Restaurante Mordisco
About
Nestled on Passatge de la Concepció in the heart of Barcelona, Restaurante Mordisco offers a vibrant Mediterranean dining experience that blends culinary creativity with a warm, home‑like ambiance. The restaurant’s open‑air courtyard transforms into a lush, green oasis where guests can savor tapas, fresh seafood, and inventive dishes that highlight the region’s seasonal bounty. Chef Rosa Esteva—who celebrated the brand’s 35 years in 2021—continues to champion local ingredients and healthy, satisfying plates suitable for vegans, vegetarians, and gluten‑free diners alike. With a history that stretches back to 1986, Mordisco has become a beloved gathering spot for locals and tourists. Its friendly staff, complemented by welcome high chairs, make it an ideal destination for families, while wine lovers delight in the curated selection of Spanish and regional wines. Patrons often praise the relaxed, yet lively atmosphere that encourages conversation and the feeling of belonging. Mordisco remains open daily from 12:30 pm to midnight, with the kitchen closing an hour earlier at 11 pm. Reservations are highly recommended for busy evenings or group events of eight or more people, but walk‑in lunch and dinner service are always available. The establishment’s open garden and playful décor offer a memorable backdrop for both intimate meals and larger celebrations.
