Espectacular menú degustación (Menú de producto) Buenísimo el arroz con una impresionante presentación, el pescado fresco, la cigala, la gamba roja...Se nota la calidad de la materia prima y las salsas no enmascaran el producto sino que lo realzan. Tuvieron varios detalles por ser el cumpleaños de mi pareja. El servicio excelente, Josep y Toni nos atendieron perfecto. Felicitaciones a los chefs (José Guadalupe y Mauricio) y al sommelier Andrés. ¡¡Volveremos!!

Desde que entré y fui guiada a mi mesa, hasta el saludo final, ha sido una experiencia: dedicada, de calidad, creativa, con ingredientes genuinos, presentación impecable y particular junto a la valiosa asistencia de Didai y Andrés que con savoir faire y puntualidad, me brindado una atención continua y asertiva. Aprecié y disfruté en particular modo en cada platillo escogido (todos a base se pescados y mariscos): la frescura, autenticidad y calidad de sus propuestas fue indiscutible! Amé la sencillez de cada materia prima (de les Terres de l´Ebre) y la maestría y creatividad expresadas por el chef, invitando a mis sentidos a una excursión divertida de gustos y texturas, sublime!

El local es elegante y sobrio, con la cocina a vista y una agradable sonoridad musical de fondo.

Mis intolerancias fueron tranquilamente respetadas (gluten y lactosa) inclusive en la propuesta final del postre, fabuloso!
El todo acompañado de un coctel delicioso, herbal y fresco, que gracias a la maestría de Michael, bien consideró en su propuesta, mi petición de utilizar poquísimo azúcar, fue estupendo! Algunos detalles me transportaron al tradicional pan con aceite de oliva extra virgen de Sicilia, con diversos tipos de sal… que decir, me sentí en casa.

Comida al mediodía de un grupo de compañeros. Somos gente mayor que no comemos habitualmente en restaurantes de 🌟 Michelín . Solicitamos el menú que incluye aperitivo, 2 platos a escoger entre 4 platos, postre y2 bebidas, todo ello a 55 € por comensal. Presentación de platos espectacular, calidad máxima, servicio impecable, detalles como el pan, aceite, toallitas, del nivel exigido.

Lo mejor por lejos de Xerta es el personal de sala. Son todos súper amables y divertidos. Toni fue nuestro anfitrión e hizo que la experiencia sea increíble. Mi pareja cumplía años y nos atendieron con muchísimo amor. Volveremos sin dudarlo. La comida es increíble. Gracias, equipo, ha sido una experiencia increíble! 💛

Una experiencia con mayusculas, sensacional!!! Fuimos entre semana aprovechando el menú ejecutivo a un precio más asequible y ha superado mis mejores expectativas. Avisé que era el cumpleaños de mi pareja y han tenido el detalle de sacarle un postre con velas 😄 Repetiremos!

El restaurante Xerta es mucho más que comida, aunque esta estaba deliciosa. Son experiencias sensoriales, tradiciones populares transmitidas a través de sus creaciones y una cultura gastronómica que trasciende a lo que comes. El menú degustación que hicimos fue brutal. Equilibrado y muy armónico. Con novedades en sabores de alimentos como la Llisa y texturas fascinantes. Ya desde el aperitivo, presentado en una mejillonera, te obsequian 4 entrantes basados en fiestas populares que marcan el calendario del delta: la almadraba del atún, el arroz tan propio de la zona, la clotxa (pan relleno de arenque y tomate). El arroz, presentado en una Barraca (típica casa payesa del Delta) fue el plato estrella para mi gusto. Esa espadeña de mar era deliciosa. Lo que me despertó más admiración fue el postre. Esa interpretación de Mel i Mató fue exquisita. Con sus texturas de miel y la cremosidad de la espuma de queso.

I was surprised with this place by my girlfriend and was very satisfied. Above all, the staff must be particularly well evaluated here. Nice, courteous personalities with good expertise and charm. The house wine is fantastic, I like the balance of freshness and creaminess, very typical for good Garnacha Blanca from the Terra Alta. The interpretation of the dishes is fabulous and resembles the narrative of southern Catalan cuisine. Convince yourself with the pictures, because there is nothing wrong with the food and the menu. Thank you for the beautiful time in your establishment, gladly again!

