An experience from start to finish that takes you on a
An experience from start to finish that takes you on a culinary journey. This Michelin Star meal was worth every penny. The service was impeccable. Visited for my birthday and will never forget this meal. From the moment you walk in they make you feel important, they take you to a room where they offer you the first item you taste, it was some sort of lettuce kefir, they hand you a hot moist towelette to clean your hands before entering which almost felt like a tea ceremony, then you walk through a long hallway where at the end every restaurant employee is lined up to greet you. It almost felt like a scene from the movie THE MENU. After you are seated the experience begins, there was about 25 items you tasted and a beautiful wine pairing, even my 10 year old fully enjoyed the experience as he's a foodie and the restaurant was nice to let us bring him. I recommend you try this restaurant, thank me later. Please enjoy some of the photos of our experience

I had the great experience of dining at Enigma in October 2023. The service was outstanding, your time with them starts with a tour of the restaurant and you are greeted by the chefs before finding your seat to find. The ambiance is second to none, this restaurant is stunning, looks and feels like a dream. The dining experience consists of about 30 dishes that showcase an expansive creative process and provide a unique bite of ingredients that I haven't had together before. The standouts for me were the basil air waffle and pistachio cream, coconut jelly with Califlower and caviar ponzu sauce, and a coconut Iberian ham. The coconut that tasted just like Iberian ham was outstanding and my favorite bite in Barcelona. This is a must visit destination. Would highly recommend.
Be the first to ReplyOur dining experience at Enigma was incredible, 30
Our dining experience at Enigma was incredible, 30 different bites paired with Spanish wines The experience began the moment we stepped foot inside the restaurant. The decor, the staff, the service, the food, the wine, all incredible. Nitro cloud with mezcal cream, basil air waffle with pistachio cream, earl grey ravioli, prawns 4 ways, melon sashimi and a variety of desserts The ambience of Enigma is note worthy. Dim lighting and soft background music. Make sure to add this to the top of your Barcelona list.
Be the first to ReplyReally a cool place.
It's a little goofy & obviously very expensive, but the service alone makes it worth a visit. Monica and Salvatore were both so incredibly pleasant, and Monica is VERY accommodating of allergens. The food is so interesting, the venue is very unique, definitely visit if you have the budget. Didn't take many photos of the meal, but I promise you'll be surprised.

this place is an "experience" and it feels that way as soon as you enter the door. is it expensive? yes. is it a parade of culinary delight? also yes. the service was nearly flawless they had a dish that was a piece of succulent pork between two pieces of meringue and i SWEAR it tasted like the best mcdonalds chicken nugget ever cooked by ronald himself. blew my mind. the wine pairings were excellent as well and it was a lot of fun though we didn't leave either full OR drunk if you like fancy FANCY and delicious, Enigma delivers big time
Be the first to ReplyI cannot fathom how anyone could rate this restaurant 1
I cannot fathom how anyone could rate this restaurant 1 star and claim it "uninventive"... To be completely honest we almost cancelled our reservation last minute because of the reviews... I URGE you, do not do that!!! We recently visited Enigma during a little two week food tour of Europe visiting four different "World's Best" & Michelin starred restaurants (that sounds obnoxious, I know), countless, amazing hole-in-the-wall mom and pop restaurants, street food stalls, and everything in between, and Enigma was at the top of our list. The ambiance was otherworldly and the service was some of the best we've ever had. Monica was the perfect mix of professional and easy going and made our experience unforgettable. The food wasn't only inventive it was downright delicious. At some tasting menu restaurants I'll find myself having to choke down at least a few plates because the flavors aren't completely pleasing to me but I'm trying to be respectful and finish all of my food - but I never once felt that at Enigma. I happily ate up every bite. Can't wait to visit again when we return to Barcelona!
Be the first to ReplyThis place is incredible.
