UMA

Food was terrific. The chef has a passion for delicious food by combining interesting flavors. Love the open cooking concept as the kitchen is out in the open for everyone to see. The chef prepared each dish by himself, and he put great care into each one. Plating was well done, and they were able to accommodate dietary restrictions well. Had the full course menu, but was a little surprised that it did not feature more items for the price. The menu came to 186 euros per person. To me, this feels like something that would have been with 2 or 3 more items at least. They said the base menu was 125 euros and sold us on the full menu by saying it would come with meat and some surprises from the chef. There were no surprises, or at least they didn't tell us what those surprises were, if/when they brought them out. They also recommended the cheese plate, which was an extra 30 euros. We tried it...nothing special. It should have been included in the price of the upgraded menu, in my opinion. Wine was terrific. Really complimented the dishes and was recommended perfectly. Dessert at the end was also delicious way to end the night.

There were only three tables while I was there and three servers who each had a hand in caring for all of us. They thoroughly explained each of the twelve dishes I got to experience. I say experience because it was an experience! The taste profiles, incredible. I added the wine pairing option, which was the right choice. I also chose the full tasting menu, also the right choice. I got to watch the chef teach his intern for the day and he took some time out of cooking to check in with me and ask me how my experience was. I feel that’s fairly rare for a chef to do. I have never done anything quite like this before and feel so grateful my first experience was at Uma. Wonderful chef, food, atmosphere, staff. It made my trip to Barcelona very special!!!!! Definitely make a reservation, I’m not sure that they take walk in clients. They also ask you ahead of time for any dietary restrictions so they can accommodate those.

A shout out to all staff at Uma restaurant. From the chef to servers and sous chefs... Too notch service. The art of perfection. The serving of food on the dish was perfection. Did not have to wipe the dish. Every placement of food was intended in the its right spot. They serve all tables altogether like being at a your families house for dinner. The food was top notch. Enjoyable small servings. Delicious courses

It was an absolutely amazing experience! I highly recommend everyone to visit this restaurant. The service was exceptional, the food was delicious, and the atmosphere was just perfect. Every detail made the evening unforgettable.

My girlfriend and I went for dinner here and the experience was amazing. Surprising and delicious dishes with aesthetic presentation. The waiters were kind and explained every dish to us and if we had questions the chef took his time to answer any doubts. We had the classic menu with the wine tasting and got the extra truffel for the pasta. Everything was great and we can recommend the place to others.
