I have been wanting to try this place for over a year but it's always so busy…read more During tapa a tapa people are off doing that so we popped in on a Tuesday during lunch time. There were not a lot of people there and we got a good seat at the bar so we could pick and order easily. The food was OK, I liked a cream cheese crab thing with melted cheese on bread and probably would have eaten another, but after my first 3 tapas a nasty little creepy crawly thing was on the counter walking along. It wasn't a roach, it had two eyes together. I tried to knock it off but it suctioned itself to the bar! It stole my appetite and had me running out of there! Food is inexpensive. Service is OK but I'm completely grossed out by the bug, whatever it was! Glass of wine, a beer and 5 tapas came out to about €15.60. However, if I'm craving tapas, I'll likely make a reservation at Guria Taberna instead so we can get a table inside.

Decent pintxos, good lunch, but not the most memorable spot…read more We stumbled into Txirimiri while wandering around El Born looking for a quick lunch. The place had a welcoming vibe, and pintxos were on offer, so we figured why not? Overall, it was a good lunch, but the selection of pintxos was pretty limited - not nearly as robust, creative, or flavorful as a few other places we'd tried earlier in the week across town. Nothing was bad, but nothing really stood out either. Service was okay - efficient but not particularly warm or engaging. You definitely get the sense this is a spot that sees a lot of tourists, and the staff may be a little weary of that constant flow. At the table next to us, a group of fellow American travelers were all eating burgers and fries... which kind of summed it up. That said, the location is convenient, and if you're nearby and want a quick bite in a casual setting, it's not a bad choice. Just don't expect to be blown away. 4 stars

Stumbled upon this local tapas bar in Barcelona and it quickly became one of the highlights of our…read moretrip. We ended up going two nights in a row -- and would absolutely do it again. The two bartenders -- who seem to be a couple -- are the heart of the place. He's got a dry, hilarious sense of humor that sets the tone, and together they make everyone feel like a regular. That said, if you're easily offended or don't appreciate a bit of cheeky banter, this might not be your spot. But for those who enjoy a fun, unfiltered vibe -- you'll love it here. As for the food -- wow. We had the tortilla with meat (not sure what it was, but it was delicious), the artichoke tempura (I would fly across the world again just for these), the fried eggplant, and the meat with chimichurri. Everything was fresh and flavorful. Great food, unforgettable personalities, and a place that feels alive. Take a handheld fan because it is hot - especially during summer.

The meal came with shits if baileys to end the night and the house wine was smooth and reasonably priced. This was a superb meal. My wife and I each liked 8/9 of the different Tapas and both loved the chorizo. This place is tight but has lots of charm. The food is great and the servers make it work. Definitely a great value and as I said worth a wait.

Never having been in Barcelona, we asked the concierge at our hotel for a dinner recommendation…read more Zarautz was highly recommended, so we gave it a try. Wow, did not disappoint! While the restaurant does not look super fancy, it's got a pleasant atmosphere and a nice decor. We walked over around 6:15, which is early for dinner, even for us. The server explained that they had some tapas available, but the kitchen didn't open until 7. We said we'd be back and he booked us a table on the spot. (lucky us as they had a party of 16 locals and the remaining tables were booked except ours!) We wandered to another place for an outside glass of wine while we waited. At 7, we went back and explained Uncle D's shellfish allergy to Mark, our server and asked about recommendations for things we might try that would work for the allergy. He was so kind and advised against certain items that had shellfish or were cooked in the same oil as shellfish. Bless him! We shared the tapas of a pulled pork sandwich, (in a small bun), and a cheese plate with cubes of cheese in olive oil with black salt flakes, and finished with sharing a main course of oxtail, which we were told takes 32 hours to make! All were delicious and we were thrilled we had gone there. The second and final night in Barcelona we were tired, didn't want to have to figure out where to go that might not be too close and decided to go back. This time we booked a table about 45 minutes before we wanted to be there. Lucky there was a table for 2! When we walked in, we were recognized and greeted like family! Mark even remembered our names, shellfish allergy and the wine we had enjoyed the night before which we wanted again. We ordered the same cheese tapas as it was so delicious, along with the chorizo casserole in apple cider, with a main course of the sirloin steak with potatoes and padron peppers. The steak dish was brought out before the chorizo dish accidentally. We opted at that point to have the chorizo dish after. Steak was cooked a perfect medium rare, potatoes crispy outside and soft inside and the padron peppers tasty but mild. Again, absolutely delicious! By the time we were halfway through the steak dish, we knew we had no room in our tummies for the chorizo dish. We asked if it was possible to cancel the chorizo dish, but if they had already started cooking it then it would be ok. Mark was gracious and canceled it for us. At the end of the meal, Mark brought us a glass of a local liqueur that was wonderful. The food, the service, the atmosphere... and both nights local folks enjoying along with tourists, all fabulous. All that to say... if you have the chance to go to this wonderful restaurant, do it!
