I was visiting Barcelona for the weekend and is a good Peruvian. I decided to stop by and try this…read moreplace since Gaston Acurio is one of my favorite chefs! I was able to get a reservation online, which was very helpful so we didn't have to wait when we got there. The place is nice and has a lot of seating. There are multiple proving decorations based on the coast area, which makes it feel like a restaurant in Lima. We ordered the ceviche, causa acevichada, lomo saltado, ají de gallina, and cau cau de mariscos (our waiter told us the cau cau would be picante de mariscos, which wasn't true so that was a bit disappointing). The ceviche was incredible! Very fresh and true to the original limeña recipe. The causa acevichada is what took the crown!!! The causa was the most delicious one I've ever had, and the acevichado sauce was just like back in Lima. The cau cau was okay, nothing out of this world. The ají wasn't great, which was unfortunate as I have tried ají de gallina at other Acurio restaurants and they were so much better. The lomo saltado was spectacular. The sauce was perfect and the meat was cooked just as it should be. The potatoes were outstanding! I also got a chilcano de maracuyá which was very good. Overall, I'd definitely recommend coming here when in Barcelona. Please do try the causa acevichada and lomo saltado - you will not be disappointed!

We're a huge fan of Nikkei food (Japanese-Peruvian) and our hotel was just next door to this…read morerestaurant so we decided to give this a try. We had eaten at Pakta on our last trip to Barcelona and it was amazing, so we were excited to try another Nikkei restaurant. We ate around 2 pm on a Saturday and the place was pretty empty so we didn't have to wait for a table and got service right away. The decor is modern and minimal with a lot of wood, big windows and natural light. Some of the dishes can be a bit pricey, but we were trying to have a light lunch so we shared 3 different dishes and were satisfied with our meal. Compared to a lot of other places in Barcelona, this place is definitely on the more expensive side, but you also pay for location and convenience right next to the beach. The quality of the food was excellent, as was the plating/presentation. Quinoa Salad with Grilled Calamari (12€) - I liked this dish a lot and would get it again - it was one big piece of calamari, grilled, and filled with quinoa and some vegetables like red peppers, edamame. It was light, satisfying and tasty and a pretty decent size for the price. The calamari was super fresh and the texture was not too chewy - I'd recommend this dish! Shrimp Maki (16€) - For a sushi roll, this was pricey. It was delicious, but I don't think it was worth 16 euros. There were 2 skinny rolls, and it was delicious but expensive. The avocado was fresh, and we loved the combination of wasabi combined with the aji panca. I had never had that kind of mixture combined for the dipping sauce and it was a perfect spicy complement. Cod Ceviche Style (19.50€) - We really loved this dish too and would get it again - the portion was a decent size, the cod was fresh and flaky, and the leche de tigre sauce was great, as was the charred wok-fried bok choy. I'd recommend this one too. Overall, a great experience - the servers were attentive and nice, and we even got 2 small complimentary truffles to end our meal. Some of the dishes are on the pricier side, but it was affordable. When you're tired of eating tapas and potatoes and ham, come eat here for something a little lighter and with combinations of flavors you probably can't find at most places. This is probably one of the better and nicer places you'll find right by the beach.

For the second time in so many trips to Barcelona, this turned out to be the best meal. I really…read morelike seafood paella, and this place does not disappoint. Came here on my first night in town. Made a reservation online - easy. This time Carballeira was really close to my hotel, so easy to get to. Nice, pleasant service and a stylish atmosphere. I was greeted by name (nice!) and seated where I could see both the dining room and the open (and sparkling clean) kitchen. Being a paella amateur enthusiast, it was fun getting to watch the kitchen make paella (I picked up some nice tips). Really nice place. I had the pan con tomate (Barcelona, of course?) and the seafood paella. Both times I've been here I have read that the dish is for two. Both times I have offered to pay for two people just to have the paella. Both times I've been turned down and told that they would make it for one. So nice. For a solo business traveler many times that does not happen. Great of the establishment to do so. I wish there would be a little more in the paella, but what is there is so tasty! Delicious seafood paella. The best I've had in the city. You will not be disappointed. Nice flan for dessert - perfect ending. Go check out Carballeira's!

