Omg...first time eating paella and it was AMAZING! Found this place on yelp and the reviews don't lie. It's a little hidden so it took some time finding it, but once we were inside we're we're so impressed by how kind everyone is. We came as a starving party of 4 right before close and without a reservation. Instead of turning us away, the manager opened her arms and fed us the best meal we've had so far. We started with a pitcher of Sangria became overwhelmed by all the flavors and fresh fruit. First course was the octopus which was great. So light and crispy and delicious. Then came the main dish...seafood paella. A must try for sure. We ordered 4 individual portion but to save space they served it in 2 huge pans. Shrimp, muscles, squid, clams...It was all in there. The rice was so flavorful and after the first night I was in heaven. When you come to Barcelona you MUST come here read more

Just go, trust me. It was an amazing experience. Read reviews from yelp and it was super helpful. Please make a reservation. It's online and quite easy to do so. We made a reservation the night before. Went for dinner around 21:30 and it was packed. Since we had a reservation, we waited for 3 minutes for the table to setup. Like most recommendations, we had the duck and the seafood paella. We also had the steak tartare. Most meals can be shared amongst 2 people. Have a great time - I am confident you will. read more

I did not have a reservation but just got lucky since there was a cancellation. The seating at the bar is open but it is quite small. Be sure to call ahead if you plan on dining here. Mussels in yellow curry-aniseed sauce - The highlight of my night! The mussels were perfectly arranged on the plate with a delicious, creamy curry sauce. Some bread would be perfect to scoop up all the sauce. Seafood Paella - The portion is per person. Remember to mention this when ordering because it is huge! Filled with prawns, mussels, clams, and calamari! There's a table placed over a glass floor right under the stair well. It would be awesome to dine at this table but I think you have to request it or just get lucky. Don't forget to take a look down it when passing by. Try to spot the skeleton down there! read more

Arume - Duck paella - Mediterranean Near Me - Barcelona, B

Holy moly I just finished dinner here and had to write a review as soon as I had time. This place is really as good as everyone says! To be fair, I'm a tourist, but dang, Arume impressed me. We got to Arume about 5 minutes after it opened for dinner and found a long line out the door. We were worried that we would be waiting for a while, but luckily we were seated within about 25 minutes. My mom and I shared the tempura fish appetizer and a single portion of the duck paella (which was quite large) as an entree. With our beer and sangria, it was more than enough to fill us up. Our waiter made sure to check up on us throughout our meal and even gave us chocolate sherry on the house for dessert. I'd definitely recommend Arume to anyone considering an amazing dinner with fantastic service. Maybe make a reservation to be safe or line up before they open! Regardless, best meal in Barcelona, hands down. read more

A MUST TRY! I would give Arume more stars if I could! Duck paella. Changed my life. Best food I've ever had. There are other dishes that were great as well but the duck paella was everything. I was so sad when we finished it. Duck paella. On the night we went there was a prix fixe menu. The other dishes we ordered off of it were: the beef tartare, sea bass ceviche, beef cheeks, and each of the dessert items. But duck paella was clearly the star. In each of the dishes, all the ingredients worked well with each other. For the beef tartare, it was probably one of the best, if not the best, I've ever had! What seem like simple ingredients were combined and layered nicely to leave a deliciously memorable flavor. The seabass ceviche had a lovely soup at the end, and I enjoyed the toasted corn bits. The beef cheeks was amazing! It was nicely topped with a sauce with hints of apricot. The flan like dessert was fine but the gelato dessert with the pop rocks and a cookie was what ended my meal well. But nothing was better than the duck paella. It was just so damn good...! Duck paella! The service can be slow, but the staff was super friendly and from what I can tell accommodating. Our dinner turned into a late-night outing and I didn't care that it did. The food was worth the wait. Reco - come early or make reservations (and don't be late!!!). We were in BCN during world mobile Congress so our walking in early plan didn't work but we got seated and had the best food experience ever. Duck paella! (For those interested, the duck paella had a very warm, homey flavor that was comforting to eat. It reminded me of a Korean dish called jangjorim. The paella was accompanied with a garlic whip, but the garlic didn't over power it in any way. It was a pleasant surprise and it did change the flavor of the paella, but in a good way.) read more

