Fodor's Review:
With wicker chairs, stone walls, and classical music, this spot is sophisticated-rustic, and the excellent Catalan cuisine makes it more than a mere café. It's frequented by politicians and functionaries from the nearby Generalitat and is always boiling with life.

Don't go!
Posted by Gaz from UK on 12/22/08
I've been several times because the food is great value & not at all a tourist trap despite the location. However the last time, despite booking several days in advance and calling in an hour before to confirm, they had no table for us. Then they kept promising a table for 90 minutes. If it wasn't raining and every where packed we would have left. What was really annoying was when tables for 4 became availabe they refused to let us have one - just 2 of us - so they could cram in the maximum numbers. During all this they never apologised, never offered us a drink, they just didn't care.... don't bother....
