Grupo Tragaluz was founded in 1987 by Rosa Maria Esteva and Tomas Tarruella with Mordisco on Passeig de Gracia, growing to become one of Barcelona's most established restaurant groups. The Barcelona investment was 1.4 million EUR and created 30 jobs.

Specialty ingredients are imported from small Italian producers. Gluten-free pasta available.

Experience
Bosco de Lobos Dining Experience
A forest restaurant concept where guests eat surrounded by greenery without leaving the city. The 600 m2 garden with trees and vegetation was created by landscape architects in a former concrete courtyard. The interior by Francesc Rife Studio features oak wood, pressed earth blocks, and rope accents in a minimalist design. Open kitchen as centrepiece. Four zones: interior dining room, covered porch, terrace, and garden park. Laid-back and cosmopolitan.
