Ultramarinos Marín
Seafood & Charcuterie Grill · Sant Antoni, Barcelona · €€€
Awards: Michelin Selection · 50Best Discovery
Lively spot focusing on fresh seasonal seafood and house-made charcuterie. Bustling bar with views of the grill, quieter asador section in back. World of Mouth top-30.
The Delekta Review
Ultramarinos Marín in Sant Antoni is Borja García's asador — the former Dos Pebrots chef who chose fire over finesse. The name references the old-school Spanish general stores, and the setting honours that aesthetic: a neighbourhood grocer reimagined as a serious brasa restaurant on Carrer de Manso, Michelin selection and 50Best Discovery listing both earned without any apparent ambition for either. Focus is charcoal-grilled meats and fish — cooking that lives or dies on ingredient quality and the skill of managing flame. García is obsessive about sourcing, and the room is one of the places in Barcelona that gets actively described as loved by old neighbourhood locals and by other chefs — a clientele that doesn't tolerate cut corners. The simplicity is deceptive: fire-cooked food this good takes more discipline than most elaborately plated tasting menus. Prices reflect the premium sourcing and earn it. The clearest expression in Sant Antoni of what happens when a fine-dining chef strips the plate down to flame and product.