It’s a wonderful dining experience with nice atmosphere, service and amazing food. The appetizers are great, the squid ravioli is like fresh and unique. The flavor of the pork roll is so good and the mixture of the different food items are well considered. Amazing!

We had such a special and wonderful time here at Xerta for our anniversary! We had the chefs selection with the wine pairing. Each and every dish was better than the last!!!! The wine paired perfectly with each dish presented. The staff was so attentive and kind and explained each dish and each wine to us. It was a 10/10 experience that we will always remember. Highly recommend you go if you're in town!

We chose this restaurant to celebrate an important personal occasion — and we were absolutely thrilled. Unexpectedly, we got to try the brand-new tasting menu and were among the very first guests to experience it. It was an explosion of Mediterranean flavors — rich, fresh, and deeply layered. Sea urchin, oyster, sea cucumber, various types of fish, caviar, foie gras, squid — each ingredient was presented with finesse and great attention to detail. The atmosphere is calm and intimate, perfect for a date or a special evening. Service was professional, warm, and genuinely attentive. The wine selection was unusual and beautifully matched. We were truly impressed. Loved absolutely everything. The quality, flavors, service, and ambiance together fully deserve a perfect score. The current 4.4 rating feels genuinely unfair — this restaurant absolutely deserves 5 stars.

We try to visit all the best restaurants in Barcelona, and this time it was Xerta’s turn. We were lucky to go on the first day they launched their new menu the dishes were explosive, full of new flavors and textures. We were absolutely amazed. Xerta is now one of our favorite gourmet restaurants in the city. The service from the waiters and commis was excellent professional, friendly, and informative. Great job to the whole team. I absolutely recommend this restaurant for anyone looking to have a true gourmet experience and discover exciting new flavors.

I had such a great dinner in Xerta Restaurant. I was having a tasting menu with drinks what the sommelier and the team suggested me to have. Everything was amazing. My waiters Andres and Nora were super nice they really took care about details and how I feel myself during the night. I really enjoyed watching the kitchen between the courses. My favourite plates were the Mackerel and the Delta “mut” rice.

Conveniently located inside a hotel that shares their space with a sushi spot. I of course opted for the wine pairing. They have 3 options for the welcome drink. I opted for the yellow colored one. I’m however forgetting the name of it. The degustation menu is what I ended up getting instead of the one with two less dishes. They make one amazing dish which is the rice. It is so perfectly cooked. I feel like not one person who has had it would say they didn’t like it. The presentation alone had me so hyped. It was so good I found myself crying tears of joy. Like it wouldn’t stop to the point that I started to laugh at myself at the ridiculosity of it all. My table happened to have a great view of the kitchen. It was great to see the team as they worked as a team to get shit handled. The service was above and beyond. The floor team did a perfect job pacing every dish. Someone always refilled my water. The sommelier was amazing. He rolled out a cart of all the bottles used for the pairing. He handled the rude, drunk woman so graciously. That could never be me. I would’ve called her out for her rudeness. But he took her comments like a champ and turned it around

Food was amazing, service on point. Everything is right about the place, and the winelist is very impressive. The dishes are served out rather quickly; some people may like it like this, but I like to have some time between te dishes. If you just tell the waiter that you want a break inbetween they will listen to your wishes.

Had an amazing lunch tasting course at @xertarestaurant for my Barcelona trip, and it was an excellent choice! Loved the environment and the presentation of their food. Every dish was so memorable and my favorite had to be the rice served with duck!

The restaurant definitely deserves its Michelin star! The ambience is modern and elegant. The wine pairing was excellent and perfectly matched the food. The menu told a story and gave a nice insight into the Ebro region. It was varied, refined and of the highest standard. The service led us through the evening with great passion, enthusiastically presenting each dish and the story behind it. In addition, the staff were very courteous and attentive: As we had to wait 10 minutes for the bill, which we didn't even notice, we were invited for a cocktail at the hotel bar as compensation. All in all, a fine-dining address in Barcelona that you should visit!

