Cullera de Boix

I would like to share our very 1st experience with the restaurant being referred to me by a friend who have celebrated a special family event same as me.

We celebrated our daughter´s baptism reception at Cullera de Boix last Sunday, Feb 7, 2010. . All I can say was my family were all satisfied with the service & the food being served to us. We´re all accomodated very well with the waiters & waitresses of the restaurant. The servings of foods were absolutely right for the prices on their menu. The best part was, the foods were excellent! (really fresh & hot) I´ve had the salmon & asparragus topped with yakitori sauce for my main course.

My friend was right, a definite recommendable restaurant for special family occasions.

Myself and 12 friends visit Barcelona for 2 days over New Years 2008/09. I booked a table several weeks in advance of New Years Eve. However, on arriving at the restaurant I was told that our reservation had been cancelled at 5pm that day. On questioning why this had happened, I was told that the restaurant had tried on 2 occasions to email me asking for further confirmation (I had already confirmed twice), and as I had not replied they had cancelled. However this was not the case, as proved by the restaurant manager who produced 2 emails that were sent to the wrong address. At no point did they attempt to contact me by phone, despite having my number.

I can understand that a genuine mistake had been made, but they way in which we were spoken to by the management staff was disgraceful. They were rude and dismissive, and did not seem to care at all about the mistake they had made. Being NYE we asked if they knew of anywhere they could reccommend, to which they replied that it wasn't their job to find us somewhere else, and please could we leave. I wasn't expecting them to drop everything for us, but as they made the mistake a little help would have been nice.

Anyway, if the food is anything like the service I would not recommend that anyone eat here. To be honest I only chose this place due to the ease of the booking process (what a joke that turned out to be), and after walking around the streets of Barcelona found much nicer and authentic looking places to eat. Unfortunately this being NYE they were all booked out!
