Background
About Transatlàntic
The Story
Transatlàntic sits in La Ribera, the El Born stretch of Ciutat Vella, Barcelona's old town. It's a casual, home-cooking restaurant rather than a special-occasion one, with breakfast and lunch service and a relaxed everyday feel.
The Cuisine
The cooking is traditional Spanish and Mediterranean, the kind of unfussy home-style food you'd want on a regular weekday. Expect a straightforward menu rather than tasting-menu theatre, with wine, beer, coffee and dessert all served. Prices stay under €25.
The Team
The kitchen leans on familiar Spanish and Mediterranean home cooking, the everyday dishes done plainly rather than reinvented. The focus is approachable, sit-down food for lunch and breakfast.