We went for dinner and ordered the biggest taste menu on the list. All I can say is that it was once in a lifetime experience. We knew we are going to a Michelin star restaurant and our expectations were high, but the reality was even better. The food, service and atmosphere were simply outstanding and nothing we have experienced before. Note: if you want to order the biggest taste menu, make sure you go in very very hungry. Even though the portions are relatively small, there are so many of them that you will have a really hard time finishing off everything!

Frederik Kreutzer

Outstanding lunch at this *Michelin retaurant. Five servings filled with good stories and plenty of flavors. Everything focused around the delta south of Barcelona, where the chef comes from. I think the tuna serving is my all time favorite tuna. Really nice and broad wine list, pick some of the local wines and forget about the few "international" bottles in there. Good tip is to go for lunch, where they offer a good deal.

The food is wonderful with an Instagram-worthy presentation. Although the dishes are a little on the salty side, the flavor pairs beautifully with a glass of red wine. While I wish the portion sizes were a bit larger, the styling and taste more than make up for it. (Check out the photos in the “Product Menu” for a visual treat!) The service is truly exceptional. The staff takes the time to introduce every dish and explain the intended eating sequence. Their thoughtful gestures—even providing a bucket of water for our flowers—add a personal touch that makes the dining experience even more memorable.

KOSHER REVIEW Please beware, kosher nights are only available two Wednesdays of the month. Contact the restaurant in advance to confirm the date you want to go is available. The staff were super professional both when corresponding online, and once we arrived at the restaurant. We ate in a separate dining room which was less than comfortable, but it was still decorated nicely. The food is very adventurous, and there is only fish on the menu, which was slightly disappointing but the menu was shared in advance. If you love fish and are okay with experimental textures and flavors, you’ll love it. Otherwise, you probably won’t. I

We had the tasting menu for 105 euro per person (roughly $155 CAD). The flavors/dishes are more experimental contemporary. I enjoyed it, it was fun and interesting to try everything. Personally, I thought the portions were good and nicely plated. Many fine dining resturants I've been to clean the table surface in between each course, but they did not. It would've been nice if they did because there were a lot of crumbs falling out from some dishes. The staff were friendly, and the atmosphere was really nice.

Lamentablemente no salí ni sorprendido ni demasiado satisfecho. Probamos el Menú de Producto gracias a un regalo, pero ningún plato me pareció excelente. Los aperitivos apenas tenían sabor. Los platos de pescado me parecieron normales, pero para nada sorprendentes ni excelentes. La lubina estaba demasiado hecha, incluso en la mesa de al lado la devolvieron y la pidieron menos hecha. El arroz no estaba mal, pero no era nada especial. En un restaurante que presume de cocina del Delta me esperaba algo mucho más sabroso. El chuletón era ridículo de tamaño y con un gusto plano completamente. El servicio, siempre atento, fue demasiado lento, con esperas muy largas entre platos. Incluso se disculparon por ello en algún momento. En resumen: para el precio que tiene, me decepcionó bastante. No había nada malo, pero tampoco nada espectacular que se saliera del guión y te hiciera disfrutar. Todo muy plano.

A beautiful restaurant in a 5* hotel. Sorry but we were kind of disappointed in the experience. As some other reviewers have noted there is something perfunctory about the service. It seems to lack warmth and perhaps sincerity. The kitchen is open behind some vertical slats and the operation seems quite professional. The wait staff knows their lines and it seems they are reciting a memorized script at 1.5x normal speed. There are only about a dozen tables and there seem to be about 8 staff on the floor yet service was uneven. The poor somm was completely overwhelmed, literally running out to the wine storage in the lobby. He couldn’t keep up, get the poor guy some help. The food was mostly underwhelming with a couple of exceptions. The first course was a plexiglass rectangle on a wood/bamboo stand with 4 amuse bouches (Pro tip: for a Michelin star restaurant use glass). One of the amuse was a stale, almost inedible rice cracker with some fish (?). The other 3 were weird flavor combinations that didn’t work. There’s a lot of talk about the river delta where the chef is from and how this inspired the creations. Okay but it is not really working here. Wines were okay.

We had the Delta menu for lunch without wine. The food was mediocore with the exception of the entree and the desert which were good. The price is too high in my opinion. The service was enthusiastic but sub par for a restaurant such as this. A nice touch was that they asked if we had any allergies.