My wife and I wife recently traveled through Italy/Spain, and this was our favorite dinner throughout the whole trip.We started with a tour of the restaurant along with a greeting from the entire kitchen staff (yes, the whole staff paused to greet each guest) before seating.Cocktails to start were delicious and inventive. We were initially wanting to do the a-la-carte menu but after our server explained we can let her know of any dishes we may want to avoid, we just went with the tasting menu. This was the best decision we could have made. The rest of the evening was full of surprising sights, smells, tastes and textures and our server Monica did such a great job guiding us through this journey. Highlights included: Vinegar glazed cherries. Melon sashimi. Tomatillo burrata salad. Smooth clam. Spaghetti with tomato consumé. Roasted chicken canapé.We will definitely come back the next time we are in Barcelona.
Be the first to ReplyEnigma Concept was a delicious experience.
We arrived a bit earlier than our 10:00 reservation, and our table was ready. After a quick tour of the restaurant, we were seated and started with some fabulous cocktails.Ordering ala carte is nice, you must order two of each item, (our waiter worked with us on some to make life easy) The sommelier was fantastic, she was super knowledgeable, but not pretentious, she helped us with Cava, and local wines to go with our dishes.

If I could describe this experience in one word it would be PRETENTIOUS. Also, I would describe this as mediocre microwave food. We tried almost everything in the evening menu and almost all cocktails and did not care for ANYTHING!! I'm only giving 2 stars because the restaurant is very beautiful , presentation of food is ok and the service was decent. We had to tell our server we're going to leave early and not to submit the last item to the chef to prepare as we did not have any hope that it would be any good considering how sad the other stuff was . I cannot believe this is supposed to be Michelin star food . They served us lunch meat !!!! Come on . Just no. The only thing I truly enjoyed as the oysters. I hope they start doing a different concept as this one is AWFUL. I was truly prepared to spend $600 on a wonderful experience, but after a couple hundred spent on things that dint taste good , it was enough for me to decide if would never come back unless they would do things like they used to . This concept is not appetizing

Arrived at 1:30 and they had no one there to greet or even open the door. We tried using the pad to call for help. We stood outside for 5 minutes before letting ourselves in. Told the waitress I can't have vegetables. She reassured only dish would have it was fried eggplant. Every dish has vegetables infused. I couldn't even separate or eat around the veggies. My throat started to itch and had to ask for the bill before taking Benadryl. Explained this to the manager and he said it was a miscommunication. I don't how we see how that is possible. Unacceptable for a restaurant that was once Michelin rated not have someone to greet the guess much less end up leaving me sick.

Wow. Just wow. With a name like Enigma, there is a lot of mystique and intrigue left for the mind to interpret how the evening is going to play out. I was not at all prepared for a dining experience like this. The "musical chairs" style of dining moving from room to room is a brilliant idea and kept things fresh which adds to the "enigma". I was blown away with almost every dish. The combination of everything from the textures, flavors, smells, appearance, interaction with the chefs, even temperature of the room, made for one hell of a dinner. And the service? Spot on. Enigma hands down is the best restaurant, Michelin Starred or otherwise, I've had the pleasure of dining at. I highly recommend.
Be the first to ReplyThis was a complete disappointment of a meal and very
This was a complete disappointment of a meal and very surprising that it earned a Michelin star. They earned two stars because the waitstaff was great. The wine pairings (caution: 7 full glasses of wine) were also delicious. The food was the worst we had on our entire trip. Shame for such an expensive meal. 40 courses, Japanese inspired, weird ingredients, the list goes on. My friends described it as a kid creating a menu with the strangest ingredients they could think of and charging an enormous amount for it. Brains, lettuce soup, etc. Honestly, the best food item was the broth they started out the meal with. The whole concept felt as though they were trying to hard. I left hungry, a bit grossed out, and completely upset I wasted my hard earned money. Save your €€€€'s and go eat some delicious paella elsewhere. This place is not worth it.
