Description

The room exudes a relaxed vibe with its faux-industrial décor, semi-open kitchen and full-length windows. The owner named it Pi as a circle with no beginning or end is a good metaphor for the boundless possibilities in cooking. The head chef has worked in some prestigious kitchens in Taiwan, and his 6-course prix-fixe menu offers excellent value, featuring novel creations in European traditions, and one speciality from the charcoal grill.

Review summary

PI is a contemporary European restaurant in Barcelona's Gothic Quarter. Food quality receives mixed reviews; while many praise authentic tapas like anchovies, croquettes, and tortilla, others report recent declines in taste, citing greasy or dry dishes. Service is generally described as friendly and professional, though some note pacing issues. The atmosphere offers a local, family-style vibe with a pleasant terrace, despite a somewhat dated exterior. Value is debated, with some finding it reasonable and others considering prices high relative to portion sizes and consistency.
