sitting a the bar. No one else.
What I ordered:
1 Glass of the house red wine
1 order of Paella
Red wine was nothing special.
The Paella sucked. I’ll upload the picture later but about a quarter way through I asked the waiter if this was a typical paella. He said it was typical from the Valencia region of Spain. Regardless of where it’s from, the rice in paella should be cooked. It was very undercooked and only 5 pieces of seafood in the dish. A couple of small shrimp and a couple of mussels. 1 of the mussel was not even cooked.
I left still hungry and didn’t finish the dish. I left it about ¾ full. As I left the restaurant, the staff did not even acknowledge me. No Thank you, no goodbye.
If you’re a tourist, AVOID this place!

A prize for anyone! Quaint, warm,.unpretentious, with a wonderful Spanish nouvelle collection. I was overjoyed with musty how special this place was.

Aqui es menja molt be i el servei tambe es molt bo. Soc alergic al blat i sempre tenen opcions, o estan disposats a modificar les receptes.
