Had an amazing start to our meal!

Mussels and clams:The mussels and clams were so tasty and perfectly cooked. Get the bread to dip in this sauce!

Sourdough bread with olive oil: had a great crust and softness inside of the bread, olive oil was delicious and was a bit fruity

Short rib: tender, well cooked, delicious sauce. Overall a great entree!

Paella: we ordered the paella with squid ink and it smelled good and tasted good... HOWEVER the rice was undercooked and crunchy. We let our server know and he mentioned that "this is how it's done in Barcelona and to ask for it to be cooked more next time when we order if we like our rice softer." I kindly disagree! I don't think anyone should be served undercooked rice. I would feel differently if we weren't met with an excuse. Anyways, a good beginning of the meal and the end of the meal left us wanting paella somewhere else.

After a full day exploring Barcelona, discovering Casa Amalia was a delightful surprise, especially since it was right next to our hotel. We were looking for a cozy place to have dinner, and our experience exceeded all expectations.

From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed, and Flor, who took care of us, made all the difference. She was incredibly kind and attentive, guiding us through the menu and helping us choose the perfect appetizers, main course, and dessert. Her recommendations were spot-on, enhancing our dining experience.

The food was exceptional—beautifully presented, full of authentic flavors, and clearly made with high-quality ingredients. Every dish reflected a thoughtful balance of taste and craftsmanship.

Without a doubt, Casa Amalia is a restaurant worth visiting. If you’re looking for a wonderful dining experience in Barcelona with excellent food and outstanding service, this is the place to go!

Fantastic Food, But Plan Ahead 😉

Casa Amàlia is a culinary gem, offering exceptional food and a warm, inviting ambiance. While our walk-in attempt wasn’t smooth—we were told the restaurant was fully booked until 21:45 despite many unoccupied tables—I managed to secure a reservation online for 21:15–21:30, which led to an unforgettable dining experience.

Once seated, everything was flawless. Each dish was beautifully presented, bursting with flavor, and crafted with care. The service was also impeccable—special compliments to the three ladies who served us on the upper dining level. They were attentive, friendly, and added a lovely personal touch to the evening.

To avoid any inconvenience, I highly recommend booking in advance. Casa Amàlia is absolutely worth it for anyone seeking outstanding food, excellent service, and an elevated dining experience!

The food was amazing and the quality of the ingredients was superb. However, it was a bit hard to get the servers attention and we waited quite a while before we got the menu. We sat outside and luckily the heater was on. The cheesecake and the paella were the stars of the show

I visit here every year, the food just keeps getting better. Great food, made from fresh products that are sold at the nearby market.
Like home-cooked food at my mother's, when at my grandmother's, it's amazing. I definitely recommend it and I'll definitely come back.
So many appetizers, starters and main courses. I've tried almost everything, nothing has disappointed. That feeling when you leave satisfied because the food was amazing!
The kitchen is fantastic, there's still room for improvement in service, but the chef is already a metal from heaven!
Thank you for the amazing food!
