👍 Kinda hidden place near Mataró's center. Good and tasty food, very clean and the personnel is polite and kind. The portions are small - we were two men and both of us were slightly hungry even though we ate 2 course meal with a dessert.

    Finally a place where you can eat quality oysters in Mataró. We were eating on a Saturday at noon, it is a small but very cozy and quiet restaurant. We were lucky enough to try several dishes on the menu and which one was better. The attention was impeccable, they served quickly and kindly. It is not a restaurant to be able to go to every day if your pocket does not allow it, but it is 100% recommended for special occasions.

    Very happy with the experience and the excellent treatment received, the waiter was very attentive at all times. The food excellent. We ate some bravas that we loved, then a spectacular salmon tartare and a delicious cannelloni with parmesan and truffle! It is important to leave room for the desserts (all homemade). We decided on the chocolate coulant which was amazing! One of the best we've tried! We will repeat for sure!

    nice place in the city center with interesting vegetarian options. the service and food are both unparalleled. it is clear that there is passion, love, pursuit of excellence. the menu changes constantly but always at the highest levels. the price/quality ratio is right. the only thing that perhaps leaves me a little indifferent is the location: a little indefinable, perhaps not up to the level of the menu. every time I come to Mataró for work I always come for dinner here and I will always return

    Looking for a nicer restaurant I decided to give El Gourmand a try solely based on the reviews but what a find it is! It is located in an alley off the main street in Mataró and easy to find. Doesn't open until 2030 in the evening, but hey, we are in Spain! The premises are very clean, of course clean as in non-dirty but also a very clean design. To start things we had 2 glasses of cava to go with the calamares andaluza and pan. The most surprising part was the many tastes from the food. There was fish and lemon (as calamares should taste) but some other tastes from the sauce giving it a slight but perfect Asian taste. For mains we had filled raviolis and pig pluma, both were excellent and I would without a doubt have them both again. Just as for the starters there are many tastes which all add up to the perfect mix. The red wine by the glass turned out to ge very good as well. And finally, Crema Catalana. But not the traditional way. Of course, there is a large element of traditional Creama Catalana but also crumbles and sorbet which yet again added up to a superb taste final. It wasn't on the menu but the waiter found some excellent Moscatel to go with the dessert. Oh yes, the waiter was just so attendative and friendly. All this for 69 euros, I can not think you can get a better upper scale meal in Mataró for this price, go there and try for yourself.

👍 I can't believe some of the negative comments. People should know what kind of place they are going to eat in before deciding to do so. This is what it is: a pasta all you can eat buffet. And despite being so, the quality is quite good in most of the food.
