Here you can find my favourite restaurants in Barcelona, which are not focused on Spanish cuisine. Some Japanese, Italian, or maybe even Indian. Take a look!

Silan
@mimozacendey
I love this middle-eastern, lebanese/israili restaurant, and I think my favourite challah bread is here. They have outside seating area too which is nice in warm weather, and very friendly service.

Robata
@mimozacendey
Right across Silan, there is Robata. It is pricey but it has great sushi and it might my my favourite in Barcelona. It has beautiful ambiance too for a cosy romantic date night. A reservation is a must.

Parking Pizza - Parking Pita
@mimozacendey
Parking Pizza is this huge place on Paseo San Joan and it has great pizza. Probably a lot of people's go-to pizzeria when you want to devour some. They also have other branches in Barcelona, the original one being the one on Calle Londres.

Le Cucine Mandarosso
@mimozacendey
Aaah, this is the cutest place. It is an Italian restaurant and they only focus on pasta, they don't have pizzas. The tiramisu is also very good. You have to book a table beforehand cause it's tiny, but it's a well kept secret!

Veg World India
@mimozacendey
Very very local, no tourist will know this place. An amazing Indian in Gracia which is vegetarian.

Honest Greens Plaça Catalunya
@mimozacendey
This place used to be my favourite healthy-plates go to, however since I do have a delicate stomach and random things bloat me, I realized that some things I eat there bloat me a lot. BUT, I don't want this to stop you from trying it cause it is one of the best healthy spots in town and the fact that they are opening a new branch all the time proves this.

Botafumeiro
@mimozacendey
White table cloths, waiters in white suits, pricey and posh, but may be the best seafood restaurant in Barcelona. If you are a lover of seafood, make this your celebration night.

This is a world-cuisine restaurant, dedicated to the grandmothers of the world, taking inspiration from different countries and recipes. The food is great, the cocktails are amazing.

Xemei
@mimozacendey
Known as the best Italian restaurant in Barcelona, it is based in Napolitan cuisine, offering seafood and pasta. Higher prices but definitely worth it.

The Green Spot
@mimozacendey
The best vegetarian restaurant in town for sure! The one in Barceloneta has a beautiful ambiance and the one in Diagonal has a disco at the end which starts at 23:00. Which happens to be my favourite disco.

Guanabara by El Rodizio
@mimozacendey
This is an incredible rodizio, a Brazilian restaurant, where you pay a fixed price for an open buffet, which is followed by limitless meat coming to your table and cut by the waiters. You leave the restaurant rolling on your belly.
