Ikoya sits opposite the renowned Mercat de Santa Caterina and just a few steps from Barcelona Cathedral, offering a unique location and a spacious and welcoming environment. IKOYA provides a meeting point between our market’s exceptional products and the unparalleled Japanese technique. The charm of the embers, both solvent and unpredictable, brings it all together. A gateway to Tokyo’s taverns! There is a selected range of sashimis, niguiris, ramens, hosomakis and uramakis, meat and fish dishes, and of course, robata. An artisanal selection of sakes, all perfectly paired. A project by Hideki Matsuhisa and Iñaki Lz from Viñaspre —Grupo Sagardi—

Waited a while for a menu and had to ask. No good for this level. Poor and inattentive services. Removed the dishes before we had finished and kept having to say we are still eating. Food is good shame the service lets it down.

We visited this restaurant twice during the stay in Barcelona as we loved the food and the restaurant so much. The atmosphere is lovely. Feels like a real Japanese restaurant. The food is delicious and we tried almost everything on the menu. I can warmly recommend the restaurant!

We had a great dinner here in April 2023 (on vacation from Toronto, Canada). The food was like many other Izakaya restaurants we've been to: delicious. We were at a table and could see the chefs preparing the food; watching dishes being grilled on the bright flame was fun. The Ibérico Surprise and the Wagyu beef dishes were both a delight, and the Matcha Souflé was a wonderful dessert. We enjoyed a great meal, with friendly service, we would definitely return.
