Mordisco comes to life by Grupo Tragaluz, the owners of such quintessential Barcelona locales as the hotel Omm and Tragaluz restaurant - that's a neighbor on Passatge Concepció. Part fancy gourmet grocer and part all-day eatery with refreshing menu of Catalan specialties, the restaurant is cocooned within a soothing space of creamy plaster and concrete walls arranged in a series of small lounges, grocery bar and communal dining room located under a large glass atrium. A mix of cushy seating areas and rustic tables with resin bistro chairs are rarely enough for the crowds that flock to this urban hotspot known for its spectacular food and even better people watching.
The Food
All-day dining features an appetizer menu of fired artichokes, jamon croquettes and smoked foie gras with fig brioche that are edible perfection. Spinach salad with apple-smoked bacon and tomato tartar with burrata leave little appetite for the amazing creations in the following main courses. Entrees are divided between sections of Healthy & Charcoal with mushroom risotto or open omelet with gruyere to Meats like ox belly with arguala, grilled fillet with béarnaise sauce and hot veal carpaccio with olive herb drizzle.
Last Word
Owners of Barcelona’s Aqua and Tragaluz create gastro-boutique in the heart of Passatge Concepció.