Stayed in Barcelona for 10 days and this was one of only two restaurants that we had to come back to. Everything we had was phenomenal. The mussels were the best in the entire city and both paellas were wonderful. Large portions great for sharing. Get a reservation to ensure you don't wait too long. read more

We decided to check paella off our list at this restaurant because the pictures and reviews looked too good to pass up. They do take reservations so if you can make one, do it. We came before it opened and there was already a line out the door! Thankfully they were able to seat us without a reservation. They were super busy already and they took quite a looonggg time to get our order. About 20 mins. We ordered the octopus and mussels for apps, and both the paella's to try (seafood & duck) and my aunts bf ordered a chicken dish off the menu. The apps came in pretty quick which was good. The octopus was super soft and came with this nice sauce. I would recommend that. The mussels were average. Now between the 2 paella's, the duck is definitely better! Super flavorful and it came with this garlic cream sauce. It was good. The seafood was good as well but it was a little on the salty side. My aunts bf really loved his chicken dish. 4 nights into Barcelona and be said that's the best dish he had so far, which shocked me. (he is SUPER picky that's why and doesn't eat anything) Glad he enjoyed that. We ordered sangria and a blackberry mojito as well. We didn't know that we had a choice to choose between a red, white, or a sparking Spanish? wine of sangria until we heard the waiter said it to the party next to us. We were not given that option and assumed they gave us the Spanish one because it was a little fizzy. The party near us got their paellas before us and we sat and ordered first. Prepare to wait a while if they're busy which seems to always be the case. It was hard to flag someone because we were seated upstairs. Food was good but it wasn't something that wowed me like the other places we had tried in Barcelona. read more

Food: duck paella was a bit salty, but seriously amazing. I had to wait awhile for the food, but it was so worth it!!! Ceviche- very good, seafood was very fresh and with great flavor. They give you a ton of fish too, not just veggies and fruits. SangriA- order a pitcher. You'll thank me later. Overall, more expensive for tapas. But honestly worth it for quality of food and service! read more

Arume - Duck paella - Mediterranean Near Me - Barcelona, B

So during our visit to Barcelona we wanted a good place for paella, we were staying about a 5min walk from this place and looked at the reviews and decide we wanted to give it a try. We did make a reservation beforehand, so I will recommend to do so at least the night before. When we got there we got acknowledged and sat right away. There were two waiters which were very helpful and just awesome. We started with the Sangria and BlackBerry mojito; both were tasty. Then we started with the Spanish tortilla (which was DELICIOUS) and the chorizo tacos (forgot the actual name). Both were phenomenal. Main dishes were the Duck paella (which I'm still having dreams about) and the lamb shoulder because the special was not being served that night. Both dishes were beyond what we could've wanted! It was just a great experience and DELICIOUS! read more

was looking for a good paella spot in Barcelona and this place def hit the spot! would recommend trying both the seafood and duck paella as they both taste really different but equally yummy! my parents thought it was a bit salty but my brother and I thought it was fine. we didn't have a reservation but the service was quick and nice despite the language barrier. it was a nice sit in place and wasn't that far a walk from a lot of the hotels! pls follow @catchomps on insta!! read more

Arume has been our best find in Barcelona. Tucked away in a neighborhood, it is a special find. We were welcomed and served enthusiastically. We started with the special burrata salad, the ceviche, and the Thai mussels. All were terrific, but the ceviche was my favorite. The three of us shared the duck and seafood paellas - plenty of food and the best we've had. The bottle of house wine was a perfect complement. We finished with the bread pudding ("Torrija de Manuel") and cookie with violet ice cream. Yes, this was the most expensive dinner we have had in Spain, but still a bargain compared to a similar quality restaurant in the US. read more

