Jordi's mashed potatoes or purée de patates as he would call it knocked my socks off the first time I had it and they are still off! Olé! However, we are now also in love with his Donja, it's an little dish of appetizer that he serves before taking your order and it's absolutely delicious. He prepares the Donja himself... More

El crosto is in my mind one one of the best restaurants anywhere, forget the price, I have paid for or five times as much and not eaten better. Jordi is a fantastic host no menu just he tells what he has. I eat here every time I have been to andorra. One point you have to mention you have... More

What a great experience, delicious food with full explanations (a lot with sign language) and wonderful attention from Jordi. His two chefs in the kitchen were young women who prepared beautiful plates. We went there based on Trip Advisor's reviews. Definitely worth the trip; reservations a must.

Jordi, its owner/chef is the most pleasant person in Andorra la Vella. It is a very small and charming restaurant hidden in a small street. It offers an amazing variety of delicious plates!! Be aware that it gets full very soon and book in advance (it has only 7 tables)

We have dined at Jordi's twice and wanted to the third time but he was closed (El Crostó is closed on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, sniff...); instead we went to Can Manel as recommended by an acquaintance who is local and enjoys great gastronomy but if you are interested then read all about it on the review for Can Manel:-)...

Estuvimos en Diciembre 2011. Fuimos tras leer las críticas aquí. Coincidimos en que la comida está muy buena. El dueño tiene criterio y se nota que fue carnicero por su conocimiento de cortes y partes de la carne. Como aspectos negativos destacaré que al cantar la carta no sabes precios y puedes llevarte alguna sorpresa(20 euros mi foie a la... More

It is a little hard to find, around a corner and with only a small sign, and inside is one little room lined with pigs and vodka... More
