Nice atmosphere and nice food. Service was really good and i have to thank them, because they satisfied us when we complained because of the toughness of the meat. I would visit again to try more plates from their menu.

We visited twice during our Barcelona trip. Excellent food and service! The grilled sea bass was the highlight. Perfectly cooked with a crispy skin!

Casa Rafols is a superb place for proper sit-in dining. Food is great - beef tenderloin, risotto, salad, sweet potato fries are all tasty. Absolutely worth the visit. The owners of this restaurant operates a few other restaurants.

Best meal we had in Barcelona hands down. Squid, beef tartare, gambas, padros peppers were all so good we were left in awe. Liz was amazing too, thanks for the perfect experience!

Fabulous experience. Wonderful food. Tomatoe Bomb, Garlic Shrimp, Grilled Sweet Potatoe where outstanding. And underground speakeasy, Club 61, was beautiful with spectacular cocktails!

Get the oxtail stew. Comes out very fresh and hot with garlicky mashed potatoes and gravy. We didn't need a reservation about 8pm on a weekday, but it soon started filling up. Service was amazing, thank you Luna!

I had an absolutely outstanding experience at Casa Ràfols. The staff were not just attentive — they were in-tentative (yes, they seemed to anticipate every need before I even voiced it!), making the whole visit feel seamless and special. Every dish was exceptional — full of flavor, beautifully presented, and clearly crafted with care. What really surprised me was that all of this came at such a reasonable price. It’s rare to find a place that combines this level of service, quality, and value so perfectly. Casa Ràfols has truly set the bar high — I shall return again in the future.

Food, service and atmosphere were all absolutely gorgeous. Was our first time here and the lovely Dylan made us feel super at ease and gave us great recommendations! All food came out super quick and hot and was absolutely delicious. Thank you Dylan for a beautiful night ;)

We had a great dinner at Casa Rafols. Food was fantastic. (Cheese selection, Patatas Bravas, Bomba de Tomate, Cod Fish entree) our server LIZZ was really great. She gave us some recommendations from the menu and took really good care of us. I would go back when we visit Barcelona again.

Our first experience of Paella and it was absolutely amazing! The service was great, the staff were friendly and accommodating! Would definitely recommend if you are in the area!

We had such a great time at Casa Ràfols! The evening started with several bottles of cava, then moved on to red wine, at which point I completely forgot to take pictures of my meal. The service was excellent from start to finish: warm, attentive, and genuinely friendly without being overbearing. The atmosphere was lively but comfortable, making it the perfect setting for a night out. Amazing food, great wine, and an unforgettable night. Highly recommend!

I came here for my birthday meal and the food and drinks were fantastic, we had sangria and pino noir with our food which was delicious. The service was 10/10 Dylan and his colleagues were brilliant and so attentive. I would 100% recommend anyone to visit here when in Barcelona, it was the perfect exclusive experience and there were no negatives!!

Comimos en Casa Ráfols con mi familia y una amiga, y la experiencia fue muy buena. El local es grande, muy bien decorado y acogedor. El servicio fue rápido, quizá demasiado, ya que nos llegaron antes los contornos que los entrantes. Lo que más nos gustó fue el risotto de boletus, muy bueno, con sabor y bien hecho. Las albóndigas con salsa de sepia y la ensaladilla también estaban muy ricas, solo les faltaba un pelín de sal. En resumen, un buen lugar en el Born para comer bien y pasar un rato agradable en buena compañía. Recomendado. 🌿🍽️

Antiguamente era una Ferretería. Ahora es un restaurante con decoración estilo bodega, mesas de mármol blanco y ambiente agradable. Se pueden comer platillos o tapas y también platos y postres. Tienen carta de vinos variados. Las croquetas están muy buenas. Los camareros son amables. Muy bien situado. Tiene varias plantas. Abajo se esconde una zona de cócteles con una decoración muy elegante y clásica. Soy de Barcelona y me ha sorprendido conocer este lugar y su historia.

Fuimos en grupo sin reserva y nos dieron mesa nada más llegar. El sitio es muy agradable y bonito, y la comida estuvo muy buena. Comimos arroz meloso con setas, rabo de toro y boniato relleno, y a todos nos gustó un montón. Eran muy agradables pero el servicio fue MUY lento. La comida tardó en llegar pero también tardaban mucho en atendernos, en traernos los cafés y en traer la cuenta. Los vasos son enanos enanos enanos... Da igual lo que pidas, agua, cocacola... y no entiendo por qué. Con la Cocacola y el hielo era realmente incómodo beber porque apenas podías llenar el vaso porque son tan pequeños que casi lo ocupaba el hielo.