Be the first to ReplyDO NOT GO!! I wish I could give 0 stars! Most
DO NOT GO!! I wish I could give 0 stars! Most disappointing experience I have ever had! Extremely Japanese inspired menu, flat flavors, under seasoned, redundancy in many course. SO BORING!!On top of a very underwhelming and expensive meal, my dinner guest got very sick that evening from the meal. They told me that I would need a doctors report regarding a foodborne illness and offered nothing. On vacation someone is supposed to go to the ER to be seen by a doctor apparently for the restaurant to acknowledge an issue!! Insane I'm a professional Chef, have worked and eaten all over the world and have never been treated like this. Their Website and previous reviews build Enigma up to be this cerebral and artistic experience with different rooms and secret passwords to enter, so underwhelming and lack luster! It felt like a restaurant from the 80's and food to match. Maybe back to the drawing board on this one..,
Be the first to ReplyEXCELLENT MANAGEMENT.
We made the stupid mistake of booking the wrong date for our reservation and unfortunately could not go to Enigma at all. We were extremely upset and embarrassed by this, but the management team at Enigma really helped us through it. They were surprisingly and shockingly accommodating and understanding of our accidental no-show, and for that we will be forever grateful and appreciative. Even though it was our fault, their grace in how they dealt with this unfortunate situation really speaks volumes of their level of service and their treatment of patrons. Thank you for being understanding, Enigma. We are so sorry and definitely hope to actually dine at your lovely restaurant one day!- Bramley Birrer & Kat V.
Be the first to ReplyIt's definitely more an experience than a meal.
The tasting rooms/stations were a fun experience. We got 7:30 reservation which is the earliest one and we felt like the only customer in many of the rooms which was definitely a plus.They were really experimenting with flavors and textures. I was extremely pleasantly surprised by a lot of the dishes. There was a few that I didn't like, but that was a small price I was willing to pay.Overall, I highly recommend this to anyone who loves to experience new foods.
Be the first to ReplyEverything about the Enigma experience from the start to
Everything about the Enigma experience from the start to finish was so cool and mysterious. From entering the restaurant, we had to type in a password on the door. As we walked inside, if you haven't already googled the pictures of this place, the decor was very interesting, with gray walls and ceiling decorated with tulle. The staff uniform, furniture, tableware and silverware all looked so futuristic. Around us, trance house music is playing. You are first presented with a welcome drink in the first room, as you await to be seated. Our hostess explains to us that throughout the dinner service, we will be moving around many rooms, as part of the dining experience. Each room is different and in it, different themes of foods will be served. As we were ushered into the next room, I waited to be presented with the tasting menu (so we can decide on our bottle of wine to pair it with). It never came. Unlike other restaurants, when you come to Engima, it is already assumed that you will be doing the tasting menu. To play it safe, we opted for a more versatile wine, a pinot noir, since we have a strong preference for red wines and aren't sure what foods we will be served this evening. Be prepared to eat ~30 different courses! When we walked passed the kitchen, which is right out in the open, the chefs were so welcoming and everybody greeted us as we walked by. As we moved from room to room, eating each course, you never know what was coming. Each course tasted delicious, but everybody who is eating at Enigma already knows, Albert Adria is culinary royalty, and is brother to the legendary Ferran Adria. Together, they ran the world famous restaurant El Bulli (closed in 2011). To add to the fun, our server engaged us in a fun game throughout dinner of guessing what each course was, and what it was made of. At first I was hoping for a mildly quiet romantic evening with my better half, but this was really fun. After we ate our dessert, we were guided into the Speakeasy portion of the restaurant (What? there's more?!), where we were made handcrafted cocktails and more sweet treats were showered upon us. The staff were extremely nice, and took very good care of us. Albert Adria surely did not disappoint. Instead of just serving you a delicious world class meal, in Enigma, he draws on playfulness and evokes curiosity of his diners, and takes them on a fun inducing, gastronomic adventure.
Be the first to ReplyEnigma is difficult to grade in comparison to other
Enigma is difficult to grade in comparison to other restaurants. The experience is unique, obviously, as that is principal to their goal. Dinner is significantly more of an experience than it is a meal. It's hard to say anything negative about the restaurant. The food was unique, and not all of it I loved, but that's the point. It was a lot of fun to see and taste new things, have familiar things presented in new ways, and seeing such dedication and focus on the quality of the ingredient and cookery. The restaurant is immaculately clean. Service team is trained to the highest level of detail. The culinary staff working at the stations were immensely knowledgeable. If you don't love food this restaurant isn't for you. If you love food, an experience like this is a must.
