Aleia Restaurant

We had a wonderful evening in this restaurant，it was my and my husband‘s birthday that night，and the waiters offered a very good service，they helped us to take photos and cut a cake for us.Unfortunately，we forgot to give tips which I am sorry about that until now，I hope we can come back one day and make up for it.

Visited Barcelona for the first time for convention and wanted to do a nice meal for my group. We had a 7:30 reservation on Tuesday evening and walked into a strangely empty restaurant. The ambiance was clean and chic, and the service team did a great job of explaining how the tasting experience would go. The meal itself was great, with some major hits like the tuna and radish with a clear tomato juice to the impeccably executed snapper. By the end of the 10 course, 15 dish meal, we were so full we were barely able to walk away from the table. Who says you can’t get full off of fine dining?? Overall, we had a great dining experience with plenty of wow factor. Definitely recommend Aleia for a special occasion!

From the moment I stepped in I was well looked after. Paula, my hostess, greeted me warmly and took me to where "we have prepared your table". The tasting menu was introduced and wine pairings discussed. The food was served impeccably and was a culinary trip to heaven. Anchored in local flavors and ingredients, Chef Rafa draws on French as well as oriental influences. Every dish in a sequence of 15 was a culinary adventure and delight. The service never wavered from attentive and warm. A superb experience.

It was a great experience and an interesting journey between tradition and innovation. Still a small step to perfection but definitely worth a visit!

Michelin quality food, but service was not impressive, not at a level of a 1star, uniforms where not tailored, and wait staff looked bored
