    Paella (mix)
    Ed W.

    Best restaurant for paella in Barcelona. Restaurant is rustic and warm. Service is outstanding and very friendly. A friend leaving in Barcelona recommended it to me saying... "the place is unpretentious and out of the tourist seen" prices are incredible. We ordered a few things like tapa de chorizo picante (very good), Greek salad... skip it... and the mix paella for 2. We were 3. But I would say... order for 3 because you will not be able to stop eating this Paella. It is Delicious! The rice itself is so creamy, flavorful and tasty.... the socarrat... ufff. This paella was also full of seafood, pork, chicken and even meat. Just incredible. Do come here... but please don't tell anyone else about this place... we don't want it to change.

    We had a full schedule so we decided to take a nap and woke up passed 9pm. Read that Bosque Palermo was open late till 2am so we hurried and got there around midnight (prevcovid times). I found out that the owner happened to be Filipina so that made me an instant, distant younger brother, from another father (hahah). It's a Filipino thing. I even got to practice my Tagalog, in the heart of Barcelona. I have to say for being open late - I was very surprised how good their paella was. It was very fresh and so tasty. Huge portions also especially the giant prawns. I had a local Catalan beer that was suggested by the owner but couldn't remember the name. It was really refreshing and excellent. We'd definitely come back here when we return to visit Barcelona when things settles and it's safe to travel again. Cheers!

    Excellent food, excellent service . Thank you Leila for all recommendations and taking care of us during our visit . This restaurant not to be missed if visiting Barcelona .

    The best paella and spaghetti I've had in my life, for my first meal in Spain, this spot hit soooo good. It hit top tier Spanish food for me and so close to all the major sites. Definitely recommend checking out this spot for your next Barcelona visit and make sure to order the 4 cheese spaghetti. They do speak English here as well and service was great.

    Mixed paella for two- mixed = seafood and meat
    mong linh n.

    Today is Monday and we arrived here around 930 PM. Crowded but there were seats available for two, so we were promptly seated. This review is only based off of the mixed paella which consists of seafood and meat. Coming in, we knew that the serving is going to be a lot, so that is all we came for even though we were sOo tempted for other things. She let us know that the paella would take about 25 mins, and asked if we wanted any appetizers while we waited. We kindly declined and ordered a liter of sangria to sip on. It did take about the 20-25 for it to arrive, and I must admit it was the best paella I've had anywhere and the best I've had in Barcelona. We tried to do our best to lick the pan clean, and so we did. Left feeling 10 lbs heavier but it was def worth it! If you're looking for the best paella I highly recommend trying it here! Don't just stop by any spot because paella's are everywhere. Don't fall into the tourist trap!

    One of the few spur of the moment places we popped into and thoroughly enjoyed. Waiter constantly checked in and provided superb service. Didn't have expectations for 10euro paella but this would be my neighborhood spot if I lived in Barcelona. The baby squid provided a delightful burst of flavor and texture!

    The most amazingggg Paella here. We met amazing people at dinner since the place is so intimate and they also enjoyed their dishes. Nearly everyone ordered a paella. Different kinds and no complaints. We were so satisfied with our choice. All of the wait staff was friendly and attentive. They all helped each other. We ordered the Caesar salad, seafood paella, cava & red sangria, & ice cream bars. Would absolutely recommend.

    Seafood paella

    Visited Bosque Palermo for lunch while in Barcelona. They're open until 2:30, not the normal 1/1:30, so it gives you some extra time before siesta. They were really busy, and because of this the staff didn't seem very friendly. There was also an issue wIth my bill, but they were happy to fix it after I caught the mistake. Would recommend the paella!

    It's a place that was recommended to me by a person I trust, especially the paella . I'm guessing she didn't get to go to the best. I had the disadvantage of dining alone on most of my visits. They only make it for two. However, on one visit the table next to me couldn't finish theirs and shared. It was good, but not amazing. I had good jamon, prawns in garlic, squid, and many other dishes. Every one were good, but not amazing However, the whole "vibe" of the place, the friendly staff, and the mix of tourists and locals was really nice. I've eaten inside, at the bar, and outside. All have their pluses and minuses. If you are alone, the bar is great. You're also most likely to meet interesting locals there. Outside, on a nice night, is a great time. It's worth going to, but you can see from my reviews other places I'd recommend far more. I've been here more than my check-ins shows.

    Food was great, service definitely could've been better. The prices are good and I won't lie that house wine and red sangria are amazing. The tapas olives are pretty damn good as well

    Seafood paella
    Cece Y.

    This place is NOT awesome as reviews everywhere suggest, so I assume people keep coming because it's one of the few Barcelona restaurants reviewed on Yelp. It also has tons of reviews on TripAdvisor. Everyone dining here was either American or speaking English, so that just backs my theory! We had the seafood and meat paella dishes, which were both pretty mushy. The complimentary bread lightly brushed with a mild tomato sauce/olive oil mixture was okay though, so I ate more of that than our actual entrees.

    This place was great! We came here on our last night in Barcelona looking for some paella. We were not disappointed! It was so flavorful and perfectly cooked! Just make sure you order some tapas because it takes about 30 minutes to cook. We also ordered "a glass" of Sangria and oh my goodness it was huge! So delicious. The service was great, and the staff was friendly. It was a cute place, not oversized, and had a nice terrace outside that we sat at. We did call and get a reservation the same day and I recommend it just in case. Not always necessary but it's helpful especially if you come hungry.

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!!

The feta cheese was absolutely disgusting, it tasted like imitation rubber cheese. - The "Al Ajillo" Style Shrimps (GAMBES AMB ALLADA) had a very strange flavor within it, which overwhelmed the garlic flavors. - The Beef Tenderloin (FILET VEDELLA), she had to spit 1/4 of it out because it was too tough. - Everything was overpriced there for the value.
