    dairy free oreo milkshake
    Cammi P.

    The vibe of this restaurant is definitely the best part. The service was slow but sitting outside by the boardwalk in Barcelona near the beach is the best. The food was good. The chicken tenders were definitely the highlight and the burger was a double patty, juicy and cooked to perfection! The milkshake was a little plain but nice that they have dairy free options. Overall, great experience and definitely a favorite in Barcelona.

    This spot gave me a the little bit of california i was missing while living in barcelona. The nachos were super good with a such a generous serving. The smoothies were also amazing and it was right outside on the beach so it was a vibe. Definitely elevated beach shack type of place perfect for those hot long summer days!

    Tuna Poke & Rice Paper Rolls
    Jim R.

    Not really a 3 Star rating but also not a 4, they have both indoor & outdoor seating and we chose inside because there wasn't a wait. Semi "Surfer Dude" atmosphere with mostly young clientele, complete with fairly loud techno music playing, it was a fun change of pace for lunch - and the food was pretty good! The Rice Paper Rolls was an all vegi sushi roll that could have used something to give it more of a kick. The Tuna Poke over Quinoa,on the other hand, was very good. The bill came to around $35 US with 3 beers.

    Good poke good chicken tenders , solid maybe wish there was a bit. more tuna...... .....

    Steak takati

    The good: Wow the food is amazing. Got the beef nachitos which were delicious and the Norwegian poke bowl (salmon) was also just as amazon. Nachos were so good we took what we didn't finish home, came back a few days later ordered them again and again took the rest home for dinner. The bad: The service. It's not bad it's just very unconventional from what an American is used to. They will let you sit as long as you want & there is no rush to turn your table even when they're is a line for tables. That is great as long as you are not in a rush. Every time you want to speak to a waiter you have to flag them down. Unlike in America they don't perceive this as rude, in fact they encourage this. The third time we went there during our Barcelona stay the waiter told us to flag him down when we were ready. This is only bad your first time, and as long as you know what to expect- you will have a much better experience. Overall: Delicious food, albeit a slow meal. Worth going to multiple times. Must order the beef nachitos. Also worth trying the poke bowl, the steak tataki, and the avocado toast.

    The veggie burger had absolutely no taste but the chicken one was delicious and so was the smoothie. Plus, they gave us a paddle for 45 Minutes if we spend at least 15€ ! The service is ok

    Uluwatu salad

    Great lunch spot! The food and drinks were bomb and the menu had so many appealing options. The service was top tier and the food was prepared quickly.

    Very chill vibe, with great outdoor seating facing the beach. The truffle fries are top notch for a snack after the boardwalk stroll with lemon beer. Would love to come back next time we are here.

    You HAVE to come here for brunch in Barcelona. This was by far the best brunch we've had in a long time. Everything was perfect! We got the tropical açaí bowl to share (absolutely amazing), my boyfriend got the French toast, and I got the breakfast tacos. We were so blown away!!!!! I wanted to come back every morning for brunch. Definitely try this place out! Great service and location.

    Chicken Sandwich
    Ricardo S.

    I am usually very very skeptical about places located in very touristy areas. La Barceloneta's water front is for sure one of the most touristy places in Barcelona. However, we were strolling around the beach and found this place on Yelp and decided to give it a try. Food was good, I had some pretty good BBQ ribs and Ana had a Chicken sandwich that she loved. Best of all was their warm Waffle (which by the way be advised that is Belgian-style waffle, not American) with Vanilla ice cream, that was really delicious. I wouldn't say it was mind blowing but the food was good, the prices are acceptable for the location and the service was very attentive. I give it a solid 4 stars for offering a good choice in a place filled with tourist traps. Recommended.

    Really delicious food and cocktails, but terrible table service (even by European standards). At around 7:30pm we tried to order nachos, and were told that we had to wait until 8pm. Meanwhile, a couple literally right next to us (who had a different server), received and enjoyed nachos while we were trying to order ours. When we tried to order again at 8pm, our waitress had disappeared for about 20 minutes (turned out her shift ended and she just didn't tell anyone). By the time we were able to get someone to take over our table, they told us we couldn't order because a large party was arriving in about 30 minutes. By this point we'd been trying to order food for over an hour. We finally got it (and it was good), but we had to go inside.

