Casa Tejada

Mediterranean Bistrot · Sarrià-Sant Gervasi, Barcelona · €€€

Open since 1964

The Delekta Review

The Tenor Viñas address near Turó Park has fed Barcelona for decades — the original Casa Tejada opened here in the 1970s. Romain Fornell (Caelis) took it over in 2018, closed after a dispute with the building owners, and reopened in September 2024 under the Goût Rouge group with a menu that Observación Gastronómica called an 'ostería con aire de bistrot.' Fettuccine Alfredo prepared the Roman way — butter, Parmesan, pasta water, no cream, finished with white truffle — is the marquee dish. Around it: vitello tonnato Harry's Bar–style with capers, entrecôte tagliata with Café de Paris sauce and impeccable frites, ossobuco gnocchi with tomato and basil, linguini alle vongole, oysters served hot and cold. The menu moves between Italian and French registers without anchoring to either, a deliberate ambiguity that reads as continental rather than confused. Average ticket around €30.

What works

The return of the Tenor Viñas address is a success — a room of moleskin banquettes, film-star black-and-whites, and white tablecloths anchored by a Fettuccine Alfredo without cream that has become the dish Barcelona food people keep referencing

Before you go

The Italian-French register drifts between both traditions without fully committing; the ticket climbs quickly with wine. Go for the Alfredo, the vitello tonnato, and the room — not for a culinary manifesto
