Una experiencia gastronómica de alto nivel. Nos gustaron mucho los platos, todo estaba muy rico y con muy buena presentacion. Mi mujer tenia alguna intolerancia y dos platos nos los cambiaron por otros dos sin problema. Muy atentos como corresponde a un lugar así. Nos gustaron especialmente los de gamba roja, buey de mar y mollejas. Aunque el tataki y los guisantes enanos, ESPECTACULARES. Además, nos sentamos en la barra y tuvimos la suerte de estar justo justo delante de cocina, a un metro literal! Vimos cómo trabajaban preparando los platos calientes, como hablaban, cómo incluso "batallaban" para realizar todos los platos por orden del chef. Cada uno se encargaba de algo aunque se apoyaban e intercambiaban sitios rápido para ayudararse entre ellos. Nos gustó ver la organización que hay en este en este tipo de cocina para conseguir llevar el plato a la mesa. Muchas organización y mucha rectitud. Una gran experiencia, tanto culinaria, como de trato. Y nos permitió ver por primera vez en un sitio así muy muy de cerca como trabajan. Muy muy entretenido y curioso. P. D; El misterio del cubo de hielo en la bayeta de limpieza puesto en la plancha... Nos lo solucionó el propuo chef en persona. Que estuvo toda la noche a 1 metro escaso de nosotros... Gracias CAELIS. Hasta la próxima!!

¡Alta cocina francesa, tradicional y vanguardista! Si lo que te apetece es disfrutar de una experiencia única reserva en barra, poder ver como cocinan estos magníficos chefs es un placer. Agradecer a Eddi por sus recomendaciones y trato, fue excelente. Disponen de diferentes menús, nosotros escogimos el Celebración, este combina los platos más emblemáticos con el producto de temporada. Es el más largo y nos costó llegar al final, pero todos y cada uno de los platos fueron para repetir. Perfecto para una ocasión especial, muy recomendable.

Experiencia Noviembre 2025 Fuimos en pareja para celebrar nuestro aniversario. Des del inicio el trato es excelente, muy profesional. El restaurante es bastante pequeño y la mesa donde nos situaron estaba un tanto mal ubicad, con mala iluminación. La explicación de los platos es concreta y para nada extensa, lo cual se agradece. Los platos que más nos gustaron: ternera de Girona, salmorete de roca a la brasa y el macarrón (eran 3 y se nos hicieron cortos). Lo que más me sorprendió fue el bombón vermouth que explotaba dentro de la boca con el calor. Los postres estaban buenos, entre el chocolate 70% y el petit fours nos llenamos mucho. Es una experiencia que merece la pena. Quizás el precio algo excesivo pero para una vez está bien.

Una maravilla de principio a fin. Presentaciones de lo más originales, desde los snacks hasta los petit fours. Producto de nivel y en un ambiente agradable, en el corazón de Barcelona. Merecida la Estrella Michelin y todos los galardones que ostenta Caelis. Pera repetir!

We had an amazing time at Caelis! The food and the presentation was excellent. The wine pairing was complementing all of the dishes very well, and I liked how most of it was from Spain. Service was professional and very nice. When we asked for a picture we were invited to have one together with the chef, and when we looked we were surprised by another most welcome and funny picture of one of the staff. Overall a great night!

Dining at Caelis in Barcelona was a sublime experience from start to finish. From the elegant atmosphere inside the Ohla Barcelona hotel to the beautifully presented tasting menu crafted by Romain Fornell—each course felt like a work of art and packed with flavour. The service was polished, the sommelier’s pairings enhanced every dish, and the open-kitchen setting added an exciting behind-the-scenes touch. If you’re looking to celebrate a special occasion or simply treat yourself, this is fine dining at its best.

An extraordinary dining experience at Caelis. Every dish is crafted with precision and creativity — from the bombón vermouth to the gamba de Palamós con bullabesa, each bite tells a story. The service is impeccable, the wine pairing (Clos Mogador 2021 🍷) exceptional, and the atmosphere elegant yet relaxed. One of Barcelona’s true culinary gems — Chef Romain Fornell delivers art on every plate.

