Reserved 22:00, we arrived at 21:45, the waitress kindly ask us to wait outside so that we can enjoy the night view. We luckily be invited inside at 21:58 and the waitress leave us 20mins to completely understand the menu. After we finished, we also got 10mins to decide who pay the bill. I'd give a 4 star to the rest part, the food is nice. If yiu don't care to be out in the cold, it good. read more

It's dark and dank inside but I thought the food would make up for it. Food was ok at best, my favorite of the bunch being the duck paella which legit just tasted like Filipino chicken adobo. I would no recommend since there are so many other option in the city and so many restaurants. read more

Paella is soo good! They will let you order paella for one person. Without a reservation, you could wait for a little while. Jeff took care of us big time! He likes what he does and does a damn great job! Highly recommended for paellas!!!!! read more

Literally the best place I've ever been. The service was remarkable and so was the food. Hands down the best paella you'll ever taste in your life. My family ordered the Thai noodles, seafood paella and duck paella. It was so good that we ordered another order of the seafood we also ordered the blackberry mojito. The paella dish served 2-3 people. There is a wait for the restaurant if you do not book a table ahead of time. They start reservations at 7PM for dinner. The place gives complimentary bailey on the house at the end of the meal. Which ended our meal on a sweet note. I would recommend this restaurant for those who would like to try paella for the first time. You won't regret it! read more

We had a wonderful dinner at arume last month ! I post my comment with a month of delay but I really want to share this GREAT adress ! We were 11 people, we arrived at the restaurant with 1 hour of delay (due to a problem with our cab). Everybody was very comprehensive, and they waited for us despite our delay. The food was delicious (the salmon and the paella were extraordinary), the staff really nice and fun, and the place really nice as well. I highly recommend this place ! read more

The food was very good, but the service in fact was the best I've seen in a long time! The staff was incredibly knowledgeable about the wine, and cheerful! Oh and try the duck paella, it's great! read more

Interesting combination of food, the scallops was so nice, we ordered two kinds of palleya, turned out felt too full for three people, but they are really nice. Cocktails aren't strong enough but nice to drink with food. read more

I don't bandy around such a title lightly. This place was delicious. We went twice, once for tapas on the chance of getting a table, and once having booked for a more sizeable meal. Both times were utterly delicious and service was cheerful and excellent. The tastes were unique and mouth watering and the cheapest wine was lovely too. I hate olives but my fiancé informed me even they were superb. Our visit to Barcelona was enhanced by these meals. We will remember them for a long time. Gracias read more

Arume - Dessert, delish. Galician sponge and strawberries and sorbet. - Mediterranean Near Me - Barcelona, B

We got super lucky with two bar seats without a reservation. At first we were surprised at the yelp reviews (5 perfect stars, really?) - but this place did not disappoint. The food was absolutely fantastic and well priced. We got two cocktails - the kiwi sake and the blackberry mojito both of which were very complex and delicious. For the entree we shared the chorizo tacos (a must - we almost fell off our bar stools because it really was that great) and for the main we had both kinds of paella. The two paella dishes (duck and seafood) were very different, and I would recommend trying both. For dessert we had the sorbet and sponge. All up our bill was only 66 euro ... a bargain for this quality of food! We could not stop gushing about this restaurant all the way home! read more

Arume - Mediterranean Near Me - Barcelona, B

My family and I had an wonderful meal at Arume last night. We ordered the duck paella and a seafood paella. Both were outstanding. I got the blackberry mojito and it was one of the best mojitos I ever had. My parents got red wine and they loved it. Our waitress who has short curly hair and a beautiful smile made us feel warm and welcoming. We didn't have reservations but we arrived right when they opened so we didn't have to wait at all. It was a great experience dining. read more

Food was good but have to give 1 star for service from Jeff. Not sure what his problem with us was, but was very rude but talked to tables with pretty girls only. Unfortunately service was so poor, we came from america. Wont be recommending this place to anyone. He should be fired. read more

