Fodor's Review:

Santi Santamaria's master class in Mediterranean cuisine merits the 45-minute train ride (or 30-minute drive) north of Barcelona to Sant Celoni. One of the top three restaurants in Spain, this is a must for anyone interested in fine dining. Every detail, from the six flavors of freshly baked bread to the cheese selection, is superb. The taster's menu is the wisest solution. The RENFE stations are at Passeig de Gràcia or Sants—the last train back is at 10:24 PM, so this is a lunchtime-only transport solution. However, El Racó has five sleek rooms, so you can book a bed just a few steps from the dinner table.

  • Credit Cards: AE, DC, MC, V
  • Closed: Closed Mon., 1st 2 wks of Feb., and late June-early July. No dinner Sun.