One of few michelin star places with a vegetarian tasting menu. The flavours were beautiful. The pineapple air dessert was our favourite! And so were the bon bons

Camille Van Landegem

We had a great lunch experience at Caelis. Staff was well-trained and thoughtful. The lunch menu itself was lovely. The appetizers were a big hit - especially the small ball containing vermouth & the wasabi cracker with tuna tartar. Flavours were interesting, yet very accessible. And the best part: the price for this type of experience is very well set. We paid €65 per person for the lunch menu (excluding an aperitif & tip).

Yesterday, I had the immense pleasure of experiencing lunch at Caelis, and it was everything you'd hope for from a Michelin-starred establishment and more. From the moment I stepped in, the beautiful elegance and aesthetic of the restaurant created a captivating atmosphere, setting the stage for what was to come. The service was a masterclass in hospitality: professional yet wonderfully relaxed and full of life. It's rare to find such a perfect balance, making for a truly comfortable and enjoyable dining experience. The culinary journey began with appetizers that were fresh, delicate, and bursting with flavor. A true standout, even for someone like me who isn't usually fond of it, was the incredible white asparagus dish. It was perfectly cooked, served with a lovely velvety sauce and delicate trout eggs—truly a dish to remember. Another highlight was the sweetbread (mollejas), presented with its own rich reduction sauce and vibrant vegetables. The texture was amazing, and the flavors were deep and intense, showcasing remarkable skill. Indeed, the food throughout the meal was nothing short of consistently exceptional, delivering the high expectations one has for a Michelin-starred kitchen. It was a very well-rounded experience, exactly what you'd anticipate from a restaurant of this caliber. The wine pairing was a highlight, featuring exceptionally unique wines, some with limited runs of only 200 bottles! Our sommelier was not only incredibly knowledgeable, guiding us through these rare selections, but also possessed a truly lovely character, adding another layer of enjoyment to the meal. The maître was equally impressive – professional, friendly, and attentive. Chef Javi himself was delightful, and the entire team at Caelis ensured every detail was perfect. This is undoubtedly a place to come back to. If you're looking for an extraordinary culinary experience in Barcelona, Caelis should be at the top of your list.

A remarkable culinary journey from start to finish. Each course was a harmonious blend of flavor, texture, and presentation, showcasing both creativity and precision. The attention to detail and impeccable service made for an unforgettable dining experience. We were extremely full when we left! To add on, thank you for offering first-come, first-served service and for treating all guests with fairness and respect. It was truly appreciated.

A high-level restaurant, exceptional service, this is our first time at a Michelin restaurant and the experience was outstanding. All the dishes were beautiful and insanely delicious, with an explosion of flavors. Highly recommend, a must-visit.

I wish there were more stars to give. This place deserves better than to be among your standard 5 star restaurant. I sat at the bar overlooking the kitchen which was the perfect experience - watching the kitchen in such beautiful synchronization made me appreciate the attention to detail even more. The menu was 8 amuse bouche, 4 entree, 4 desserts. I asked the sommelier to pair my meal for me and he did. Every single item was delightful, delicate but interesting and rich in flavor. Enjoyed every moment of my 3+ hour experience. On top of that, the price for this Michelin star experience was super reasonable compared to Michelin star restaurants in other European cities. (For those wondering about dress - many were fancied up but I was in business casual with jeans and a blazer and did not feel uncomfortable.)

This is a once in a lifetime dinning experience. We had the chef tasting menu. Every course was extraordinary. They also had a vast wine menu, and cocktails were top notch. The service was everything you hope for in a Micheline star restaurant.

Having a wonderful lunch on 12 Oct. Without doubt, the 75 Euro 4-course meal with white and red wine paring was one of the best value for money we had ever spent. The appetizer was an incredible combination of Japanese and Mediterranean style seafood. The first main dish was a thick salmon steak that made me wonder how to cook it so that the core was so tender without burnt surface. The second main dish is well-prepared pork, perhaps a little bit greasy but soon perfectly offset by potato-pumpkin pile and red wine. I definitely recommend it.

