Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: A mythical place in my land, la Garrotxa, the last time I was there I noticed a very positive leap in quality in their products, local food with a touch of order and decoration carefully placed in certain dishes, the only slightly negative thing was the puree that came as a side was a bit cold, but I will overlook that thanks to the excellent service from the waiters, friendly and quick, I will return whenever I can! It's a safe bet and close to home, great value for money.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: We have come back after a year to eat the creamy rice they had in suggestions again... What a surprise for me! The creamy rice is not the same as last year, and I traveled 100 kilometers for a deception... I feel disappointed, I hope to return tomorrow and that they have the rice. THANK YOU!

Fantastic experience: I was there last Saturday for the first time, and my wife and I were very happy. Very friendly and attentive service, very good food, great space between tables. My name is Bernardo, so the nice waitress who served us knows that if I was going to give a good review of the restaurant, as I told her in person. I have fulfilled.

Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: I went with a group and they served us very well. The food is very good.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: Good restaurant to enjoy, it is not a luxury restaurant but the food is very good, maybe it lacks some empathy with the clientele. The food is frankly very very good, it is not excellent but well cooked, a very correct and attentive girl served us.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: 17.5€ for the menu during the week. It’s very good for that price.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Undoubtedly a good choice. I recommend it. The service is very good, attentive and cheerful. The food... The problem is the menu, you can't ask for everything! If you visit La Fageda, Olot or nearby, it is definitely a very good place to eat.
Translated from Spanish

Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Ideal restaurant if you are going to the volcanic area of Garrotxa
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: A very well-known restaurant in the area for its excellent menu, both daily and for the weekend. We went on Saturday after doing the volcano route, but we made a reservation in advance, and we couldn't have chosen better. The menu, at €27, is super complete and its dishes are exquisite, from the starter (which is complimentary) to the desserts. Furthermore, even though the restaurant is very large and there are many diners, the service is attentive and friendly, and they make you feel at home. We recommend it 100%. If we come back to the area, we will definitely return!
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: When I thought breakfast was unbeatable, we returned for lunch at noon. The best food of all time, I wish it were closer to home. I still dream of the carrot puree and the mató flan.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Very friendly staff, calm atmosphere to be able to talk without having to shout. The food is well presented and very good.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: We were passing through the area and looking for a place to eat when we found this establishment. It is a huge place with several dining rooms. I was surprised by how quick the service was given the number of people there. The waitresses who served us were nice and the food is good. The salad I had was very good, it was a fresh and light tomato salad. The calamari didn’t amaze me but they were fine. The menu has a lot of variety, you can see it in the picture I shared. If we come back to the area, I wouldn’t have any problems returning.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: The meat dishes on the menu were very good, but they needed a little more quantity. The staff was very attentive. Next time I will try the menu.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Fantastic, very good food at a very reasonable price and above all, great service!
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Good food. Perfect service, reasonable price. I will return
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: I can only give five stars. The food… a 10 The service. A +10 Nice atmosphere. You get what you pay for. And everything is good. The person who served us, a student who had been working for a year. Attentive, quick, cordial, and very correct at all times.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: It is an excellent restaurant, managed with a good team in the dining area. Value for money is very good, congratulations. We will return. Ps,- Call to reserve.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: Decent food but nothing extraordinary, fast service (there are plenty of waiters), improveable atmosphere, decor from the last century and noisy
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: The place is very nice, the food is amazing, they have a great cook and the owner is very kind.
Translated from Spanish

Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: Quality-price menu is correct. Although the service is a bit slow.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Few places are as well-rounded in terms of quality-price-attention-location. We had a fantastic meal in a wonderful place with outstanding staff. Congratulations to the business for being so well managed.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Third year that a large group of families goes, and as always, great treatment, quality price, and service.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: The food is super good, at a good price.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Very good value for money, very fast service and a very large place with plenty of space. Weekday menu 16.5€
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: Very friendly and helpful staff, snails were very good, lamb leg in the oven was somewhat burnt and dry (maybe heated in the microwave?) Good mató, but very little and some rancid walnuts. The worst, but the worst, were the restrooms, they smelled very bad, only static or unplugged extractors and the hand sanitizer was as sticky as Viks Vaporup, I had to wash my hands twice to get it off. I think a restaurant that works as much as this one should take more care of the details. I can't recommend it to anyone.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: The food is great. The waitresses are very attentive and pleasant.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Good place to go eat. Quality and good service
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Very good place, excellent food accompanied by exceptional service, if I come back here as there is great parking in front of a forest to stroll, I will come back to eat with my family.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Excellent restaurant! Good food and good price! Recommendable. We will return!
