Gresca

Gresca is where you are likely to find Barcelona's top chefs on their night off. Rafa Peña and his wife, Mireia Navarro, lead this restaurant, which has achieved nearly cult status. It is easy to see why, as the sourcing is impeccable; you will enjoy the very best vegetables, the most desirable fish and the most coveted meats. Locals enjoy booking at the bar in front of their fancy kitchen, which connects with the annex (Gresca Bar), a more informal place dedicated to serving natural wines.
