Fodor's Expert Review Casa Calvet
Editor's Note: This location is no longer in operation.
It's hard to pass up the opportunity to break bread in a Gaudí-designed building. Completed in 1900, the Art Nouveau Casa Calvet includes a graceful dining room decorated with looping parabolic door handles, polychrome stained glass, etched glass, and wood carved in floral and organic motifs. Popular with local businesspeople who want to entertain guests in style, the restaurant exudes velvet-and-mahogany charm and also attracts couples seeking an intimate meal for two. Chef Miguel Ajita's Catalan and Mediterranean fare is light and contemporary, seasonal and market-inspired.
