7 Portes ReviewFestive and elegant, 7 Portes has been around since 1836, making it one of the oldest and most prestigious restaurants in Barcelona. While these days it's more touristy than aristocratic, there is still enough authentic charm left in the decor (and patrons) to make it worth the visit. The white-aproned staff serve regional dishes, including fresh herring with onions and potatoes, daily paellas (with shellfish or rabbit), and a wide array of fresh fish, expertly fileted at the table. Order succulent oysters or an herb-laden stew of black beans with pork or white beans with sausage, which come in enormous portions. The restaurant's name means "Seven Doors," and it does indeed have seven doors, underneath charming porticoes typical of this portside pocket of Barcelona. Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.

| 3 stars | Frommer's Exceptional |
Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
