Absolutely obsessed with this place! Anytime I have a friend in town. I am always making a reservation here. They will stand on the bar and pour drinks in your mouth if that is your vibe, around eight or 9 PM. Perfect location in North Loop to hit some other bars after you're done here. Their food is also delicious but very small bites so I recommend coming here for more lighter meals.

Really enjoyed our night out here! It was a busy Friday night. Glad we made a reservation. The atmosphere is modern, dim, but inviting. Our server and the manager were very attentive throughout the meal. Started with a cocktail and a couple 3oz wines. Love the option to do smaller pours. The cheese, charcuterie, and tapas menu is extensive with something for everyone. We had the machete, the eggplant tapas dish, croquettes, and prawn. Also ordered the small seafoood paella. This was a very satisfying pre-theater meal!

I've always heard great things about this place, and I'm happy to say the food truly lives up to the hype. I came here with a friend and we ordered five different plates to share, all of which were absolutely delightful. We tried the patatas bravas, sheep's cheese, focaccia, gambas en ajillo, and the steak. Out of all five dishes, my favorite was definitely the sheep's cheese plate. The bread it came with was perfectly crispy and full of flavor, and paired with the sheep's cheese, wow!! The portion sizes were also very generous, which pleasantly surprised me, as I was expecting smaller servings. Our waitress was amazing, friendly, attentive, and incredibly helpful. Since it was our first time dining here, we appreciated her guidance on what and how much to order. Lastly, the atmosphere is fun and moody (in the best way). It was a bit dark for my personal taste, but it created a relaxing and enjoyable vibe overall.

This place is lights out! Our server was the BEST!! So friendly, informative and casual. I wish I remember her name. The wine list is fantastic and the food even better. The vibe is dark and romantic yet has a great energy. We can't wait to go back. Signage is basically non existent so just follow the map. Street parking but a short walk is well worth it for this place!!

Loved everything! This is a fun, sexy, elegant wine and tapas bar, something we've been missing in our city. Seems like it's been a good 15 years since we had more spots like this to choose from. My fave thing is to sample different tapas bursting with flavor and paired with delicious wine and cocktails. This is it! The music was great. The service was great. Great vibe. It's open late on weekends. Perfect place to dine with friends or significant other in a cute outfit and keep the party going. You'll be right in the mix in north loop. You don't have to get overly full but will def feel satiated and content. Can't wait to go back!

Patatas bravas-a must!

Visited 10/17/25. Dang Barcelona! I wish I could give you 5/5 and I would if I was just taking service food and drinks into account, but unfortunately we did have to wait for like 30 minutes despite having a reservation which really threw me off. We were actually a few minutes away from just going somewhere else based on this, but I'm glad we got to stay and try because it truly is a really fun place with good options for tapas and shared style plates. Service was really great and our server had awesome recommendations and really took the time to check on us despite it being so busy. My sister and I got 3 oz sizes of wine so we could try a few which was a fun option. Hot tip is to put in your paella order right away if hungry because it will take awhile to cook so we did this. We also ordered the mushrooms focaccia and patatas bravas. All three of these were slam dunks and I would definitely recommend. The mushrooms paired with the focaccia were perfection. The paella was super crispy with a great variety of veg and I would love to try the seafood one in the future. Overall, really fun albeit busy place. Prepare to wait even with a reservation due to slow table turnover.

I stopped by here for happy hour as my first time and it was amazing! I am vegan and our server Eva took the menu and marked everything that would work for me with my dietary restriction which I really appreciated. They have a great tapa deal on happy hour and the wine we had was delicious. We ended off with the lemon poppyseed vegan ice cream and were blown away, it was so creamy! I'm looking forward to coming back to try more menu items , the restaurant is so cute inside as well. They don't have parking that I'm aware of so you have to pay for street parking, but we didn't have any trouble finding a spot.

Barcelona wine bar was so incredibly fantastic!! The service was 20/10. I love the variety of food, we had these fried balls, crispy brussel sprouts, chicken paella, and steak, and more which I ate too fast so I forgot to take pictures. Everything was incredible and had a depth of flavor. It was perfect for our group of 5 to share a meal!! Loved the vibes of the place. We went on a Tuesday and they even gave out shots around 8pm!! Such a fun place and highly recommend!!

