About
This unique spot has been open for more than 50 years and acts as a magnet for all sorts of locals—shop assistants, pedestrians on the Ramblas, business executives, civil servants and politicians all wait patiently for their turn at the bar. There is no menu and the owners—Juanito and his family—simply announce what is on offer and take an order. These are just a few of the specials you might get to try—Artichoke Omelette, Stew, Grilled Norway Lobsters, Lentils, a wide array of rice dishes and clams à la Marinera. The restaurant even has its own cava (Spanish sparkling wine), called "Pinotxo."
