    After Mark Wiens featured this gem in his Barcelona trip back in 2016, I have bookmarked it since then. 2019 I made it to Barcelona and this was my one of my two favorite spots in Barcelona, perhaps one of the best seafood spots on my bucket list. First of all the atmosphere is incredible and authentic, Although you see some tourists here, mostly locals. Second the quality of food is insanely fresh and simple. nothing beats fresh simple seafood grilled with outstanding olive oil, lemon and good wine. I dined here twice during my four days stay in Barcelona. My favorite thing here was the grilled sardines, since It was the season, I was lucky to have fresh sardines here and I fell in love with them. the fried anchovy were incredible as well alone with the fried merkel. Another hit is the garlic shrimp, so simple so fresh so delicite. In addition, the fried peppers and eggplants are somewhat oily but good sides overall. When In Barcelona, STOP BY and check this gem out.

    Enjoyed the food here so much that we ended up visiting on 2 consecutive nights. Lots of delicious seafood at very reasonable prices. It tastes fresh, and has great flavor. Everything that we tried was really good. It has more of a local vibe, even though the customers did seem to be primarily tourists. We got there just before opening each time and there was already a line at the door. So my recommendation is to come just before 8 to avoid waiting. Will definitely return if I'm in town.

    Went to this place after watching on Mark Weins YouTube channel and it's worth the trek! Great seafood in a rustic, traditional environment. Price is reasonable but I wouldn't call it cheap. Sangria is great also! Close to the best prawns and squid I've ever had. If you're precious, and expect a clean bathroom or good service than look elsewhere.

    Very fresh seafood. We went around 8pm and the place was packed. While the two of us got the table right away, there were about ten people waiting outside around 9 pm when we finished eating. We had the fried white fish (couldn't catch the name) and grilled squid. The waiter wasn't very helpful in making recommendations ("everything is good" is the standard response to me and our neighboring tables). The dishes are raciones (full portion) and 1/2 portions (for 75% of price). Food is more fresh and cheaper than tapas bars you see lined up around more touristy spots. Oh beware. "The fruitas" dessert for one euro we ordered consisted of a single uncut apple lying on a plate. Strangely we were so satisfied with the rest of the food we just laughed it off.

    Gamberi(prawns)! So good, you can eat the whole thing, even the shell if you want.

    Ok so a local brought us here and for good reason, it's a locals secret to the most fresh, amazing seafood we've ever had. They don't speak a lick of English but have an English menu. They serve the house wine by setting a bottle on your table and you get charged for what you drink (if you don't finish the bottle like we did both times). The whole bottle is €4,50. The red is really good, the white is decent. Get the gamberi(prawns), best shrimp of our lives. Don't ruin the local secret but don't miss it either!

    Mussels were delicious!

    A locals seafood restaurant with a few tourist who know how good this place is! It's a straight seafood - you order a plate of fresh grilled or fried fish, some mussels, prawns, squid, etc and everything you get is gold. They only take cash and they have an English menu but the staff don't seem to understand much English. Authentic and locals kinda restaurant!

    It's been a decade since I came here for my first Tapas in BCN. This is where I realized there was…read morea lot of my peeps that works there and it's nice to feel at home, lol. This was recommended by friends awhile back, I remembered the modern ambiance, amazing Tapas, friendly service and the place was as busy then until now. For this big restaurant caliber, it's pretty crowded yet they do a good job with a fast turnaround. We did the early Dinner and by the time we got out there was already a long line for late Diners. The fact that even after a decade, it's rare that I go back to the same spot let alone they're still around after all these years. You already know that tells a lot and I feel bad for those who didn't have the same great experience, hope they give it another shot. See y'all soon! Salut, Vermouth!

    Walking down the street on Rambla and a "Huge Line" has gathered outside Cerveseria Catalana…read more Something special must be happening here to have this big of a crowd waiting. My son had been here last year and thought, it was a solid. We put our name in, went to a nearby park bench to wait and watch people for 50 minutes. The servers outside are grumpy as to many people are crowding the sidewalk and impeding his service. Finally, our name was called, were seated at the bar, and watched a chef make the magic dishes. The menu is huge and I can't help but watch the delicious dishes flying by us. So little time and yet so many great choices, this won't be easy. We began with the beef tenderloin montadito foie gras. It was presented as a open face sandwich on a bagette. We split it as it had a huge piece of foie gras. The tenderloin was tough and the tapas tasted like indivdual components, not a blended or refined profile. The grilled razor clams were nicely cooked, slightly gritty and needed to be washed more thoroughly. The Spanish omelet wedge was spiritual, dish of the night award. The onion made the dish! The sliced fried artichoke was finely shaved, and again lacked a enjoyable flavor that I would order again. The chips with fried eggs and Jabugo ham was different, tasty and a concept I would not of thought about. Delicious! Casveseria Catalanahe was packed and stacked for a reason. A high vibe and energy even in the face of a revolt at the check in desk from hungry dinners. I came say without hesitation, we will give them a second try. The staff was friendly, engaging, warm and a good sense of humor, nothing but smiles. I can't wait for our next trip to Cerveseria Catalana and let them tell me what to order. Good luck and see you sooner than later.

