Tuna Tartare on Black Sesame Crisp

Blai 9

Poble Sec·$

€2.50

Fresh Bluefin tuna seasoned with soy and ginger on a technical sesame cracker.

Tip: The sesame crisp provides a great local crunch. It's the most refined pintxo on the menu. Order it immediately as they often sell out early in the night.

Fatty Bluefin Tuna (Otoro) Nigiri

EM Japanese

El Born·$$$

€9.50

The most prized cut of the tuna, meltingly soft with fresh-grated wasabi.

Tip: It literally melts on the tongue. If you're ordering a la carte, make sure you save this for last among the nigiri as it's the richest. The quality of the wasabi here is excellent.

The CDLC Signature Sushi Platter

CDLC Barcelona

Barceloneta·$$$$

€48.50

A luxury selection of our best rolls, nigiri, and fresh sashimi.

Tip: An absolute mandatory order for the table. The quality of the fish is remarkably high for a 'beach club' setting. The spicy salmon rolls are the highlight.

#497% recommend

Grilled Bluefin Tuna with Quinoa

Flax & Kale

Raval·$$

€22.00

Sustainable tuna from L'Ametlla de Mar served with a superfood grain salad.

Tip: The tuna quality is excellent. It's one of the few places in Raval where you can find properly sourced wild fish in a casual setting. The quinoa salad is very well-seasoned.

Homemade Ensaladilla Rusa (Russian Salad)

Vermuteria Lou

Gràcia·$

€6.50

Arguably the best version of this classic tapa in Gràcia.

Tip: The texture is very different from the factory-made versions. Use the breadsticks (picos) they provide to scoop it up.

#695% recommend

Glug Vitello Tonnato

Glug

Eixample/Sant Antoni·$$

€14.00

Thinly sliced veal with a concentrated tuna and caper sauce.

Tip: The sauce is much more elegant and less 'mayonnaise-like' than most versions. Perfect for sharing as a starter.

#794% recommend

Mediterranean Tuna Salad Bocadillo

Bo de B

Gothic Quarter·$

€7.00

A classic Spanish 'Bocata de Atún' refined with fresh market vegetables.

Tip: The tuna is never dry here. It's a great choice if you're heading to the beach nearby. Ask for extra spicy sauce on the side.

#894% recommend

Mediterranean Bluefin Tuna Carpaccio

Eldelmar

Port Olímpic·$$$

€22.00

Thinly sliced premium tuna from the L'Ametlla de Mar area with citrus pearls.

Tip: The tuna quality is excellent. It almost tastes like wagyu because of the fat content. The citrus pearls are a great technical touch that freshens up the palate.

#994% recommend

Tuna Tartare with Avocado and Lime

Bornès

El Born·$$

€18.50

Fresh Bluefin tuna from the market with a bright, acidic finish.

Black Anguilla and Shrimp Tuna Tataki

Micu Maku

Eixample·$

€16.50

A creative, modern-Asian influenced dish featuring premium bluefin tuna.

#1194% recommend

Mediterranean Bluefin Tuna Tartare

Boca Grande

Eixample·$$$$

€28.50

Hand-cut tuna belly with avocado and extra caviar.

Gourmet Tuna Melt

Chivuo's

Gràcia·$

€9.50

Premium canned tuna with melted cheddar and jalapeños.

Tip: A very comforting dish. The jalapeños aren't too hot but they give a great 'zing'. Perfect for a rainy day lunch.

#1391% recommend

Catalan Salad with Xató Sauce

Tapeo Born

El Born·$$

€11.50

Fresh seasonal greens with a traditional nut and pepper dressing.

Tip: The sauce is very thick and savory, almost like a pesto but with more earthy, smoky notes.

Italian-style Bruschetta with Vermouth-marinated Tuna

Las Vermudas

Gràcia·$

€9.50

Crispy bread topped with high-quality tuna and herbs.
