    Meat croquettes- very good but not your typical croquettes. Heavy on the meat (shredded beef) and very tasty
    Craig Y.

    Wonderful experience! The food is amazing and the service is top notch. As an American who speaks very little Spanish it was so nice to have English speaking servers to help us navigate the menu. Definitely recommended and we will be back for sure if we are ever in Barcelona again! FOOD: You can order ala carte or prix fixe. We order the prime angus steak prix fixe menu and it was spectacular! Meat croquettes came out first followed by tomato bread, foie gras, and Iberico ham. That was followed by a perfectly cooked octopus (delicious by the way). And then the steak which was seared and seasoned but then they bring a hot plate out so you can finish it to your liking. Finally your choice of dessert. We chose the chocolate fantasy (similar to a brownie but better) and the Spanish cheesecake which had a slightly different texture but was very good! All of it was fabulous especially the perfectly seasoned steak! SERVICE: Honestly terrific service! We felt so warm and welcome! And the service was quick and refills were plentiful. The meal come with wine and not just one glass but three different wines to pair with the different foods! So good. COST: This was our anniversary dinner so we knew we were going to splurge and yet I walked away feeling like we got a bargain! Awesome place!

    Fantastic experience, from the food to the wine and service. We ordered one of the set menus (the wagyu one) and I'd really recommend that. It starts with multiple tapas. They included great ham, really nice cheese but the highlight was arguably the best carpaccio I ever had. Then grilled octopus. I am usually not a fan but it was excellent. Then the main was sliced Angus beef, which you finish at the table on sizzling plates (while gimicky, tasted great). The steak was great but the two spaces (garlic aioli and chimichurra) were even better. Finished with multiple desserts, as a non dessert guy I don't remember them. The meal also comes with a half bottle of wine per person, the wine was surprisingly good. Finally, the server (I think his name was Lorenzo) was very pleasant and attentive, despite having not much help. Very enjoyable.

    The most tender octopus

    If I could give the restaurant 10 stars, I would. Easily one of the best restaurants we have eaten! We did the angus beef prix fixe menu, and it was sensational. Everything from the starter to the dessert was delicious! Also included is your alcohol of choice- not just a glass, but an entire bottle. We instead chose the sangria and it was the best I have ever had. Not too sweet with a subtle hint of cinnamon. All the staff were helpful, friendly and out-going and provided excellent service! Special accolades to our waiter, Eric, who was exceptional and top-notch! The owner/ chef, Dario, deserves a Michelin star! Chef's kiss! We will be back!

    Example of the meat lovers special appetizer starters. Great place for a romantic dinner and a fun experience.

    Excellent service. Great food and fabulous experience. The meat lovers "special" was too much food for us, but it was our anniversary and a wonderful experience.

    Pulpo al estilo VIC

    Stumbled upon this restaurant on our walk home from the basilica. Upon entering, we immediately commented on how wonderful it smelled and overheard another couple saying the same. It was a beachy aroma. Lorenzo was so kind and helpful in selecting our dishes, and we loved each one! The Pan de coca con tomate was simple but so good that we ordered two. We order octopus often and this was in my top three. We decided to blindly try the canelones de pularda gratinados con crujiente de pistachos and were blown away at its deep flavor and richness. We glad we made the last minute decision. Highly recommend!

