As someone currently learning Italian, I try to immerse myself in the language as much as possible—even while living in Barcelona. I listen to Italian podcasts daily, and when I really want to take it up a notch, I head to one of my favorite Italian restaurants in the city for a full-on Italian experience—Velissima.
This is not just your typical Italian restaurant. The moment you step inside, you’re transported to a glamorous, vintage-inspired world—an elegant Italian yacht from the 1960s. From the very entrance, the experience begins. Friendly staff and live performers, dressed in classic Italian attire, greet you with a warm Benvenuto! As they guide you to your table (I always try to get one with a view of the port), you can already sense that this will be more than just a meal—it’s going to be an unforgettable evening.
But the night doesn’t end with dinner. As the evening progresses, Velissima transforms into a lively dance bar, where the music gets louder, the energy builds, and soon, everyone is on their feet, enjoying the electric atmosphere. Whether you’re here for a romantic dinner, a celebratory night out, or just to soak in the Dolce Vita vibes, Velissima guarantees an experience that’s as entertaining as it is delicious.
So if you’re craving an Italian escape without leaving Barcelona, Velissima is the place to be. Ci vediamo lì!
