Gigi von Tapas

L'Eixample


At this punchy tapas bar, bold flavours and creative presentation collide in delicious contemporary Spanish-international sharing plates like crunchy tofu doused in black-bean sauce or quinoa risotto topped with ricotta, lemon gel and leek-dusted asparagus. Dine at the marble-topped bar amid open-brick walls and straw bull heads, or out on the street. Homemade vermouth, Catalan wines and artisan cocktails, too.

The Irish owners are also behind Barcelona brunch sensations Milk and Marmalade.