    An authentic but homey Argentinian steakhouse in the heart of one of the most beautiful cities in the world, Vic Braseria was our first stop for dinner upon landing in Catalan capital and I am so glad it was! Located a considerable distance off the beaten path away from the chaos that is the tourist epicenter that is the one two punch of Placa Catalunya and Las Rambla. Since it was so far off the beaten path, we decided to take a cab ride there instead of the subway. Vic Braseria is one of those places you never thought you needed to try until you finally arrive and go on to love the place. The main reason we came tonight was because it was so highly recommended from a friend who had come to Barcelona before and remembered to grab a business card, so others who by chance get to experience the wonder that is Barcelona, are sure to enhance their experience by trying this true undiscovered gem. Although the exterior of Vic Braseria is rather non-descriptive, the interior feels like a charming café that I would imagine exists throughout Europe. Upon perusing the menu, I remembered to check-in on my trusty Yelp app and look at what pops up but a free sangria upon Yelp check-in. Thankfully co-owners Christina and Jovanni were so gracious to us that they welcomed us to Vic Braseria as if we were family members and presented us with a huge pitcher of the fantastic wine blend. I didn't think it would be that much but we were more than welcome to finish it. I also decided since it was my first night in Spain that a glass of Tempranillo wine would be more than appropriate and authentic as it would pair so well with the amount of meat we planned to order. To start our meal we decided to order the Ensalada catalana con embutidos y jamon iberico, which was Catalan style salad with salami and Iberian ham; the Huevos Rotos con patatas, jamón ibérico y virutas de foie, which were fried potatoes served with broken eggs; Iberian ham and foie shavings; and the Pan de coca con tomate, which was their toasted flatbread with tomato. Both the salad and potatoes were wonderfully filled with flavor thanks to the abundance of sliced Iberian ham that topped both dishes and I was so glad that I got the chance to try the signature Spanish staple that is tomato bread. Obviously, this was just getting is queued up for our entrées, which since we were in a steakhouse, all three of us ordered from the section of their menu that delightfully called "From the Barnyard Onto the Grill" including the Grilled Pork Chops, Grilled Lamb Chop from Moià, and I decided to go with their Beef on an Argentinian Cut (Entraña). I got to sample bites from all three dishes, which were presented with such whimsy and flair, in which plated elegance meets casual comfort food, and I can honestly say everything was seasoned and cooked to perfection. Each dish came with an option of homemade fries, grilled potatoes, a salad, or beans with homemade aioli that we could have just eaten our main course al carte, and we would have been satisfied. They weren't super slammed this evening at Vic Braseria when Christina and Jovanni came to talk to us and told us more about their restaurant, including the fact that they have only been around for about eight years in this location. Both of their English speaking skills were strong that we felt free to communicate with them freely. They were so nice that they even presented us with a sweet wine and chocolate pairing for a little amuse bouche for dessert. We had such a pleasant experience, once we settled our bill, we decided to tip them extra, which apparently in Europe is not that common of an occurrence, but they were honest in their appreciation of the extra Euros for an evening's work. Would I come back? In a Spanish minuto, as they have authentically prepared meals that locals and tourists alike can easily split and totally be satisfied with seems like a positive recurring theme at Vic Braseria.

    Simply delicious everything! In the second night of our recent visit to Barcelona we decided to stick around the neighborhood were our hotel was for dinner so we could get to bed early and catch up with some sleep. The folks at the reception suggested we try Vic Braseria. Vic Braseria is a charming restaurant on Carrer de Sicilia near the intersection with Gran Via de lesCorts Catalanes. It has a very unassuming front so you may just walk by it an miss it as we did on our first attempt! The dinning area is basic, simple, comfortable and charming, the service is very warm and friendly, the ingredients are local and fresh and the dishes are fabulously delicious. They have a good wine list and their prices are very reasonable. As you can tell from the photos, the two of us indulged ourselves and ordered more than our waistlines would prefer, but we did not regret a single choice! Everything was good.

    Incredible food and service! Lorenzo was absolutely phenomenal, and truly made this visit a highlight of our group's vacation.

    Starting off the affordable 5 course meal with this delicious 5 piece appetizer...which included the wine.

    My wife and I went here for the last stop on our honeymoon...and we were absolutely blown away by the food...the excellent service from the best server we've had on this trip (request him) Lorenzo, and the very peaceful ambiance. If there's one thing I can say, it is this: Please, please, please go to Vic Braseria in Barcelona, Spain...request Lorenzo for the best service, and order some delicious food.

    Amazing service. Delicious appetizers and the steaks are the best I've had anywhere in Europe…read more Really nice decor as well.

