    Calamari

    I cannot recommend this place enough. We wandered in on the advice of our hotel at 11pm on a Saturday night, and it was absolutely packed. We had made the mistake of not making a reservation, but we got very lucky and a waiter squeezed us in in the corner after 20 mins, but first making sure we got some wine while we waited. Despite the place being absolutely hectic, our waiter made sure we had all the time we needed with him, checking to see how we were getting on with each glass of wine, would we like the same again or to try a different one and explained the flavours in each bottle. Everything sounded so good on the menu that we decided to let him choose some tapas for us, and were delighted we did so. The sardines with apple salsa was amazing, and I think our favourite was the salmon with a creamy italian cheese, I can't remember the exact. And order the cheesecake, you won't regret it! The bill came to 60 euro for 4 decent sized tapas, 5 glasses of wine, olives, bread and a slice of cheesecake for 2 people, which was very much worth it.

    This is a copy of my review of Bar Brutal, at the same location. Fantastic place with a short selection of simple yet very tasty food. From dried meats and tuna, smoked sardines, cheese selection and a daily special (bacalao with mashed potatoes the day we were there), the food is great! They also have an extensive wine collection. The large communal table in the front is surrounded by wine bottles. They have 2 bars and the first one looks fantastic. The only issue from my perspective, was the limited selection which made it more difficult to satisfy my children's "fragile" palate. A place to go!

    A-mazing!!!! Hands down the best place in town! It was so good that we had to come a second time! The staff is so nice and they really take the time to describe each bottle of wine. But even more impressive than their natural wine - which is apparently a step up from organic - is the food! We had smoked tuna, olives, autumn salad, smoked sardines, roasted pumpkin, steamed mussels and clams, and burrata cheese with tomatoes and basil. Everything was divine!!!! Interestingly the vegetarian dishes were my favorites. If you have to pick one thing on the menu, I recommend the buratta! It melts in your mouth! We ate it so fast that I forgot to take a photo. A close second was the roasted pumpkin. The place itself is very casual and has a hip atmosphere. But you must make a reservation if you want to have dinner there. You won't need one for lunch. This is THE place to go in Barcelona!

    Steak Tartar

    This place was very interesting. I actually thought it was a wine shop because of its entrance and walked around trying to find the place using the Yelp map aimlessly. The wines are all unfiltered and natural. I had the steak tartar which was minced not chopped. It was flavourful but an odd texture. I also had the scallops which were so tiny for 9 Euros it really didn't seem worth it to order. Service was great. I enjoyed the experience

    Found this small hole in the wall by luck. So we didn't have reservations l waitress let us sit at the Bar. We didn't know what to order. Our server Borja was awesome told him the kind of Wine we wanted. Picked out a nice white. We ordered a few tapas and he had them for us within 5minutes. We weren't planning on ordering Desert but Borja started telling us and they sounded great. When we return to Barcelona. We are totally coming back here. The vibe was great my kind of spot.

    Cured beef and eggplant

    Had an amazing experience here. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The tapas were divine - we had the cured beef, porchetta and eggplant. The cured beef just melts in your mouth. The porchetta was served with fig jam and 2 slices of bread underneath, soaking up the sweet and salty juices from the porchetta and the fig jam. The eggplant was paired with a mint purée, which made it very refreshing. The olive bread was delicious as well. This place is tucked away in a small alley near Picasso museum.

    You want a table, make a reservation! This place is popular! A cosy restaurant with good service and good food!

    This is a small but perfectly wonderful kitchen and restaurant. Love the atmosphere, and I sincerely don't know what us not perfect with today's meal...

    Randomly stumbled upon this place when we (sadly) learned that Cal Pep isn't open for dinner on Saturdays.

The foie gras was absolutely unforgettable--rich, delicate, and simply to die for. The sangria was equally exceptional, fresh, balanced, and dangerously delicious. But what makes this place truly special is something that can't be captured on a menu. The atmosphere, the warmth, the way time seems to slow down... words simply can't do it justice. If you're visiting Barcelona, don't just come here for dinner. Come here to fall in love with the food, the city, the moment, or maybe even someone sitting across the table. An experience I'll never forget.

    My husband and I arrived to Barcelona late in the evening. We had read reviews that the food scene…read moreextended well into the night, so we decided that even though it was 10:30pm, we would still walk over to Tapeo and see if we had any luck getting seating. Well, the restaurant was cute and cozy with a great ambiance. With luck on our side, we found two seats at the bar and quickly ordered drinks. We ordered a pitcher of the sangria (because why not?). The sangria was delicious, refreshing, and made to order. It was definitely more authentic than what we're getting in America. We ordered the patatas bravas, tempura asparagus, the octopus, and the steak. It all came out as it became available. We couldn't decide what our favorite was, to be honest. We ordered an ice cream sandwich for dessert and quickly requested our bill. We didn't want to hold the staff up as we noticed they were cleaning the establishment and people were finishing up. Overall, what a great experience for our first meal in Barcelona! Cute and hidden gem.

We wanted something that felt more local and authentic and this place delivered. We stumbled in looking for a light lunch and a glass of wine. There were locals dining in the front room, no gimmicky photos outside, and it immediately felt like a good choice. We grabbed one of the barrel tables, and our server Francisco asked if we trusted him. Of course we said yes - and I'm so glad we did. He brought us a white wine I had never heard of, and it was excellent. Then he brought us a cheese to try that I didn't think I was going to like, but it was great too. I completely forgot to take photos before we started eating, so all I have is the aftermath - which probably says everything. The chicken wings were incredible and surprisingly boneless, which made them easy to eat. The tuna tartare was excellent, and we also had the tomato bread and olives. Super casual, great service, and the best food we've had so far in Barcelona. Exactly the kind of place we were hoping to find. Highly recommend.

The vibe is lively and fun and service consistently good