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Good food and excellent service. The staff was very attentive and aware of everything. They have free parking right in front. We had a reserved table. Around 10:30 AM we arrived at the restaurant parking, left the car, and went to visit the Santa Margarida and Croscat volcanoes. At lunchtime we returned to the restaurant. Everything was ready for lunch. The staff stood out, I give them a 10. The food was very good too. You can choose a weekend menu (27€) or à la carte, we opted for the latter. There is also a children's menu (12€). It was our first time and we will definitely return from now on.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: We hiked to the Croscat volcano and the Santa Margarida one, and since we were in the area, we reserved at this restaurant. The place is spacious and the atmosphere is very calm. We go with our 2-year-old daughter and they already had the table set up with a high chair, plastic cup, and small cutlery, a great detail. They have a menu and a la carte options; we chose the menu as we liked the price and the variety of dishes. We chose typical dishes from the area, and everything was delicious!! Especially ask for els fessols (a type of white bean from the area). The truth is we really liked how they treated us, the food, the atmosphere, everything. They have free parking in front of the restaurant.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Local food, fair price. Highlight the kindness of the staff, always with a smile and a pleasure to see them work. Excellent and a place to return to.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: The place is not bad, the service is attentive, but the meat, very cold. I ordered ribeye and it seemed taken out of the fridge, and my companion ordered the mixed grill, and exactly the same. Cold is cold, not lukewarm.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: I went to celebrate a birthday, set menu good price. Spectacular appetizer, well prepared and very good quality, the service very attentive and friendly, I couldn't find a single fault. It had been a while since we ate so well and especially being a group, which is usually difficult to please everyone. We will definitely come back!
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: The food is of very high quality, the restaurant is super refurbished, very modern. I truly recommend it, and there is a pool as well.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: We were a large group, the young waiters were a bit lost, but very friendly. The food was very good, my husband is celiac and they adapted the menu for him. A big plus.
Translated from French

Fantastic experience: It was a unique experience, we will definitely come back. Everything was perfect and the service was also top-notch. It had been a long time since we enjoyed ourselves like this, thank you.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Everything is fine, very good, the price is right. We enjoyed the food and atmosphere a lot.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: My wife and I went for lunch last Saturday. We were surprised, everything was delicious. But especially the service from two sisters, very attentive and friendly! A great treatment, a friend of mine told me, you don’t find workers like that! It's worth appreciating!
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: We went for a spoon breakfast, specifically “butifarra amb mongetes de Santa Pau”. Correct breakfast and at a price. Location very close to the parking to do routes through the volcanoes and the beech forest.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Amazing... I didn't expect it like this. Spectacular food and a service from the waitstaff that was super pleasant
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: The food was delicious, we ordered the daily menu and it was worth it. We went with a prior reservation. The service was very friendly.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: A very spacious restaurant, very good service, fast and excellent value for money, recommended, located in Santa Pau, just a few kilometers from Olot, some very beautiful towns.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: Can Xel is a large restaurant, huge with several dining rooms, the weekend menu is €25, and there are plenty of dishes to choose from, the service is quick. Some dishes ordered from the menu, like the hake, were a bit dry. The meat dishes are better prepared. In short, it's a decent restaurant, but more focused on large groups, there are events they should consider for the rest of the diners, in the dining room next to where we were seated there was an event with more than 100 people, loud music, and when they spoke through the microphone, it was excessively loud, we couldn't maintain a conversation without raising our voices, this dining room was only separated by wooden screens, which did not dampen the noise, it felt like we were inside a fair. There was a couple we heard complaining and leaving the table.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: A beautiful place to celebrate a wedding, the food is very good
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Excellent food, excellent service. The place looks like a simple bar from the outside, but inside it has a super luxury lounge! I would go back.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: We have eaten and stayed in the apartments, the owner treated us as if we were her family, our baby was sick during our stay and she provided us with every possible facility to make us feel at home. The food was excellent. We are delighted and grateful. Don't hesitate to go!! We will return whenever we are in the area!! Thank you so much CanXel!
