    Self-serve tapas bar
    Mike Y.

    The restaurant is basically self-served. You find a table or pick a spot at the bar counter, then you decide what to eat by picking the tapas dishes from the shelves on the bar counter. Each dish has a toothpick. At the end, the waitress counts the number of sticks (each stick is €1.65) and bill you. Food is excellent, especially you get to try many many dishes. We sampled many tapas and all are excellent.

    This was actually our 2nd time to eat here: the first being 2 days ago for late brunch/ early lunch. The spread that morning is what you see in the pictures I posted, fresh and a more extensive selection. The nighttime spread was less, though not in flavor nor desirability haha As we went for a second round they graciously brought out a few new dishes of hot tapas, the ones we got were the mushroom & ham pizza and a chorizo with fried green pepper both very good and satisfying! Service like the first time was quick & helpful, offering our beverages immediately as we sat and coming to check on us when needed. The only reason I gave them 4 was the less selection at night. Other than that we were happy with our dining experience hence, our return.

    Crazy salty.  My boyfriend and I each took one bite and spit out.

    He said that it was slightly different as everything was on bread and a stick and you just eat what you like and count up the sticks and pay.

    Food was amazing! I don't remember the names of the tapas we ordered but everything was delicious!read more

    Oh my goodness this is so good. If I ever go to Barcelona again I would come here…read more Must get: Steak with foie gras on bread 8/10: sooo decadent and luxurious. It's abt 8 euros a piece. Very flavorful and fast experience. Oxtail and mashed potatoes 10/10: the oxtail meet is so tender and flavorful. The mashed potatoes pair so well with the oxtail. Mushroom, steak, and egg yolk 9/10: soo flavorful and balance of veggies and protein. Amazing textures and flavors. Sparkling sangria: 8/10 I don't normally live the taste of alcohol but this was great. Not tooooo strong and if tastes pretty good if you mix it with the orange juice. Fresh orange juice: 10/10 so tangy and delicious. I can't recommend it enough. Patatas bravas: 9/10 solid no complaints! Dessert Tapas: - bread dessert (Tarija): 11/10 amazing dessert that is creamy, cameralized, and has a mochi like texture. This fried chewy dessert is not too sweet and such an affordable price. - coconut pudding 9/10 solid and refreshing if you like flan - bread, chocolate oil, salt 7/10: I live the complex flavors. The chocolate mousse was light and the bread to mousse ratio was perfect. It's a smaller dessert tho I wouldn't recommend it if ur sharing. Service: amazing! Staff I'm everywhere so it was very easy to order more food. Also we were sitting buy the area where they made dessert and they allowed me to record them making it!! Comfortable ambiance great for date night or casual meals!!!

Not only was his service incredible, but he also gave us amazing recommendations for our upcoming trip to Buenos Aires in two weeks. The food was hands-down our best meal in Barcelona. Every dish felt authentic and full of flavor. Our favorites were the accordion-style baked potato topped with creamy aioli and spicy sauce, and the truffle brie toast, which was completely out of this world. To top it all off, the meal ended with a shot of local acorn liquor as we toasted Jordi, our other server, which also made the whole experience feel so special. And shoutout to Flor behind the bar for the fantastic margaritas and sangria! Thank you, Sabastian, Jordi, and Flor for making our Barcelona trip so unforgettable. We'll be talking about this meal for a long time!

The inside of this place js small but has great decor, you feel like your stepping back into medieval times. It's perfectly at home in the gothic quarter. I had the bread to start with the tomato spread, this was very good. The spicy potato was phenomenal, a smothered baked potato in a nice blend of sauces. Then the sea bass and prawns in a coconut milk based soup...the star. Reminded me of a Thai Tom Kha soup. Overall would highly recommend. If I ever return to Barcelona, I will stop in.

    Walking from Barceloneta Beach, I stumbled upon Pasa Tapas and lured in by a very affordable menu…read moredel dia at lunch. Alas it was pretty average but you do have a variety of options and it came with wine which was a nice bonus. Started with some fideuá but found this paella noodle dish a little one note. Ironically the fried whole fishes, which didn't look very appetizing, were surprisingly decent. Crispy fried and served next to some refreshing salad. A simple flan rounds out the meal on a sweet note. Mostly locals inside. Not a destination stop per se but good value at lunch if you happen to be walking by.

    Did not enjoy my experience at all, if not even ruined my experience with great paella!…read more Disclaimer: I went to this place as part of a Sandeman tapas tour. (Was absolute rubbish and waste of time) The service: minimal Food: Below average paella Portion: I have had bigger tapas for babies Drinks: I have no idea what was served. Some form of watered down alco that's neither here nor there All in all, not a good experience at all. Agree I went with Sandeman so part to blame would be them. But my view is that if you love food, care about your customers, love your business; then care for your brand and don't join crappy partnerships. And if you plan to do that; suck it up and serve proper food!
