Italian
Down near Sagrada Familia is the Italian restaurant PerBacco. This charming little restaurant has everything you could ask for: from delicious pizzas to beautiful handmade pasta and ice cream. It is slightly more expensive than the other options but the food is truly wonderful and the atmosphere will send you straight to the streets of Rome.
Address: Av. Diagonal, 339
Grill
The Cow Market up near Les Corts is truly the place to go for steaks, sausages and all things that can be grilled. Not one for the vegetarians, this is a meat-lovers paradise offering vast arrays of different cuts of meats and red wines. Definitely a great choice for when you need a protein kick!

Sushi fans should look no further than Yashima. This wonderfully modern restaurant is just off Plaza de Francesc Macia and is very popular indeed. The sushi is prepared right in front of your eyes, and you can get all kinds of Japanese delicacies as well. A great place for an international meal, right in the heart of Barcelona.
Address: Av. de Josep Tarradellas

All the meals there (soup, sushi, dessert) were delicious. The staff could be a bit more quick to respond, but overall, I can’t find much to complain.
i also have nothing but praise for PerBacco!

It’s good for both the locals and the tourists. The staff are friendly, the sitting is cozy and clean, the food is pretty much what you’d expect from a decent italian restaurant. Their seafood pasta is especially popular.
