Background

About Desgraciats

The Story

Desgraciats has been serving its Gràcia neighbourhood since 2005, originally on Carrer Torrent de les Flors and now at Carrer de la Providència. The unpretentious restaurant attracts locals and regulars with an informal atmosphere and original paintings on the walls, including a small corner ideal for groups.

The Cuisine

The menu draws on quality seasonal produce and keeps prices attractive. Lunch is a fixed €13 menu with choices like salad with goat cheese, escalivada toast with tuna and anchovies, foie micuit with apple purée, vegetable cannelloni, and mains such as braised oxtail in Montsant wine, entrecôte with Café de Paris or Cabrales, or cod au gratin with garlic and quince oil. An evening group menu (€27.95) adds dishes like gambas a l'allada, homemade croquettes, and fresh black pasta with prawns.

The Team

Desgraciats is run by David Gómez, who trained in the kitchen of Agut in the Gothic Quarter, alongside Albert Targarona. The pair have overseen the restaurant since it opened in 2005.
