One of my favourite restaurants. Amazing house made gluten free bread! When I mentioned I was gluten free the server recommended their gf bread and I was not disappointed. They also have a gf version of their famous Basque cake. Only 3 items on the menu aren’t gf - though I am not Celiac so can’t speak to how their kitchen works.

Excellent outdoor eating experience. Alessandro, a partner at the restaurant, answered all my questions about the menu, and protocol in the kitchen, with patience and care prior to eating there. He also briefed the staff when I arrived so there was clear communication when dishes arrived at the table. They have a dedicated gluten-free fryer so I could eat the delicious patatas bravas and the aioli is GF. I also had the meet and cheese plate and the steak. The bread they say is GF does not have GF oats so I avoided that. I could eat two desserts-the frozen nougat and the chocolate ganache. Roped with a glass of cava, everything was delicious.

Great experience. Menu doesn’t tell you which items are GF but servers are knowledgeable (and when don’t know, check with kitchen). Most items can be made GF. Delicious food.

10/10 - amazing place for Spanish / Catalonian food. Most options are naturally GF, but the waiter pointed out which weren’t. If you’re not picky about shared grill, then most meat options are available too. Theres GF bread which you didn’t even get charged extra for so could easily substitute the bread containing meals. Also there was a GF basque cake that was absolutely delish. It was such an enjoyable experience and I felt so comfortable and like “normal” which I haven’t felt in a long time :’)
