Premium Grilled Meats · Eixample, Barcelona · €€€
Grupo 9Reinas's ambitious asador with Barcelona's longest custom parrilla (5.5 meters), rotating spits, and serious meat from chef Ramón Panés in the former Chez Coco space.
The Delekta Review
Grupo 9Reinas has turned the former Chez Coco space over to fire. The centerpiece is impossible to miss — a custom 5.5-meter charcoal and wood-fired grill, the longest in Barcelona, flanked by rotating spits that deliver meat directly to the table. Chef Ramón Panés prioritizes product over preparation: Galician beef aged nearly 100 days arrives with extremely concentrated flavor; Argentine veal ribs get carved shawarma-style into tacos; sardine espetos come straight from grill to plate. This is no carnivore one-trick — grilled mushrooms with sobrasada, tuna ventresca with piparra sofrito, and a nigiri bar add breadth. The 150-seat space includes an interior patio and cocktails that shift toward nightlife on weekends. Around €50 average.
