La Dama

Frommer's Review

This is one of the few restaurants in Barcelona that deserves, and gets, a Michelin star. In a very elegant 1918 building designed by Manuel Sayrach, this stylish and well-managed restaurant serves a clientele of local residents and civic dignitaries. You take an Art Nouveau elevator (or the sinuous stairs) up one flight to reach the dining room. Here chef Josep Bullich's specialties include salmon steak served with vinegar derived from cava (sparkling wine) and onions, cream of potato soup flavored with caviar, a salad of langostinos (crayfish) with orange-flavored vinegar, an abundant platter of autumn mushrooms, and succulent preparations that include first-rate cordero (lamb), ternera (veal), and fresh mariscos (shellfish).