La sardina curada, patatas bravas y el falso risotto está muy bien el resto como las croquetas ibericas y las mejillones marinera bastante regular, la salsa de mejillones está salada. Por el servicio el de coleta es simpatico y profesional y el otro muy regular. Y añado sobre nuestra segunda visita: Ayer volvimos por la tarde a las 17:00h. Las croquetas hasta donde me acuerdo ha mejorado, los mejillones me siguen pareciendo como la última vez, las gambas al ajillo muy bien. Uno de los camareros, uno alto joven me retiro la copa de cerveza sin habermelo terminado y todavía quedando un ultimo tragito, en vez de retirar algun plato vacio y preguntar quetal va todo. Y al salir por la puerta el mismo camarero en vez de preguntar si nos ha gustado todo y despedirse, nos dicen “chicos habéis pagado?” Al cual le respondo sarcásticamente No, si corres mas que yo y me pillas te pago. Jesus 😅🤦🏻‍♂️, que desconfianza.

The seafood paella was okay. The portion size was reasonable and the dish had a decent amount of seafood. The flavors were fine, but nothing particularly memorable. It’s not bad, but not amazing either — just an average meal overall.

Julia Vasilieva

Good place. A bit high cuisine. We ordered steak thinking it will be a big soft piece of meat and it turned to be a small raw (very rare) collection if meat pieces. For some reason it was tasty though! Maybe with the help of spices and pepper - the combination was good. Not super satiable. The interior is amazing everywhere. The toilet waiting room looks like a gorgeous boudoir 😀

A gem we discovered on our trip to Barcelona. A lovely vibe and kind staff. We ordered a couple of dishes to share.

sardines to start and steak to follow - both dishes were pretty good !! Restaurant is lively and service was excellent. It was busy and felt like we were lucky to get a table as nearly all tables …

Fui a comer hace unos días al mediodía en familia. No se si les faltaba personal pero el servicio no fue el mejor, se notaba que los camareros estabas estresados por la cantidad de gente. Mi plato, pedí el bacalao, estaba muy rico. Mi marido pidió la carne y no puede decir lo mismo, no le preguntaron el punto de cocción y se lo trajeron demasiado crudo. Estuvimos todos de acuerdo que el vermut estaba riquísimo.

Habíamos ido a cenar algunas veces hace un tiempo, y siempre salimos satisfechos. Antes de que se hicieran famosos por cierto programa, era un restaurante muy a tener en cuenta, el equipo estaba muy atento y daban muy buen servicio, platos interesantes y sabrosos. No sé si es por la masificación descontrolada que está experimentando Barcelona en estos tiempos, o que se han relajado en lo que es la atención y la calidad, pero he notado una diferencia significativa de hace un tiempo a ahora. El precio no se corresponde del todo con lo recibido, tanto en el servicio como en lo que consumimos. Aunque he de decir que las directoras de sala estuvieron a la altura en todo momento, hubo una confusión a la hora de tomar nota de la reserva, pero lo solucionaron eficazmente. Gracias!

Un restaurante con buena ambientación, la comida no está mal, pero hay sitios mejores.

We visited Casa Rafols as a group of 10, hoping to enjoy some drinks and desserts together. Unfortunately, our waitress was quite rude and made us feel unwelcome, complaining that we hadn’t ordered enough food for a group our size. It was disappointing, as we were simply looking to relax and enjoy the atmosphere, but the attitude completely ruined the experience.

Hace muchos años que frecuento este lugar, es un buen sitio para tomar vermut y picar, es mejor pedir carta ya que los menús cerrados para grupos no son sorprendentes, casi todos los platos son fríos y han echo muchas pausas entre plato y plato, el servicio ha estado bastante lento, no pueden poner un solo camarero para todo el salón, crítica constructiva para el encargado de sala, calidad precio.. dejar mucho que desear desde que cambiaron de dueños. Las fotos hablan por sí solas, consejo, mejor coger menos mesas y dar un buen servicio.

Pedimos para empezar un picoteo, croquetas solo nos llevaron solo una y mira que éramos dos personas al menos lleva una más es lamentable y vergonzoso. Pedimos tambien pequillos rellenos, calamecitos salteados, canelon de pato, steak tartar, lo unico que estaba bien de ración era el canelon de pato, lo demas del picoteo era unas raciones muy pequeñas y la triste y vergonzosa croqueta. Lo de los primeros platos estaba bien las raciones y estaba muy bueno y los postres tambien estan correctos. Lo del servicio tambien ha sido vergonzoso y lamentable muy lento y nos toco una camarera que no tenia idea de servir y ha sido el primer restaurante que cuando pedimos el picoteo y los primeros platos no se apunto nada lo hizo todo de memoria y por supuesto es lo que tenia que ocurrir que se pensaba que queriamos solo el picoteo y mira que le dijimos los primeros platos, con el servicio tan malo tenian que replantearse unos cambios, tambien no estan altura los precios tan altos. Ya sabemos que es un restaurante de turistas, pero no lo recomiendo.

Una auténtica estafa. La ración de mollejas a 25€ es de chiste, las raciones son minúsculas. De aquí hemos ido directos a 100 montaditos. La calidad será buena pero si no da ni para un aperitivo es una vergüenza. El servicio amable y rápido y el sitio es bonito.
