Atipical is Italian chef Matteo Bertozzi's neighborhood project in el Poblenou, opened in summer 2025 after he left his Raval venues My Fucking Restaurant and Bar Assalto.
Background
About Atipical
The Story
Atipical opened in summer 2025 as Italian chef Matteo Bertozzi's neighborhood project in el Poblenou. Bertozzi previously ran My Fucking Restaurant and Bar Assalto in El Raval before stepping back from the pressures of high-end rankings and tourism-driven dining to build a smaller, neighborhood-scaled kitchen focused on creative, seasonal cooking.
The Cuisine
Atipical's creative cuisine blends Asian and Mediterranean traditions. The daily lunch menu leans on Bertozzi's Italian heritage with straightforward, well-priced plates, while dinner service opens up to more adventurous preparations such as judías verdes con miso and Cantonese-style pork cheeks. The kitchen shows particular care with vegetables and works through a seasonal rotation.
The Team
The restaurant is led by chef and owner Matteo Bertozzi, the Italian chef behind My Fucking Restaurant and Bar Assalto in El Raval. At Atipical he works with a small team on a menu that rotates with the season and is built around local, sustainable ingredients.
