Small restaurant that gets packed easily. Their tapas are better than most and they have a rice dish that is unique to their restaurant that is just fantastic. It's a small spot that doesn't take reservations though so just plan ahead. read more

Ate at the counter and had an amazing dinner. This definitely is a place locals go and in fact was recommended by thr bellman at our hotel - and we are so glad he did. The black rice was the star but we devoured everything that came our way. The monk fish and prawn croqueta tasted like a fried ball of clay chowder - delicious. read more

Oh my god, this was such a random find and the best dinner of our trip to Barcelona. It is a very low key place, tucked away out of sight not too far from the madness of Las Ramblas. Quick and friendly service. The food was so good. Their meats are amazing, the hamon is not excessively salty, everything seems very authentic. Will come again next time we're in Spain, for sure. read more

Great touristy place , love the tapas and wine . Priced to foreigners but easy walk to my hotel so dont need to be roaming around the Barcelona streets that are terribly sketchy with thieves and pickpocketers . Usually gets busy because its very popular Little on the pricy side because they cater to tourists but great quality read more

Outstanding meal with excellent service. The restaurant is very cute, almost kitschy. Yelp steered me correctly...the pan con tomato was delicious as was the fried artichokes. Potatoes Bravas were by far the best I have ever had. The star was the dessert, do not miss the Fig tartine, truly spectacular and the vanilla ice cream was actually vanilla.... If you are in the area, Casa Alfonso is a can't miss. read more

It's our second time in Barcelona and we had to pass by here again! First of all, the atmosphere here is amazing. It has really nice vintage Spanish vibes. On the right hand side there is an amazing charcuterie area where they slice and prepare the iberico. This time around we sat at the bar which is comfy! Service is quick as expected in Spain! Most tapas are already prepared and don't take long to come out. They have a great selection of wine as well! Definitely a place to check out when you're in Barcelona! read more

I really liked the old world atmosphere in here. The first room had the bar with various tapas under a glass cover on the bar. We ate in the second room which had a warm, woody demeanor. All of the tapas courses we picked we loved. The Russian Salad was our favorite. The waiters spoke enough English to get us through dinner without too much stumbling . read more

It reminder our family of the food we had in Rome. Very authentic food, great staff, will go back again!

The food was good and the wait staff was excellent and work hard. Unfortunately, the evening was ruined by the woman who sat us. Before we ordered dessert she informed us we had 20 minutes to be done because she had other people to seat. read more

We walked in for 3. There's vintage decor. Servers were friendly. My friends loved the Casa Alfonso rice with eggs, blood sausage, and Iberian ham. Everything was good. The gazpacho and cava sangria were good to cool off from the summer heat. read more

Service was slow at best. We sat for a good 15-20 minutes after being seated before we were greeted. Food was delicious when we finally ordered. The seafood paella was delicious but slightly burned past the top portion of the pan. The meatballs were delicious and we had lovely white wine to pair with as we dined in for lunch. Super cute outdoor seating for a breezy early summer day in Barcelona. We stumbled upon and didn't need a reservation for mid day. read more

When the staff of the hotel tells you to try the best local spot ... that's what you do!!! We were In Spain for a week and the was the best meal we had the entire time. Stepping into Casa Alfonso is like walking into the past. You can literally smell the history in this place. When you first step in there are meats hanging and curing from the ceiling. Cheeses and delicacy's in the fresh case. A beautiful and eclectic bar to the right and a time capsule dining room in the back in which we were fortunate enough to sit in. We tried a bunch of different apps and everything was so fresh and so amazing. This is the one place I will go back to next time I'm in Barcelona!!! read more

Historic restaurant, great atmosphere, and fantastic service. Enjoyed the tapas and a nice bottle of wine. Would go back there anytime.