    Tropical Açaí Bowl
    Courtney S.

    YUM!!! We went here twice while in Barcelona so I think that alone says a lot. First came for breakfast and ordered an açaí bowl and the House latte (picture) then came back for dinner! Everything is amazing - drinks, food, atmosphere, staff!! The food is so flavorful and there is something on the menu for everyone. Will definitely be stopping by next time I'm in Barcelona!

    Tropical treats bowl: pineapple and mango smoothie base topped with fresh fruits, Oreo crumbles, and chocolate nut granola

    The tacos are really good but the service is absolutely terrible. We sat for an hour trying to get someone's attention to pay the bill.

    This bar was voted Top 50 bars in the world. If you are visiting Barcelona, this is definitely…read moreworth a visit! Do expect a wait time or enter their queue when it opens to expedite that process. We started there one night and there was a long line out the door. We decided not to wait as it was already midnight (late for us!) and come back the next night. I'm glad we did, because there was minimal line and we entered the queue before anyone else, so we were able to enter rather quickly. It was the coolest speakeasy vibe and fun ambiance. We sat at the bar and quickly observed the menu. The menu was lit up, which I thought was pretty unique. It took a little bit of time for the server to assist us, but it was evident she was super busy. My drink came in a skull with a "brain" that was actually edible sorbet. It was vodka and not too strong but also not too sweet. Honestly, I wish I had more! My husband ordered somewhat of an old fashion that he said was the best he ever had. Highly recommend if you're in Barcelona!

    If you are into novelty cocktail bars, Paradiso is definitely a great place to check out! I arrived…read morearound 7pm to a decently sized line; my party of 2 didn't get seated until 30-45 minutes afterwards. I did read that there would be QR code for a virtual queue, but we didn't see that option and just ended up waiting in line ourselves. I was worried Paradiso would have a snobby vibe to it, since it is ranked #4 in the world, but that wasn't the case at all! The servers were very friendly and the cocktails were genuinely delicious. There's also a sense of theatre when they present you with their specialty cocktails. For example, I ordered the Gravity cocktail (reminiscent of an espresso martini), and our server brought it in an interesting bowl meant to mimic a black hole and also gave a little background story to the cocktail. They provide menus in Spanish, Catalan, and English. Servers also speak English as well, so communication is not an issue. The interior is gorgeous and and had great moody lighting, there was also a great playlist on with classic pop songs. Their cocktail menu is unique and as previously mentioned, I especially loved their presentation. Most of their drinks are served in some funky cup or bowl, it was so fun seeing the servers bring out other cocktails to other tables. Overall, a 5/5 experience for me!

    Really enjoyed this bar and we can see why it's been named in the top 50 bars…read more The bartender was really engaging with the people which we enjoyed. The drinks were 8/10 The ambiance was generic but we had a good time. Definitely recommend trying it.

    Wow did we want to give this place 5 stars…read more The bartenders were great and welcoming and the decor was very cool. It is a pleasant place to be physically. All of the cocktails we tried were excellent (we had two more not featured on photos here). We went Sunday 4/19 around open (5pm ish until 7:30 ish). However, our experience was sort of ruined when a female employee came over and chided my wife and two other American patrons we were talking to for being too loud. They weren't being particularly loud and at this point we were the only four people sitting at the bar itself. She was not a bartender (at that time at least) and she completely ruined our vibe with this complaint. She had been eyeing one of the other American patrons we had been talking to before she came over and confronted my wife after she laughed. The bar tenders didn't seem to be aware this happened and when we were closing out they remarked they didn't think we had been loud and that they like their guests to have fun. This female employee apparently didn't get the memo! We sense that perhaps she just dislikes Americans, which would be rich for working at an establishment like this! She also had no issues when a dog other guests brought in barked loudly multiple times, each time silencing the entire bar because the barks were so booming. The other American couple felt the same way -- the stern talking to just ruined the experience for all four of us. So... great spot but our experience was unnecessarily tarnished by a jerk employee!!!
