This restaurant was recommended by our hotel concierge and it did not disappoint. They do t take reservations so be prepared to wait a little, it's worth it. Our server was excellent and helped us with our selections. They always have daily specials of a wide variety of tapas. We ordered patatas bravas, pernil ibérico, and an assortment of other tapas. Every dish had great presentation and the flavors were so good. I can't say which dish I liked best because everything was so good. This is a small restaurant and gives a very down home relaxed feeling. If you're in Barcelona, you definitely wanna check this place out. read more

An absolute must if you're in town. I loved this restaurant so much when I visited back in Oct 2024, that I went back again this past July (vs trying something new). La Flauta has so many menu options and something for everyone. The beef tenderloin montaditos, patatas bravas, goat cheese and ham salad, and spaghetti carbonara are my favorites here! Note I don't eat seafood so I'm not one to ask about it. The ambience is lovely and service was wonderful during both visits. They are also reasonably priced and you will get full without having to pay a lot! Good quality and big portions... Highly recommend!! read more

First night in Barcelona and Paco, our AirBnB host suggested we visit La Flauta for tapas. We were very pleased with this restaurant. The service was top notch and the menu was plentiful with many fresh and wonderful offerings. Try the fried artichokes; also their sardines. Great atmosphere too-Will not disappoint! read more

La Flauta was our first stop in Barcelona! The pictures & reviews looked promising but when we got here, the service wasn't the best. We were ready to order and the server walked away from us as we were about to tell her what we wanted to order lol... Anyways, we DID end up being able to order and try these items: -razor clams -prawns clam & mussels platter -bolognese Mini hamburger Cod caprese White champagne sangria 1/2 pitcher Creamy mushroom Pear ravioli Bravas potatoes -seafood salad This is a tapa-styled restaurant and everything came out super quick after ordering. My favorite was the pear raviolis & my least favorite would have to be the white fish ceviche? I didn't enjoy the flavor profile on it. We had ordered a salad but unfortunately it did not end up coming and server didn't write it down, though nodded at the time of ordering. Overall, the food tasted super fresh and decently priced, imo. I guess the only thing is the service that I didn't like but it's kind of the theme so far at other places in Barna. Pretty nice & modern interior, well air conditioned, and bathrooms were clean. read more

A victim of its tic-tok and internet presence with influencers. I felt rushed to order and the wait staff had an impatient tone. I speak enough Spanish to be understood. The waiter challenged my preference for dry "seco" wine. The staff is not trained- you do not eat on the plate an entree is served: grilled clams, shrimp, and mussels. The quarter rabbit was right temperature, flavorless, the dipping sauce helped. The foie gras on top of the "broken egg" was barely appetizing as it was presented. It ruined a delicacy. No wine could salvage this atrocity. Franchised and suffering from its popularity with a certain demographics. Cautionary Note: do not expect a Michelins Bib gourmand ranking. read more

Seafood was so fresh and enhanced naturally by the cooking method but really can taste the sea in each bite. From razor clams to the shrimp skewers, just super fresh and delicious. Had our well-before teenage kids and they appreciated the cuisine. The food came out super fast and service attentive. Well worth the walk from our hotel in Sarria. Our faves were the beef tenderloin flauta, shrimp & calamari flauta. read more

Good foot and better service. We had the menu de Dias and it was so much food. We had house paella and pork bone, fish, or pork medallions. The wine that came with the mean was very good too and the flan dessert was light, sweet and full of caramel. The price was very cheap for that much food. The only complaint was that the cook really liked salt. Everything was a bit too salty. I would go back to try the tapas. read more

I'm in Barcelona only for a week for work and I went with some new friends to this restaurant and the food was exceptional! The service was fast and personable and the ambiance very lively. We went there and we were seated immediately but as soon as we finished the line for the restaurant was already around the block. Apparently this place is a popular restaurant not just for tourists but locals alike! Also the have 5 locations all over Barcelona but this location was the best one! I definitely highly recommend checking it out it is awesome! Oh and the Sangria is yummy! read more

Love this place. Good food. Good service. Good value. Long line to get in, but moves fast.

