A charming place, with very nice views. We went to the week and we had the restaurant just for us. delicate attention and attentive. we ate the tasting menu where all the dishes were exquisite. good price of quality ratio.

Last Sunday, March 27th, we went to eat my wife and me. The experience was, as always, great. The truth is that after reading negative opinions we hesitated to go and eat there, but we wanted to find out whether the opinions were true or not. And what we find out is that we still have a lot of drip. We've known him for over 30 years, and we even made our wedding banquet there. We'll celebrate a birthday soon and go there to celebrate.

We were invited to a wedding that was celebrated in Can Pique. Away from all the tourism in Barcelona city this topical restaurant on top of a hill offers some fantastic dishes alongside with a nice view. We enjoyed our stay there very much, not only because of the great event but also for the wast choice of home made servings we could taste.

This was and is) a classic family restaurant: a place you went for charcoal grilled mutton chops, sausage and beans, canelloni, the usual Catalan Sunday lunch fare. And then the onwer's son, Albert Oltra attended culinary school. He hit the time-travel button and Can Piqué fastforwarded 50 years or so. It landed in Catalan contemporary cooking; he kept the roots the canneloni and the charcoal grilled meats are still there, and so are most of the usual customers), but added new dishes: Venere rice with porcini, cobina with romesco sauce, confit de pancetta, 70ºC kid leg. Save some appetite for the exquisite desserts: French toast with ice cream, baked pineapple, chocolate confections... It can be hard to find: it's off BV5011, the windy road connecting Montcada with Badalona. If you start from Montcada, it's a mile or so away, then take a dirt road to the left and follow it for another mile. It has some views of the Besos valley urban sprawl and highways) but still it feels aloft and calm. They have two rooms: in the larger, they can have wedding receptions disclaimer: eight yeras ago almost to the day, I had mine there) and other parties. Phoning for a reservation is a good idea. In season December to March), they offer quite good calçotades: meals based on roasted second-year onion sprouts they look like baby leeks), dipped on a romesco-like sauce, followed by assorted charcoal-grilled meats.

We will celebrate the communion of our son, after a first visit the place fascinated us: quiet place with park for the small and fabulous views. After looking at the comments of the page we were afraid and we were thrown back, even without finding room today we decided to go eat with the whole family and the truth that we loved. Yes, few people but I value it as potivio, the exquisite food (the cow fillet with foi tremendo! the presentation of the dishes also well and the good poor. Summing up, the comments on the page do not joticia. Today we have given the pay and sign to celebrate the communion of our son.
