Had Christmas dinner here in 2019. Ordered the Laab salad and the chicken curry. I've had better…read moreLaab in the US, especially in New York and California. It wasn't bad but it lacked heat and acid. The Massmann Curry was okay. Just okay. The curry sauce was a bit too watery for me. That said, it was Christmas, in Barcelona, and there weren't a lot of options for me because I didn't make early reservations and I couldn't get into the more popular places. The service was good but lacked attention. Our waitress was almost always doing something else. There were only three tables occupied so I expected better. I feel like Scrooge leaving this message on Christmas but I want to be honest with reviews. Would I go back, yes. If I find myself out of options.

The chefs are the hardest working people in the business. One chef at lunch and two for dinner, it's incredible how many dishes they turn out. It's also the perfect dive bar for a beer and some dim sum. My favorite dishes here are the bao bun (all of them are great), the pan fried beef dumplings, the steamed pork dumplings and the edamame. Come here and you will not be disappointed.

For €12.90, we each opted for the "menú del día", or a meat or fish dish, a vegetable dish and gyozas, served with a side of white rice, dessert or coffee, and a drink. I opted for the shrimp, the vegetables in homemade broth, and the vegetable gyozas, as well as the red bean mochi and a bottle of water. Everything was delicious! Unlike after more traditional Spanish menus, I didn't leave with the feeling that I had eaten too much, or not well, but rather with a feeling of satisfaction. Highly recommended!

We selected from mostly the smaller plates and shared. The Boa's were probably the highlight of our ordering. The Mantou (Chinese bread) was also worth a try. The cocktails at the end where good fun. The place is a little dark, so it can be hard to read the menu at times. Make sure you get a seat with a cushion though, as the plain wooden ones get uncomfortable after a while.

Food: 3 stars, but I'm adding a 4th due to the wonderful service, cleanliness and atmosphere…read more Tasty Asian food. Menu is mostly a mix of Thai and Chinese influences. A bit more expensive than similar places in the neighborhood. We ordered the green curry with chicken and the pad thai with shrimp. The boyfriend really loved the green curry... I would say if you're expecting a typical spicy Thai green curry then you will be a bit disappointed. I don't think it was exceptionally flavorful either. However it was definitely enjoyable once I got over the fact that it tasted nothing like green curries I've had before. The flavors came through cleanly but not strongly. Along with the chicken it came with perfectly cooked vegetables that were cut perfectly. I hate when curries have awkward chunks that sort of distract you from the overall dish. The veggies were also very nice, not a cheap blend but a wonderful mix of shiitakes, asparagus, bell pepper, and stringy enokitake. The pad thai was tasty, but again wasn't very representative of countless pad thais I've had before. The noodles were very wet and saucy. I enjoyed the flavors but felt a bit cheated that it only came with two tiny little shrimps- especially since opting for shrimp cost extra. Our server was wonderful. Whenever we looked up for her, she came over instantly. This is how service should be, waiters should always be watching should their customers need them but unfortunately that's often not the case in Spain. She was very pleasant despite the fact we came in so close to closing time. I'm pretty sure we were there far after they closed but we were never rushed out. She also properly served the wine, allowing a little taste before serving. Again, this small step seems to be overlooked whenever we go out to a casual place. The space was clean and well designed. I really enjoyed eating in. It would be a wonderful date night spot. The bathroom was impeccably clean, shining and spotless. I would absolutely try this place again, maybe for a menu del día (lunch combo). This place almost always seems to be empty which is just sad. I wasn't blown away but apart from the slightly higher prices the food was a step up from the other Asian places in this neighborhood. Side note- A friend got takeaway from here and really enjoyed his food.

Wasn't too impressed with this place at all. Dinner was not special at all. Pad Thai was just okay…read more Little salty and small portion. Spring roll had a funny taste to it. Oily. I would pass. Lychee martini was not strong. Lot of juice, not enough vodka. The crowd here is better than shoko and opium. Classier, everyone is well dressed in heels and suit and ties. Not sure if there was a special occasion this night but I noticed the crowd was much classier and older than the other night clubs. Only downside is the venue is VERY small and tight. Would pass on dinner here.

My daughter got the Bao and gyoza while my wife got the miso ramen and I got the spicy tepen noodles. I didn't take any pictures but we may have to go back to add them. My noodles were served sizzling, full of vegetables, spice and shrimp. My daughter devoured dumplings and my wife slurped most of her ramen. What a delicious place!

The food is really creative, yummy and the atmosphere is on point. I came here with my vegan girlfriend and they had plenty of options for her - she LOVED her red peanut coconut Penang curry. I ordered the Pork Tonkatsu burger which was like nothing I've ever tasted. The pork was flavorful and topped with crab salad, which added some really nice sweetness to the dish. The hoisin sauce was quite strong, but the bun soaked it up, so it wasn't overpowering. I had never tasted anything like it from before, and I'm an adventurous omnivore from NYC, so that's saying a lot. It also came with a side of the best sweet potato fries I've ever eaten (all for less than 9 euro - great deal). If you're in Barcelona and craving some fun Asian cuisine, go to Lucky Road!