Came here right at the open time, wait is not needed. Me and my wife ordered Fagara toast, potato omelette with foie gras, Fagara toast, potato omelette with Fagot, calamari, razor clams, and a few other dishes. Everything tastes great (with wine ) . We saw 2 local ladies ordered lamb shanks lunch sets (appetizer salad, lamb shank and dessert). It seems a good choice too~ After we finished while we walked out, the restaurant is packed with waiting lines outside. Great food attract people to come. Thumbs up and keep good work read more

After a long tour day, we wanted good food but not too much to call it a day. We found this restaurant in Goggle and decided to give it a try. They offer both inside and outside seating and it was busy when we got there around 7pm. The weather was nice that we decided to sit outside (they have heaters which is nice). They have a selection of tapas and they are mostly known for their montaditos and flautas (sandwiches). We ordered a variety of tapas and desserts and everything was delicious, fresh and made to order. The sliders and the torreja were my favorite and of course we had to try their churros! read more

AMAZING SEAFOOD: Barcelona is known for great seafood because of the local fishing industry but not all restaurants are equal in sourcing the freshest catches or preparing them perfectly. La Flauta excels in both. The freshness of the seafood ranks among the best restaurants in Barcelona and they will NOT overcook your seafood! Start with the Mini Barbeque tapa which includes prawns, clams, and mussels. The prawns were the freshest and tastiest I've ever had! When you break the head off, don't discard it, suck the yummy goodness out of the head first. This is only a great idea when prawns are super fresh. Also consider getting the Creamy Mushroom tapa and the wonderful Codfish with Honey Alioli tapa. The cod fish was cooked perfectly and the sweet And creamy dressing paired wonderfully with the cod meat. The Beef Tenderloin with Foie is a decadent treat and will make your mouth water before your first bite. Another great aspect of La Flauta is the prices are reasonable compared to the most touristy places. When I was there it was filled with locals. It is an older crowd because it isn't a cheap meal but it provides great value for the high level cuisine they serve you! read more

It's a very busy but spacious restaurant. Great and fast service! These were what we ordered: Razor clams - a little disappointing, the clams themselves were fresh and the flavor was great, but the ones I ate had tiny pieces of the shell Broken egg omelette - so moist and savory, had mushrooms Potatas bravas I saw other tables order grilled shrimp and they looked delicious, wish I had tried that! read more

Open late, wonderful tapas. Enjoyed ordering from both the Spanish menu and English menu. Many tapas to choose from. All were good, but my absolute favorite was the squid served with bread, romesco sauce and artichokes. So delicious! They were out of mussels, but the razor back clams were also delicious. We appreciated the house wine, fresh ingredients and skilled chefs. Waiter left much to be desired getting orders wrong, missing items ordered and never refilling the wine or water glasses. Prices were very reasonable. Most tapas were between 3-6 Ę. Razor back clams were most expensive at 11 Ę. Late night eating, but that is the Spanish way. When in Barcelona, eat like one! Delicioso. read more

Opened 3 months ago. This place has become one of my favorites already! Dishes are a lot like it's sister restaurants except this location added a few new additions. The duck, chicken with chimichurri, Jamon y queso (ham & cheese) sandwiches...everything is delicious and consistent. Wait was about 10 mins, service is friendly and efficient. Super chill vibes, perfect for family and friends gathering! My favorite part is they have their pastry chef by the front window, you can see all desserts in actions! read more

This place is a great lunch spot. It has an outdoor seating area on the street so it's great for people watching. They have quite extensive menu of different kinds of tapas. I will also say that for the quality of this place, there's definitely less of a wait compared to the places around it. We got seated in around 10 minutes for their outdoor seating area. We ordered sangria, shrimp, steak on bread, and a big plate of ham. Definitely a delicious lunch. It wasn't the most stand out in Barcelona, but in a pinch this place is a great tapas option. read more

One of the best tapas that even the locals would come here to try. Highly recommend to check out this place for following reasons: 1. No need to make reservations ahead of time 2. Takeouts available which means you can come back another and just take out the tapa that you like as late night snack 3. Price is decently priced for seafood tapa fans 4. Everything is shareable 5. If all of the above doesn't satisfy your dinner requirements, you must must order the the grilled prawns with cuttlefish. The prawns were juicy, grande, evenly grilled for that little smoked flavour on top. We came back a second night just to order this as takeouts. read more

La Flauta - Mandatory grilled prawns; if you can't choose btw anything else, get this one. You won't regret it. It's exactly as seen in this picture - Spanish Near Me - Barcelona, B

Good tapas and open late if you've found yourself hungry later in the night. We were seated right away. The service was ok. The restaurant has a very pretty interior but is also very bright late at night. There are also a few tables for dining outside. They are a sister restaurant to Cerveseria Catalana so they share the same tapas menu items. read more

If you want to eat with the locals and enjoy some of the best tapas in town, look no further. I lived in Barcelona for two years, noticed a line outside this little restaurant two blocks from my apartment, and quickly discovered why wait! I started taking all my out-of-town guests here, and they loved it! I still recommend it to folks traveling to Barcelona and always here great positive feedback! We definitely will be visiting this little local gem upon returning to BCN! read more

