    House Salad (no cheese)
    Andy N.

    7 Portes hosted us for a bachelorette dinner on our first full night in Spain and it was pretty good. Our dinner reservation was at 21:30 and like all Spanish/Catalonian meals, we didn't leave until close to midnight. They are known for their large portions of paella here so I was glad to see there was a vegan-friendly one with a medley of veggies including aubergine. My friend and I were able to split their House Salad (€11,50) and just one portion of paella (€20,50), which was honestly perfect for the two of us. The salad was fresh with excellent tomatoes but we found the paella to definitely be on the saltier side. I think I enjoyed the salad more at the end of the day. Ask for oil and balsamic on the side - otherwise they pour a LOT on top of your greens. Service here was pretty good and our waiter took good care of us. With a large group, we dined at our own little corner so it felt like a private room at the end of the day. Food overall was fine but nothing mind blowing. Fun fact: we apparently ate at the same table that Harrison Ford once dined. Must be why they consider themselves to be a popular restaurant in Barcelona.

    Cod Croquettes and Sangria
    Ana C.

    Had a great server (Josué)! Was helpful with recommendations and explaining the different dishes. Was attentive but not pushy or overbearing. He also had a good sense of humor! The cod croquettes were amazing! Tried the esqueixada (cod salad) and it was prepared well but just wasn't for us. The seafood paella was good but would need to try other restaurants to compare. Sangria was very good!

    We came at maybe around 8 pm on a weeknight and were seated right away without a reservation. It was fancy inside and a lot of people. Each dining table had a little plaque saying which famous person sat there before like Picasso or Robert De Niro. Our server was very nice and service was decently quick. We got the paella ( 2 servings ), roasted vegetables, Canolenes 7 Portes, and a seasonal artichokes with Jamon Iberico dish. Everything was very very good, our favorites being the paella and canelones. We even got some free little booklets and a tour of the entire restaurant! Very friendly and great service and great food!

    Best meal we had in Barcelona so far. Great seafood, very fresh and perfectly cooked. Side veggies were amazing. Implacable service and highly personalized. Very charming and classy restaurant. A bit pricey but certainly well worth it.

    7 Portes. Main menu.

    October 7, 2023. Saturday. 11:00 PM. Dinner. I made reservations for this restaurant over a month in advance. This would be our first meal in Spain and I wanted it to be special. We had booked a flamenco show at Tablao Flamenco Cordobes at 9:00 PM, before this meal. However, due to flight delays, we had to reschedule our flamenco show for another day. By the way, if you are in Barcelona, it is well worth seeing this flamenco show! We barely made our reservation to 7 Portes due to there being several hotels with similar names. Needless to say, we showed up at the front desk of 7 Portes with luggage in tow. The host accommodated us, locked up our luggage and sat us immediately. Our waiter, Sebastian, gave us a tour of the upstairs. This had a special private room for two overlooking the outdoor seating area and several group rooms. This place has been in business for over 120 years and the marble tiles, impeccable service and attention to detail tell why. We ordered Paella Parellada (26.50 euros), Paella Manolete (25.50 euros), a bottle of Pago de Carraovejas red wine (60.50 euros), water without gas (3.60 euros), and my wife had flan (7.70 euros). The waiter recommended the red wine. They charged for the bread (2.80 euros) they brought us, but so do all restaurants across Europe. The wine paired beautifully with the two paellas. Of the two paellas, we both enjoyed the Parellada paella more, it contained: chicken, pork loin, squid, Catalan sausage, king prawn, mussels and half a lobster tail. The Manolete has: chicken, sausage, pork loin, cuttlefish, king prawns, mussels and crayfish. The meat and seafood were not overly abundant, but they weren't too skimpy either. They brought generous portions of bread and butter. I liked the nice touch of listing a famous person that had previously sat at our table in the bill. Our famous person was the Italian writer, Andrea Camilleri, who died in 2019. This beautiful, ancient restaurant does indeed have 7 doors, clean bathrooms and outstanding service. Make sure to make a reservation in advance. Although the outdoor seating was nice, I'm glad we choose to eat indoors because we experienced more of the tradition of the restaurant.

    Paella
    Mike H.

    The paella was excellent but so gigantic and overpriced. I ate 1/3 of it despite there being 5 of us. Had snails for the first time. They were cold and in the shell, so they were hard to get out. Not my cup of tea. I'd rather try French escargot for the first time The live pianist played classics Imagine, Here Comes the Sun, and Frank Sinatra

    Apparently I was sitting where Che Guevara sat.

    Food and service were excellent. The atmosphere was subdued but cool. The paella was delicious as was the sangrias we had.

Nestled in an unassuming network of cobble stone lined alley ways are hidden gems worth discovering. We came looking for tapas, paella, sangria; and we found just that. Location: Plaza de España is within a 5 min walk, blocks away from shopping, and 30 minutes from the airport by way of shuttle. Used Google Maps with several sharp turns to find this local favorite. Service: the owner employs his pet Pomeranian, that follows the wait staff unconditionally. This is a no frills restaurant; grab a seat anywhere you like, and order off the menu. What we ate: Table service - pitted olives; briny and herbaceous. So delicious as an appetizer. Crisp Potatoes - served with aioli and red pepper sauce; so simple yet so comforting. Fried Calamari - can't go wrong with crispy calamari. Pork & Mushroom Paella - I know we're used to seeing seafood, but pork and mushroom with crispy rice is different, bold, and worth each bite. Sangria Blanco - I won't lie, it was heaven with the first sip, and it left me wanting more. Unlike its red cousin; white sangria is lighter and more fruit forward. So refreshing! After 18 hours of transiting; this was a delectable experience.

Ziryab seemed to fit the bill, so we made plans to stop here during our first night in the city. Ziryab is located close to the Gothic Quarter, on side street. It's kind of inconspicuous from the outside, but the interior gives way to a really welcoming space. The restaurant is separated into two main areas, with an earth-tone color scheme that has a rustic, almost cave-like aesthetic. The high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows keep the dining room open and spacious. The tapas menu had a good selection, and we decided on several items: pan con tomate, sweet potato rolls, chicken cannelloni, bacon-wrapped figs, croquettes, falafel, and a charcuterie board. All the tapas were great - my favorites were the chicken cannelloni, pan con tomate, and the charcuterie board. The cannelloni especially was a standout - definitely a unique dish, and the chicken was super flavorful. We opted for dessert, and got the feta whip cheesecake - this was great as well. The combination of tang and sweet was a good finisher to our meal. Service was great - everyone was friendly and our dishes were served at a good pace. Overall, I'm glad I tried out Ziryab - the tapas were delicious and atypical of ones you find elsewhere in Barcelona. I would have no qualms returning here for another meal.

We ordered fresh salmon with dill, coroquetas de jamón iberico, a cod fritter, and chicken cannelloni with foie gras and black truffle sauce. We also ordered the pan with tomate, of course to soak up the truffle sauce. The cannelloni was amazing! I mean it melted in your mouth amazing!! After our snacks... We ordered dessert. We ordered their homemade Belgian chocolate ice cream, which is hands-down, the best chocolate ice cream I've ever eaten. And we also ordered their version of a crème brûlée called crema Catalonya! Both desserts were amazing, however, I highly recommend the Belgian chocolate ice cream. Overall, the experience was amazing and I hope to pop in again before we leave. Enjoy!

It's done so right, juicy tangy, bursting with flavors and the pita in the salad is made into a curly flower and gives a delicious crunch.
