Barcelona Restaurants

Silvestre Review

This graceful and easygoing young constellation in Barcelona's culinary galaxy serves modern cuisine to some of the city's most discerning and distinguished diners. Just below Via Augusta, a series of intimate dining rooms and cozy corners are carefully tended by chef Guillermo (Willy) Casañé and his charming wife Marta Cabot, a fluent English-speaking maître d' and partner. Look for fresh market produce lovingly prepared in dishes such as tuna tartare, noodles and shrimp, or wood pigeon with duck liver. Willy's semi-secret list of house wines is always surprising for its quality and value.

    a very nice spot in an upscale area.
    Make a reservation - the place is small and busy.
    The food was excellent but the portions were rather small so you really need to have a starter, a main course ,and one of the sublime deserts .
    The service was a but slow but maybe it was because they had just opened the place.
    The bill was not high for such a nice restaurant.
