Simple, cheap, fresh and delish. Was staying at the Sofia Hotel, worth the 15 min walk. Rustic in all senses.

We found this place while strolling around Camp Nou, the hosts were super warm & welcoming. The two ladies helped us with the food, wine selection inspite of not knowing how to communicate with us in English. The rabbit & steak we had were delicious. Portions are big. Would love to eat again here. I would go to this place again just for the warmth of the hosts too. Almost all customers were regular locals (families with kids).