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: To repeat. Good food at a fair price, variety to choose from and menu option, good service and an ideal location to plan a day trip to Fageda. I recommend it.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: We have been several times to the can xel restaurant, the food is excellent, the service a 10, great value for money. The eggs capuchin style are amazing. It is very close to the volcanic area and the Fageda. Without a doubt we will return.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: The food is very good, the menu includes a small starter, first course, second course, dessert, water, and bread, there is a lot of variety, we all ordered different things and everything was very tasty. There is a children's menu. All the waiters are super attentive, the restaurant is well maintained.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Lunch menu on weekdays for €16, water, wine, and bread included with a starter, first course, second course, and dessert. The wine of the menu is 'Bufar I Fer Ampolles' and they leave you the whole bottle freshly opened. The portions are perfect so you don't roll out, everything is very tasty, with just the right amount of salt, not too salty if you prefer something saltier. The hake with parmentier was delicious with a grilled touch that added a very original and rich flavor. The fideuà was quite good for a menu, with its crispy bit and a few drops of allioli with curry. The Russian salad of the starter was something you could eat an entire plate of. For dessert, I had a 'català', which is nougat ice cream with ratafia on top and the Neapolitan cookie, which I had never tried before, and it was delicious. A very original flavor. The sacher cake for dessert had homemade, very moist sponge cake. The service was 10/10, giving a lot of elegance to the place with the way the waiters attend to you and their cleanliness. I recommend it and would definitely return.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: Delicious except for one detail: you order steak medium or well done and, if you order it with sauce, it’s useless, they bring it completely raw and even if they tell you they’ll cook it more, it’s a placebo. They bring it exactly the same, I guess it can’t be cooked more with the sauce on top and they don’t replace it with another. My carnivorous daughter ate it and I was left hungry.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: Very good. Traditional dishes with modern presentations
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: It's a much larger restaurant than it seems and with impeccable service. The food is very good.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Very good food and very good value for money
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: I recommend the menu at Can Xel, excellent value for money, the menu is very varied with different dishes, the service is super attentive and friendly, the restaurant is spacious and even though it is busy, you feel very comfortable. I will definitely return.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: We had dinner by the pool. The food was super delicious, good portions, and the dessert was fabulous. We left really full, that’s for sure. The waiters were very friendly and attentive. Highly recommended!!
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: The food is excellent, they remove the cutlery for each plate. The air conditioning is fine, and there is ample outdoor parking. Now they no longer remove the cutlery, but everything else remains just as good.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: Restaurant located a few kilometers from the town of Olot, ideal if you have previously visited La Fageda. It has up to 3 spacious dining rooms, with two lunch shifts at 1 PM and 3 PM. We made a reservation around noon and there was no problem. The daily menu is 16 euros, and if I'm not mistaken, the weekend menu is around 25€. The menu is super complete with appetizers, two main courses, dessert, water, wine, and bread included in it. The food was very delicious... exceptional homemade ham croquettes as well as the Carrod cake. The service is very young but as we would say in my younger days... exceptionally well prepared. The value for money is perfect... if you are in the area doing any activity, it is a place you must visit for sure.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: The dinners by the pool are very pleasant.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Very good experience. We went around 3 in the afternoon without a reservation and they attended to us without any problem. The restaurant is located on the first floor of the building, the ground floor is a bar. Two very large and tastefully decorated lounges. Quality-price more than reasonable considering that we ate house specialty dishes and considering its location (less than 10 minutes from the Santa Margarida volcano). Very attentive and polite staff, highly recommended place. Thank you very much for the service received.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Great value for money, to say something, there are many very young and inexperienced waiters, a bit more efficiency would be needed but I am happy to return
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: Very noisy place, other than that everything is fine.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: We had a wonderful weekend menu, the only downside was the noise in the dining room was a bit heavy, large dining rooms and very fast service, I recommend it to you and also luxurious desserts.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: We were 73 people from a senior citizens' association and everyone was very satisfied with the place, the service, the menu, and the elegance of the restaurant, a very well-prepared menu and very attentive staff to ensure nothing was missing from the tables. Recommended % x%.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: The place is very good in terms of food, but the halls are very large and there is too much noise. If they had smaller halls, it would be appreciated. You have to shout to talk. The food is spectacular and reasonably priced
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Delicious food with a €15 menu during the week and coffee for €1 more, everything is very tasty and abundant. The staff is very friendly. The only downside is that the menu is only served in the restaurant, not on the terrace, and dogs are not allowed, but everything else is very good.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: We didn't expect everything to be so good. The food was very good and the service was also very good.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Great place to eat, very good value for money and fast and attentive service despite the large number of people in their big halls. Weekend menu for €25 including coffee, to which they add two welcome appetizers and a plate of olives. Highly recommended!
