We booked Montiel on the basis of other Trip Advisor reviews for my birthday meal and we both enjoy sampling taster menus, especially with wine pairings. The first thing that struck us even before the first dish was delivered to our table was the enthusiasm and knowledge of our waiter. When the staff have such clear confidence in the food... More

We were so excited about both the reviews on TA and on reading their own website – fresh daily produce prepared and cooked under chef’s directions and only a choice of 2 menus; the contents of which you have no knowledge of until you arrive – what could be more exciting?! From this you can gather we were looking forward... More

Montiel is a Gem at the Barrio Gotico of Barcelona. If you are a gourmet, don't miss the experience. Is my favorite Restaurante in the City that I visit every year. You can order "a la carte" or surrender to the astonish menu that they offer. You will need at least 2 hours to enjoy the experience at Montiel, where... More

On the advice of T.A Excitedly booked a table in this place. The food was ok we opted for the tasting menu, all the food seemed to be lacking a little flair and passion. We had about 10 courses but still managed to leave the place hungry. There's lots of better restaurants in bcn so would advise skipping this if... More

The food is very good, but what made the dinner so fantastic was the warm and thoughtful service. We mistakenly had a reservation for the following night, but the host (I forget his name, but I know that he plays a lot of football when not working) was so gracious and accomodating that it did not matter. He was also... More

Ever since I came here for the first time six years ago, this piece of cooking-passion-heaven has offered us the best food and emotions. With a team headed by Marcos and Ferran, the greatest of hosts, you can always find the fresher ingredients from the season and nearby providers. A great experience. Today we enjoyed the set taste menu and... More

Came here per the reviews in TripAdvisor. Came in at 10pm and we were warmly greeted by the staff. We ordered the "Tasting menu" with wine parings. Our server was very knowledgeable and friendly and did very well in explaining the individual wine pairings, which were delicious. The let down was several of the food courses. The soup was first...

We went to Montiel for my dad's birthday while we were in Barcelona. The dinner definitely was a good celebration. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. The menu is a little different in that you choose between two taster menus and you get whatever comes on those menus. You can also kind of pick and choose some... More

We stayed at Hotel Cituat, so I looked for above average nearby restaurants on TripAdvisor. Montiel received great ratings and was half a block away. They offered two prefix menus (50 & 65 euros) and an excellent wine paring for 25 euros. We had one menu on our first visit, and enjoyed it so much we went back three days... More

the food was average, good presentation but low taste. the restaurant room has no interrest. The price (except for the wine) is very high. For two, the cost was 170 euros : two menus, bottle of wine and water and expressos. it was our most disapointing food experience in Barcelona....We went here thanks to trip advisor as the trip advisor...
