Barcelona has been on our list for a while…read more We had a fantastic meal. The whole fish was outstanding and worth the visit on its own. We also shared the bacon-wrapped dates, patatas bravas, crispy cod, jamón & manchego croquetas, and albóndigas, paired with Tempranillo and rosé. Every plate that hit the table was packed with flavor. Unfortunately, the service was a completely different story. After our initial order was taken, our server disappeared for a long stretch. We had planned to order additional dishes, but she never came back to check on us. By the time we finally got the rest of our order in, the timing of the meal was completely off. Three of our six tapas arrived after we finished the whole fish--no joke. We were told to order the fish first and the tapas afterward because the fish takes 30-45 minutes to prepare. What we learned is that Barcelona doesn't operate like many other tapas restaurants where you can order as you go. If you want your tapas before the larger items, make sure you get those ordered before your server walks away. It wasn't just us - it was the tables around us as well. I noticed service mentioned in other reviews, and based on our experience, it's something worth knowing before you go. Barcelona has an incredible kitchen, a great wine list, and a fun atmosphere. If they could consistently match the quality of the food with the quality of the service, this would be one of our favorite restaurants in Denver. We'll likely be back for the food, but hopefully next time the front-of-house experience catches up to what's coming out of the kitchen.

The view is incredible and we had a corner table. Amazing!! The food was fresh, fun and presented beautifully. We tried an array of dishes and every single one was a delight.

We were about to get a last minute reservation for Saturday - although the bar seating is nice and cozy and usually always has spots open. The host Chase was super friendly and welcoming. He sat us a bit early, and he offered some of his recommendations. Most of the dishes are made to share. We started with the olives and iberico jamon. The jamon melts in your mouth! For steak, it's all about your preference. We opted for the dry-aged cowboy. Super smooth and not very fatty compared to some Chicago steaks we've had recently. Don't skip on the jamon fat fries or the sunchokes! We were too full for dessert but everything looked so delicious - and they use seasonal ingredients!

The restaurant is modern, sleek, open, and well lit. The service is out of this world. Everyone is falling over themselves to help you, though not in a gross way. I had two pastas (you could have either a full pasta dish or a half, and I chose to have two halves). I had the goat cheese gnudi (lamb ragu, fennel pollen, pecorino). Half portion was 14, whole 28. It was rich, meaty, and delish. I also had the mushroom pappardelle (pickled pearl onion, crispy maitake, sheep ricotta, dill). Half 18, full 29. Rich, filling, luxurious. My friend had the duck, which she loved. She can't eat red meat and it was prepared in such a way it almost made her feel like she was eating red meat again. My friend's husband had the scallops as an app (we tasted them too, they were decadent). Then he had the paella, again, a crowd pleaser. We ate every bite of all of it. We had several complex, amazing cocktails. Not the run of the mill. Ingredients that are more unique than the average spot for sure. A lot of gin and absinthe. We had one called Ecto cooler (rum, lychee, kiwi coriander shrub) that we all enjoyed immensely. It's not cheap. For all three of us, with our decadent entrees and multiple alcoholic drinks, as well as dessert and apps, was around 450 with the appropriate tip (I did tip heavy because the service was so spectacular). But I also appreciate this restaurant pays a living wage and charges a small uncharge to allow for this. Amazing experience. And on a pedestrian walkway and near clocktower cabaret, so you can have a great evening.

Tapas are such a great option for anyone who likes menu sampling, and this place is also on a certified gluten free restaurant list (per my friend and dining partner) for anyone that might be curious. We came in for an early-ish lunch on a Saturday and were seated on their patio right away. The area was super spacious and felt private at the table we had despite being surrounded by other people. It was a beautiful day so the patio was very comfy; I hate being too hot or too cold when eating, so this was perfect. We took a very long time catching up, but our waitress was extremely friendly and patient. She was great. We ordered a couple of dishes to start (tacos and a salad) and chatted away until we chose our next plates. Each dish that came out was very tasty, beautifully presented, and arrived very quickly. My favorites were the dates and crème brûlée dishes lol. I've had a massive sweet tooth lately so I found these extra yummy. Price was pretty reasonable for two people; our bill came out to be about $75, and that included two mixed drinks as well as all of the food seen here (though don't be fooled because we got two plates of the dates!). I wish there were more places like this up by me, but I do have a couple of very good reasons to frequent Colorado Springs, so I'm positive I'll be back. I'm looking forward to making my way through the menu and excited to try everything!

