Toto is right accross the street from Cornelia and next to Crusto bakery. The decoration is really nice and thought through, but I can't help but think that I've seen this style in so many other restaurants in Barcelona in the last 2 years. Surprisingly, the owner of Toto is the same as Crusto's, which explains the excellent bread basket.

While in most Barcelona restaurants all the interesting dishes are on the starters menu and the main courses are just a fill-in, in Toto the main courses are the best part: Heavy meat stews with generous gravies and side dishes, everything well cooked and tender. Perfect food for a cold winter's night!

The staff is very sweet and they clearly want to make the clients feel welcome, but unfortunately fail in their task. Aperitifs come after first course, white wine ordered for first course comes together with the red ordered for the meat etc. Nothing too bad but not correct either for these prices.
