Game Changer - Edit
For me, this is still the vegan pace-setter in Barcelona. Quite a lot has changed here since our first visit in 2014 so I’ve updated my original review. It’s now 100% vegan for a start. This is an absolutely gorgeous intimate establishment serving intricately creative tapas style dishes in a splendid modernist but homely Barrio Gotico setting. For €29 you get a house appetiser followed by your choice of starter, main and desert or you can skip desert and pick another starter or something from the snack or breads menu such as their fabulous croquettes or a Catalan tomato bread. The food is truly excellent and prepared with dedicated precision. You will find some fantastic seasonal combinations here, the menu is dynamic and changes regularly. Rasoterra promotes the 'Slow Food' concept which puts emphasis on locally sourced ingredients and the distance traveled to reach the dining table. The natural wines here are selected very carefully which (in their own words) “mirror and showcase the lands that surround the city”. This is still unequivocally my top vegan establishment of all time.

Simply wonderful - Edit
We have tried many vegan places in Barcelona, and I have to say, not all are cut from the same cloth. While some are quite tasty, not many can be as innovative, creative and as delicious as Rasoterra. We had tried other higher end vegan restaurants and Rasoterra was one of the best we’ve been to. Each dish presented hit all the right senses, from the stylish plating to the taste and texture of the food. The staff were very informative regarding the excellent organic wines and the set menu. We would definitely go back the next time we’re in Barcelona. Thank you Rasoterra for a memorable meal!

A decent meal - Edit
Some dishes were great, and some were not. It has a fine dining presentation with good vegetable quality. You can see the love for creativity with the dishes. With that being said, some dishes were just a miss. Texture for some and flavor for others didn't match the hype.
Read moreThe atmosphere is enjoyable.
Pros: Atmosphere , Vegetable quality , Creative
Cons: Texture. Lots of mushy foods

Muy bueno! - Edit
Probamos su menú, nos encantó la crema de primero y la fideuá, aunque nos comentaron que cambian según la temporada. El entrante espectacular y el bizcocho con crema pastelera buenísimo. Nos gustó mucho también el concepto. Muy contentos de haber conocido este restaurante.

Great concept, overpriced. - Edit
I wanted to love Rasoterra, but despite their super friendly and cool staff, I felt it was lacking.
Read moreThe presentation, cost and vibe of this spot presents the feeling of high end gastronomy, while the execution unfortunately lacks the real flavor value to back its higher prices compared to other vegan restaurants in BCN. I get what they’re going for, I just feel they’re not hitting it yet in the kitchen to warrant their $32 pp fixed price menu.
This place is whole food vegetable heavy, health and environmentally conscious, which is top notch! It’s just unfortunate that I feel none of the 6 dishes I tried were mind blowing or memorable to a degree I’d want to revisit. They were great dishes, just not stellar.

High quality, modern cooking at its best. - Edit
Before our first trip to Barcelona I googled "Vegan, Michelin Restaurants" and Rasoterra's name popped up as a place that was heading in that direction. I couldn't believe that a 3 course meal for €32 a head would be as good as I hoped, but it was absolutely fantastic.
Read moreThe friendly staff explained in detail every dish and its ingredients presented to us (as you would expect from a high end eatery), but without any ponsy pretence that some restaurants we've eaten in have. They took us over to a display of all their wines to choose the one we wanted - a nice touch.
We were given a tasty little appetizer then we chose
JERUSALEM ARTICHOKE cream, confit shitakes, peas and pea pod emulsion
and
Baix Llobregat ARTICHOKES in escabeche, potato purée, spring onion, fermented artichoke leave juice
Home-made almond TEMPEH, romanesco broccoli, cauliflower, white chocolate, beetroot mayo
and
Baked, creamy and pickled CELERIAC, carrot roasted with nori seaweed, oriental leaves
Sour bread PUDDIN, pear ice-cream, spiced pear
Fennel PANNA COTTA, almond and basil pesto, crumble
I loved EVERY mouthful, especially the Jerusalem Artichoke cream and the Almond tempeh was nutty and much nicer than any I've had before. My husband was slightly disappointed with the puddings as he felt they weren't sweet enough, but I don't have a particularly sweet tooth and I particularly liked the Fennel Panna Cotta.
A great restaurant with lovely, helpful staff and ALL Vegan... heaven!
Pros: Fantastic food,, Relaxed atmosphere, , Helpful staff.

Extraordinary cuisine! - Edit
Our recent dining experience at Rasoterra was nothing short of extraordinary. For €32 per head, the three course meal plus appetiser exceeded all expectations.
Read moreThe staff are really knowledgeable about the food and also the natural wines. They were able to help us choose the perfect wine to suit our tastes.
We ordered a spinach croquette each to start with and it was like no other croquette we'd ever had. It set the tone for an incredible meal.
For us, the calcots and artichoke cream starters absolutely stole the show! Such complex flavours and beautiful presentation.
For mains, we order the fideau and cavatelli, which didn't quite match the excellence of the starters but were nonetheless delicious and satisfying!
Finally, for dessert, we ordered the wasabi truffles and fennel panacotta. The truffles were the clear winner here with their unique creamy twist of wasabi.
We visited many vegan establishments during our short Barcelona trip but Rasoterra was out absolute favourite. With impeccable service and surprising dishes, it is a must-visit for vegans in Barcelona!

Lovely vegan fine dining experience - Edit
Great fine dining experience, very professional service and loved the wine pairing I had with my meal. Natural ingredients and very high quality food. I visited in January so it was quiet, but the atmosphere was lovely, very tranquil. I did not enjoy my dessert as much as the other courses, it was quite watery tasting, but the flavours and ingredients were really unique and I’m so glad I went there.

Sets the bar for vegan fine dining - Edit
There are so few places in the world to have a fine vegan meal such as this. Local food, sustainability conceived dishes using the whole plant. House made fermented sauces and glazed. Rich and fresh flavors and textures. Or meal included a fennel panacotta, wasabi chocolate truffles with caramel glaze, coffee marinated breasts with dill and a citrus dressing, perfectly blanched greens, a virgin martini that was beautifully bitter and sweet, cauliflower and glazed tempeh with beet sauce and caramel nut sprinkles… it was way better than I’m making it sound. The wine is sulfate free. It is easy to eat the set menu gluten free. Memorable meal you should go!! #Veganuary

Interesting experience - Edit
For a gourmet restaurant it is quiet cheap. I got the Jerusalem artichoke, the green curry and the rius hazelnut cake.
Read moreI liked it there, except one of the waiters, I think, was visibly high and I must admit that I didnt like that. The other stuff was very friendly and kind.
Rasoterra
Thanks for your comment and opinions. We really appreciate you coming to visit. However you should be more cautious when you say certain things: we don't use any kind of drugs and we only drink water, apple juice or coffe before or during a service. The waiter you mention must have been busy, but certainly not high. Regards, Daniele, owner of Rasoterra