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: As always, everything is great ☺️
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Four of us had the Sunday menu and all four of us ordered different dishes. Based on our reactions, I couldn't say which dish was the best. The kitchen was great, the service was perfect and quick.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: I have nothing negative. By chance, we stopped on the way back from visiting a volcano to have something to drink, and in the end, we stayed for lunch. Very good food and very friendly service. I recommend it. There are routes to volcanoes departing from here, and the restaurant has free parking.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: Restaurant with several menus and a menu. The menus are complete. Good quality of the products. The service was fast and attentive. With parking in front of the restaurant.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: Its quality/price is unbeatable. Staff @l 100, always attentive to the diners. I recommend it, and you can also make the most of the day by walking around the volcanic area.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: Good food, good quality, and a very nice place to visit the volcanoes and the Fageda d'en Jorda, it is advisable to book even though it is large
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Very nice place with plenty of space to eat seasonal food. The service is very friendly.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Place recommended for the quality of food and the great treatment from the staff, especially with the children. We were a large group with many children and the service was excellent. They were able to have seconds without issue while more food was offered. They were prioritized and very well taken care of, then with paints and several toys to distract them. Magnificent place and totally recommended for groups and celebrations.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: A pleasant surprise, I had been having breakfast for a few days for work and we decided to go with the family for lunch and it was spectacular, very very satisfied, we will definitely repeat
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: Giant dining hall, one of those that looks like a school camp, which was full and therefore very noisy. The first course, some canelloni that were nothing special. I’ve had much better. The second course, on the other hand, I quite liked (8.5/10). The beef was super tender, the best part of the meal. The desserts were not very elaborate.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: Restaurant close to Fageda d'en Jordà and the volcanic area and the Natural Park of the volcanic zone of Garrotxa, with trails for hiking or other mountain sports. The restaurant has a small terrace and inside there are several large dining rooms. We were able to choose from the weekend menu another special menu 'volcanic menu' or the option of dishes from the menu. We tried dishes from both menus. The quality of the dish preparations is good, and most of the food is traditional from the area with a nice presentation. The prices for the menus are 22€ and 25€. The house red and white wines are decent, as are the desserts. Although the prices of restaurants in this area are similar, I believe the price is slightly high for the type of menu. It is easy to park right in front of the restaurant, although it should be taken into account on weekends and especially during the summer months. The service has been excellent and very proper, from all the employees. In the dining room where we were, the background noise was annoying due to the large number of people present in the dining room.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: The food was delicious but in small quantity, still, I would return for the great quality of the food. The service was exceptional. We went without a reservation and they accommodated us; we had the volcano menu priced at €22 per person on a Sunday.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: We came from the Basque Country exploring the area and we found this restaurant very hungry and the truth is that everything was delicious, especially the snails. We had a champion's lunch, we ordered everything and it was all tasty. Honestly, before returning to San Sebastián, I will have breakfast here, it’s amazing!
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Ideal place to eat after hiking in the natural park of the volcanoes. Menu for €15 that includes starter, first course, second course, dessert, bread, wine, and water. For starters, we ordered salad, pumpkin cream, and vegetable quiche, all delicious for 'satisfying the craving'. For the first courses: escudella, salad with cold cuts, tempura calçots, and croquettes. The second courses (they were so good that we didn't make it for the photo) were pig's feet and chicken with ratafia sauce, and everything was exquisite. For desserts, we chose the crema catalana and mel i mató, also spectacular. Very quick and attentive service. Clean restrooms.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: The daily menu is very complete (starter, first course, second course, and dessert) for 15 euros. The service, despite the large number of people, was perfect at all times. The food was all delicious and the portions were quite good. One of the best in the area.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: The food is very good, and the service is fantastic. Very nice place.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: A place that you must visit if you are in the area. Delicious food and friendly and nice service. Without a doubt, you should heed the chef's recommendations. One of the best rice dishes we have ever had.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Visiting the volcanic area of Garrotxa to do route 1. Before starting, we stopped in the morning to make a reservation for 2 people. When we arrived at 1 PM, we were pleasantly surprised because upon entering, we saw a small area and didn't imagine how large it is on the upper floor. We were the first ones there. It is true that it is prepared for weddings and events with many people as it has a capacity of 200 people, at least in the dining room we were in, but we ate very well and the service from all the waitresses and waiters was great. Recommended.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: Correct and that's it. You get a disappointment when you enter and, instead of finding yourself in a cozy place (what you expect from the area), you end up in huge rooms with no charm (ideal for weddings, banquets, and communions). The food is just okay. Menu at 18 euros which, although varied and reasonably priced, is nothing to write home about. Excellent service. Very clean establishment.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Super cozy place and very spacious. The service from the staff is a 10. The food is very good with its quantities and everything perfect. Meats and desserts, the best, as well as their cannelloni. I will return without a doubt.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: The restaurant is well located, has parking and 2 outdoor terraces (one of them has a porch), they serve you quickly and are very efficient, plus the staff is very young. We chose the menu (€25), the dishes were spectacular and portions large, the only thing is that we asked if we could come in with a dog, they told us no, but there was 1 inside that we saw through the glass...
