Orio restaurant in Barcelona brings all the warmth, welcome and style of middle European tavernas to the hot heart of Barcelona. Set in the middle of the barri gotic, a few paces from the Ramblas, Orio has a relaxed, informal atmosphere with bags of style. Tiled floors, informal seating and oyster bar on the ground floor are tempting, though you might choose the lower ground vaulted brick dining room with gothic prints, modern lighting and live music. Beer is the leading drink here, with more than 30 varieties on offer. The menu includes not only pintxos and tapas, but also Arcachon oyster, oven-roasted pork knuckle in traditional style and homemade Galician beef burger. The terrace is all-season, bright and warm in summer and covered and heated in winter.
