Dive into a vibrant seafood haven where communal dining meets a bustling atmosphere, and the daily fresh catch inspires a feast of tantalizing flavors.
"Top dishes here include the Spanish omelet with chorizo sausage (arguably the best tortilla in the city), the tuna tartare, the grilled monkfish, the whole grilled squid, the baby squid and chickpea casserole, as well as any specials of the day. For the full Cal Pep experience, you’ll want a seat at the bar, but, unfortunately, so does everyone else. Plan to wait in line for at least half an hour (and longer if you're a party larger than two). Cal Pep also accepts bookings in the more formal dining room, or the considerably less hectic, more romantic outdoor terrace." - Isabelle Kliger
"A tiny, popular spot situated on a corner of Plaça de les Olles, Cal Pep serves Mediterranean tapas and larger dishes best shared. The front bar is where the party is at (get there early if you want to grab a coveted stool), but you can also reserve a table (in advance) in the back room for a party of four or more."
"Regulars patiently queue by the doorway before opening time to snag a seat at the long counter and order those incomparable fried artichokes or baby squid, and fabulously rich butifarra (Catalan pork sausage) with tiny white beans, foie gras and port reduction." - Food & Wine Editors