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: Amplio restaurante. Comida tradicional catalana. Precios razonables y servicio excelente. Repetiremos sin duda
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Parada de camino de vuelta de ver la fageda, atención muy buena, bocata de tortilla de francesa con baicon muy rico y la crema catalana de postre de las mejores que he probado . Sitio recomendado
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: We were there today Saturday, it was the first time, we came from Santa Pau after doing the gorgs route (4h) so we were starving, the service was fast and friendly, everything was very tasty. The prices are good. We ordered from the menu because we wanted to choose dishes, even though it came out like the Daily Menu which is 25€. I will definitely return!
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: My wife and I went to eat, with a reservation made 2 weeks in advance. It is a very large place suitable for any kind of celebration. They gave us a table by the windows that overlook the pool (they have a huge pool that can be accessed for a modest fee). We ate very well at a very good price, but the best part... The service. They are very young men and women who were attentive to our needs without rest... A 10 for all of them. They are very professional, attentive, and friendly. Highly recommended if you don't mind being in a gigantic dining hall. We will return, without a doubt.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Weekend menu very good, nice, and at a good price. Eating à la carte is also very good. We looked at the children's menu and saw that it was macaroni Bolognese and sausage with potatoes. I thought it was one to choose. But that's not all. The potatoes were great. Nothing frozen.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: Food is good, a 15 e menu, you can't ask for more. Lots of people, very good service, quick, and maybe I didn't choose well. I didn't like the cannelloni. Fried calamari had too much oil.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: One of the best places to enjoy the surroundings and eat super well. Great quality and the price of the menu surprises you. Better to reserve. 100% recommendable.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: I went as a guest to a wedding. The food was delicious, the service from the waiters was very good, they were polite and very attentive. The venue was spacious and very beautiful. The appetizers were very varied and complete, everything was amazing. A 10. The food was delicious. The cod loin was very juicy. The beef brisket was delicious, very well prepared, it was very tender, living up to its name. The yogurt mousse with cherry sorbet was delicious. The wedding cake, cheese mousse with raspberries, was the most delicious I have ever eaten in my life.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Excellent value for money. Quick and attentive service. Excellent grilled flavor. Perfectly located to visit the area.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: A huge restaurant with different halls and many tables. They have a very reasonably priced menu and a menu with specialties in volcanic food. The table service is very quick and the girls are very friendly. The presentation of the dishes is very simple, but the food is delicious. A great choice of restaurant. I recommend it 100%.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: The dishes are delicious, the dining rooms are huge, and there is an affordable and generous children's menu. All 4 of us loved it!
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: A pretty good place, great value for money, it's very good for people who go hiking since there are several trails that are quite close, and the price is quite good, I ordered a butifarra and some beans, which are local, and for €5 it's very good, quantity and quality, I fully recommend it, Regards!