Been here a handful of times and the last few times the staff has been a little snarky. The most recent time that I came, our waitress was not helpful whatsoever when inquiring about the menu items as we had no idea which tapas to choose, when asking or inquiring for her help, she looked visibly annoyed. However, can't fault the restaurant for her bad behavior, I will say that my close friend got violently ill the next few days after consuming something from the table and I'm not really sure which of the items that we ate made her so sick. I suspect that the food was handled improperly. Really disappointed because I really liked this place but it's overpriced and if you're just gonna get sick after eating it, it's not worth it.

Mussels
Tpl K.

Pork belly was tender and melt-in-your-mouth, with a red sauce that kept it from feeling too heavy. Prawns were flavorful and well-executed. The button mushrooms were a pleasant surprise -- very soft, juicy, and full of flavor. Mussels were a miss -- small and didn't taste fresh. Tried white sangria for the first time -- light, crisp, and nicely balanced with citrus and fruit. Really enjoyed it! Not ideal for dates -- music was so loud we had to shout to hear each other.

Such a cute spot! The vibe is warm and inviting -- perfect for dates or catching up with friends. The wine and cheese selection is amazing, definitely the highlight for me. I also really enjoyed the paella and polpo -- super flavorful and well-cooked. Only downside is that the seating can feel a bit tight since the tables are close together, but it's still totally worth it. I'd 100% come back just for the wine and cheese alone!

potato's bravas
Sadie S.

to start, something i ate had my stomach f*cked this past week... NOMd: - seared prawns. succulent shrimp that were cooked well. very oily tho from the chimichurri that didn't have much flavor. i love shrimp so it was still one of my fav items of the night. - bay scallops. it was giving potato salad. the celery root tasted like carrots. very dill-forward but i didn't mind the salad. the scallops would've been good if they were seared. - focaccia. decent. - truffled bikinis. i didn't like this at all but my friend liked it. the bread did have a nice toast crunch tho - croquettes. these were bomb so cheesy and perfect size. - cheese and crackers. i don't remember which ones we got but wasn't the best. pretty dry and chalky. - albondigas. solid meatballs and red sauce. - paella salvaje. very heavy on the stomach for sensitive tummies. the pork belly was buttery and melted in your mouth. chicken was decent. - potatos bravas. these were cooked to perfection but without the aioli wouldn't have any flavor. YUMd: - espresso martini. absolutely not. - tea time. with tito's. this was so good and light we had 3. - pica pica. decent. could really taste the peppercorn and ginger service, etc.: idk if our waiter was having a bad night but the attitude.. like ok girl. the ambience was smooth and sedative in the best way but that's really all. would maybe come back for the tea time, croquettes and to try other items but won't be running. everything came out fairly quick except for the paella which they were transparent about the cook time.

Potatas bravas with sauce on the side
Sheri S.

I knew when I saw this spot it would be a hit. The fact that it already has a national footprint made me feel it knew what it was doing. On a Friday night I had dinner with friends in the main area and then ventured to the bar area for part 2 of the evening. As I entered, the venue felt very fun and lively. For dinner we shared the Grilled Shrimp Cauliflower, and Potatas Bravas. I also got the Olive Oil Cake not shown here which was divine. Everything was good, the portions were decent and good for sharing. The prices were also good and definitely reasonable for the area. Definitely going to make this spot a part of my rotation when I am in town.

See all

Small Hours is such a cool concept. It feels like a European wine bar dropped right into a…read moreneighborhood setting. The wine list is really thoughtful and leans toward smaller, lesser-known producers and unique regions. Even if you know wine well, there are still plenty of interesting picks here. Just note that by-the-glass options are limited, so it's more of a place where you end up ordering a bottle. The space is beautifully designed. Very minimal, clean, and intentional. It feels elevated without being overdone. It is definitely expensive for what it is. Both the wine and food lean high in price, but you're also paying for the atmosphere and overall experience. The menu is also a bit different in a fun way. The tinned fish selection stands out and isn't something you see often. The radish butter and bread was a highlight and absolutely worth ordering. Service is a little unconventional since you order at the counter, which feels a bit off given the pricing, but everything still runs smoothly.

Small, but mighty. Cozy, but not necessarily comfortable. Great wine, good food…read more The concept is great! A fabulous wine menu and knowledgeable staff. We wanted a recommendation and the wine picked for us was excellent. Went with the Plavac Milos. The food is honestly incredible! The carrots were my favorite. Someday I'll get enough courage to try the tinned fish. I wish seating was a little more comfortable for the whole "drink a bottle and stay awhile" vibe. It also can get pretty loud when it's busy in the tight quarters.