So much so, that I returned a few months later with a friend before watching the Harry Potter play at DPAC. And AGAIN last night with my husband, sister, mom and her dance instructor and best friend. They are visiting from Atlanta to compete in a ballroom dance competition this weekend. Our waiter was impressive and he managed us well! First drinks, then specials and a handful of tapas while our last guest arrived. Followed by a full on tapas conquest to try every single dish (without seafood). The staff brought several dishes at a time, ensuring we weren't overwhelmed with too many at one time. Perfectly timing the next round of tapas, with new dinner plates, and the next round of drinks. Our waters were consistently topped off. It was a lot! We were a handful! Our waiter (Christian S) knew exactly what to do. Exactly what drinks to recommend. Exactly which tapas and desserts to recommend. Exactly what to say to make us laugh. He rounded out the experience to ensure it was a perfect evening! Thank you Christian! These were some of the highlights: Pan with the homemade salsa verde as well as the pan de tomato The pork with manchego, pepper special was divine! As well as the chicken with garbanzos! Amazing flavor and sauces. The ham, Salchicha, chorizo, olives tray was incredible Other amazing tapas included beets, mushrooms, Spanish tortilla, patatas bravas, meatballs/albondigas, carrot salad, chicken croquetas and the salmon special Followed by churros with chocolate, flan and crema catalana for dessert. It was a delicious meal with a wonderful staff! We would highly recommend and we will definitely return! My only regret is we didn't take pictures of the food except the first one! Beets with Valencia orange and lemon (not sure on the exact name). It was so flavorful, as were all the tapas! Wow! Best meal in Denver we've had in a while! Thank you 9th Door staff, chefs, and Christian!

The Ninth Door to Spanish Serenity (and a Secret Time Machine)…read more For my very first night in Denver, my local "foodie" friends led the way to 9th Door, and it was the perfect introduction to the city's dining scene. After a heavy lunch, the prospect of Spanish tapas was exactly what I needed--light, social, and full of variety. The Experience Since my friends are regulars, I let them take the reins on ordering. We started with sangria for the table, which set a relaxed, celebratory tone for the evening. The tapas that followed were all impeccably sized and flavorful. The Standout: I was pleasantly surprised by the dates. It's a dish I might not ordinarily choose myself, but it ended up being a highlight of the meal. The Vibe: The atmosphere is "buzzing" in the best way possible. It has an inviting layout with a mix of bar seating, tables, and cozy booths that create a "friends among friends" energy. The "Speakeasy" Aesthetic What really sets this place apart is the ambiance. It has a distinct speakeasy feel that makes you feel as though you've stepped back in time. It's sophisticated yet unpretentious--a rare balance to strike. The Verdict If you're looking for a spot to decompress after a high-velocity work week, this is it. It's a relaxing, high-quality environment that focuses on great conversation and even better food. I'll certainly be back next time I'm in town!

You head to the back counter where you place your food order, and then you can head over to a table to sit and wait for the food to be ready. Once its ready, you head up to the counter to collect your food. The restaurant portion is real cute. They have some colorful tables and chairs which give it a nice Mexico vibe. Once you get your food, you can head over to the salsa bar and add all the additional toppings your heart desires. They have all kinds of sauces from spicy to mild and even have jalapenos and sliced radishes. I got an asada taco and a barbacoa taco and they were both delicious. But my favorite was the barbacoa. It had so much flavor and it was so juicy. I also got an horchata and it was perfect. One of the best I've had! The grocery side itself offers a huge variety of goodies you can find in Mexico including candy which is always what I look for!

The other half of the place is the restaurant. It's more like a small cafe which delivers authentic vibes but very humble. Food was amazing. We had their tacos and I had the burrito which was huge and packed with beef, rice, beans and guacamole. I had it with the loaded sauce on top. So basically you order your food and pick up once you're called. We tried their horchata and it was so delicious. Just the right touch of sweetness. Definitely a hidden gem but remember I rated this for their food and service. This is a humble authentic place.
