El Nou Cal Caterí

Pi is not where every diner expects a Catalan–Basque seasonal meal, which makes the village setting part of the appeal. El Nou Cal Caterí is worth considering if the goal is a relaxed meal with regional character, confirmed signature dishes, and a warm, small-team feel. The draw is direct: Catalan–Basque seasonal cuisine in Pi, a $60 per person price point, and a cozy, rustic atmosphere.

Miren is the founder and head chef, with Manu Garcia as co-leader and partner. The restaurant’s identity reads clearly through its confirmed details: Catalan and Basque references, a familiar village restaurant atmosphere, and heartfelt hospitality from a small team. The Macarfi 7.2 Food Rating for 2026 is an external trust signal.

Build the meal around the confirmed Catalan–Basque signatures

The listed signatures point toward a kitchen with both hearty and lighter options: rabo de toro, tortilla de bacalao, tataki de atún, chuletón de vaca madurada, cordero a baja temperatura, cannelloni, cheese pies, salmon tartare, and homemade desserts. That range matters because it gives diners several confirmed reference points, from meat-led dishes to fish, tartare, and dessert.

The strongest reason to choose it is the cuisine-to-setting match. The cooking is Catalan–Basque and seasonal, and the room is warm, rustic, romantic, intimate, and welcoming. For a diner mapping Pi through food, that combination is the draw: familiar regional comfort with enough cross-regional personality to make El Nou Cal Caterí feel like a destination in its own right.

The room suits unhurried meals and low-pressure occasions

Atmosphere is one of the clearest strengths here. The restaurant is warm and rustic, with a familiar, welcoming feel, attention to detail, and heartfelt hospitality from a small team. That makes it a natural fit when the table wants comfort and a personal-feeling setting.

The hours give diners flexibility, with daytime and evening periods listed across the week and especially late closing times on some nights. A daytime visit may suit a relaxed stop in Pi, while evening makes sense when the occasion calls for a more intimate, drawn-out meal. Either way, the decision should be based on mood: daytime for a softer village rhythm, evening for a more deliberate sit-down.

Who should choose it, and who should skip it

Choose El Nou Cal Caterí if the priority is a characterful restaurant in Pi with a clear Catalan–Basque seasonal point of view and a cozy, rustic atmosphere. It is especially well suited to diners who want recognizable signatures such as rabo de toro, tortilla de bacalao, tataki de atún, chuletón de vaca madurada, cordero a baja temperatura, cannelloni, cheese pies, salmon tartare, and homemade desserts. Consider another option if you want a different cuisine or a dining experience built around details not confirmed.