A well-deserved Michelin star for this restaurant. I had the tasting menu and the flavours and creativity of cuisine was impressive. Service was warm and attentive. Where the savoury dishes really had flare, I found the desserts were somewhat derivative. Still a good experience overall.

First off, beautiful hotel. Walk right in, up the first flight of stairs and the host will greet you. We had 9:15pm Reservations and chose the Celebration menu which was WORTH double what we paid in my opinion. Do yourself a favor, splurge and add the wine tasting. Entire restaurant has clean, elegant, Michelin star vibes that is most certainly deserves. I would give Caelis a sixth star in every category if it would let me. Every single dish had love and passion put into it and the taste matched this. Unique flavors, amazing cocktails to match and the wine pairing was spot on. If you are looking for that one place to sit and just enjoy the company you are with and a culinary experience this is the place. Do not go in thinking this is a quick meal and you are onto the next place, this is truly a experience and journey. We sat at 9:15pm and were done around 12:45am and I will tell you, worth every second and every Euro spent. Truly Thank you for the Experience.

Fuimos para celebrar un cumpleaños. Y nos sorprendio mucho la calidad de la comida. El SOMELIER un 100, muy cercano y amable. Muy buen servicio. Eso si, estate preparado para estar muchas horas y comer raciones muy pequeñas.

Todo increíble y el servicio inmejorable, pero nos dio pena que los postres no fueran tan buenos como el resto de platos, seguro que para otras personas si, es toda una experiencia.

Fuimos a Caelis para celebrar un año más juntos, como solemos hacer en una ocasión tan especial, eligiendo un restaurante con estrella Michelin. Hemos probado ya varios y, en general, la experiencia aquí fue muy buena y recomendable. Muchos de los platos nos gustaron muchísimo, con sabores muy cuidados y una presentación impecable. Hubo algunos que, en mi opinión, se quedaron un poco cortos o no sorprendieron tanto, pero en conjunto fue una cena muy agradable. El maridaje estuvo genial, y la persona que nos lo explicó fue excelente: cercana, profesional y muy atenta en todo momento, lo que sumó mucho a la experiencia. Sí es cierto que eché un poco en falta ese factor "wow" que a veces tienen otros restaurantes de este nivel, y hubo un detalle que me sorprendió negativamente: llamé la atención de una camarera en un par de ocasiones y no me hizo caso, algo que no suele pasar en este tipo de locales y que me pareció extraño. Aun así, lo recomendaría para una celebración importante. El sitio está muy bien, se come de maravilla y es una experiencia que merece la pena vivir.

Experiencia de Diciembre 2025. Hicimos el menú con maridaje. Algunos platos estaban brutales: Sabores finos, bien presentados, y momentos donde realmente pensabas: “vale, esto es alta cocina”. El maridaje acertado: vinos bien elegidos, explicados con detalle y que encajaban con los platos. El sitio mola, es elegante sin ser frío. El servicio bien, correcto sin más. Eso si, vale la pena respecto al precio? En mi humilde opinión si esperas una experiencia redonda y memorable, quizá se te quede corto para lo que pagas. Hay sitios en Barcelona donde por menos tienes una cena más equilibrada y sin pretensiones.

Cenamos muy bien todos los platos nos gustaron. Servicio en general bueno excepto que no me sirvieron agua con gas cuando estaba bebiendo sin. El maridaje de vinos solo empieza con los segundos, una pena porque son “pocos” al final pero todos buenos. Empezamos a pasar calor a un momento pero resolvieron muy rápido poniendo algo de aire. La experiencia genial en general solo estos detallitos que no esperas en un lugar así.

We chose the Earth and Sea menu (125€) and as it was a special occasion also treated ourselves to the wine pairing (85€). Everything was tasty and worth the wait. However 45mins till we started the experience was certainly a wait. The somelier was excellent, as was the wine. The waitress service was ok, functional and going through the motions rather than enjoying her job it felt. Recommended for a special occasion or a real treat.

