Trü
Creative Catalan Casual · Eixample, Barcelona · €€€
Open since 2026
Artur Martínez's tavern-format Catalan project on Carrer de Còrsega 232, opened 17 February 2026 while his Aürt restaurant relocates. Primarily dinner with two staggered seatings (Saturday lunch added since opening), average around €60; Mar Ibáñez handles pastry; the menu pulls hard on Catalan tradition through Martínez's km-0 register.
The Delekta Review
Chef Artur Martínez opened Trü on 17 February 2026 in the former Palo Verde space on Carrer de Còrsega 232, with the Aürt team running the kitchen during Aürt's own relocation transition (Aürt is expected to reopen mid-2026) Pastry by Mar Ibáñez; the format is positioned as the more informal, less academic counterpoint to Martínez's fine-dining work
Primarily dinner Tue–Fri and Sat night with two staggered seatings, plus Saturday lunch (added since opening); closed Sunday — the menu changes seasonally and reflects what the producers sent that week Pricing in the €€€ tier — average bill around €60 per person before drinks; positioned as the casual extension of Martínez's project rather than a destination tasting menu
Thyme consommé — opening course, market-led Skewers — meatball and tongue versions, the kitchen's casual centrepiece Pork rind waffles — a kitchen-as-theatre touch on a tavern register Green xatonada with espigall sprouts and anchovies Suckling veal with Catalan chicory Pa amb tomàquet with Olvido olive oil; warm cream-filled pastry dessert from Mar Ibáñez
Carrer de Còrsega 232, in the Eixample, in the space that used to host Palo Verde — the room reads as a tavern rather than a fine-dining annexe
