I definitely recommend the chicken and corn and cheese (local favorite). Additionally, I had the grilled chicken which was very flavorful but the salad that accompanied it was hardly a salad.

There are millions of restaurants offering tapas and paella and we just wanted something different. While Gauchos was On The expensive side, it was all delicious plus we FINALLY received friendly service! We had the goat cheese salad, stuffed pepper, tenderloin brochettes and rump roast and dulce de leche crepe. The met is not exactly what i would consider tenderloin or the best cut of meat, but much better than getting ham everywhere else. All was great and had plenty for leftovers today.

Our first meal in Barcelona was a grab and go right from the airport metro. We wanted something to…read moremunch on while sitting in the nearby dog park and before we entered the touristy, food-deserty scrum of the Sagrada Familia. We got the pear and almond, the pork and plum, the artichoke, and the zucchini parmesan. The ingredients were written out in in four or five languages above the counter, so we knew just what we're getting. All were good but would have been way better hot, and not randomly cold in the center. I think my favorite was the artichoke, which had a strong lingering parmesan flavor. €1.80 each.

Comfortable, pleasant seating under awnings in a busy square. Service is at the usual Argentinian speed (slow) but they do understand if you have to get to mass across the street in time.

A short walk from the Metro L3 Paral-lel.

Okay guys when we say we loved this place... we loved this place. We came here twice in Barcelona…read morebecause the food was so stellar and the wait staff was awesome!!! The first time we sat outside and the second time we sat inside and both were great experience. Beer was delicious and got a bottle of wine for an amazing price. In terms of everything we tried, we tried the morcilla and chorizo, the empanadas, the pizza and several different milanesas. Everything was stellar!!!!! So well priced and fresh and delicious. Just to die for. If you're looking for casual and easy food while in the area, this is the place to go. Also, this place might be named La Frontera on the front but it's the same restaurant. ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! Wish we could have come here more (even more than twice)

Lovely little spot, tucked away from the city bustle…read more First go, did the menu del dia, and it was grand. Second go, chicken bocadillo * which * handily is the best bocadillo we have had in the city thus far. Why? Everything. Presentation, bread, and a very unexpected (but nonetheless welcome) presumably freshly boiled and sliced egg accompanying the lettuce and tomato. Honestly, something so simple, yet it elevated the sandwich so much. Pair the cuisine with the excellent staff and what appears to be inviting decor (sidewalk seating both visits), am very much looking forward to returning and exploring the rest of the menu.

I have been at La República twice - once in 2013 and again today. If you are wondering if you…read moreshould go here? It's a definite YES! The restaurant is located in a quiet street close to Port Vell just off Passeig de Colom and easy to miss. Once you enter you are greeted by Latin music and a friendly waitress (which we have not encountered often unless it's the waiters trying to lure you into a restaurant on la rambla). The location is really nice and different with a colander or mini-BBQ functioning as lamp shades. Everything is nice and clean. They offer a variety of original Argentinian food like milanesas or empanadas. We had three different milanesas (La mano de Dios, La favorita de Leo and La Bombamera) which were all really good. We had some questions about the food beforehand and the waitress was really friendly and courteous and answered all of our questions. As drinks you can get a variety of international and Argentinian beers and cocktails. The mojitos get served in preserving jars which is pretty epic. If you come later at night the restaurant turns into a restoclub which is frequented by Argentinians. This means it should be pretty authentic (in my eyes) ;) Positive: + great food + good and very stylish mojitos + attentive and very friendly waitress + good music Negative: + nothing If you ask nicely you might even get the wifi password ;)
