The name contains a Danish zero and a Greek suffix, which tells you something about how seriously this Michelin-starred seafood restaurant takes its own concept. The kitchen cures, smokes, and matures fish and shellfish into what they call "charcuterie of the sea," then serves it in dishes built from Spanish ingredients with Italian and Asian detours. Tasting menus are named after ocean depths, because of course they are.

The chandeliers in the Palace hotel have been watching over formal dinners since before your grandparents were born, and Amar leans into every inch of that history. Rafa Zafra, who made his name at El Bulli before becoming Barcelona's seafood obsessive at Estimar, shifts registers here into full-dress fine dining: ornate plating, caviar runs deep on the menu, and a section of dishes pays explicit tribute to the old Ritz kitchen.

The restaurant takes its name from the local trout, and the sourcing policy is just as literal: no ingredient crosses the pass unless it comes from the region, coffee and chocolate included. This one-Michelin-star tasting menu spot in Céret is the chef's homecoming project, and the room was finished by local ironworkers and ceramicists. The cooking is modern and seafood-forward, with amuse-bouches that suggest someone in the kitchen is having a good time.

A wave-like mirrored ceiling does most of the decorating at this self-described "irreverent seafood tavern" in Ciutat Vella, where the day's catch sits on ice at an open bar and a robata grill does the heavy lifting. The menu runs from cured horse mackerel to braised tuna cheek, and the oyster-infused dry martini has developed its own small reputation. A handful of tables keeps it intimate, which is a polite way of saying book ahead.

The day's catch arrives on heaps of bar ice before you've even sat down, which tells you everything about where this marisqueria's priorities lie. Just off Plaça d'Espanya, El Camarote de Tomás is a traditional Catalan seafood restaurant, intimate and unfussy, where wild-caught fish comes roasted whole and the esqueixada de bacallà alone is reason enough to show up. An old-school institution with no apparent interest in modernizing, and no reason to start.

The building was a salting factory once, and the vaulted ceilings still carry that industrial scale, which makes the live seafood tanks and the modern dining room feel like a genuinely odd combination that somehow works. This is a seafood restaurant near the port in Palamós, leaning hard into Costa Brava fish and Mediterranean flavors. There's a terrace out front and a selected Michelin Guide listing to go with it.
