With almost 50 years of history, La Yaya Amelia reopens its doors in the heart of Barcelona under the direction of chef Robinson Nanclares, creator of the Can Nanclares restaurants in Sant Joan Despí. This new project was born from the desire to revive the soul of traditional homemade cooking, with dishes that pay homage to timeless flavors.

A new chapter paying homage to tradition.

La Yaya Amelia by Nanclares

Since 1976

Just two streets away from the Sagrada Família, La Yaya Amelia by Nanclares is a cozy space where tradition and creativity come together — designed both for longtime locals and for travelers seeking a genuine dining experience, the kind you remember.

Our Kitchen

The menu blends iconic recipes such as rice dishes, traditional stews (fricandó, oxtail, lamb…) and cod, enhanced with subtle touches of Latin American and modern Mediterranean cuisine. All of it is crafted with a personal and authentic vision, the result of chef Nanclares’ years of experience in some of Barcelona’s finest restaurants.