    Beautiful place -- the concept, the look, the decor... honestly, chef's kiss…read more The 2-hour window to eat and enjoy your meal kind of sucks, though, and it definitely makes you feel a bit rushed. I did love the concept of being able to grill your meat a little more if you prefer it that way. Unfortunately, I didn't have the best experience with the service. We were a table of 4 and wanted to share a few appetizers before getting our own main dishes. The server quickly shut us down and told us we were ordering too much food. We explained that we were very hungry, but he insisted we were asking for too much and actually refused to take our order. It turned into a bit of an uncomfortable argument because we simply wanted to order what we wanted to eat. Eventually, we had to reduce the number of plates we were ordering just so he would take our order. I ordered an appetizer, but when I tried to order my main dish, he again refused because he said it was too much food. At that point, I just decided to eat from my friend's plate instead. Then, after telling us we were ordering too much, one of my friends was still hungry and wanted to order the steak. Suddenly, the issue was that it was going to take too long to prepare. So first we were told we were ordering too much, and then when we wanted to add a steak later, we were told it would take too long. We eventually managed to order it, accompanied by a pretty obvious eye roll. And to top it all off, when we asked for dessert -- one each -- the server seemed genuinely shocked that four people wanted four desserts instead of sharing one. Honestly, the whole experience was just very weird and uncomfortable. I felt judged the entire time based on how much we wanted to order, and I've never had a server refuse to take my order because they thought I was ordering too much food. The food itself was good, but the service really took away from the experience. Between that and the strict 2-hour window, I'm not sure I'd go back or recommend it, which is a shame because the place itself is absolutely beautiful.

Please stay tuned because our experience is a bit bizarre, and when I say bizarre, I do not mean bad; our experience was absolutely fantastic. It just took an unusual twist. We have been to Mr. Porter twice. The first time was over a year ago, and the second was just recently. The first time had been a very busy day, just seeing all the wonderful sights of Barcelona. At the end of an absolutely fantastic day, we were famished and wanted a great meal and something romantic. After checking local reviews, we decided Mr. Porter would fit exactly what we were looking for. Turning on the GPS, we walked to Mr. Porter and found a very exotic entrance with an intriguing sign and logo. Opening up the large doors and entering the gateway to what was a very exotic even sexy entrance to what would certainly be a charming and romantic experience. At the end of the hallway we stepped through a black curtain to the hostess, a woman completely decked out in a black evening gown. She asked if we had reservations. Fear and trepidation overtook us as we replied no; she smiled and said I have something special for you. She seated us at a large booth in a corner that was ideal for a romantic dinner. The ambiance was perfect, and the candlelight made things even more charming. The service was impeccable and what you would expect from a five-star restaurant. Our dinner that night was absolutely spot on, with us splitting the Porthouse. Perfect char, temperature, and flavor. The wine was ideal and not pricey. Dessert was served on a salt block, which was intriguing. It was enough that we now cook with a salt block at home. As mentioned, service was amazing. Right there at the perfect time never there too much. We finished the night with stars in our eyes. Fast forward to this last trip. Needless to say, we love Barcelona. I mean, who wouldn't! Last time here we stayed at the Le Meridien, and this time we were staying at Sir Victor. Sir Victor and Mister Porter are attached. So when you check into the hotel, you can see into Mr Porter. However, from this view, the restaurant entrance is totally different. Wide open, well lit, and a bar that is now the focal point. It feels different. We were up for an interactive dinner and chose to make a reservation for the chef's counter. Once again, the service was five-star, and the food and the atmosphere were just unbelievable. Oh oh oh soooo good! Engagement at the chef's counter was a special treat. This was so good yet oh so different. We actually thought we were at a different location. We thought it was a second Mr. Porter location in Barcelona. When leaving, we told the hostess we had an incredible evening, and we were glad that we were able to try both of their Barcelona restaurants. She smiled and said we only have one. I was like, no, the one we were at before had this great exotic entrance, red lighting, very sexy; you come through a curtain and very romantic tables. Her smile was bigger, and in professional tones she said Come with me. We followed to a long black curtain; she pulled it back and asked whether the entrance had looked like this. Oh my yes, yes it did! She walked, and we followed. Perhaps you sat here? The restaurant took on a completely different look. We laughed; she laughed. Same restaurant a year later, totally different vibe and appearance. So much so we thought it was a different spot. We can't wait to go back. One of our favorite restaurants in the world. Try it and have your own very unique experience.
