## About Disfrutar

Disfrutar is playful only because the technique is so secure. Oriol Castro, Eduard Xatruch, and Mateu Casañas take the El Bulli inheritance seriously without embalming it: multi-spherification, frozen textures, hidden broths, and trompe-l'oeil snacks are deployed in service of momentum rather than nostalgia. The Eixample room is bright and open, which makes the menu's tricks feel more direct. Three stars and a World's 50 Best title have not made it stiff; the pleasure is still in being surprised and fed well at the same time.

## Menu highlights

1. ★★★★★ 5.0 Editorial sample The cooking is polished without feeling anonymous, especially when the kitchen leans into creative detail instead of luxury for its own sake. It is expensive, but the service rhythm and wine advice made the longer menu feel measured. — Sarah Mitchell · 22 May 2026
2. ★★★★★ 5.0 Editorial sample Disfrutar feels completely anchored in Eixample: the room, pacing, and classic disfrutar menu all make the meal feel specific rather than imported. The strongest courses had a clear point of view and enough restraint to avoid turning dinner into a demonstration. — Yuki Tanaka · 14 March 2026
