What's 100 USD in EURO?
We (2 persons) had a dinner last December there, 2 starters ( kind of nice shrimp salad), 2 mains, 1 dessert we shared, 2 coffees and paid about € ( EURO ) 120. We were seated at the table of Catherine Deneuve ( a small golden plate on the back ). Woddy Allen's was next to it I believe.

The following is from Maribel's Guide to Dining in Barcelona:
The restaurant fills up with large family groups on Sundays. Great pa am tomaquet, a Catalan bruschetta, spinach with raisins, espinacas a la crema con pasas. There is piano music after 10:00, a menu in four languages, and a good selection of sorbets and gelatos for dessert. Expect large portions. It, and Cal Pep, were recently featured in a Vino y Gastronomía magazine article, “Where to eat well for €30. This classic restaurant is very popular with tourists but the prices keep the hordes away, and the tourists we see dining here are well dressed and well behaved!
And from the Edward Schneider blog "Dining In Barcelona: Set Portes And Fonda Gaig"

One of my absolute favourites in Barcelona. A top quality classic. Consistently great, traditional Catalan food in the best atmosphere. Popular with tourists, but it's easy to understand why this 1836 establishment still is a favourite with locals. A couple of weeks ago we had a fabulous fish soup, monkfish/rape a la plancha and a divine Catalan speciality Arroz caldoso. We also had a great night at more gourmet hype Tickets the next day, but Sete Portes again came out on top.
The four of us payed some 150€/195 US$ with wine, brandy and desserts.