Arume was superlative with just two minor flaws. One, the Duck Paella was like a soupy porridge. And two, the Duck Paella was mushy mush. Now I realize that, technically speaking, that's only one flaw, but it was worth mentioning twice. Otherwise, there is A LOT to like about Arume. The Vibe: Alive and cozy! Arume is popular. No res means bar seating only AND a wait. The Drinks: * House Sangria was fruity ... I mean FRUITY! * Blackberry Mojito was dark and fruity fun. * Hendricks's Gin & Tonic was refreshing with cucumber slices. The Service: Arume is soooo busy, but the crew were busting their butts to serve everyone with a smile. Gràcies! Fantastic Food: * Sea Bream Flame Tataki Perfection should be added to the list of ingredients including Seaweed, Pickles, Spring Onions, and Salmon Caviar. * Milk Lamb with Glazed Eggplant and Sour Cream The flavors and tender meat were wonderful. My only wish is that it was larger so I could enjoy it even more. Fair Food: * Uncle Walter's Ceviche Walter must be a cooler uncle than mine because his ceviche with Almond Milk, Pomegranate, and Pine Nuts is cool. * Pan Artesano Bread and Olive Oil The little tube of olive oil and fresh bread were a good match. Food Fail: Duck Paella with Padron Peppers The duck flavor was fine, but overwhelmed by the cream while the peppers added no spice or zest. It would of been ok except the rice mix was a congee-style paella and I now realize I don't like that style of paella. Otherwise, Arume was a wonderful (and popular) dinner discovery in Barcelona. I recommend getting reservations and overlooking the flawed duck paella. read more

This was absolutely our favorite meal in Barcelona. I am raving to everyone we meet on our travel about the duck paella, yes, you heard me right. The duck Paella is what dreams are made of, it trumps every paella I have had before, even the seafood paella. The blackberry mojito is sweet and tangy. A first, you don't see that back in the states and it makes you wonder why? The drink was a hit! We enjoyed the pork dish that was cooked to perfection. Our server, Brandon, regaled it's of stories and kept us laughing all night. You must plan to visit, trust me, you'll have a great evening. read more

Made a reservation online and came for dinner. Would definitely recommend making a reservation although you can get seated if you just show up, it might take a while. Started with the fish tempura and the crispy octopus. Both were tasty and not heavily battered and I would highly recommend both. Also tried the grilled calamari with fennel. The calamari was good and the fennel added an interesting flavor. For the mains I tried the duck paella and the beef cheek.They were both wonderful in very different ways. The paella was great, and the duck is their signature paella. The beef cheek was tender and fell apart in my mouth. The tonka bean panda cotta and torrija de Manuel ended our meal. Both were good but probably overkill on a great meal. One of my favorite restaurants in Barcelona! read more

This place was a little overrated in my opinion and it was located in a dark alleyway. I was recommended to go here bc it's one of the few places where you can order a personal sized paella. We went for the duck which was AMAZING, don't get me wrong, but I felt like our waiter took advantage of our lack of knowledge and upsold us on the size considering he knew we also ordered other things. We inquired if the "one person" paella would suffice for two people and he said no. He lied. It was so flavorful and they were generous with the duck but bc we got the bigger size, we just got so sick of it so fast. The scallops had great flavor and texture, but for 15 euros a piece, it wasn't worth it. The curry mussels were also good but nothing to write home about. I also ordered their blackberry mojito which was fantastic! It was a creeper, one of those babies messed me the hell up. I can't remember the exact price but I recall it being more than what it was worth and the service was slow. read more

One of the best meals I had in Barcelona within the few days I was there. I found this place through Trip Advisor and the reviews did not disappoint. I worked with Arantxa on arranging reservations and because we had a group of 8+, we had to choose a course menu. 4 appetizers to share, 3 entrees to choose from, and a dessert. Plus a bottle of wine for every 2 people! Depending on menu items it ranges from 40-60 euros per person. We were able to swap some choices around which was great! Each dish I tried was amazing. We had (disclaimer: the names were much more descriptive): 1. Crispy octopus 2. Ceviche 3. Steak Tartare 4. Bread with some amazing EVOO 5. Glazed calamari 6. Iberian pork ribs 7. Duck paella 8. Violet ice cream My whole team and I loved every single thing about our meal, and more importantly, it was CHEAP! Please make reservations at Arume while in Barcelona. read more

They had everything firing on all cylinders this night. The service was friendly, efficient and top notch. Every dish we ordered was great, it felt like they just kept one upping one and another. Our preference was for the duck over seafood paella. If you are Barcelona make sure to stop by and indulge. read more