Reservamos para una cena de empresa . la sala ruidosa, nada insonorizada imposible hablar. El servicio fatal, ni tal sólo te dejaban una botella de agua en las mesas. La comida justa. El.arroz duro. la gallina cruda. Tenias que decir a los camareros que te sirvieran ya que las copas estaban varias. El café no preguntaron..a todas las mesas..en mi caso pedí infusión cuando vi que habían servido cafés. No vale la pena, ni por la comida ni por el cocal nonpor el.precio

Pedimos el menú degustación "Menú de Productos", toda una decepción, "sin sabor", y platos incoherentes, para comer con las manos y con dificultad, por ejemplo, un bombón salado que al cogerlo se des hacia en las manos, muy incómodo. El plato de carne, un zero, abundante salsa sin sentido, y con nervio, me lo tuve que sacar de la boca. Ahora entiendo por qué solo había dos mesas ocupadas. Hubiera estado bien que nos pusieran un plato y una hoja con los platos a degustar. Además los platos no corresponden con los que anuncian en la web. El ambiente muy desangelado y frío, pero no frío de temperatura. En resumen nada recomendable.

While I knew I had made a mistake as soon as I looked at the menu, I realized this wasn't the top paella restaurant that a waiter elsewhere had recommended. I said I'd finish my Sangria, pay, and leave. They said the lobster rice would definitely meet my paella expectations. Okay, they did give me some unexpected morsels. A bread slice was served (and later replaced with an additional slice) and (tap?) water was poured into my water glass. I requested neither, but accepted as they were presented. Unbeknownst to me, these were not gratis. The delivery of my rice dish in a smoking house was forced and awkward. Given that my stated desire was seafood paella... it was mediocre. I finished the small serving and paid (surprised about the water and bread on the bill).

Nuestra experiencia en Nochevieja fue, lamentablemente, muy decepcionante y muy por debajo de lo esperado para un restaurante de este nivel y un menú de 195 € por persona. Somos amantes de la buena gastronomía y hemos visitado muchos restaurantes de alto nivel en Barcelona; además, uno de nosotros es cocinero profesional. Por eso nuestras expectativas eran altas, especialmente tratándose de una cena tan especial. Desde el inicio hubo detalles negativos: el pan parecía claramente viejo y en varias ocasiones los platos llegaron a la mesa sin cubiertos, obligándonos a esperar para poder empezar a comer. El servicio fue desorganizado y poco profesional: platos y bebidas se servían y retiraban en diagonal, las bebidas no se presentaban ni explicaban y se rellenaban sin preguntar. El colmo fue que el cava para brindar por el Año Nuevo se sirviera alrededor de las 22:30, cuando ese momento debería cuidarse especialmente y realizarse a medianoche. En cuanto a la comida, el nivel fue muy irregular. El amuse-bouche fue lo mejor de la noche, pero los mariscos de los platos posteriores estaban mal cocinados. El mayor problema fue el risotto de bogavante, que tuvimos que devolver varias veces: el arroz estaba duro y el bogavante, en partes, crudo. Finalmente decidimos no comerlo, ya que un plato así no debería servirse nunca. La experiencia fue tan frustrante que abandonamos la cena antes de terminar el menú. También nos resultó muy extraño y poco profesional tener que pagar el importe completo por adelantado. Un depósito es comprensible, pero el pago total anticipado no es habitual ni siquiera en la alta gastronomía y no genera confianza como cliente. En conjunto, fue una Nochevieja muy decepcionante, tanto a nivel gastronómico como de servicio. Una gran lástima para una ocasión tan especial.

I had the full tasting menu and it was one of the worst 1 Michelin Star restaurant I’ve tried yet. The dishes started strong but from a certain point, it all went downhill. They served a dish with cod and sea cucumber, and the cod was chewy (rubbery) and had a hard piece of something that the wait staff told me was “crispy cod skin”. I’ve eaten crispy fish skin before and that wasn’t it. They also had a meat dish that was just.. dry. This is the first Michelin Star restaurant that I left disappointed and where I can’t wait to get the check and just leave 😭
