Is it pronounced as if in Spanish, with the "ll" being pronounced like a "y"? Or is it different in Catalan (which I don't speak) - for example, is the "ll" simply pronounced like an "l"?
Does everybody in Spain pronounce the name of the restaurant the same way, or do the Catalan speakers get it right and the non-Catalan speakers get it wrong?

Have you ever heard "Bee-gees" band?
Imagine that there are another band called "Boo-gees". And how would you call one of its members? A "Boo-gee", of course.
In the other hand, "El" is pronounced as the name of the letter "L" is.
And, in this case, there are not difference with catalan
So, "El Bulli" is "L-Boo-gee"
You'll say it almost perfect

Catalan "ll" is pronounced like Castilian "ll" - a hard "y" sound, so pronounce it as if it were "normal" Castilian Spanish.

The pronunication is a little easier than obtaining a reservation.
