In Barcelona, every event deserves a special setting. At Somos Esencia, we have been working for years to turn congresses, family celebrations, birthdays or corporate events into memorable experiences. Our restaurants, located at strategic points in the city, offer versatile spaces and Mediterranean cuisine designed to accompany any occasion with authenticity and flavor.
We know that no two celebrations are the same. That's why at Somos Esencia we take care of every detail. From varied menus adapted to any dietary restriction, support in the setting of the space or the pace of the service. The long experience of our team in organizing events in Barcelona allows us to adapt to the expectations of each client, always with our own style that combines local products, hospitality and that Mediterranean character that defines us.
Dynamic spaces in the heart of the city: GatoPardo and Tierra Brava
Gato Pardo is a place designed for those who need spaciousness and flexibility. Its main room can bring together large groups and is ideal for business dinners, presentations, private parties or family gatherings. Its modern and elegant design is suitable for both formal events and more relaxed celebrations. It also has a private room with an adaptable layout that allows you to customize both sitting and create different environments in the same space.
Tierra Brava, on the other hand, is committed to a fresh and Mediterranean environment. It is a restaurant that breathes proximity and authenticity, perfect for groups that want to share tapas, embers and seasonal flavors in a relaxed environment. Birthdays, dinners with friends or informal celebrations find here a natural and joyful setting, where gastronomy becomes the center of the experience.
On the coast: Brisa and Barraca
Brisa Palau de Mar, located in Palau de Mar itself, has a wraparound terrace that can be enjoyed both in summer and in winter thanks to its air conditioning. It's a versatile space that works for both small meetings and large group bookings. Its menu, based on rice, tapas and fresh dishes, makes it easy for any event to maintain a Mediterranean and close atmosphere, with privileged views of Port Vell.
Barraca, in the heart of Barceloneta, offers another kind of charm. With two floors, a terrace overlooking the promenade and a warm decor, it is perfect for celebrations that seek authenticity. Its rice dishes and fresh produce cuisine make it an ideal place for birthdays, anniversaries or team meetings who want to enjoy the proximity of the sea without sacrificing gastronomic quality.
The kitchen as a common thread
In all our spaces, gastronomy is the true point of union. Our event menus are designed to share and encourage conversation. They include rice dishes prepared with care, traditional and creative tapas, fresh fish, local meat and vegetarian options that complete an experience open to all tastes. Each proposal is adapted to the group, ensuring that the celebration reflects the identity of those who enjoy it.

The experience accumulated in large events and intimate celebrations allows us to offer a professional and close service, which pays attention to both big details and small gestures.
