Penya’s standout dishes include his vinaigrette cabbage, the phyllo onion with crème fraîche, and his veal sweetbreads and mustard potato (and whatever you do, don't miss the torrijas for dessert).
Frommer's
"Diners with more taste than money come here to enjoy Penya's penchant for tickling the palate...Barcelonans call a restaurant like this “bistronomic.” We call it a bargain worth seeking out."