Stopped in with my daughter and grandsons shortly after they opened on Sunday and sat down to a fantastic lunch of seafood paella. Reservations are a good idea as the restaurant was filled by the time we left. It's hard to find but well worth the effort. Friendly staff and excellent food. Gluten free options available. Highly recommend! read more

Arume - Duck paella - Mediterranean Near Me - Barcelona, B

Had my first authentic paella here just last night. The restaurant itself is a bit quaint so if they're closed you might miss it if you're not paying attention. We couldn't make reservations earlier on but there was an older couple ahead of us who said they had told him that there were a couple of bar spots available so we stayed in line. When the doors opened, the hostess alternated between seating reservations and a few people without one which I thought was really nice. After telling us she had a table for us she said the only catch was that she'd need it back by 8:30 which was more than enough time for us and we didn't feel rushed whatsoever. Their sangria was so beautiful and delicious and the paella itself was outstanding. Definitely recommend Arume to anyone in Barcelona-tourist or not! read more

Now this, this is the spot to eat and drink at. I don't drink but I was tempted by the Sangria my friends ordered. It was made right in front of us by the coolest bartender, Michele, that I've ever met. The server was awesome too. But to the good part, the food. Wow it was amazing. The paelle, the lamb, amazing. Finished it off with an espresso and couldn't have had a better experience. Oh yeah and the ambiance is amazing. Everyone was awesome. read more

You can't go to Barcelona and not have Paella. But when you are traveling alone, it is hard to find a place that serves paella for one.

Came here for a late Barcelona dinner on a Thursday night. We arrived around 20 minutes prior to closing but the food and service was still excellent! We started with the blackberry mojitos which were so delicious. Fresh blackberry juice, not syrupy and not too sweet. It was loaded with tons of mint and garnished with blackberry, raspberry and some indigenous fruit from South America. I started with the ceviche which was unlike anything I'd ever had before. It was fermented in almond milk along with the usual citrus juices and also featured watermelon. So fresh and so delicious. For my main course I had the seafood paella which was chock full of shrimp, octopus, mussels, and oysters. Decadent, flavorful and so satisfying. The service was outstanding our waitresses were super friendly. I definitely recommend checking it out! read more

1st, I wish we would have made reservations but they were still able to fit us in, Great News 7! 2nd this place is cute & touristy and when you see and smell the food you know why! 3rd, if you are tall like me watch your head. Service was outstanding and the food will not disappoint. We had the duck and seafood paella and we loved our dishes. The drinks were on point, when you get a chance to eat here the sangria and blackberry mojito are a must have...other than that the experience was great and we look forward to going back one day. read more

Food was great! Service was very good. We enjoyed eating in the courtyard. A wonderful experience.

We went here on our last day in Barcelona and it was a little hard to find, definitely off the beaten path and about a 15 minute walk from La Rambla. We made a reservation a head of time on their website which was super easy and went on a weeknight. We ordered the seafood paella, duck paella, and Iberian ribs (soft and falling off the bone). Everything was delicious but I definitely liked the seafood paella the best. It was flavorful and had tons shrimp/mussels/clams. The food came out fast and it was definitely our tastiest meal in Barcelona. The prices were very reasonable and the white wine was cheap (3 euros for a glass) and the again, the best I've ever had. Service was excellent and the ambiance was great (reminded me of eating in someone's house since we sat in the back). read more

This place is a must! Reservations a day or two prior recommended! This place gets packed fast and the wait can be long even with reservations! We waited around 45 mins to an hour from when our reservations was sche for but I promise the wait is worth it! The food was absolutely mouth watering, definitely take recommendations from the server, they know exactly what will please you! Our server was amazing, we told him exactly what we liked and the kitchen came out with the most authentic dishes we'd had during our trip to Spain! My favorite was the seafood paella, seasoning wasn't too spicy and just the right amount of flavoring! If you're a fan of takoyaki then the crispy octopus is definitely a must! read more

