It was great, can't remember the name, everything is good here..
Steve C.

The Mushroom Risotto was amazing, we also had the Black Rice and Oxtails over mash potatoes, not a bad dish in the menu. The manager was very friendly and even took a group photo of us outside the restaurant. The service was great and the food was prepared fast. I will definitely comeback here whenever I am in Barcelona before and after another Mediterranean cruise.

Horrible place, I got there at opening time for lunch it was empty, I wanted to sit in a sunny place the hostess refused to let me sit where I want, I kindly told her I wanted to sit in a sunny space and plus it's so empty there is nobody so I don't see the harm, she was so rude and refused, since I'm by self and all the tables where I wanted to sit is only for 3 or more ppl , I was so hungry and didn't want to argue so I just sat my ass where she wanted me, I ordered my food and then I see her letting a lady by herself sit in table of 4, and then another men sit in a table of 4, so the whole time I was eating I had to watch these ppl sit by themselves where I wanted to sit, I don't know if she was being racist or maybe because I don't speak Spanish, I didn't want to make a scene but it made me sad, I ordered one of their starters which was like 9€ and a Pepsi but somehow my bill came out to 25 € I was so tired and jetllegged to argue, so yeah I got discriminated against and scammed at the same time. Food was decent !

Stopped here for dinner on my barcelona trip. Being a gross fat American we came for dinner at 7 so t was pretty empty. I loved it. We started off with fried calamari and baby squid with eggs, which we were fooled into thinking was the national food of barcelona. I am not joking when I say I did not see one person eating this combination the entire trip. Anyway, I got the iberian hamburger and I really enjoyed it. This is saying a lot considering up until that point I had eaten ham everyday for a week straight. It wasn't too salty and was flavorful enough. To be honest it wasn't anything special, but it just really hit the spot more than anything else. You've been warned if you get any other entree you will leave hungry. Pretty small portions.

So sad we had dinner here! Service was not attentive or friendly at all! Do not come here For dinner. Drinks maybe, but not food. We really enjoyed our wine and sangria and for the generous amount and price, you can't complain at all! But the food was just terrible. Steak came out so raw had to send it back. It was so tough and so much fat i couldn't even cut into my steak! Burger has this awful texture to it. French fries were nothing fancy but the only thing that we sadly munched on. Edamame saved the night as I munched on it all dinner. Couldn't say if they were just delicious or if everything else was just so terrible.

Nice Bar and plenty of room for big groups.

Upscale, friendly restaurant within walking distance of the beach! This beautiful setting allows for a great weekend dinner or date night go to. The truffled chicken was devine and the mushroom risotto hit the spot. Plenty of room for big parties though occasionally there will be large groups (four long tables of 15-20) which make the restaurant quite loud and hard to hear. Overall great food and atmosphere.

The Sangria was excellent. As was the Salmon Plancha dinner. The Honey enjoyed the Macaroni Bolognesa that was generous enough as a main although listed as the "Small Plate". An excellent choice!

One of the best desserts I've had in Barcelona
Nosuchthingas P.

Excellent service. Delicious food. Very nice restaurant. So nice you forget it's attached to the mall. I sat inside and it was quiet and peaceful. Food came out promptly. It was a quiet Tuesday evening around 7:30 Definitely worth the few steps from the Hilton to get a meal. This dessert was amazing! I originally gave this restaurant 5 stars. Ate here 3 times while visiting Barcelona. First visit was great as stated above. Second visit was good. Yesterday's visit was sadly a bad experience. The young man, Yuri?, (name on receipt) who served us had a bad ATTITUDE. The restaurant was empty. This was on Thursday, 28th of September. Only one couple seated outside when we arrived. We had a 6am alarm for Friday morning to get up for the airport so we were eating early (around 6pm) to get back and packed. We saw him turn other people away. He tried to turn us away by saying there was no inside seating until 8pm. I wanted my husband to try the amazing dessert otherwise we would have left. My grilled bass was full of bones and limp skin. Complete opposite of my first meal. The sangria looked like he had watered it down or didn't stir it before filling the jug. I'm going to post photos so you can see the difference. The bread that was served with our fish soup was old. I know because I had it on my first visit. This bread was hard as a rock. What a let down. The only thing that didn't disappoint was that dessert!! If you are a cheese & caramel fan it's pretty amazing. Hopefully your server will be having a better day than our experience on our last day in Barcelona.

From New York to Barcelona Spain. Found this restaurant by accident, food was delicious staff was great. I'll definitely be back today.

Salmon with zuchinni
Samm D.

I had high expecations of this place due to previous reviews and food in the photos looked really yummy. I ordered chips and guacamole . Guac was fresh and decent, though i prefer onion in mine but i can't believe they brought out stale and ridicously petty pieces from the bottom of the bag. Only when I asked for more did I get normal chips. I also had a salmon dish with a side of grilled zuchinni. This was pretty good and I recommend this dish. The waitress was also very slow, not only to me but I also noticed to other tables even though the place wasnt very busy. Overall decent place but not special.

Casa Carmen Burger
Andrew L.

This place is awesome. Our hotel was near by and we could not believe how good the food was. The tapas were amazing with a food variety. The Sangria was really good. The cafe cafe desert was something I have never seen or tried anywhere before. The service was really friendly. We liked it so much we went there twice for diner of our 4 night stay. Prices are reasonable for such quality and creativity in food.

This is the grilled chicken on fine herbs and eggplant!

Food was great. Service was better. But that sangria hit hard as a mug. Cost was very reasonable for all the food we had.

Even if without time to sit down and eat, do buy some cheese to go! We did that and then returned for a proper dinner. The atmosphere was so cozy and makes me feel like it's Christmas there everyday! The service is so kind and accommodating. We shared three incredible salads (one with bufalo mozzarella, one with mushrooms, and the third with orange and chili, as well as shared a large cheese plate of cheeses from Northern Spain. Wow! Everything was absolutely divine! All of the salads were incredible (and it was my first and last bite of jamon iberico while in Barcelona as I'm vegetarian and made an exception of a bite here in order to experience the culinary history of Barcelona... and I am so glad I did this here as my cousin who lives near the restaurant confirmed it is among the best Iberico he had ever eaten). The Rose was incredible and they offer an extensive wine list. The cheeses were unforgettable dekicious. It was such a delicious, beautiful and memorable dinner with such lovely company and our last dinner together in Barcelona this trip. Thank you so much! We hope one day soon to return to Barcelona from NYC!

As primarily English speaking it has been a disappointing culinary adventure throughout Spain, but…read morenot here. Not only did our server amuse our broken Spanish but he also spoke English. The food was absolutely amazing. I had a Tebia salad. I honestly can't say I've been so excited over a salad. It had a wonderful aray of light toppings with a hot host cheese on toast. It was delightful and rich with the semisweet salad. My spouse had the fondue and a toast with iberco ham. The tiramisu was not to sweet yet creamy and delicate. Great service, great meal, great start to our trip to Barcelona. Best meal yet in Spain

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!

For an early dinner by Spanish time, we started with the croquettes. Crip and wonderful. Then the tenderloin which was taste as well, though we should have a sales what is on the top. It seemed like mostly a flavored fat. The tomato with toast was lovely. Soaked with natural tomato juice. The skewered prawns were the best. Get them. And we ended with coconut pudding. It was like a flan with a coconut base. All together fun and delicious!
