Àbac, Three Michelin stars restaurant in Sant Gervasi-la Bonanova, Barcelona, Spain.
Àbac is a three-Michelin-star restaurant in Sant Gervasi-la Bonanova, housed in a mansion over a century old with views of its garden. The restaurant serves a tasting menu of about twenty courses that blend Mediterranean and global cooking techniques.
Chef Jordi Cruz transformed this existing restaurant into a three-star Michelin establishment in 2018. This achievement raised the bar for Spanish gastronomy and brought international recognition to the country's fine dining scene.
Local ingredients and Catalan cooking traditions shape each course, while international cooking methods give the dishes their character. The kitchen tells stories of nature, water, and roots through how dishes are composed and presented.
The restaurant is open daily, but reservations are essential since seating is limited. Plan your visit well in advance to secure a spot, as tables fill up quickly.
Guests begin their experience inside the kitchen itself, where chefs present appetizers before moving to their tables. This unusual opening moment creates a direct connection between diners and the people preparing their meal.