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: Restaurant associated with a tourist complex consisting of apartments, a swimming pool, and a restaurant. We were able to access without a reservation at 2 PM on a Saturday after doing the 10 km excursion in the volcanic area of Garrotxa. Parking is easy. They have a menu and à la carte options. Good dishes and reasonable prices. Their staff's attention is more than correct.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: I went once about 7/8 years ago and I really liked the place, and due to life circumstances, I've come back now and the quality, if it's not the same, is better. Waiters/waitresses are wonderful Food quality is very good Super accessible price They have parking, high chairs for kids, air conditioning... If you're in the area, HIGHLY recommended Special mention to the canalons and desserts
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Excellent food quality and price, unbeatable setting very close to Fageda and the natural park of the volcanic zone of La Garrotxa. Both a dinner on the summer terrace, an idyllic place, and in any of its spacious and well-lit indoor dining rooms are perfect. Super attentive, professional, and very friendly staff. 100% recommendable.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: An elegant place. Good presentation of dishes and average quality. The dishes seemed to have been plated hours ago, important details like soft bread… re-heated croquettes and greasy patatas de Olot… overcooked mussels with their sauce.. It’s a place we have known with better qualities. Nowadays, I won’t repeat. From the group that we have eaten with, 3 people have experienced intestinal discomfort.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: Perfect for going with family. Very good menu and quality/price ratio. The service is excellent and very attentive.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: 15e menu during the week, with a starter and several first and second courses to choose from, large dining room, fast and friendly service. We ate very well, the only suggestion is that you have a menu in Spanish for those who do not speak Catalan.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: We stopped for lunch by chance and, without a doubt, it was a great decision. Well-prepared food at an unbeatable price, €14 for the menu (appetizer, first course, second course, dessert, and drinks). Friendly professional, very good service. Totally recommendable.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Excellent experience, for €25 on a Sunday, food and service fit for royalty. Starter, first and second courses, plus dessert and drinks (red wine, white wine, and cava. Coffee and desserts included. Out of 45 diners, 44 left more than delighted, there always has to be one discordant note. A retirement party for two colleagues to remember. Thanks to the staff at Can Xel, we will definitely return.

Fantastic experience: Very good Catalan food restaurant. Excellent quality menu. Good service. Parking nearby.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Hello, we stopped for lunch at Can Xel, great dining area and it's appreciated since we walked in without a reservation. The salads were very good, mine with goat cheese, which I really liked as it was accompanied by quince pieces, giving it a very tasty sweet touch. The second dish was also a 10. Both plates ended up clean. Good cuisine and organized and attentive waiters. 10

Fantastic experience: The food was excellent and well presented, the menu price is more than reasonable at €14, if you are in the area I recommend it 100%, the service was great, the guy explained what we did not understand, I left delighted and satisfied
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: Restaurant well located in a good tourist area on the way. The menu seemed fine to us without too many pretensions. Fair quality-price. Very noisy and very large rooms. Except for a more private dining area. The young girl who served us was very nice.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: I love it. Affordable menu with delicious dishes for about 8€. Very good service. Highly recommended.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Traditional cuisine, well prepared and presented, very friendly and efficient service, even though it was full. On weekends they have two shifts, reservation is essential. Highly recommended.

Positive experience: We had a great meal!! The service was very friendly and attentive!! Don’t miss the dessert; chocolate cake with peanut ... original and delicious!!!!
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Fabulous, delicious food and generous portions. Weekend menu that includes wine (a bottle for two), water, a soup starter, and then a first course, main dish, dessert, and coffee. Very good service. We didn't know what to choose from the menu as everything was very interesting, we will definitely return. I recommend reserving as it gets crowded despite being enormous.

Fantastic experience: Brutal restaurant. Very good service like the food. Fabulous.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Very rich flavor, I would come back many more times
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Very complete daily menu of 3 dishes and very good. Perfect quality price. The service is very attentive at all times and they provide Wi-Fi in an area with poor coverage, which is appreciated. Disinfection and adherence to very strict COVID rules. 100% recommendable.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: Perfect restaurant for the classic day at Fageda d'en Jordà or the volcanoes. Menu price is 14 euros with starter, first course, second course, dessert or coffee and wine. Menu quality is very good, except for the desserts, which are rather disappointing.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: This is the second time we have taken the lunch menu (25 euros) and it still has a very good quality/price ratio. They also have a menu and a volcanic menu for 22 euros. The place is large with several dining rooms, but it feels comfortable as there is a lot of space between tables. All the dishes are well cooked and well presented.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: I was pleasantly surprised!! It's difficult to get a table without a reservation, the young waiters are very attentive and friendly. The dishes are well presented and delicious, no doubt we'll repeat!!
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Varied menu. Excellent. Very good with elaborate dishes. There are many people inside but there are also outside, next to the pool with a fountain. A delight of a place and the food. The best restaurant I've been to in the week I've been in the province.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Everything was perfect, we went on a Sunday without a prior reservation at 14:00 and they seated us at a small table by the pool, the service from the staff was excellent and the food was delicious. Adapted for people with reduced mobility, spacious and clean. The asparagus cream was amazing. We will definitely come back.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: They served us without a reservation after waiting 10 minutes with a vermouth on the ground floor but we were lucky, it is advisable to reserve. The service was correct and everything was very good. The nougat ice cream dessert with ratafia is my favorite.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: The food was amazing and homemade. We had a €15 menu and it was very generous. Salad with tomato that tastes like tomato and a delicious knuckle. The homemade dessert was also very tasty. A waiter attended us and occasionally asked if everything was okay or if we needed anything, which is appreciated. Recommended!
