It's a shame, because I was here to eat and not scared of spending money. Stereotypes, am I right? Anyway, I tried a number of items and had some wonderful wines. The service was fine. My bill was €70 for one person, but I stuffed my face. I would go back and try other items for sure.

We went around 2pm approximately, so the only menu available was the tapas. Although there were 6 adults in our party, they were only able to seat us at a outdoor table that only accommodated 4, needless to say, we were cramped but we enjoyed the view. The service was extremely slow but the food made up for the snail pace. The food appears to be cooked in small batches to order as it took almost 20mins to get each plate. The food, however, was delicious! The patatas bravas, the calamari, the chicken strips, the toast...all were well flavored and brought excitement to my palate. I was too famished to take pics. We were extremely hungry so the wait felt like eternity but if you aren't starving and not in a rush, I would recommend this place.

After thirteen hours of touring, I needed a good meal. When I'm traveling, I always save the biggest meal for dinner. I read the reviews of Dune and saw some great photos of various meals. I was in the mood for tapas and salad and some vino. I stepped inside and was greeted warmly. I was offered bar seating or table. I chose a table and my waiter was cheerful and handed me the menu in English. I saw this tapa reviewed on Yelp: Bomba de salmon: a croquette shaped like a ball stuffed with salmon and cheese. I didn't see it on the menu so I decided to still eat like a Catalan and ordered the Paella special with sangria and mozzarella/ tomato salad drizzled with oil and oregano. After he took my order, my waiter served me iced water and amuse bouche: Spanish olives with red peppers. The olives were delicious. My salad was dynamite: every morsel had a great combo of cherry tomatoes with cubed bites of mozzarella and oregano. My paella came out in a cazuel dish: I asked him to replace mussels with more shrimp. The shrimps were sitting on a hot bed of yellow rice. I had to peel the skin into a bowl. The shrimps were meaty however the rice portion tasted a wee bit fishy. I've had many versions of paella and never had a fishy taste. Maybe the mussels are cooked with rice and that's why there was a fishy taste? Not sure... the portion was very filling. ?The Red sangria that accompanied the meal was sweet and delicious. I then decided to try the flan de la casa but they were out. My waiter recommended this glass of tiramisu ice cream with caramel drizzle. Out of this world! He then asked me if I wanted a flavored liquor in the house. I chose the coffee flavored: tasted like sambucca. The menu has a nice variety of dishes like crispy chicken with sweet potato sticks, steak and salads. There are mixed plates and combos to choose from. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu. The diners near me were eating potato braves with croquettes in a spicy sauce. I made small talk with my waiter who is also a chef and vowed to come back. A great meal!

We arrived shortly after opening and there were a few non reserved tables so we promptly snagged a table in the back. The space is small but charming. I would highly recommend making reservations because you do not want to miss this experience. We ordered several dishes and as each one was brought to the table it was evident from plating and scent alone that we were going to be satisfied. Satisfied is not generally what I strive for when dining out on vacation. I want to be transported to the culture and flavor profiles through food. Dinner here was incredible from the attentive but non pretentious service to the sheer quality and preparation of the food. A great date night spot while visiting Barcelona! They prepare your steak how you ask for it and serve it by portions of 100grams. You order the weight you want. Yes, it was very nice to meat you we also ordered the stuffed potato, gnocci, fried provolone and croquette. All solid choices and would absolutely order again.

Everything in Barcelona is adorable, as is Agust Gastro Bar! We started off with some cocktails…read morethat were delicious, but I must note that our server forgot about our drinks...well, I think she did. She said the bar was really busy - but they arrived shortly after we asked about them. The second round was much faster - and they sent complimentary shots to the table. So, you decide. Food: Starters: - Tomato bread, YUM! - Chicken croquet (my favorite) - Scallops (we all decided we could have done without) - Tacos (very juicy). I wish I took a picture of the menu, I don't recall what each dish was, but these are my best guesses. Main course: - Octopus (cooked perfectly!) - Steak (a little raw for my taste, but the potatoes and sauce it came with were great!) - Chicken something in a potato pasta or something like that (skip, too bland) Dessert: We had to get the sorbet in the shape of the succulent. I was very refreshing and better than i expected. The servers made up for the forgotten drinks and were very kind and even gave us recommendations of places to go out that evening. I would definitely go back!

We sat upstairs with a large party and had plenty of space. Our recommender said the food was phenomenal, but I personally found it to be just pretty good. I ordered the Thai vegetarian curry which was very good but salty. A decent amount of vegetables but much more rice than actual curry. My one friend who ordered a dish (which the name of unfortunately escapes me) with prawns, beans, and chorizo also shared this sentiment. Other dishes that received good reviews from the table included a cheese platter, the cactus dessert (mojito mousse and lemon sorbet), the fish of the day (which was cod), and the mushroom risotto. We also ordered a bottle of Cava Montjuic, which tasted similar to many other sparkling white wines. One problem to note was that we were not alerted that the fish of the day had clams atop it, which posed a problem for the recipient of the dish who has a shellfish allergy. The staff was polite and understanding, though she did just have to order and pay for another dish. Overall, nice atmosphere and good food, but not as great as expected.
