Great neighborhood spot with delicious food and large portions. We ate here because we passed by and saw groups of local grandmas eating here... Resto has a two-item set menu for 13 euros - chicken soup / Swiss chard / rice, followed by fish / beef / lamb, and the portions were enough to be shared by two people. The boiled leafy Swiss chard and potatoes was a nice detox break from tapas. The veal schnitzel was delicious. They also had lots of other interesting items on the menu like offal and pig snout/ear. Portions are very generous and service is friendly. read more

We picked this restaurant because it was already 10ish and this restaurant came out when I googled paella near my hotel. I was sad initially because they didn't have paella but then later surprised by their tapas. This is a local bar/restaurant and we were probably the only tourists. Although dishes were salty (especially the mushroom and sausage) and oily, they were all super delicious and flavorful. The pig ear was our favorite because it's not a common food ingredient (besides Chinese, and we love it). The tripe was good too! It's cooked to a soft consistency with chickpeas in tomato?based stew. They were all great portion and good with drinks. There isn't much service (just like every other restaurants), but he will give you what is needed. The restaurant is very local, give a very "authentic" vibe. If you live around the area and can't find a place try this restaurant! read more

Morryssom - Quail and tomato bread - Tapas Bars Near Me - Barcelona, B

Tapas tapas tapas. My wife and I stopped her for a quick lunch. We ended up being full beyond belief. The table next to us in classic Spanish fashion was having a bottle of wine and smoking giant cigars before heading back to work. Our server had a huge smile and was quick with his work. We tried five plates. #1 was absolutely the bombas. An ever so slightly crunchy outside and a soft inside cushioning your mouth like a comfy pillow. Recap - get the bombas. read more

Morrysom was probably one of the best meals I had while in Barcelona. My boyfriend and I came in for some tapas at around 11 PM on a Friday night. There were so many things that we wanted to order. Our waiter was super nice - he heard all the things we wanted to order and stopped us from over-ordering, and I'm glad he did because the amount of food that we did end up getting was enough. We ordered the "small" meat plate. I say "small" because it definitely would have been enough for four people. It had four different types of meats, including morcilla and jamon, as well as some cheese. We ordered a side of the tomato bread and it was a great accompaniment to the meat plate, as it helped cut the saltiness. Then we had a bomba, which is a stuffed mashed potato ball - in this case with cheese, and then topped with some kind of tomato-ey sauce. One of these is huge, so one to share is perfect for two people. It tastes slightly different than a croquette, and I really liked it. Finally, we had some gambas de ajillo (garlic shrimp), which was the star of the show. The shrimp tasted super fresh and all that garlic oil just brought out its flavor. We loved it so much that we started dipping the tomato bread in it. On top of all of this, we had a glass of wine each and our total bill came out to just €23! Definitely recommend if you're staying in the Eixample area! read more

Our Airbnb host gave us a list of places to try and this was one of them. A very local spot where you will rarely find any tourists or English speaking people here. We sat outside and ordered ourselves a good amount of tapas. Again, there was no disappointments here. The mushrooms were cooked perfectly with the perfect amount of garlic and broth (whatever they put on it). Their peppers were amazing, maybe a little too generous with the salt. Sangria was refreshing, as always. Their mussels were drenched in an addicting broth that was too good not to finish. If you're into finding more local places and don't mind practicing your Spanish, I would recommend this place. The tapas were great! read more

Morryssom - Mussels, pedrón peppers, mushrooms, sangria - Tapas Bars Near Me - Barcelona, B

This place is packed and full of locals. We came here for lunch and there was only one server upstairs. I could tell he was pressured since he had to wait the entire floor himself. He tried his best to translate but was rushing to cater other tables. Not a tourist spot. I ordered the special of the day which started off with a salad, then seafood paella followed by fried fish with fries. There was no way I could finish it. I had no idea what the price was going to be but everyone ordered it so I went for it. This was my first seafood paella and I liked it. There wasn't much flavor to it so I used the sauce in my friend's mussel tapas. They give a lot of rice. The fish was satisfying and I wish I knew I could swap the fries for greens. I saw another table have fish with salad. The peppers tapas plate had way too much sea salt but still yummy. Overall, great local meal with reasonably prices. My dish was a little over 10 euros! read more

We found this place after our long train ride from San Sebastián to Barcelona. This place was a 15 minute walk from our Airbnb and came highly recommended by Yelp. Everything we ordered was excellent especially my favorite the padron peppers. read more

The venue looks very traditional inside with wooden chairs and tables. We sat on the second floor and ordered the Patatas bravas, fried anchovies, mussels, fried calamari, and paella. Everything including service and price was good. I really recommend this place for all their tapas. However, I don't recommend the paella because it's 1 shrimp, 1 mussel and mostly rice. Definitely order the patatas bravas! read more

