Restaurante Solomillo
The 'meat by weight' concept — pick the breed, weight, doneness, and cooking method
A chic, quietly buzzy brasserie—romantic without trying—made for date nights or a long dinner with friends in Eixample. Service is polished and personal, with a strong wine list and a menu that balances Mediterranean leanings and easy vegetarian choices. Go after sunset when the room glows; prime tables go fast, so a reservation is smart on weekends.
In La Dreta de l'Eixample, Barcelona. Easy to fold into a morning or a longer afternoon; there's usually something else worth a stop within a few minutes' walk.
Solomillo sits at Carrer de Mallorca 251 in la Dreta de l'Eixample, holding a 4.3/5 Tripadvisor average across 700+ reviews. The defining concept is 'meat by weight': diners customize breed, grammage, doneness, cooking method, sauce, and garnish, with signatures including steak tartare, Beef Wellington, chateaubriand, and roast beef. Reviewers consistently praise attentive, knowledgeable service and an upscale-yet-comfortable minimalist room; the venue is positioned as a splurge. Hours are lunch 1–3:30 PM and dinner 8–11 PM, closed Mondays, with reservations via phone or email. The official site emphasizes meat above all and does not advertise vegetarian options, though the curator's notes explicitly call out easy vegetarian choices — trusted as the higher signal.
