Berbena Menu

Berbena in Gràcia, Barcelona, serves up one of the most playful and imaginative menus you’ll find on Carrer de Minerva, where every bite feels like a conversation between cultures and seasons. The menu cleverly balances shareable starters and more substantial mains, kicking off with fun bites like Oxtail Gyoza with Mushrooms and a Bit of Broth that burst with savory depth and subtle umami. Alongside these, simple yet striking plates such as Bread with Sauces and earthy Beets or Jerusalem Artichokes bring fresh Mediterranean vibes to the table. You’ll also find unexpectedly delightful snacks like Dadinhos De Tapioca i Cheddar, crispy on the outside and rich inside, and the smoky Rillette De Musclus paired with Cecina i Cèleri, which showcase the chef’s knack for texture and taste.

Mains mirror that creative balance, with dishes like tender 牛頬肉赤ワイン煮 (beef cheek in red wine) and succulent Duck Breast, while seafood lovers will enjoy Charcoal Grilled Squid Peas and Lardo and the beautifully executed Market Fish course. The menu also features adventurous choices such as Death Trumpets Beef Tongue and Tagete, proving that Berbena isn’t afraid to push boundaries. To round things out, the creamy Gelat de Llet Amb Aove offers a silky, comforting finish that lingers long after the last sip of wine. Across the board, the menu feels cohesive yet surprising, packed with personality and great for sharing, making every visit feel like a delicious discovery over good conversation and great wine.