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: A good place to eat well the local products and something more......good price for the quality of food they offer. The staff is lovely. Nothing more to say.....highly recommended and if I get lost here again....I WILL RETURN.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Good value for money. Good presentation. The waiters were very friendly. As Arnold Schwarzenegger said in Terminator: 'WE'LL BE BACK'.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: The food is good at a reasonable price. Great parking and an unbeatable environment.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Large restaurant with a terrace and pool. The most noteworthy aspect is the quality of the cuisine. Well-prepared dishes of great quality. Wonderful presentation and excellent service from the staff. They have a weekly menu and a weekend menu. Very good value for money. 100% recommended and close to the fageda and Santa Pau.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: Excellent value for money, the cuisine is outstanding, daily menu €13, very good service, fast and attentive, it lacks accessibility. Worth repeating, it is close to Olot, definitely worth visiting.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: After visiting the Fageda d'en Jorda, we went to eat and we liked it a lot. Good service and very good food! Recommended!!
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Although we could not enjoy the entire menu or the facilities due to COVID restrictions, and therefore my assessment is based exclusively on the service and food quality, I give them 5 stars. They have managed the situation very well and adapted to preparing takeaway food. All the dishes we tried were amazing and rated 10. The ease of ordering, the friendliness of the staff, and of course, the quality of the food make them worthy of this rating. The food is typical of the area, although they also have classic dishes like paella or fish. My recommendations are the fesols de Santa Pau, the cannelloni in its three versions, the beef in sauce, and the cheeks (galtes) or lamb. The portion sizes and their prices also seem appropriate to me. I will definitely return and continue trying their good cuisine.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: Everything was great, we decided to have brunch since there weren't hours to have lunch
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: A very elaborate menu with a daily appetizer included. Generous portions and a good selection of desserts. Homemade desserts and very tasty. Large, so the distance between tables is very adequate. A very good and quick service. Good location surrounded by the volcanic area of Garrotxa.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Good people....especially the restaurant service.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: The treatment, the service, the food, the closeness, and the kindness make Can Xel a perfect place to enjoy, whether it's a weekend getaway, a longer vacation, or a typical meal from the area. Excellent value for money. Last year we met them for a meal through some friends, and this year we have already stayed a few days in the apartments with full board.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Hacen un menú de fin de semana por 23.50 € y bebidas aparte que esta muy bien !!! El servicio y la calidad es bueno . No tardan mucho en atender. Recomendable.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Excellent restaurant for traditional Catalan food. We ate super well, the food was delicious and the price was very economical (around €13 for the menu). If you go on the weekend, the menu is more expensive. The place is very beautiful and cozy, with views of the mountain. Very friendly and attentive staff.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: We went this long weekend to eat, and even though it was full, the service was quick and attentive. Both the menu dishes and those from the a la carte were delicious. To say something, for my taste the octopus was a bit tough, although it was very tasty. Good value for money.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Quite fast even with a lot of people. Great quality in their dishes and good service. It's normal that it's advisable to book a table in advance, a lot of people gather for lunch.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: A good stop if you visit the Fageda d'en Jorda as it is very close and has parking. The restaurant is huge, with many rooms, which makes it noisy for my taste. Outside I saw a pool and I think they have dinners outside in the summer. The food is fine, normal.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: We were five to have à la carte. We ordered several volcanic cuisine dishes (the Garrotxa potatoes, Santa Pau beans, homemade truffle ice cream, ...) and other more conventional ones (eggplant timbale, creamy rice with mushrooms, cheek, tenderloin, esqueixada, ..). We all left very happy from there. I give it 4 stars for the dining room. A bit outdated and too noisy when a lot of people gather (it’s huge).
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Very good seasonal food, large portions, and very fast service
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: Very good value for money. The scrambled beans with sausage and the squid are delicious. Staff are very friendly and efficient. We will repeat!
