L'Osteria del Contadino

3 reviews of L'Osteria del Contadino

A+

By far, one of my favorite Italian restaurants. The place has it all: greaty quality food, perfect decoration and excellent service. I guess we're not the only ones who think like that, the night before (Friday) we gave it a try and there was no way to get a table. So here is my first piece of advice: in the weekend, book beforehand.

The second one could only be the following: if you have someone to seduce... You have to go to Al Contanido to satisfy his or her palate. I will tell you why little by little. It is a good place to go with children too, there are special dishes for them and most importantly some color pencils on the table, ideal for them to decorate the tablecloth according to their taste. We were served by one of the managers, a star.


To begin with we had a delicious antipasto made of many things; then we had truffle pasta, very good but we decided to share one and it turned out to be too little. When I ordered it the "star" manager warned us of the price and asked how much of it we wanted (in grams). I asked for advice and he kind of failed to answer the right amount. For dessert a delicious cheesecake, an A+. I think I forgot about one dish, well... If I remember I'll post it here.

And now the curious anecdote. At some point the manager caught me taking a video and said: "I'll have to ask for credit". As he is Italian I didn't understand very well and didn't know how to react. I quickly understood he was joking. But even so I told him I loved sharing my favorite spots on minube and he was very happy about it. He was so happy that he actually told us that next time we would have to tell him in advance and he would put us in THE SECRET ZONE OF THE RESTAURANT. Amazing. It is separated from the rest with lovely curtains, really charming. He told us that a client had come to the restaurant four times the week before, each time with a different girl... An A+ Italian restaurant in the middle of the neighborhood of Gracia.

Good value for price

It is a tiny Italian restaurant. The decoration is very authentic, it totally looks as if you were in Italy. On the table there are pots with color pencils to draw on the tablecloth, quite curious! The service might be the best and most professional I have ever seen. An Italian waitress, very nice, knows the menu by heart and how the dishes are made, the same for each one of the wines, I was very impressed...

But, without a doubt, the best part of it is THE QUALITY of the food, the best Italian I have ever been too (including those in Italy), and with a very good value for price. It is a place to have a relaxed dinner, enjoy the evening and quite romantic to go as a couple.

You should try it, I recommend it!
