Well done metal design In the Castro restaurant: hot and cosy place due to his exquisite lighting, sensual for his surrounding and agreeable music. You'll find fresh market and of Mediterranean' cuisine, with original plates like sirloin of Australian kangaroo.

Buen restaurante, local pequeño pero muy acogedor, ambiente agradable e intimo. Decorado metálico muy original.
La cena esta muy bien, tienes donde elegir, al igual que muy buenos vinos. El servicio de camareros es muy atento y rapido. El precio esta dentro de la logica para lo que comes, no es barato, pero tampoco caro.
No es un restaurante de animación ni espectaculo, sino mas bien para cenar tranquilamente y charlar mientras lo haces.
Lo mejor.: servicio, precio-calidad, variedad, ambiente.
Lo peor: local algo pequeño
Disappointing, and then a roach.

Contrary to the description in one of the Barcelona guides I picked up upon arrival, the waiters at Castro were not dressed in black leather. Also did not see the "aphrodisiac menu" on offer.

Anyway, I had the fettuccine with vegetables, which was a little on the bland side. The chicken stuffed with apples and raisins with curry sauce was better, although a little overdone. Partner had a decent beetroot gazpacho. Tuna steak was also overdone, but almost there in terms of quality. Wine recommended by the waiter was satisfactory.

Unfortunately, our dining experience was ruined when a cockroach appeared. The table next to ours called it to the waiter's attention, but his response was apparently that it was the first roach he's seen in a year. He then used a napkin to brush the roach onto a floor, still alive and crawling around. Yucks.
Rice no too good

Hi, i liked the atmosphere, but food was quite normal, and even though we had no wine, the bill was high 148 euros (3 persons). Service was good. Maybe the restaurant is too small and has no windows at all! RIce was too cooked, and fish wasn't fresh. Sorry.

locale accogliente buona cucina internazionale buona musica di sottofondo ed un impeccabile servizio con un contorno di simpatia e ospitalità da non perdere un saluto a tato
Very average food

Very original decor however if you're main objective is really nice food then Castro is not the best choice. The food is very average and definitely overpriced.

One of the best Gay restaurants in the world. We travel at least 4 x per year from Amsterdam to Barcelona to have dinner in Castro!