Came here with reservations booked a few months ahead while planning for our trip to Barcelona. We had a huge group of 19 and the restaurant accommodated our party. Instead of ordering a la carte, we decided at the time of booking that we were going to order their set meals. They offered a 40 euro and a 60 euro menu, and each "order" was meant for 2 people and also came with a bottle of wine. Basically, we ordered 5 of the 40 euro menu and 5 of the 60 euro menu. Upon arrival and getting seated at two big tables, it seemed a bit chaotic on the outside because the servers weren't too sure how to give us all the food that we wanted, but they somehow made it work and we just decided to swap plates back and forth between our two tables. All of the food was delicious. Stand-outs included the duck paella, the dry aged beef, the scallops, the mussels (some of the best I've had actually!), and the Iberian pork (don't be afraid of the fact that it's raw...or well at least I didn't and I'm here writing my review feeling just fine). Big shoutout to our server, who was so patient, funny, and friendly. He kept our glasses filled and constantly came to check on us so he could clear off empty dishes and bring on more food. While the set menu generally allowed us to either make a choice between the white and red wines, he also gave us the option of picking cava and sangria, which was wonderful. I highly recommend Arume! read more

So good that we went here two nights in a row. Barcelona is known for its amazing food and tapas, but Arume was the highlight of my entire trip in Spain and easily tops all dishes I tried. We got there at 10pm with no reservation and had to wait about 40 minutes. The place is small but constantly packed, so make reservations ahead of time if you can. Well worth the wait. The atmosphere is wonderful. A little more compact than I expected but so cozy and lively. Our server truly made the experience. She was filled with laughter and energy. What was even better was the food. Arume is famous for their duck paella so we had to order it. We also got the Thai curry mussels, tacos, calamari, seafood paella, and all of the desserts. This was probably one of my most memorable and top food experiences in awhile. The duck paella lived up to its hype. Creamy, salty, and extremely flavorful (not to mention piping hot!! Be careful!). The portion size was good enough to split for two, although one alone can definitely finish it given how tasty it is. I prefer the duck over the seafood, so if you had to pick one, duck would be it. The curry mussels also stole the show. I would skip the tacos as it was average at best, but every other menu on the item won't disappoint. We topped it off with their creative dessert menu. Again, interesting flavors I would've never tried by myself but here it was presented well. If I ever come back to Barcelona, this will be my first stop. read more

! BOOK AHEAD ! We booked for right on opening time for 7 PM which is nowhere near peak dinnertime in Barcelona and yet there was still a queue of people waiting outside and it became instantly packed. I highly recommend making a reservation ahead of time to avoid disappointment. You can easily book online which is what we did. --- ~ Atmosphere: Arume has a lovely romantic atmosphere. It's situated in a forgotten alleyway and would be quite the epitome of hole in the wall because there is literally not much else in that alley. When walking here, we definitely had to stop and check a few times because we thought we were in the wrong place! ~ Customer Service: The customer service here was lovely. Everyone was seated promptly and food came out a lot quicker than expected given the large amount of tables who all came in at once. I was most definitely very impressed with their efficiency. A massive round of applause to the chefs! ~ Food: Everything we tried was stunningly delicious. I'll give the rundown: STARTERS: -- Spanish Betanzos Tortilla with Iberian pork pancetta (9 euros) -- Basically an egg omelette with pancetta inside. Honestly I had no idea what I ordered when I got this. I was expected a flour tortilla so I didn't realise it would more like an egg omelette. However, it was AMAZING! The egg was perfectly cooked and just the right amount of runny in the middle. It was stuffed with potatoes as well which paired perfectly with the egg and soaked up all the flavours. -- Atlantic fish tempura, lime, ginger and citrus mayonnaise (10 euros) -- Perfectly fried fish and the mayonnaise was delicious! -- "The Galician emigrant" Chorizo taco, cottage cheese, chipotle and " pico de gallo " (9 euros) -- Came with 2 tacos to share and tasted great! -- Duck paella rice with Padrón peppers (16.50 euros) -- We ordered a smaller portion that was for a single person which lowered the price (I forgot to how much). For 2 people it was MASSIVE so well worth the price tag. To be honest, this was my least favourite dish ironically because I felt it was a little underseasoned in contrast to some reviewers saying it was too salty. -- Milk lamb -- I forgot how much it was but I believe it was just a little under 20 euros. It came with aubergine and some soured cream. The lamb was perfectly cooked and very delicious. Funnily enough the aubergine on the side was some of the best aubergine I've ever had! --- I'd be really keen to come back to Arume to try some of the other dishes they have on offer. Everything we saw come out on other tables looked awesome and we really enjoyed our own meals! The price is not too heavy for what you get and it was well worth it. read more

