I reached out to them on whatsapp - letting them know that my husband and I were excited to try their food. I got a reply within a minute saying: We are open. We arrived within 10 minutes and the chef tells us the kitchen is closed. He blames the poor communication on the front office. The website does not state what time the kitchen is closed - it simply says open until 11:30PM, as well as, on google. I responded to the whatsapp message letting them know - we were turned away due to the kitchen being closed at 11PM. I couldn't believe the response I received. I was told that I wasn't turned away, they could see me on camera and it didn't look like anyone was being rude to me. The appropriate response would been a simple - The kitchen is closed at 11PM and we are happy to have customers until 11:30PM at the bar. Instead of "we are open" - come and be disappointed we don't have any food. A simple - We apologize for giving you the wrong information would have sufficied. We wasted our time and money getting here. Do not go here. By the way: My family is from Trinidad and Tobago - specifically Diego Martin and Cuerpe. I tend to support Black and specifically - Caribbean businesses, but I want to warm customers that may be treated the same or worse if they go.

How ever when we looked over the menu the chef came out and recommended that we ordered from a specific page. It felt like he wanted us to order what he had precooked already so that his job would be easier. He even told us if we order anything from the tapas page that it would take much longer to make. We didn't want anything guisado we were craving fried dishes so we ended finishing out delicious mojito and walked out. Also the place looked a little neglected. The other restaurants in the area looked more modern and cleaner. Place needs some TLC and I'm sure it would boost up their business.

Dessert was some sort of "pudding" and we also ordered a milkshake. If/when you come here, be decently hungry. The portions are generous and filling. Everything was delicious, though I really would rate the spicy sauce as mild. It was flavorful though! Everything was seasoned nicely and I recommend also dipping your potatoes in the other spicy sauce they have bottled on the table. The pudding we had reminded my dining companion of some sort of British pudding from his childhood. To me as an American, I would describe it more as a cast iron cake soaked in some delightfully sweet (but not too sweet!) custard. It was excellent. The milkshake was fantastic. Nothing really blew me away, but everything was delicious and very satisfying. The space is very casual and pretty small. Our waitress was very friendly and knowledgeable about the food. It was refreshing to be served by someone who clearly had a love for the food and the establishment.

This is a placeholder review…read more They do live up to their name, that's for sure. My one experience was for a rotisserie chicken for take-away. It was quite good, actually! I tried the Caribbean chicken, and asked for a sample of the extra spicy African sauce. I'm not sure if my heretofore high tolerance for spice has been dulled after 6 years living in Barcelona, but that sauce was MUY PICANTE!! I'm not even sure if I can handle the African chicken that comes automatically with the extra picante sauce. But since I'm not one to back down from a challenge, I'll be ordering it next time. At under 15 euros for the chicken, it's still relatively cheap considering the quality, but that's without any sides. They give you a frequent customer punch card - the 10th chicken is free. If I ever eat at the restaurant, I'll amend my review.

It was late, we were hungry, but we still wanted to have the authentic Spanish experience, which brought us to La Caleta de Sants. The place is very tourist friendly - English menus, and friendly, English speaking staff. The food: AMAZING. I had the best cooked octopus I have ever had in my life, which came highly recommended by the server. It was tender, juicy, and so flavorful! The ceviche was some of the best I have ever had - wonderfully marinated, with generous portions of seafood. If you have no idea what to order, just ask the server, they make excellent recommendations, and with the dishes we ordered, it seems you can do no wrong no matter what you get. The place isn't very big, so seating is quite limited, and the tables are quite close to each other. Bonus: free wifi!

New place that is still trying to find itself and suffers from a little split personality…read more The food is the one thing they got right. I had the "fish stew", which was great (They posted a really nice photo of it in a pot). I also had the Civiche, which was a small serving, but still really nice. Serving sizes generally are not overly large, so it is more a quality rather than quantity place. The split personality came in the form of the atmosphere and service. It was trying a little too hard to be a casual, by the beach style restaurant, but as a result, only felt overpriced and lacking the personality it needs. Service was not that great. The highlight coming from when we asked for cocktails, and were told that cocktails could not be served at the tables. We then watched the table next to us order cocktails and get them. hopefully over time, as they get more people coming through, it will sort itself out.
