Very cool concept! It appears to be a former church repurposed for a beautiful and all- inclusive restaurant. There were cool and welcoming posters to many minorities, including POC and queer people, which made me feel seen and welcome. We went for drinks in the nice garden but they also have great food!

WOW We had an incredible experience at La Ciutat dels Sants.. The atmosphere in the converted church is cosy with warm lighting, unlike purple pictures from the past. The bare wooden furniture is reminiscent of former church benches. All in all, the interior is a stylish, minimalist wink to the previous use of the building without religious intent (or mockery). We wish we had taken a look at the garden! And the food.. We are both vegetarians and love food; this dinner is at the top of our list. We had enough options to consider from the menu and the dishes were served back-to-back after eachother so we had attention for one dish without having to wait in between. We ordered the st.Ignasi cheese and shakshuka for starters, and the quesadilla and curry for seconds (all shared for two people). For dessert we went with the waiter's recommendation of beetroot cake. * The cheese was served cold with toast, a dark berry jam, crushed walnuts and the largest grapes I have ever seen. Very strong flavours to begin the meal with, but delicious altogether. * The shakshuka is well-balanced with plenty fresh herbs, green pepper and two poached eggs in tomato sauce. It's served with pa de coca, which was very nice to eat the shakshuka with, but we asked for some more pieces to finish the dish with. * The quesadilla with rovellons is a revolution; the flavours keep coming for a good ten seconds and are undescribable. The dish gives deep, harty mushroom supported with some subtle (goat?) cheese and accompanied by a soft and fresh green sauce + some basic salad. The taste of the rovellons was unlike any other time we had them before, I had to put my fork down after every bite and had chills up my spine. * The curry: it was served in a large bowl, and we were a bit weary after eating three dishes already. But holy ..... We were greeted by a sweet/sour curry with lemongrass, coconut, tamarind and a plethora of vegetables (cherry tomatoes, broccolini, pumpkin, onion, aubergine..). Normally, rice, a vegetable mix and sauce don't excite me but all vegetables had clearly been grilled before being added to the curry and combined into a delightful dish. * After all this we couldn't miss out on a dessert and had a beetroot cake to share with coffee. The beetroot cake is a carrot cake style in four layers but more fluffy and moist. It also had walnuts and raisins which blended well with the flavour. The flavours at La Ciutat dels Sants were incredible, while the plating remained simple; everything looked good without pretense. We had red wine (Vespres?) from Montsant with our meal that paired well with pretty much all dishes. The staff is friendly and relaxed- we felt welcome and well taken care off. This restaurant is absolutely worth it! We are hoping to come back soon.
