A contemporary take on Empordà cuisine. This is the essence of Castell Peralada Restaurant. After years of success at El Bulli and Mas Pau, chef Xavier Sagristà and head waiter and sommelier Toni Gerez, have designed an offer of haute cuisine that reinter

I was a part of a group of classic cars. We had an early dinner here. The place is historic and very well maintained. The food was superb and so was the service. A must visit place. Thank you very much for sharing your opinion. We're very happy that you enjoyed your visit. Hope to see you soon again.

No matter if you choose the daily fixed menu or the whole menu, it is always excellent. It is located in the courtyard of an old building, plenty of trees (shadow welcome!) and nice coloured flowers. But the food is even better than the environtment. Well cooked vegetables, grilled or in a soup, best grilled squids I have ever had, great fish and meat grilled in a live barbeque... what else can you asked for? A good selection of wines? Yes you have it too. And what about the price? No issues on that. Daily menu just 19eur including everything. And if you choose 'a la carte', 30-40 per person, in line with other alternatives in the village.Every summer we come here many times and we'll keep doing so in the future.

A highly popular buffet liure (all you can eat buffet) which caters for hordes of visitors, many from France (including me).There is continuous service from midday, dozens upon dozens of different dishes, starters, puddings, all with a predominantly Catalan cuisine, so lots of fish and seafood. Gourmets can try the various special dishes - snails in a Catalan sauce, stuffed red peppers, razorshells. Trenchermen can fill yer boots. It is a one-price buffet, 16.95 euros Tuesday to Thursday, 19.95 Fridays and 24.95 Saturday, Sunday and public holidays, children have a decent reduction. The wine is pleasant and un-limited. Note that at busy times there is a ninety minute maximum at your table, but I have never seen in enforced.Vegans, vegetarians and gluten intolerance folk can eat well with salads, a few veggie dishes, fruit and baked apples, for example, but the preponderance of dishes have meat, fish or batter. Limited but delicious.Well behaved small dogs are permitted both inside and out.Gracias por su estupenda opinion y les esperamos en otra ocasion

Very lively local restaurant with authentic food. The food was average. However a couple of dishes like the snails and rabbit were good. The service was average, not too attentive.

We collapsed into the air conditioned splendour or the restaurant after a few hours cycling through the vineyards. We were hot and in need of sustenance. That aside, we had a fabulous lunch. I had the anchovies with tomatoes (grown in the village, I was told) and my wife gad a plate of meats. I had the better choice bit both were great. We declined the cheese but couldn't resist the pudding trolley. We shared a chocolate and orange sponge and and Apple strudel type thing but very light. Washed down with a coffee and we were back on our bikes refuelled. Amazing that such a small town can support two such large and relatively smart restaurants.

Nice dinner in the historic interior, with elegant tables. Being in a large group, we had mixed feelings regarding the food. Some of the dishes were outstanding, like a beef tail or fish. The others quite average, like pasta with prawns, or langustine salad. The service and the wine choice were faultless.The place to return.

Some friends brought us to this charming restaurant for lunch. It was extremely busy and quite rightly so. Authentic Catalan food, well served and fantastic value for money. We visited on a Thursday, paella day, which two of our party of four had, a great choice from an extensive menu. The location was perfect too.

We went to buy wine in Capmany and the viticulture advised us to go to Garriguella. Wow - we can't wait to go back already. The midday menu was 12 euros with a fantastic local wine included in the price. I went for the stuffed aubergine which was delicious and my partner went for the empedrat. Luckily I have been learning Catalan for a couple of years so I managed to order in the local lingo - some other tourists came in and two staff helped translate into Spanish and some French- they seemed very helpful...and there are plenty of them too, we counted 5 waiters/waitresses to cover the main resto and all the little adjoining rooms and outside eating area. After that, we both opted for the chicken/rabbit in garlic - again, beautifully cooked and very tasty. For the dessert we opted for the ice-cream followed by a coffee. During all of this we were amazed by the number of people waiting to eat, there were at least 10 at the door when we left. For a small village, the resto certainly has a reputation. The menu at the front door is comprehensive and available in the evening. We will definitely be returning.

We walked past this restaurant and decided to try it because it looked clean and modern and it offered what appeared to be some interesting local dishes. We sat down and I ordered the turbot, and my wife ordered the sole. I thought that it was a little unusual for a restaurant to have two varieties of fish on its menu that are so very similar but I explained it to myself on the basis that the sauces (as described on the menu) appeared to be very different.We were given a small tasting dish which was very nice. Everything was looking good.And then the mains arrived. Honestly, when the server put the dishes down in front of me, I was impressed. A real effort had obviously been made to arrange each dish. But the fish on my plate was a fillet of fish (about 15mm thick) and covered in its skin. It did not look like turbot at all. I didn't complain because the dish looked so good. On my wife's plate was a triangular piece of fish, obviously a cut from around the tail of a fish, again, covered in skin. It looked nothing like sole. It looked like a cut from cod/cabiott or some other scaly fish with that same shape.We commenced eating. My fish was bland, the swirls of dressing on the plate were tasteless and added nothing to the taste. The overriding taste was a strange fishy taste with a lot of salt over the top. There was no butter or lemon or sauce of any type, it wasn't pan-cooked or braised (or at least braised correctly). It was pretty awful. Dry, funny smell.My wife did not eat her fillet. She said it wasn't sole. I looked at it and I agreed. Then I tasted it. It tasted the same as mine, but it was bad, going off. It was old. That was the same taste in my fish, but more strong in the smaller thinner tail section.I recognised it as being old-fish when I tasted her fish. I think that it was cod too. I think that the chef palmed off 2 cuts from one Fish that was going out of date.One of the worse, most dishonest meals I have ever had. I felt sick all afternoon. To be avoided at all costs.Dear Lough222,Thank you very much for taking part of your valuable time to share your recent experience with us.First of all, I would like to extend my apologies for not having met your expectations. At the same time, I would like to review some details following your comments. I do not know if you made any comments directly during your stay regarding the fish however, I would have liked to correct this immediately by adding another dish in its place at no cost to you. We would also like to clarify that in our restaurant Brasic, the protagonist of the kitchen is our wood oven, which forces us to cook some of the fish such as sole and turbot (not cod) along with its skin, to reach its optimum cooking. Possibly the confusion was due to bring a sauce "Pil Pil" that accompanies it, made from the gelatin of cod that is emulsified with garlic and olive oil. We regret that your overall experience with us has not met your expectations and we take note of your comments to improve the level of satisfaction of our customers.Best regards,Brasic Team
