Fonda España
Set within El Raval’s Hotel España, this dining room is a jewel of Modernista craftsmanship, designed by Lluis Domènech i Montaner at the beginning of the 20th century and beautifully restored. The tables are dappled under a coffered skylight and flanked by sumptuous floral tiles and carved wood. A second room features a stunning alabaster fireplace. The menu is overseen by the great Basque chef Martín Berasategui (see Lasarte). Here he focuses on traditional and seasonal fare—boletus mushrooms, oxtail cannelloni, baked hake—prepared with an artistry to match the setting. A lunchtime tasting menu offers exceptional value. Reservations are recommended.