We were first turned onto this place three years ago by our then Airbnb host. We've come back to Barcelona every year since, and to Morrysom's as well. We've never been disappointed! On Thursday, Morrysom includes a paella in their Menu al Día. This is not a random paella... this is the good stuff! It has so many tasty morsels of fresh seafood that you wind up going through a number of napkins. ...at least I do! As it is part of their menu al día, it is only the first course. The second spans a range from sausages to chicken, other seafood, pasta, salads, and the like. The menu al día also comes with your beverage and dessert included... all for € 9,50 per person. Wait, what? Yeah. all that yummy goodness for not much money. Now that we live in Barcelona, it'll be on our foodie radar a lot more often! read more

This was our first restaurant in Spain and it was a great introduction to the culture. It was right by our hostel and our server recommended the best tapas. We got the calamari, tomato bread, mushrooms and sausage, croquetas, and of course the sangria! Our service was awesome and the food came out fast. Definitely recommend for a quick bite to eat! read more

I first found out about Morryssom after it appeared on a Diners Drive-ins and Dives special. While I don't think it's any of those three, I was still very pleased to have discovered it. Upon arrival, we were greeted and took a table upstairs. English menus were available, although had we been downstairs then we could have just pretty much pointed at what we wanted. We got some chorizo (made in house), some chicken croquettes, some bread with tomato and oil and some potatos aloli. Everything was terrific, and was loads of food for two people. Along with three drinks it came to around twenty euros - a real bargain. read more

Insane food, the portions are huge and so so tasty. The staff is so professional too, Manolito was so attentive and friendly, really makes you feel like family right away. Food here is next level, I will be coming back again and again. Don't say I didn't share this jewel of restaurant, come here now! read more

I live right around the corner of this place and, after trying many other options in the area, decided that this would become my go to tapas place. There is loads of space, the waiters are friendly and funny, and the atmosphere is "real" and authentic. I'm a huge fan of their fried sardines, but also basically all their other tapas: mussles, calamari, croquetas, you name it. Totally recommend this place! read more

Try this place - you won't be disappointed. They have the best of everything typically Spanish. I had the best Spanish omelette here. Best patatas bravas. Best chorizo. Not many tourists except me and the people I brought along, hehe. Great prices. Great, authentic food. Everything is delicious. I'm sad I'm leaving, if I was local, I'd eat here every day. read more

A nice and welcoming tapas bar in Gracia. Good cold beer and nice food. The croquetas are a good choice, with bechamel sauce and ham inside. Yum! Beware: it gets really crowded! read more

This place was by far the worst place we ate in Barcelona. Food was absolutely without savor, the service was abysmal and the restaurant itself was poorly maintained. Give this dump a pass. There are far to many great places to eat in Barcelona without patronizing this disappointment. read more

Amazing daily spécial of paella cabeza and wine for like 13.50. Cozy atmosphere and down to earth staff.

Excellent mushrooms here. I don't even know what all we ordered. Just pointed at a few things that sounded good and everything was good. Quite crowded, but at 21:30, more towards the end of the dinner hour, at least for that day, able to get a table with no wait. Main seating area is upstairs, so can't tell anything from just looking in. Staff efficient and while somewhat curt, still friendly enough. read more

If you are looking for the locals, they are here. Terrific food, wonderful servers and all around happy place. Order their Morros (deep fried pig jowls) and the jamón ibérico. Add a little pan con tomate and your lunch is perfect. read more

On our first day in Barcelona, we went for a short walk and came across Morryssom. The service was top notch and the food was too. I really enjoyed the albodingas and patatas bravas. I look forward to going there again soon. read more

Very nice lunch menu ! High quality dishes with nice big portions . I had the inked rice (with yummy,fresh seafood), and a dish of steamed greens (sometimes one needs just that!) . Both were delicious ! My friends had pork (special of the day) falling off the bone , in some kind of beautiful tomato sauce. All accompanied by a house salad . Highly recommended. read more

Really delicious and authentic local spot for tapas. We ordered way too much but couldn't help it as we wanted to try everything. Nothing was disappointing! We really enjoyed the fried artichoke, bombas, their special sausage with fries, the mushrooms, and the chocos (fried calamari). And definitely order a glass of their white vermouth. Delicious! read more

I stopped here bc of the great reviews on yelp. I was super happy with the food and the service here. Majii (sp?) was my waiter, he was lively and sincere, fun and attentive. The vermouth was delicious, as were the mushrooms and sausage tapas that I had. It's a great location close to la Sagrada Familia but it has a lot of locals rather than being overrun by tourists. It's a great spot for people watching whether your back is to the street or to the restaurant. I kept changing my location because of the blaring sun and found that either way that I sat I enjoyed the view. I had one tapas plate, two glasses of vermouth, and a bottle of water and it only came out €12.30. I almost left and decided to run back in to use the restroom and was pleasantly surprised to find that the upstairs room was chock-full of gorgeous men sitting alone at tables eating. The bathroom is tiny but it's well worth the visit. read more

