The atmosphere is very pleasant & in good weather the beer garden is large enough to seat many but not so big that it's too loud for normal conversation. The prices are really very affordable, especially for the scrumptious paella for two... actually enough for two adults & a youngster. Love this place. Great to meet friends & enjoy a relaxing evening eating & laughing together without any stress.

Lucky me I changed the drink with my hubby. The moscow mule was very fresh and tasty. - The plate.... njammie ! - The tapas: very good. The tortilla was not our favourite (too sweet due to the use of sweet potatoes) but I guess other persons do like it. I would like to recommand this place.

This place is mediocre. I went with a friend who had been many times and liked it a lot, but I…read morefound the service poor, the waiter rude, and the atmosphere dirty and loud. The food was good. We had a mixed salad, fried anchovies and seafood paella. The salad was average, the anchovies were perfect, the paella was a bit bland with green beans, small tasteless shrimp, four mussels and a few calamari rings. We had heard they started taking credit cards and confirmed that with the hostess when we arrived and were seated but when we went to pay the waiter said they only took cash (am bar) and gave us attitude before eventually getting the credit card reader.

Enjoyed the razor clams - rarely on menus - very simple with olive oil; amazing duck confit with carrots, celery; fantastic pulpo al gallego. Larger portions than usual Spanish tapas. Service was spotty - the waitress seemed out to lunch and when we ordered a bottle of wine she brought a different bottle already open explaining that the one we ordered was too warm.

This was not an exception. The food was VERY salty. We ordered Jamon Serrano pata negra but they told us they didn't have it. The garlic chicken was good but not authentic Spanish style.

We had a reservation, but (unsurprisingly) the place was still empty at 8pm on a Thursday. We ordered some wine which was well-priced and so-so, but the food was truly disgusting. Fishy, old-tasting, nasty shrimp. Overcooked meats floating in thick, greasy sauces. Tacky, cafeteria-like plating...just slop, basically. Luckily we had only started with a few tapas, so we escaped without much damage. Only positive: Walking distance from Bar Raval, which saved our night.

Yes, you sometimes have to wait a bit before the waiter notices that you want to order another beer but all this unimportant shortcomings somehow manage to sum together into an extremely inviting, relaxed an cosy location, a location where: - you can spend a perfectly relaxed evening chatting with your friends after a stressful day - you order warm meals of the day (listed on the wall) or simple but tasty tapas (on the menu) - a trumpeter comes around to enhance the atmosphere with live sound - the staff is friendly and unobtrusive - the spirit of Kreuzberg mixes up with the feeling of Spanish siesta P.S. Opening hours of this café are a secret to me. Once I tried to visit it on Friday at half past one p.m. and it was closed but then the same evening around 8 p.m. it was open