La Flauta came highly recommended by multiple sources, and the long line outside this tapas restaurant attested to its popularity! The extensive menu featured a list of creative tapas (small plates) and, of course, flautas, which were little sandwiches built on mini baguettes. We tried a hot flauta with Camembert, anchovies, and mushrooms, and the melty, unctuous camembert paired perfectly with the umami flavor of the anchovies and mushrooms. For our tapas selections, we tried the Codfish topped with a honey "allioli" sauce, baked to form a nice crust; a fluffy round omelette made with cod, mushrooms, and beans; a grilled octopus tentacle with mashed potatoes; and a simple dish of grilled asparagus and mushrooms. Everything was quality and delicious, but the standout dishes were the Grilled prawns/clams/mussels (especially the juicy, head-on red prawns) and the Grilled Iberian "Pen" and "Secret," which were two cuts of fatty Iberian pork grilled to perfection and served with potato wedges and chimichurri sauce on the side. La Flauta was definitely worth the hype and was a step above other tapas bars, and the prices here were super affordable too! read more

The wait for Cerveceria Catalana right across the corner was well over an hour at 8pm on a Friday night, so we popped into La Flauta and our party of three were seated right away. What's not to love here? Fresh, fast food with great service. We returned several times during our time in Barcelona. Our faves were the prawns skewer montadito - large prawns and squid grilled on a skewer, Russian Salad with fresh tuna, patatas bravas, Spanish omelette with onion, Iberian ham. But you really can't go wrong. Deserts are incredible and really cheap for what you get (2.95 each). The torrija's are a mushy soft interior and a crusty, sugary exterior that tastes like French toast with crema Catalan on top. It is absolutely lovely. Have it with a cortardo. Reservations recommended for larger groups. Takes cards and cash. read more

Our experience started out a bit sketchy but quickly turned around. The waiter didn't know the difference between soda water and tonic. Started to argue with us but then went and talked to the bartender and brought soda water for our cocktails. The food was absolutely delicious. There were six of us and all of us were very happy with everything we ordered. I definitely would recommend and will go back! read more

If you are traveling through Barcelona, I recommend you dine in at La Flauta. La Flauta has delicious tapas, fresh seafood, fusion style Catalan dishes, highly sought by locals and visitors, especially Asian countries. Open late till 1am, busy every day, great for couples to large groups, accepts all major credit cards including AX and service was excellent. We dined here several times and this will be our goto place when we visit Barcelona. Best time to dine in is before 7pm. Cheers! read more

I was only in Barcelona for 3 days. But this was the best meal I had while I was there. There was a bit of a line when we first got there, but our group of 3 got in quickly. We had been kind of snacking on street food for a couple of days and were in need of a solid meal. This was exactly what we needed. We all agreed that our favorite item was the Honey Cod. We also had eggplant chips, which were addictive, charred peppers, beef tenderloin, shrimp and mussels and several other things. Everything was excellent. We finished the meal with churros and were stuffed when we left. The service was fast and good. I highly recommend it. read more

Per a suggestion from Tatiana, American Airlines Flight Attendant, La Flauta was a fabulous dining experience. When we arrived, there was a line out the door to wait for seating. The 30-minute wait was well worth it. We started out with the Huevos Revueltos con Jamon...Soooooo good. From there we had the Shrimp and Bacalao, and a few other small dishes. Everything was fantastic and had a flavor of its own. The ambiance was very nice and made for an unforgettable experience in Barcelona. read more

Come before 9pm cause it gets busy. Staff speak English. English menu is available. Excellent service. Tomato Bread (3.10)- well known. Good to help you feel full. Muntadet de Broquesta de llagostins 4.55 (skewewrs of shrimp and calimari)- each piece is so small, so tender. Its a wonder how it was cooked. Get this! Cod with aioli- so soft. The aioli adds such a richness and there's a berry spread. Grilled shrimp, mussell, clams- extremely fresh. Well cooked and cleaned extremely well. Huevos Rotos Con Foie (broken egg, mushroom, Foie Gras) 8.10- wow. Each ingredient is cooked so well and soft. read more

Amazing evening with great and adventurous food! The staff made excellent recommendations for my favorite tapas: the jamon plate, manchego, and bread with tomatoes; these were so good and are absolutely necessary as a part of any tapas meal in Barcelona. The "house" wines are amazing and are 3 euro per glass! The sangria is made to order and is a killer combination of Spanish wine and fruit/possibly liquor. Other favorites include the fried calamari, which are by far less fried than in the states and incredibly tasty, and the beans with jamon and shrimp (sounds odd but very flavorful and smokey), and also the patatas bravas, which come in an incredible sauce. The crunchy camembert (fried cheese in nuts) was the only less than amazing dish. For dessert, we got the three texture chocolate, which was a chocolate mousse-esque bar, super tasty! And also the borachin, which was like a creme brulee atop a rum cake, also very good! The cheque came out to be far less than anticipated for what a great evening it was, highly recommend! read more