We were lucky to stay close to Casa Alonso so we went there several times. The staff was always attentive an accommodating. All of their suggestions were delicious. We always ordered the jamon, artichoke and the eggplant. The rest varied but was always good. House vermut and wine all good. They do not take reservations but we never had a long wait, if there was a wait. They were tolerant of my attempts to speak spanish but I think everyone spoke at least a little english. read more

Waited only 15 minutes in the queue to get seated on a Monday evening. Great service with tips about what was in season or a chef special. All of the food was served promptly and hit the spot after our long day of travel. Delicious tapas served alongside a historic family restaurant - what a great introduction to our stay in Barcelona! read more

Sat in the back room our server was impatient ( Patricia ) with us because my wife had difficulty speaking Spanish and it was very noisy there. She took the order and we never saw her again. The salads and entree were brought out to us before our beverages and we had to ask another waiter for our drinks. They don't take reservations. ' Not worth it read more

There is an ample list of croquetas--varied, imaginative and well made. The pan con tomate came on blessedly thinly-sliced bread that was somewhere between focaccia and pizza dough, drizzled with olive oil and a tomato puree. Good! I also had a tortilla abierta with cod and asparagus that was perfect. The Xioxo was out of this world. The bar waitress seemed a bit impatient with me at first, but she warmed to me with time. The restaurant predated the Civil war and has paintings on the wall that look to date to that period. Very charming inside. read more

If I had to use 2 words, professional and delicious. The waiters and staff took great pride in their establishment. My guess would be that their staff stay on for many years. I asked for a coupa de vino blanca . No idea if that's right. I was my best try. He asked if I wanted either X or Y.... Since I had no idea, I asked him to pick. He brought a lovely white with a bright floral finish. A mom daughter local pair sat next to me and said hola. They had croquettas. I suspect they were delicious. I had experienced such bad croquettas, I ordered the Casa Alfonsa rice. It had jamon, sausage, mushrooms and an egg. It hit every mark. Well kept, great service, beautiful food. read more

Thankfully we got a recommendation for Cafe Alfonso, otherwise I don't think we would have known to come here. We ordered the spinach & Brie croquettes, patatas bravas, tuna tartar, tomato bread, white wine and water. They gave a large assortment of croquettes on the menu. Nice ambiance and service. Got a "caja para llegar" for our leftover jamon to make a sandwich tomorrow. The jamon was billed as the best in Spain and it certainly delivered! read more

Good food and fun place to visit. Lots of options and helpful staff. Good ambiance.

Tapas were so good! 5 stars. Not too big or small . Everything is made really well and has great flavor.

We came here as part of a Tapas Tour we found on Trip Advisor, so service or other components may or may not be the same if you were not with a tour. Our host ordered, and ordered she did. Normally this is what was ordered for 5, but only 3 of us, and we went to town: Fried olives w sardines Tomato bread black big Jamon Pork sausage Eggplant w goat cheese and honey Chiro peppers Sangria I loved this place The atmosphere was great, as was the food. Would definitely love to go back. read more

They have good service and delicious food. A good variety from traditional Spanish food including sea food and dried hams / meats.

This was our second favourite tapas bar of the three we went to. And of all the famously old restaurants I've visited, this one is one where I enjoyed the most beyond just the fame it got for being old. The food is really good, and lots of locals eating in there. We asked for a recommendation and we enjoyed everything we recieved. Overall, tapas are not expensive per se, but they do add up pretty quickly. In general, expect to spend €15- 20/person if you are eating tapas as a meal. Funny story: my party tried so long to decipher the menu items using Google translate and everything... After we painstakingly ordered a few items, the waiter gave us an English menu. (They probably just forgot when they first gave us the menu) read more

The food was good. And the inside of restaurant was cozy. The owner seemed very nice, but we get the feeling that tourists weren't wanted by waitresses. They didn't give us the right order twice. Bummer... read more

Atmosphere is fine, very authentic Spanish place. Service is great for a tapas place, waiter tried to make a custom meal for my younger brother. Food is good, have a little bit of everything for all types of eaters. Mocktails are nothing special. Must have mozzarella cheese sticks. read more