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Very nice place perfect after a good excursion through the Fageda. We hadn't made a reservation and they served us without problems, we had a baby stroller and they let us use a service elevator. Everything was very quick even though shortly after us a lot of people started arriving. Everything was very tasty, and a good price-quality ratio. We had two menus (volcanic and the weekend one). In one, the pea cream was included in the price. I highlight the truffle ice cream, an incredible flavor. Highly recommended, no doubts we will repeat.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Great value for money, the restaurant is massive and has plenty of parking. They also have a pool.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: In the middle of the route, ideal for resting and relaxing. The kilometer-long restaurant and the weekend menu are great and abundant, excellent value for money, I will definitely come back, Highly recommended
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: There is no access for disabled people to enter the restaurant, nor is there anyone to assist you at its entrance. Good food and fast service, polite.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: I recommend this restaurant specializing in Volcanic Cuisine located on the outskirts of Olot! The food is delicious and the service very attentive. The restaurant and the surroundings are spectacular, ideal for taking a walk after eating around La Fageda or Santa Pau. I recommend the caputxina eggs!
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Very good service. Perfect presentation and delicious dishes. Very good quality-price ratio.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Very friendly staff. Very pleasant flavor, impeccable service, beautiful views, affordable prices... What more could you ask for.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: We were recommended and the truth is that we loved it. A large farmhouse with several rooms. The service was very attentive. The food was excellent. With an appetizer of zucchini and caramelized onion tortilla that was delicious. The black rice with cuttlefish and sausages was very, very good. Totally recommendable and a cheap daily menu that's finger-licking good.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: As always, very good food and good service. A large dining area and there is also a pleasant terrace outside. Weekend menu 25€ and children's menu 10€. The restaurant has a lot of variety of dishes at affordable prices. The restaurant has a large parking area for customers; you can also park a campervan. It's better to reserve in advance. There are also several routes to explore the area.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Great value for money. Additionally, we arrived quite late for lunch and they served us without any problem and with great kindness. We had the set menu because of the time and also because it seemed attractive to us. Everything we ordered was very well made, using quality raw materials. Highly recommended.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Excellent place to eat. We went during the week and they had a homemade menu for €12 that was really good, with some very nice views of the local volcanoes. 100% recommended. It wasn't on our way but people spoke well of it and it didn't disappoint. The only downside is that the menu is only in Catalan, but they translated it for us without any problems :)
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Restaurant with very large dining rooms. The staff's attention is wonderful. The food is spectacular. The price quality is very good. They also have apartments for a few days. I recommend it 100%.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: We had dinner as a family. In August. Almost alone, by the side of a perfectly lit pool. Although they offered us snack options, we opted to try some dishes from the menu. The cod esqueixada was exquisite, the beef with mushrooms was tender and flavorful. The confit cod was delicious and to top it off, the house cheesecake. GREAT. The service was very, very friendly and helpful. They recommended a white wine from the area that we loved. A place to return to.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Incredible.... delighted with everything, food and the place.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Located by the roadside with ample parking and has a pool. 100% homemade food and very attentive professional service. 100% recommended. They have high chairs and toilets for people with reduced mobility.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Very pleasantly surprised. For €13 you have a menu with a lot of variety to choose from: starter, first course, second course, and homemade dessert. We loved the cod brandade with mushrooms and the oven-baked hake with pumpkin. The service has also been very good, friendly and attentive. For children, they offer half a menu: macaroni and ice cream for dessert for €6.5. Recommended if you want quality food at a good price.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: The environment is pleasant. The food is spectacular. Very good presentation of the dishes. Fast service and a very spacious and elegant dining room. The daily menu costs €12. It includes three dishes, water, wine, and desserts. I had leek cream, salmon-filled ravioli, and battered squid. There were also Olot potatoes (stuffed with meat) and roast chicken. Everything is very good.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: A place with good value for money. With large halls that have a renovated classic look, very clean, although they do look like they are from the 80s. It reminds me of the typical wedding restaurants of yesteryear. The menu is also from that era. The typical melon with ham, breaded fish, etc... What was done before. They haven't evolved in the menu. The dishes are average, neither small nor oversized. The staff is very friendly and attentive.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Ideal for groups with independent rooms. Very good quality food, good presentation, and service. The price-quality ratio is good.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: The lunchtime menu on weekdays is very comprehensive and of great quality. Located next to the road with good parking

Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: Excellent value for money. Very good local food for 39Eu per couple. Friendly service and generous portions.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: Highly recommended. A restaurant offering homemade food but with a touch of sophistication. It’s worth choosing the Garrotxa menu for €20, the slow-cooked bacon is delicious and the Santa Pau beans are excellent.