We went there because of Guy Fieri's recommendation. We ordered a menu del dia . The Fideua (should be seafood pasta ) but it came with only 4 mussels. The second was battered chicken with fries which was average. There was complimentary bread and olives. Although the menu del dia should have come with a drink, they still charged us for it. The only good thing was the calamari romana (which we added ) and their house wine. read more

Had a wonderful late lunch here today. The food was terrific as was our service. We had the artichokes, which were seasoned well and the hearts were full of flavor, just amazing. The Pedron peppers here are my husbands favorite. He's had them at two other place and none compared. Here they are blistered and service with olive oil and rock salt, they're a really good addition to any meal. We ordered a chicken wing, while its crispy it lacks luster in comparison to the rest of the items we ordered, I'd skip it unless you're kids are looking for something familiar (assuming your a tourist, which is why we tried it.). The best deal here is the set meal for 10 euro it came with a huge bowl of soup (garbanzo beans pigs foot and potato) and it was GOOD.. The set meal also came with a simple salad, roll of bread, braised and tender yummy pork cheek and French fried potatoes and wait I'm not finished... it came with a desert and a jug of wine for 10$ euro! I thought the guy made a mistake and though we ordered wine for the family... but no it wasn't a mistake, when I tried to tell him there was no way I could drink that much wine he said "one glass or the jug it's all okay!" The dessert was ice cappuccino I believe, which consisted of thin layers of gelato with a perfect balance of coffee and chocolate. We also ordered the clams marinara but they were not available today, only the clams in white wine were so we had them as well. While the clams in white wine were good my husband and daughter said the clams in the red sauce they had a few days prior, were excellent and that's why we went today. Even through we couldn't get the red clams today, it wasn't a disappointment we still had a fantastic meal at a great price. This place had a real down home vibe to it with good down home cooking. read more

Don't understand all the good reviews. It's an average place. Nothing outstanding. Portions are small. Good but don't expect to have "the best tapas of Barcelona" read more

Nice food with nice staff. The server wasn't good at English, but he did his best-we could see it- and the food was served very fast. Every menu tasted really nice, and I am sure that it is a very good local restaurant with a lot of people coming in. It seems to me that the first floor is absolutely better, but if you prefer eating quietly, second floor will be better. But it's not a quiet place anyway. read more

I honestly don't know why this place got such good reviews. I have been in Spain for a month, and this is by far the worst place we have been to. Stay away from the octopus, it is really slimy and gross. We just left the place and I feel sick to my stomach already. read more

Stumbled upon this place at 11:30 pm after arriving to the city late in the night. Staff were happy to accommodate English-only speaking guests and went through the whole tapas menu, showing us the dishes in display, which made choosing from the large and varied menu much easier. We ordered some local beer and around 6 tapas for a group of 3. The food arrived very quickly in generous quantities, and everything was completely delicious. So glad we randomly found this place - it was a great way to start off our trip. read more

One of the best places to eat in Barcelona. Its very cheap compared to touristic restaurants. Food was fresh and delicious. Highly recommended. :) read more

Best tapas we've ever had! Our favorite were the patatas bravas, mushrooms and sausage and scallops with marinera sauce. Service was also great! read more

Great service and excellent food. Octopus was a bit spicy but delicious. One of the few places in Barcelona that won't close at 4PM.

My boyfriend saw this place on Guy Fieri's show so we figured we would give it a try on our last night in Barcelona. We were able to snag a table outside around 8pm. The food here was fantastic; traditional Spanish tapas that are done very well for a great price. Our favorites were the quail (a must try!) and mussels in marinara. We also ordered the tomato bread, potatas bravas, peppers and cheesecake for dessert, all of which were very delicious as well. I would highly recommend this place and I look forward to going back if I am ever in Barcelona again! read more

We stumbled accross this place and are so happy we did! It's a small family owned place with great service. They made great attempts to make us feel welcome as the only English speaking people there. We shared a pitcher of sangria (homemade each time and delicious) and got 2 plates of paella for 26 euro. Not bad!! I would definitely recommend it! read more

Currently studying abroad and this place was near my apartment. My roommates and I went hear randomly and it was alright but I was not impressed. I got wine, an appetizer, meal and dessert all for 12.50 euros. The vino was good and I got a large jug of it. I had paella as my appetizer and I was not impressed by any means. If you are looking for good Spanish paella this is not the best you can go to. My meal was chicken with French fries which was all right, nothing special. My dessert was mocha ice cream which definitely hit the spot. read more

Definitely a local place, very cheap and delicious! If you want to get out of the tourist area where you get overcharged and the quality of food isn't that great, this is the place to go! read more