Great tapas restaurant in Barcelona. My wife and I came here with a group while on vacation in Europe. When I was told it was family owned and has been in business since 1934, I knew I would love it. The main area when you walk in has a bar and small seating area in a narrow path , but there is cozy seating in the back area where we were. We were served a variety of tapas including Spanish sausages, tomato bread with olive oil, artichokes, fish fritters, fried olives, spicy potatoes, and some kind of breaded ball stuffed with ground beef( super good). It was hard to pick a favorite as they were all fantastic. I loved being instructed to rub the tomatoes on the bread and then sprinkle olive oil on it. It was awesome and I don't know why I haven't thought of this before. I am now going to do this at home for dinner appetizers. The wine and sangria were served in pitchers, and was all smooth and good for starting off the night. The service was prompt and friendly. If I come back to Barcelona, I'd love to come back here. I highly recommend. read more

Went back a few times while in Spain and absolutely loved everything about it!! Food was amazing and so delicious! So many options.

This is an all-Tapas Taverna: they serve tapas at the bar and at the tables-- and the Tapas are very good. Some favorites: Prawns with Garlic, Spinach and Chard Salad, Gazpacho. Try the Vermouth with your Tapas, too! Service is fast, friendly and attentive. Crowd is mostly locals, so you know the food is good. read more

Very good food. Enjoyed the Barrata salad, crispy artichokes, Iberian ham, and salmon. Nice atmosphere. Gave 4 stars and not 5 because I think waitress tried to take advantage of us not speaking Spanish. But otherwise service was good. read more

On the first day that we arrived at El Palace Hotel (a dream) just down the street from this restaurant, a concierge mentioned that this restaurant was a good place to go for a good meal. He stressed that it was not for fine dining, but that we wouldn't be disappointed with the food. Unfortunately, we didn't make it here until our 7th and last day in Barcelona. And I realized immediately by looking at the plates around me that he had been so right. It is certainly a popular lunch spot and for good reason. One of the unusual things about Barcelona is when you say vino bianco? I always asked it as a question, they do not bring you a list of wines, they bring you a glass of house white wine. They have it everywhere and sometimes it is, of course, better than other times. Here, it was very good. Another thing we loved about this restaurant is that they had a roasted salmon tapas for lunch. It was 2 small (4" x 5") pieces of salmon that were perfectly cooked. It came with a dipping sauce which enhanced it. (I like my salmon cooked medium.) The other members of my party had their excellent croqettes, the wonderful burrata salad with avocado. Everyone was quite happy. read more

We had a semi-large group (11) and were told to wait outside 15-20 minutes. It was about a 45 minute wait. It was our first night in town and it was the first recommendation from our host. Food seemed ok, but the following night we walked a few blocks and found a place that seated us all right away and had significantly better food! Bigger portions and better prices! Lesson learned. Do some research, so many options around. I wouldn't wait 5 minutes again for this place. Much better food everywhere else. read more

Casa Alfonso - Seafood paella --just ok. - Tapas Bars Near Me - Barcelona, B

Many Barcelona residents consider this the finest tapas house in Barcelona. When I have been entertained, and the hosts want to impress, this is where we go. The cold meats here are absolutely of distinction. The cheeses here are absolutely of distinction. The other items are quite nice but don't stand out the way the meat and the cheese do. I haven't eaten everything on the menu so there may be some more distinction items yet to be discovered. If you had one and only one meal to have in Barcelona and you wanted Tapas, this would be a fine choice since everything is entirely respectable and the best stuff is wonderful. But if you are NOT on that system, consider the following logic. If you are in Spain, do you want Iberian ham and charcuterie? Yeah yeah yeah, you may be planning paella, seafood etc etc ... But great Spanish hams are a huge part of what makes Barcelona Barcelona. If you are on the no-ham plan, then skipping Casa Afonso might be okay. If not ... read more

Had tomato bread, olives, grilled octopus and patatas bravas. Food was decent. Recommended by hotel staff where locals go. More knows for its meats which were hanging inside the restaurant but we didn't try that as not in the mood. Decent for dinner read more
