El Rey de la Gamba
Restaurant

Discover in Barceloneta the best seafood platters, paellas and our exquisite and well-known “jamón”. A unique experience for the palate in the heart of the fishing district.

El Rey de la Gamba lit its fires one sunny morning in 1972 to later in 2002 pass into the hands of the hotelier Juan Manuel Cals, giving it a fresh and innovative air, managing to gain a place among the most big.

Culinarily speaking, it is known for its impressive portions of prawns, its exuberant grilled fish and shellfish, its reserve “jamón” and of course, its imperial dish, the Mariscada. Without forgetting its paellas and soupy rice dishes typical of the fishing district of Barceloneta. That’s El Rey de la Gamba, thanks in part to you…
