Carlota Akaneya, Japanese restaurant in Ciutat Vella, Spain.
Carlota Akaneya is a Japanese grilling restaurant in Barcelona where each table has an individual charcoal grill for guests to prepare premium meats, fish, and vegetables according to their tastes. The setup allows every visitor to cook exactly what they prefer.
The restaurant opened in 2011 as Europe's first sumibiyaki establishment and later gained recognition for serving premium beef from Ito Ranch. These two milestones made it a pioneer of authentic Japanese grilling culture outside Japan.
The restaurant follows the concept of a Kyoto establishment called Akaneya Junshinken and brings together traditional Japanese grilling methods with Spanish hospitality. Visitors experience a blend of both cultures reflected in how the space is used daily.
The restaurant is situated near Liceu and Catalunya metro stations, making it easy to reach. Visitors should know that parking is available in the nearby Angels garages.
Since 2020, Carlota Akaneya holds the certification as Barcelona's first restaurant to serve authentic Kobe Beef. This recognition shows the restaurant meets the strictest standards for meat quality.