Located in Ohla Barcelona hotel with the avant garde eyes all over. Sea and earth menu dinner: - the main critique would be the pacing, overall dining in Spain is frame shifted later than the rest of the world but I felt for the number of courses I was surprised that the last course only came out past 11pm! Comparing with the other tables we felt that the pacing of ours was slower and we were left with the impression that they had not enough staff. - the appetizers and amuse bouches were their strongest. The coloured butters of rosemary, olives and tomato felt slightly bland, would have preferred if the butters were more salted. - the dessert course of various chocolate textures with the liquid nitrogen chocolate granita felt slightly gimmicky, esp when served at 11:30pm. I felt that it was overall too rich and almost monotonous.

Caelis offers a memorable dining experience with three distinct tasting menus: an extended version of around 20 items, a more condensed 15-course menu, and a vegetarian menu of the same length. The creativity and ambition are evident throughout the courses, though some dishes shined brighter than others. The highlights of the evening were without question the tuna belly and vermouth bombón—both refined, flavorful, and absolutely show-stopping. The veal and potatoes from the main courses were also excellent. On the other hand, some items missed the mark: the pâté from the appetizers lacked depth, and the grilled red mullet had an overly strong fishiness that detracted from the experience. Desserts ended the night on a high note. The cheese selection was well-curated, and the petit fours were delightful, but the standout was the chocolate dessert—a brilliant play with liquid nitrogen that created chocolate crumbles, both fun and delicious. Service was impeccable overall, with an attentive sommelier who guided us toward excellent wine pairings. The staff was professional and welcoming, though the pacing of courses was inconsistent—sometimes dishes arrived too close together, other times the gaps felt a bit too long. For a one-star Michelin restaurant, Caelis delivers very good food and a polished experience, but not every dish reached the same level of excellence. Still, it’s a worthwhile stop for a special night in Barcelona, with small improvements that could make it truly outstanding.

La comida es buena pero el servicio en general no fue muy bueno, en primer lugar nos empezaron a traer platos sin haber decidido el menú que íbamos a pedir. Por otro lado tuvimos que llamar tres veces para poder pedir el vino, vino que trajeron equivocado. Nos dimos cuenta en la presentación del vino antes de abrir la botella y al decírselo tardo diez minutos en volver y decirnos que no quedaba del vino que habíamos pedido, finalmente pedimos otro. Por otro lado es normal en estos restaurantes se lleven la botella y te vayan rellenando, pero en este caso tuvimos que pedir tres veces que nos rellenasen las copas, cosa que nunca nos ha pasado en otros restaurantes. En conclusión la comida es buena pero la experiencia no acompaña. Según mi punto de vista sobrevalorado.

Sigh…Mediocre and too salty. Attentive service, the one glass of wine I had was lovely, however our expectations for this Michelin restaurant were not met by the food. It started alright (we chose the Celebration tasting menu), but progressed to heavy, salty, fishy dishes one after another. Each one was too rich and salty, leaving no space on your palate for any other flavor. I’m sad to say that we were just eager for the dessert at some point. A better menu would include some fresh dishes, some simple ones, some light…not all fish, salt, butter…for the $550 we just spent we wish we’d eaten at any of the basic restaurants around the Gothic quarter instead. This was my husband’s first fine dining experience and he unfortunately said he’ll likely never try again because it isn’t worth it. While we are unlikely to return to Caelis, I hope the menu will get an overhaul so others don’t leave feeling like they wasted their money and time.

Unfortunately we found the food quite boring and not that tasty. The level of execution was not high and flavours were bland. We expected much more. The service was lovely, however not as professional as I’d expect. My husband’s fish was very undercooked compared to my fish and my friend’s fish, and he didn’t eat it. They cleared the table without saying anything about it, we saw the waiter called like 5 people who all looked at it and opened it with a knife but still the said nothing to us. At the end of the meal they asked how was the food (should be asked when the food is at the table), we said the fish was undercooked and she just said “oh 🙁”. They did nothing about it! Other than that the staff we met were friendly and welcoming, the wine was delicious, the cheeses at the desert were great - but really the food really fell short. I also see in the comments here the price was once €48 and now it’s €60 / €75 - in my opinion, not worth it. Sorry:(
