ITALIAN RESTAURANT & BAR

Cucina Italiana a Ritmo di Rock ‘n’ Roll

BENZiNA finds its soul in what used to be a car mechanic’s shop in Barcelona, Sant Antoni. A cozy italian restaurant which lives to the timeless rhythm of rock ‘n’ roll.

Every experience at BENZiNA should start with a cocktail, either a classic or one of our own inspirations. Feel like something new? Don’t hesitate to ask, our team will mix a drink to your preferences.

Inspired by New York’s modern Italian gastronomic scene, our culinary direction driven by Head Chef Nicola Valle, is bold and original. Local and Italian ingredients infuse within a menu that is in constant evolution.

Music

BENZiNA ROCKS your dining experience with a light sprinkling of Zeppelin, Creedance, The Stones or some long forgotten gems from a time when Elton wasn’t yet a household name. Legends of Rock ’n’ Roll converge in a curated ensemble that celebrates the unrivalled sounds of the 60s & 70s. Whether you are enjoying a memorable meal in our restaurant or a relaxing drink in the comfort of your own home, this playlist is for you.
