We did have to wait a bit to be seated but were thankfully at a nice table in the corner so our large party could be comfortable and private. I do recall the table or a chair being rickety and a waiter immediately assisting to make sure it would stop shifting which was amazing. We ordered a ton of tapas to share (6-7) to share amongst 6 people - all the dishes I tried were fantastic. My favorite was surprisingly the patatas - they were nice and crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside, and were very flavorful. I also enjoy meat quite a bit so the braised short rib and steak were great too. Highly recommend also getting the pan - the sauce was addicting! Overall, I would love to come back if I'm in the area again. The atmosphere, service, food - everything suited me and my party perfectly.

Last night we visited Barcelona for dinner with a reservation for four at 6:30. We were seated…read moreright away, and the restaurant itself is absolutely gorgeous with a beautiful atmosphere. Unfortunately, the service didn't quite match the setting. Our waiter seemed like being there was a chore, which made the experience feel less welcoming. We ordered several tapas to share, and one of our dishes was accidentally forgotten. When we asked about it, it felt like the mistake was being blamed on us rather than acknowledged. That said, the food was excellent and definitely the highlight of the evening. We shared the house-made sourdough bread with Spanish olive oil, tomato vinaigrette, and Maldon salt, Marcona almonds, Patatas Bravas, empanadas, burrata with compressed watermelon and Jamón Serrano, the flat iron steak, and the garlic shrimp. The standout dishes for me were the Camarones al Ajillo (garlic shrimp) that is perfectly cooked with Basque pepper, chile, and olive oil and the flat iron steak, which was incredibly flavorful. The burrata was also a refreshing summer dish, and the Patatas Bravas were a great classic tapa. Overall, I'd absolutely return for the food because it was delicious, but I hope the service is warmer next time since it didn't quite live up to the quality of the meal.

An excellent restaurant -- we will definitely return.

We also shared the Caesar salad, enjoyed a couple of espresso martinis, and finished with the Post Mortem brownie sundae. Between the excellent service, beautiful patio, and great food, this was an easy five-star experience. We'll definitely be back for another special occasion.

I got the crab cake as well as a side of fries for us to share. The fries were great, could have used a little salt, and the crab cake was very good, very flavorful, but definitely a pretty small plate for almost $30 Service was good and attentive but we definitely did feel like the meal went pretty fast, not so much that we were rushed but just that I would have been really ok with the courses being a little more spread out. Got drinks on the patio after dinner which was gorgeous and both very good, but strong!!

It was the perfect spot for a relaxed, drawn-out dinner where we could enjoy drinks, take our time, and really soak it all in. We had a reservation and were seated right away, which set the tone for the night. Everyone ordered cocktails (I've heard the espresso martini is one of their best, even though coffee isn't really my thing), and honestly, you can't go wrong with anything on the drink menu. We started with the Meze, which included house-made falafel, tzatziki, hummus, sun-dried tomato couscous, assorted vegetables, and naan--everything was fresh and so flavorful. They also brought out complimentary focaccia right away, which was such a nice touch. For my main, I ordered the seasonal scallops, and I also tried the chicken thighs with fig, goat cheese, asparagus, parmigiano reggiano, and couscous--both were absolutely amazing. I'd go back in a heartbeat just to try more of the menu. We were there for about 2-3 hours, and at no point did we feel rushed or like we were inconveniencing the staff. The entire experience felt thoughtful, welcoming, and just really special. Highly recommend The Sycamore for your next date night or girls' dinner!
