This restaurant is small, downtown Badalona, and has the best service and food. Their Allioli is made with egg whites and is exceptional. The waiter taught us how to make a couple of things as the night was quiet, since there was some festival on the beach that evening. We had 3 different dishes and they were all top notch!

Interesting Italian restaurant hidden away in Carrer Sant Miquel. I must have walked past it many times but had never noticed it.
We were there for dinner on Saturday and it is obviously very popular. It’s not very big so reserving is probably important.
The service was very intimate and we felt like valued guests, advice was given where needed and we were well looked after.
The menu is fairly short, basically pasta (no pizza) but the food when to came was very good.
The restaurant is attractive, and they have old Italian films playing projected against the wall at the back of the restaurant which was a nice touch.
I expect that we will be back before too long!

The location of the restaurant alongside the Badalona industrial estates means that the lunchtime crowd is large and the evening eaters less. Open every days from 13.00 - 16.00 hours for the midday "menu" service, two courses, pudding and coffee, wine and bread for 20 odd euros. Expensive as daily menus go, but very, very good. On Thursdays (paella) unless you're there at 13.00 hours you wont't get in without a reservation. They only open on Friday evenings at 21.00 when you can expect to eat the same high quality meal at a slightly higher price (some 30 euros/head) but in a much more leasurely pace. If you're in Badalona on business, well worth the visit. Not really a family restaurant, unless the kids are older.

I was lucky enough to stumble upon this restaurant in Badalona, and now we are regular customers with my boyfriend.
I came with high expectations as I've been in Asia several times and I've been eating spicy since childhood. My boyfriend on the other hand grew up on spaghetti with tomato sauce and eats mild food only. The fact that two people with completely opposing tastes both leave this restaurant happy speaks volumes about the quality.
The food is genuinely authentic, provided there is a Pakistani cook, this alone is not always easy to find. I suggest that you ask for advice from the lovely owner and as a number one rule: by all means mention the level of spicy-ness you prefer! Spanish and Catalan people do not generally eat spicy food so understandably the cook will be careful unless you mention that you like your food spicy.
I highly recommend making the trip from Barcelona to eat at this restaurant, so go for it, relax, and pamper your tastebuds to the exotic journey the food at Tariq can take you on!

We arrived in Badalona for lunch with family and friends. The first impressions of the restaurant was one of incredibly good food. We were not disappointed. The staff and service was second to none. We were shown to a table outside in a garden area and then we ordered from a great range of classic Catalan dishes with a fusion twist. The food was all delicious and one could tell that all the food items were prepared from scratch. We all really enjoyed our lunch and the children were well entertained by the kiddies corner. We highly recommend and rate this restaurant as a must see when you are in Badalona. Mick Harvey and family.

Comfortable place and good atmosphere, that's what you could find when you enter in the restaurant. The service is good, smart, polite and selfish.
You could find a good variety in the menu, some of the dishes that I tasted are excellent and the presentation is also good.
If you want to impress you couple/partner/mate with quality/price dishes you should visit.
I'll be back as soon as possible.