Be the first to ReplyThis should be much higher on the World Top 50 list, and
This should be much higher on the World Top 50 list, and definitely more deserving than one Michelin star. Extremely innovative cuisine and immersive dining experience, with friendly and non-pretentious service. Definitely with a visit if you're in BCN.
Be the first to ReplyGo to Tickets instead!! Seriously, I'd imagine most
Go to Tickets instead!! Seriously, I'd imagine most people come here only after they failed to secure a reservation at Tickets. I suppose the concept is cool, having to move from station to station, but it just didn't enhance the dining experience much at all. The food, while thoughtful and creative, wasn't necessarily complex or tasty. There were a few strong dishes, but most were rather ho hum. Desserts were abrupt and not memorable, which was surprising. Service was great, language barrier aside, on par with 3-star restaurants, and I liked being able to interact with the chefs as well. In the end, though, the food simply fell short.Disfrutar is a much better meal for sure. And, instead of coming here, do your homework on how to get a table at Tickets!!
Be the first to ReplyI have been a fan of Ferran and Albert Adria for a long
I have been a fan of Ferran and Albert Adria for a long time and was crushed when El Bulli closed. I was beyond thrilled when Albert Adria imagined and created a new and unique restaurant group. Our initial goal was to dine at Tickets. I sat online at 6 pm (our time) every day for a week trying for a reservation and ultimately failing. Luckily, we scored a reservation at Enigma restaurant. Over the next couple of months, I read reviews and they were either glowing or showed dislikes. My thought process for dining at Enigma was probably different from most people. I have dined at expensive restaurants and have been beyond disappointed. I love to cook and bake all the time and I'm pretty good at it. When it came to Enigma I was more interested in the skills and Avante Garde approach to food that is rare and special. To me, Enigma is a multi-sensory experience more so than just delicious food. After reserving your spot you receive a unique code and password to enter the restaurant.On the day of our reservation, we entered our code and password. Walking down the hall we were greeted by the staff, our coats were taken, and we were offered water. To me walking into Enigma felt like stepping into a cave with cool colors, ice, and texture.Our menu consisted of items we were familiar with, items we weren't familiar with and items I thought I would never try. The thoughtfulness, techniques, and flow of our meal were incredible. I also appreciated how the servers and chefs explained each dish and some of their process (some information was given after you ate the dish). There were a few dishes containing dairy and I ended up taking a few Lactaid pills throughout the evening. RyonkanWhen the time came to start our experience we were welcomed with a warm drink.La CavaIn La Cava, we were welcomed by staff and a sommelier to a small table for two. To accompany our meal we ordered a bottle of Kimoto Junmai Ginjo Sake. La BarraIn La Bara, our seats were right next to the chef. La PlanxaThe two chefs in this area of the restaurant were particularly friendly, inviting, and informative. This portion of the meal was actually in the middle of the "Dinner" aspect of our evening. DinnerOn the way to our table, we were welcomed to the restaurant by the Executive Chef. A warm and welcoming touch. We were then shown to a lovely table for two. The Dessert aspect of the meal was also served at the Dinner table. 41 degreesAs you walk through the kitchen the staff thank you for coming, then take you through a "storage room" to 41 degrees. We had two seats at the bar which we enjoyed. One particular bite was kind of fun to experience and I will remember it even though I didn't catch a picture.I could not begin to pick out a favorite dish. The combination of textures, depth of flavors, and unique ingredients were truly special. A few standouts for me were the green mandarin Kakigori (bright and fragrant), Barnacle and codium (nice texture and slight sea taste), Pea "calcots" (fresh and true pea taste), the cured Lobster (I'm a New Englander and this was the best bite of lobster I've ever had), and the Autumn salad (who knew I would enjoy Sea Anemone).With close to 40 creations one would think we'd end up being completely full. I was happily surprised that we were content and not uncomfortable. If you are looking for wonderful service, delicious food, unique ingredients, and a new approach to dining Enigma is a must visit restaurant!
