Outstanding food, so-so service - Edit
I went here for a nice dinner with my husband while in Barcelona. We thoroughly enjoyed the food, trying three or four of the tapas and drinks. The service was so-so with not terribly friendly staff. We may have been there on an off night, though. I would still go back, especially for the roasted cauliflower and the eggplant dish! Those were both incredible.

Baked cauliflower changed my life 😆 - Edit
This spot is deserving of all the great reviews! You have to get the baked cauliflower, it is worth the hype. From presentation (arrives with a steak knife stabbed through the top) to taste, we loved everything about it! We also ordered the vegan curry, and red cabbage. All delicious. Great spot for a date night or classy dinner.

So much food - Edit
We ordered the taster menu as we couldn't decide what to get. At €35 each it was pricey but there were so many dishes it was worth it. The food was incredibly tasty and all freshly made. Highly recommend.

Laid-back high-end, if that makes sense - Edit
A nice and very accommodating place with its own spin on tapas, ranging from cabbage to curry. A handy all-inclusive tapas menu with 7 mains, dessert, water and 2 glasses of wine.

Really lovely restaurant with amazing food - Edit
Absolutely loved sesamo. The restaurant itself is lovely, and the food is absolutely amazing. I got the roast cauliflower from the specials and it was as one of the best vegan meals I’ve had in a restaurant. I also got the best pardon peppers I’ve ever had. Also, service was really quick and the staff were lovely
Read morePros: Really quick service , Lovely restaurant , Very high quality food
Cons: Not all vegan (and a lack of vegan desserts)

Taster Menu - Edit
We tried out the 7 course taster menu, (35€pp inc a glass of wine each) the portions were pretty small to be shared between two people but the flavours were good. The vibe is nice inside and the staff are friendly! The normal menu seems to have good vegan options so will deffo go back to try out more of the menu another time!

Total disappointment - Edit
Wanted to try this place because it was close to our hotel. First of all, it was SO noisy in the back of the restaurant that you couldn't hear yourself across the table. There weren't many vegan options available, so we asked for the mushroom tart with no cheese - it was literally tart pastry and mushrooms with no coherence and no taste. We also ordered the cauliflower steak. There wasn't much taste to it. Don't think we'd go back.

Not to be missed! - Edit
This restaurant has an amazing vibe - exactly what we wanted on our visit to Barcelona. The mushroom croquets (although sadly not vegan) are the best I’ve ever had - the cauliflower is also a must! The peach sangria is amazing, and the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. Definitely worth a visit!

Amazing chef - Edit
This is the kind of gourmet food that makes you ask how in the world the chef made each dish. Every bite was delicious and creative, bringing out out new flavors from old friends. Especially in vege places it is often hard to find things cooked to perfection, and seasoned with such care. The selection was somewhat limited, and the venue is funky/modest, but the food was terrific.

Good food but not enough - Edit
The food was amazing but we left hungry. 7 courses should be enough but we went to eat falafel pita's at a place nearby to fill our hunger. And we really arent big eaters. Service is good

Delicious, inventive food 😋 - Edit
The food was really different to food I'd had before. We had the seven course vegetarian tapas and it was all really tasty. Started with strawberry gazpaccio, then mushroom croquettes, padron peppers, tomato with bread, a cheesy potato dish, miso aubergine, leek with really tasty sauce and a chickpea curry, finished with a cold toffee dessert. Would definitely go back again!

Great food, appalling service . - Edit
We arrived after phoning and leaving a message to reserve, they never got it. Fortunately we were early and they found a table, advising us we had 1 1/2 hours, plenty of time, we thought.
Read moreWe sat, ordered within 15 minutes. 50 minutes later I had one dish - we didn’t share as my husband is hyper allergic to nuts - however they never asked if we were sharing. 20 mins later and after complaining the second dish arrived, explaining again we weren’t sharing it took a further 10 minutes for a tart I could have whipped up at home for a fraction of the price they were charging.
We paid before they even managed to get the last dish to us ..
After reading reviews I could wait to try this place. The food was good, when it arrived, but apart from that ….
Pros: Good food
Cons: Appalling communication , Slow , Pricey

Can’t wait to go back! - Edit
Absolutely delicious food! We went for the veggie 7 course tasting menu, and absolutely loved everything. Two glasses of great wine, and a delicious flan for dessert was also included. They also do lots of vegan options, including a full vegan tasting menu as well. Best meal we have had all week visiting Barcelona!

Mal olor en el restaurante - Edit
Aunque esté lleno de velas perfumadas para cubrir el mal olor que hace el edificio, después de un rato que estás dentro se huele, y se queda en el pelo y en la ropa.
Read moreLo que comí estaba bastante rico, aunque caro por las mini raciones.
Otro punto negativo: una sola opción vegana de postre.
Y si te sientan en la mesa de la entrada, bajo el altavoz, para hablar tienes que gritar porqué la música la ponen muy alta. Y aunque pidas bajarla, no lo hacen.
Pros: Comida bastante rica, Ambiente acogedor
Cons: Mal olor, Música demasiado alta, Caro por las ración pequeñas

Creative dishes - Edit
Really cozy atmosphere and lovely staff. And the dishes (8-14€) were really creative and delicious! It's the ones that you start guessing the ingredients and flavors and want to recreate it at home immediately. We didn't have it, but the vegan tapas menu is 30€ for 7 tapas, dessert and a drink.
Read morePros: Atmosphere , Staff , Amazing dishes
Cons: If you don't like a darker bar atmosphere, It's not for you
