Mediterranean Cuisine à la Braise
Nestled in the heart of Sitges, Spain, Restaurant Bartomeo is a local culinary gem famous for its creative Mediterranean cuisine and passion for dishes cooked à la braise — over glowing charcoal that gives every meal a deep, smoky signature flavor.
From grilled mussels and falafel with herbs to their beloved Bartomeo salad and seasonal tapas, every plate reflects the relaxed yet sophisticated spirit of Sitges dining.
A Mediterranean Menu Full of Flavor
Bartomeo offers a diverse menu celebrating Spanish grilling traditions with a focus on local and ecological ingredients. Dishes like courge en papillote, provolone braisé, and aubergine milanaise show how the kitchen transforms simple vegetables and meats into flavorful works of art.
The tapas menu changes with the season — grilled watermelon with goat cheese and mint in summer, and spicy chimichurri tapas in winter. Each small plate is a celebration of Catalan creativity.
For plant-based guests, the vegan burger, houmous with crudités, and nuggets vegan sauce moutarde make this one of the most inclusive kitchens in Sitges.
Grilled Meats and Signature Dishes
One of Bartomeo’s highlights is its grilled meat selection. From Argentine bavette de veau and tomahawk de bœuf to ecological Spanish veal burgers, every cut is carefully sourced and perfectly charred.
Their Bomba Bartomeu, a tapas creation that won the 3rd Prize at the “Tapa a Tapa” competition, is legendary among locals. The restaurant’s poulpe à la braise — octopus with piment mayonnaise — showcases the chef’s finesse with seafood.
Classic comfort dishes like steak tartare, cannelloni de veau, and escalope milanaise add a nostalgic European touch.
Desserts and Sweet Creations
The meal often ends with the brownie à la braise — warm, smoky, and paired with vanilla ice cream. Other favorites include the Martín cheesecake, churros with hot chocolate, and a mango mascarpone cream that guests never forget.
Wines and Beverages
To accompany every dish, Bartomeo curates an excellent wine list featuring Catalan AOP wines, Rioja reds, and Rías Baixas Albariño whites.
From Malbec from Argentina to Cava Llopart and Veuve Clicquot Champagne, each glass is chosen to elevate the smoky and vibrant flavors from the kitchen.
A Taste of Sitges
Set just steps from the beach, Restaurant Bartomeo Sitges captures the essence of Catalan hospitality — casual elegance, warmth, and love for great food. Whether it’s tapas with friends or a romantic dinner over a bottle of Spanish wine, every visit feels like a celebration of local life.