This was my second favorite dinning experience in Barcelona which, coincidentally, is owned by the incredibly hospitable Eduardo. The food is Galician and delicious. We started off the night with their signature cocktail, blueberry mojito, which is made with freshly made blueberry juice and you can tell the difference immediately upon the first sip. The food was even better. Our party of five opted for the following dishes: octopus , corvina ceviche, fresh tagliatelle and prawns, duck pella, seafood paella, and a burrata salad. They were all delicious as were the desserts(deconstructed flan, which was really a pana cotta, and a delicious bakes cookie with lilac gelato). I highly recommended but make sure you make resos because it gets packed by locals and tourists alike. read more

Definitely make a reservation. This was easily performed online. We walked to the restaurant from a rental apartment about 10 minute walk. The neighborhood in which the restaurant is located is off the tourist path and thus more locals. The other restaurants and shops in the narrower walk paths are also not as glitzy. The entrance of the restaurant is snug and where the can seat some walk up diners (this is NOT a good idea as the wait will be long and the seats awkward at best- make a reservation). We were seated in a back room. The seating is spacious but the air temperature is a bit warm for a person from Seattle. This is the only reason I gave it a 4 star instead of five. The air conditioning was just not enough for me and my group and thus we are and literally ran out skipping desert so as to be able to cool off in the hot and humid summer air of Barcelona. We had 5-6 starters. All were really nice, two fresh fish appetizers. Spanish omelette, eggplant, and the tempura fish. My favorite was the gazpacho. We ordered all the paella- seafood, duck and lobster. These were all good. The seafood and the lobster were essentially the same and thus I recommend just the seafood. The duck paella had a very interesting flavor and was my favorite. The wine list was ok and we had a rioja which was chilled but warmed to room rapidly (due to room temperature situation). Prices very reasonable, heavily influenced by the wine prices being so reasonable. The wine was very nice and about 25 euros. Prices for all the paella was reasonable and really reasonable to share with 2 per order. Overall we will come back. We will make a reservation on line, take a cab instead of walking through the neighborhood and take a cab home. We will hope for a table in the front room. read more

I'd say one of my favorite places I ate at while on my trip to Spain and Portugal. Trust me, I ate at many place ha.. Came here based on the yelp reviews and trust me the food did not disappoint. Had to go with the Duck Paella, crispy octopus, sangria, and two blackberry mojitos just because they were that delish!

We have found this nice restaurant on Yelp. We cam here with a group of 5 people and every one ordered one starter and one main course. We ended up ordering more than 10 dishes and two bottles of wine and blackberry cocktail: cod, beef, oysters, clams, duck...,etc and the bill came to about 220 euros, which is about 55 euros per head with drink. Everything has lovely taste and is very compliment to each other. The food has distinctive taste on it own. The price is reasonable regarding the quality of the food we had. I highly recommend that you book one day in advance. We definitely came back here to enjoy all of the food. There is another sister restaurant nearby and you also need to book in advance too. read more

10/10 duck paella!! And mussels were super juicy and delicious. We shared a bottle of wine but the sangria looked really pretty and tasty. I'd definitely recommend it based on my neighbors feedback. A sharing of one serving for two people and other dishes is satisfying. We accidentally ordered a serving for 2 but still finished it because it was that good. Highly recommend coming during slower times or calling for a reservation. We got really lucky and waited less than 30 minutes but other folks waited an hour or more and others after us got turned away. read more

A must-visit place for dinner if you're in Barcelona more than a few days. We started off with a pitcher of sangria at the bar while we waited for a table. Be careful of the plexiglass floor when you enter the second dining room - too much sangria and you'll think you're falling! We shared many dishes, all of which I'd have again: Pulpo Crocante (Crispy Octopus), Alcachofas Templadas (Warm Artichokes), Ceviche de Tio Walter (lol, Uncle Walter's Ceviche), Vieiras (Scallops), and of course the Paella Arume (their seafood paella). Everything was lovely - tasty, cooked to perfection with different temperatures and textures. The portions are small so you'll order a lot of food! To drink at dinner I enjoyed some cava, which was served with a baby heirloom tomato. Definitely recommend and definitely would return. read more