Absolutely amazing. The food was great The black berry mojitos are the best thing I've ever tasted. Please go here when you are in Barcelona. Definitely try the duck paella. read more

If you want to go here, it's so incredibly amazing, that reservations are a must! We were completely happy sitting st the bar because we started out with one of their signature drinks, blackberry mojitos! Yum! Dinner was equally awesome! We shared their duck paella! The best paella we've ever tasted! The staff was fun and friendly! We will definitely return next time we're in Barcelona! read more

Absolutely superb! A friend found this place when we were visiting Barcelona and although it's pretty big, it was completely full - make sure you have a reservation. The sangria was top notch, I've never had a better octopus in my life and the paella was the real Catalonian experience! Prices are very reasonable and quality of both food and service - outstanding! A must for Barcelona visitors :) read more

The dinner we had was absolutely one of the best we have had so far on our European adventure(we are on day 12). First, they brought out delicious complimentary bread with olive oil in a test tube and a selection of olives, followed by goat cheese croquettes which were amazing. I ordered the arums paella which was absolutely filled either seafood and so delicious. My husband ordered a similar style dish which was rice with duck and mushrooms in a delectable brown sauce. After our two huge dishes plus the appetizer, we couldn't possibly have dessert, although they sounded amazing. Everyone around us ordered incredible looking cocktails as well. With the check, they brought us each an aperitif of something that was similar to baileys Irish cream but way better. Overall one of my favorite meals of all time. read more

This is an excellent restaurant, best to book as is very popular for good reason. Hipster decor inc a skeleton at the bottom of a well! Not an extensive menu, but then they clearly concentrate on doing what they do really well! And there is something for everyone inc veggies and they clearly label for allergies , doing smaller portions for kids. Their house signature cocktail the Blackberry mojito is 'banging'! This restaurant is not far from Rambla but you will need directions or sat navy to find as its down a narrow side road ! But definitely worth finding! Will definitely be back when we come back to this lovely city! read more

I wanted to get to get Seafood Paella? This was not the place. The rice was hard and was under cooked and the it was too salty. Coming here I also felt I was treated poorly by the manager. They sat us by the door and I saw other Asians sitting by the restroom while perfectly good seats segregated Asians from others. Even when I went to the bathroom they didn't want me to walk to close to the other side. The food wasn't great, was not worth the time and money. read more

Arume was the first paella I ever had in Barcelona. It was good but not amazing, and I've definitely found much better paella since then. The restaurant was cute and very busy, but it seemed a little touristy. The paella was a little expensive, especially for the size of the servings, but it's a highly rated restaurant and was a nice experience. I didn't dislike arume, but I will probably not return. read more

What an amazing gem of a restaurant! Found this place on our last night in Barcelona and so glad we did. The staff was so kind, our server especially she was a delight! Make sure to make a reservation, there was a line outside before it even opened. We had the seafood paella and both white and red sangrias, delicious! Great place, worth every penny! read more

I will keep this simple. If you are a group of more than two MAKE A RESERVATION. My friends and I got lucky when we went because a reservation canceled and we were able to get a spot in the dining room but before that we had been waiting for around 40 min and were told it was going to be longer. We got in around 10:30pm it closes at 11:30pm. The food was amazing and affordable. I shared two appetizers, the duck paella, desert, and two drinks for around 40 euros. Black Berry Mojito is a MUST. Highly recommend. read more

We had a 7pm reservation, but as with all other restaurants in Barcelona, they weren't ready to open on time. We waited a little over 10 minutes outside with a line forming behind us. I highly recommend making a reservation. Everyone at this restaurant was friendly from the hostess, to the servers and the manager. The food is very fresh, cooked and prepared to perfection, and plated nicely. The seafood paella is amazing and I loved their blackberry mojito. The only downside is this restaurant is in a non-Spanish ethnic (Indian/Pakistani/Middle Eastern) neighborhood...dirty and feels a little seedy compared to other areas of Barcelona. read more