First thing to know about this place is better to have a reservation. That will be the first thing…read moreto be asked as someone steps in. Although, we saw people without reservations being seated. Maybe if they are not busy, walk ins are acceptable. We were here on a Tuesday at 1pm, when they open. It is a nicer, upscale, sit down and take your time kind of restaurant. Seems like dinner time maybe busier than the lunch time but we liked how quiet and not too crowded when we were here for lunch. We ordered Octopus in Galician style, assorted seafood, Iberian acorn-fed Ham and charcoal grilled vegetables. The Octopus in Galician style was the best. I can't believe how soft these octopus are! It does not feel like octopus at all and the seasoning goes well with the steamed potatoes it came with. Charcoal grilled vegetables and assorted seafood were also good. The shrimps were a bit hard to shell but other than that, no complaints. Full of ocean flavor in each of them! Iberian acorn-fed Ham was a bit disappointing though. I could get very similar tasting jamon iberico at any grocery store at fraction of the price. Probably should have stuck with seafood at a seafood restaurant!

We stumbled across this little Italian restaurant as we walked around Barcelona one evening earlier…read morethis month. The food and service were amazing. The minty hand muddled lemonade was delicious and refreshing after a day in the Barcelona heat. The Las Sorrentinas salad was delicious and big enough to share. For entrees, we decided to get both the chicken and meat lasagna and share. Both were amazing, couldn't pick a favorite of the two. Our server was genuinely appreciative of our business and attentive but not annoyingly so. You could tell the food was all made fresh in house with care. I would highly recommend this place and will go again when in Barcelona for sure!

We had heard good things about this place and after reading their menu with fresh pasta, we all wanted to give it a try. The restaurant is very classy with nice lighting, decor, and a cozy feel. I took the waiter's recommendation and got the egg dough sorrentinas with the green pesto sauce. Two of my friends ordered his other recommendation, which was the malfiditas pasta. The dish I got was good, but I kind of wished I had got something else because the egg dough is mostly a meat center, and I didn't get as much of the caramelized onion or mushroom flavor. The ravioli also seemed as though they had cooked it, placed it in the dish, and left it for a few minutes, because the pasta had started to get gooey on top. I did enjoy the pesto sauce. Overall, I really liked this restaurant and I would love to return sometime when I'm back in Barcelona. I think I would rather go for the fresh pastas next time and of course check out some of their other sauces!!

What a gem! Yes, it's a bit touristy -- but in the fun, festive, "you're on vacation and loving…read morelife" kind of way. Taverna El Glop wraps you up in its warm, lively atmosphere the second you walk in. We were a group of four, and from start to finish, we had an awesome time. The open kitchen is a great touch -- you can watch the chef in action, which adds to the energy and makes the whole experience feel more connected and authentic. We shared a bunch of dishes, and everything was on point. The paella was rich and delicious -- exactly what we came for. The patatas bravas were crispy, creamy, and gone in seconds, and the shishito peppers were the perfect salty, snacky starter. Of course, we had to get a pitcher of sangria (okay, maybe two), which was fruity, refreshing, and just strong enough to keep things festive. The space itself has this great, rustic charm -- complete with checkered tablecloths and even an old cigarette machine near the bar (haven't seen one of those since I was a kid -- aren't those banned in the U.S. now?). I don't smoke -- smoking sucks -- but it added a bit of unexpected nostalgia and character. Service was excellent. I always make a point to be friendly, ask people their names, and introduce myself -- and that's usually met with warmth. It definitely was here. The staff were quick, kind, and seemed to enjoy the place as much as we did. Personally, I loved it. It's the kind of place you remember -- not because it's fancy or trendy, but because it's fun, flavorful, and full of heart. Highly recommend if you're in the area.

The service is also great. The manager (Aptiom) even allowed us to dine in even without reservation. When we saw the wait list...it is long! MUST TRY THIS AWESOME PLACE! For food quality, service, and ambience i will rate this experience with 4.8.
