Great experience in Barcelona. I try their tasting menu, very good choice.. They are serving a selection of their most popular tapas and it was great. Around 12 tapas per person. The atmosphere is pretty unique, open kitchen everywhere. You can see the pastry, the kitchen, the rotisserie... A place worth a try. Book a few months in advance if... More

Its an evening of talented people making magic with food combining flavors that is not in the imagination of the ordinary person. From the time you enter till the time you leave the enthusiastic staff does everything possible to make you have a magical evening. Each table is different you may order the tasting menu and the table next to... More

One of my best experiances ever, because I never saw anything as delicios as this. Inheritage from elBulli. Buy the video for the techniques. Friendly service. Should have liked to visit 41 degrees, though.

We dined at several Michelin 2 and 3-star restaurants in Spain, and we enjoyed Tickets more than any of them. We did not order from the menu, we just asked the waiter to just bring us a selection of their best dishes. We had 23 courses (most of which were only one or two bites) and there wasn't one we...

This is a molecular kitchen restaurant. You have to book well in advance, like two months in advance, and the taste experience is unforgettable! We booked the "tapas menu" and travelled through the world of tastes and textures.

We went to ticket and the door-lady told us to book in Internet without explaining that was almost impossible to book for the next day. So we connected in Internet we tried to book without success ( we could not figure out how to book) and we sent an email asking for support and booking. No answer. Disappointed and definitely...

Food was very creative & interesting. Everything was delicious! Surprisingly our server/waiter was very friendly & accommodating, if the course was too adventurous for my 8 yr old she would bring him something else. The exploding olives are the bomb! Will definitely eat there again!

Loved the fun and casual environment about this place. It was definitely well worth the wait. The waiters were extremely accommodating and helpful for our group of 8. Favourites - everything, especially the olives. Tip: go next door to the bar, where the cocktails are just as experimental!

Lived up to the high expectations. The basic concept is traditional tapas prepared and presented as you never would imagine and with tastes to the maximum. Iberian ham, Spanish cheeses, olives, croquetas, tomatoes, anchoas, shellfish, Iberian pork etc etc plus some surprises from out of this world. Given what you get, very reasonable prices.

We'd had over two weeks of wonderful eating in Catalunya and were looking forward to the "Tickets" experience after reading so much about it on Chowhound and elsewhere. We asked our server, as so many do, to select a sampling of their offerings and were largely pleased. The famous "olives" and oyster specialities did not disappoint, nor did the "nordic... More
