Disfrutar in Barcelona delivers an exhilarating tasting menu experience focused on imaginative Mediterranean seafood, all served in a stylish, laid-back atmosphere.
"Despite being one of the best restaurants in the world, you’d struggle to find a fine-dining spot more laid-back and actually pleasant than Disfrutar. The three owners were each previously head chefs at elBulli (the place where they started putting foam on plates), and they’ve brought all that expertise here, without any snobbishness. What you see on your plate during one of the tasting menu experiences is rarely what you taste in your mouth, whether that’s a panchino (or bao bun) filled with beluga caviar or a “gazpacho sandwich” that’s actually just sliced bread filled with tomato-flavored meringue and a refreshing gazpacho sorbet." - isabelle kliger
"Disfrutar took the top honor in the World’s 50 Best Restaurants list. Owned by Oriol Castro, Eduard Xatruch, and Mateu Casañas, the restaurant has been a mainstay on the list since opening in 2014, known for its hours-long tasting menu and avant-garde cooking." - ByPervaiz Shallwani
"Disfrutar in Barcelona, Spain, has been named The World’s Best Restaurant for 2024. It is renowned for its curiously creative menu and beautiful dining room. Chefs Oriol Castro, Eduard Xatruch, and Mateu Casañas, who previously worked at El Bulli, opened Disfrutar in the Eixample district of Barcelona. The restaurant has been a consistent presence on the awards list since 2018."