Very cute spot. Loved it, great service and very good food. Would definitely come back here when I return to Barcelona. The Torrija dessert is delicious. The paella is very good too. They make really good drinks also. Def worth coming here. read more

If I come back to Barcelona, I'll have to make a return visit. The food was outstanding. I think it might have been the best food I had in Barcelona, which is saying a lot because there's so many good restaurants within the city. I had the milk lamb with cous cous and it was out of this world. I also had the baby scallops and those were delicious too. The food was so flavorful. It's a bit pricey but it's hard to complain when the food is just so good. I almost wanted to lick my plate. It was that good. Someone else in my part ordered the duck paella and I got to try it and that was very good too. Milk lamb though... would definitely order again. read more

This place is a joke. How do you not know how to make even halfway decent paella in Spain? Soggy, puffy, bland white grains of rice. Mussell which stayed closed shut after cooking (a tell-tale sign of bad shellfish). I've made better paella than this during a cooking class. I've had better rice from Rice-a-Roni than this. If you're the owner/manager and your reading this you need to periodically check your product, because your product is not what it should be. In addition to the bad tasting food, there was a big delay in getting me a menu to look at after I sat, because the bartender was not sure if there was enough room for me to eat in the end area of the bar. Even after the manager agreed to let me eat at the bar, there was still a big delay and I had to repeatedly ask for a menu. On a side note, the blackberry mojito did look really good. That would be the only reason I would come back. read more

The food is pretty and the presentation is beautiful. The food combinations are bold, and mine would best be described as interesting. They really made it pretty, and they were nice people. The service was ok. read more

Excellent service and amazing food. Their olive oil with their bread is the best I've ever had. We ordered duck paella and the veal. The veal was cooked perfectly- ordered medium which is more medium rare here - and had a superb sear. The staff was very friendly and we met the owner. I'm definitely going back here and would recommend to anyone read more

This is my 3rd time back. Since I found this place, I make it a point to come back. I recommend this restaurant to everyone who goes to Barcelona and they love it. BlackBerry mojito it a must try. The octopus, seafood pallea and duck pallea was amazing, both very different in taste. I'm don't like duck, but I love the duck pallea! Make reservations because there will be a long wait if you don't. read more

Wonderful good and drinks. Autentice service and great atmosphere. It's a must stop in Barcelona. Try to reserve in advance

I was so excited to come here for something different from the food I'd been stuffing my face with while in Barcelona. The menu was fun and had nice twists to typical dishes. The portions are abundant and the prices are very fair. We had the steak tartare (a huge amount), the Iberian pork carpaccio, Atlantic fish tempura, paella, Iberian pork ribs, and the cookie for dessert. Everything was really very tasty. Make a reservation over e-mail, it's super easy and the restaurant fills quickly. read more

Absolutely one of the most underrated and delicious spots in Barcelona. Best known for its blackberry mojitos and seafood paella, Arume is an unbelievable spot for anyone, local or traveling. The atmosphere is fun, with a friendly staff and a menu that will make your mouth water. Be sure to make a reservation here, as it gets very crowded as the evening goes on. If you're a seafood or meat lover, you will definitely be able to find something delicious on this menu. Start your meal with the infamous blackberry mojito - trust me, your mouth will explode with flavor. From the menu, my personal favorites were the friend octopus appetizer, the burratta salad and the seafood paella. SO so delicious, everything was flavorful and cooked and seasoned to perfection. Additionally, the duck paella is delicious -- a totally different taste and feel from the seafood paella (obviously) but still completely delicious. Didn't want it to ever end! While I didn't try either of these things, friends I was with tried the Iberian pork as well as the goat cheese croquettes, which are supposed to be out of this world. DO NOT MISS ARUME!!! read more