    This restaurant was literally right next to our stay in Barcelona--skipping it felt like a crime,…read moregiven the rave reviews. So, on a rainy afternoon, we gave it a shot. We arrived just after lunch opening and were the first customers. The guy at the counter was... efficient. He simply told us to pick what we wanted, tossed it in a bin, and that was that. No explanation of pricing or preparation methods. When we asked how they'd cook it, he casually offered "fried or grilled." Obviously, we chose grilled--why fry fresh seafood? We picked two giant prawns, two octopus tentacles, and two fish (since hubby can't have shellfish). He asked if we wanted salad or soup--reviews hyped the soup, so we went with that. Then he handed us a receipt, told us we were order #3, and sent us to the bar. At the bar, we ordered two sangrias and a water. The bartender asked if we wanted bread and sauce. Sure, why not? We assumed they were included. Surprise! The tiny baguettes cost €0.50 each, and the mystery "house sauce" (a questionable mix of thousand island and horseradish) was an extra €1. We only realized the charge when we saw the total: €73. Oh well, too late now. Then came the food pickup experience--chaotic, to say the least. The server practically barked at us to bring our receipt, aggressively crossed off items, and handed over soups and octopus, crammed onto a greasy tray. No effort at plating, just food haphazardly dumped onto plates. The second round--grilled fish and prawns--was more of the same. Now, the verdict: Soup (5/5) - Delicious and reasonably priced at €6. Would order again. Bread & Sauce (0/5) - Not free, not worth it. Hard pass. Octopus (€31.80 for two tentacles, 1/5) - Overpriced, greasy, and drowning in molten salt. Basically, eating a sodium bomb. Grilled Fish (€10.50 & €8.50, 3/5) - Decent, but unnecessarily oily. Grilled Prawns (€5.59, 0/5) - Mushy, not fresh, and borderline inedible. Final thoughts? Not worth it. With so many incredible food spots in Barcelona, why waste your meal quota here? If you want quality seafood, go to Cervecería Catalana--we spent €5 more, but a meal a thousand times better. Spend wisely and eat like a king.

    [Food] - Oysters: Fresh and good with lemon…read more - Anchovies: Not our favorite as it was very fishy and oily tasting despite adding lemon. I've had fried anchovies before but this was too heavy for us - Octopus: This was a bit oily but but not as much as the anchovies. Potatoes were nice and soft and absorbed all the sauces. - Small Clams: My favorite dish out of all we've ordered. Although the clams were small, the sauce it was cooked in was delicious! [Service] - Line up, order what you want, some seafood have various cook styles so they will ask you which you'd prefer, pay, find a table, and pick up at the pick up window once your buzzer goes off. [Ambiance] - Mainly indoor seating with 2 tables outdoors [Overall] - Would come back again as I love this kind of seafood eateries! Will definitely try other dishes next time as well

You get your orders as the food is done.. So I made about 4 trips to the window. First time coming to a restaurant where you pick your seafood and they cook them for you.. Over all the food was very fresh. Mussels are cooked with white wine, octopus steamed so i was told. Prawns and langoustine grilled I think. Over all food was pretty good. Price is pretty reasonable. I wouldn't say best seafood I've ever had but it was good and lots of food for price you pay.. Mussel were pretty good but not as good as ones I've had in Naples. You better know what you want.. They don't like you taking time and trying to decide what to get. I would come back here again.

Two of us picked 5 types of seafood, a salad and a fish soup. We tried the sangria as our drinks. Everything is beyond fantastic! We would highly recommend this seafood gem to all our friends. Here are a few tips for the first timers: 1) The workers at the order area don't understand English well. We pointed at the seafood for ordering. 2) Recommended to have the fish soup over mixed salad as an appetizer. The fish soup is made with lots of fish and ginger; and it carries so much flavor. 3) The mussels are a must-have and are so cheap (Under 10 Euros for huge portions). It's recommended to prepare in two ways: white wine and tomato sauce 4) The La Paradeta sauce (I e. A green basil sauce) goes very well with shrimps and razor clams. 5) The fried calamari was so delicious and perfectly paired with drizzles of lemon juice. Yet, it's so expensive (24 Euros for a very small portion). It doesn't feel as worth it as compared to something like lobsters (29 Euros/single lobster). 6) I noticed many people ordered a bottle of wine instead of Sangria. Will need to try next time!

Our server, Amaya, was funny, knowledgeable, and incredibly attentive. He took great care of us, and every single recommendation he made was delicious. I wish I knew all the Spanish names of the dishes because everything was amazing. The highlights for us were the Bacalao -- so tender and full of flavor -- and honestly the best octopus I've ever had in my life. We also loved the soft steak with duck liver served on a slice of French baguette, the shrimp skewers, patatas, and the Spanish ham with tomato toasts. Every dish was unforgettable. On top of the incredible food, the restaurant itself has such an elegant atmosphere with beautiful décor that made the whole dining experience even more special. Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Barcelona!

I came here for lunch, and thankfully I didn't have to wait too long before I got seated inside. The interior is a bit on the smaller side, but it's quite bright with a lot of natural sunlight inside. For the food, I decided to get squid, codfish with honey allioli, and iberian ham montaditos. While all of the food was great, for me the codfish was hands-down the star of the show and probably one of the best dishes that I ate on the trip. The flavor of the sauce combined with the texture of the fish actually blew me away, and I can see why my server highly recommended this to me. If you just get one things when coming here, definitely make sure not to miss this dish. Highly recommend checking this place out for Spanish tapas, they represent the cuisine well!
