    Pancit Miki Bihon
    Jenn G.

    It was such a pleasant surprise to find Filipino food in Barcelona. Fil Manila was a bit hard to find after coming from La Rambla street but I'm definitely glad we found it! We came here on a Friday night and there was a fair amount of people dining in. Despite having a few tables to wait on; the waitress here was quick to take our orders. We happened to come on a Lenten Friday and so our options for non meat was a bit limited. We got Ginataang Dorada and Tuna (Fish in Coconut Cream), Pancit Miki Bihon (Noodles) and Paella Mixed Seafood. Though our orders were placed quickly. It took quite sometime to get our orders. It took a good hour and we were quite hungry by the time our meals finally came. The Pancit Miki Bihon was beautifully plated but I was definitely surprised with the small portion size. The small portion size was a bit of a bummer as thought the Pancit itself was pretty good in flavor. It has a good mix of veggies with cauliflower and brocolli. The Ginataang Dorada was also an ok dish in terms of flavor. It has lots of beans and some butternut squash. There was definitely more green beans in there than squash. This dish was enjoyable with white rice. We also tried some of their puto; Filipino steamed rice cake. The waitress told us these were freshly made. These were very soft tasty. It was really nice to find Filipino food in Barcelona. The meal was enjoyable though there were some things I wish were a little bit better in terms of this visit. The wait time for food was too long and also thought portion size was a bit small. Despite this; I am still very happy to have enjoyed Filipino food in Barcelona. I've always thought Filipino food should be known worldwide and definitely loved seeing a Filipino spot in the heart of the city.

    Food was very good, if you are on a trip in Barcelona & been missing pinoy food soo much for days/weeks ths could be your go place as a group or even solo traveler, easy to find because its very close to the La Rambla & its a busy area, seems safe to walk around those little streets even at night but off course still take extra careful. Service was fast, the staff are all friendly & very helpful. The overall resto was pretty much well set, clean & even the restroom was neat. We will definitely come back once we visit again.

    I came here for Pinoy food specifically lomi so we ordered pork belly with egg and fried rice, halo halo and lomi, everything else was good typical pinoy food but my concerned is the lomi that i ordered was like regular pancit with a little bit of broth not even close to what really lomi taste like and the broth supposed to be thickened with beaten eggs not like this one and it has a celery, zucchini and bell pepper, What the?! I cooked lomi my self but if you want to fool the customer for fake ass lomi and charge them with your fake ass lomi price that is some bulllshit! Your cook need to watch some YouTube videos how to cook it right or something don't represent pinoy food if you don't know how to make them. I wouldn't recommend this place to a friend If you craving for lomi it's best to go to RESTAURANT FILIPI MYRAMAR it's like 4 blocks away from this place, way better food for me...here's some picture to help you out.smh...

    While on vacation, my parents got a little tired of eating European food and wanted something closer to home. We were quite pleased to find many local filipinos suggest this restaurant and luckily was walking distance from our hotel in Las Ramblas. The service was so homey and welcoming and honestly, comforting being in a foreign country. The food was extremely delicious and tasted like lola's home cooking. Love their nautical decorations and renovations. Would definitely recommend to anyone!

    Was strolling around Barrio Gothic when we stumbled upon this restaurant. Wide range of home-cooked Filipino meals. Husband had lechon kawali with egg and garlic rice. I had sizzling beef steak with white rice . Service by Randz was friendly and fast. I highly recommend if you're sick of tapas and bread. Substantial and filling .

    Good service and authentic Filipino food and it will definitely hit the spot with extra rice.

    The group I was with had a craving for Filipino food after being in Barcelona for a week. Our tour guide took us here and this place did not disappoint! Friendly service, portions were huge, decently priced, and food was like home. We got the seafood platter, garlic fried rice, longanesa, and bisteak & rice. Very flavorful and left with a happy stomach. For those in the area that would like to try Filipino food, I would highly recommend!

    After several days of eating tapas, we missed our native food, after searching yelp, I found this restaurant near La Rambla, it was tucked inside one of the alley ways. The food was pretty good but my only complaint was the service. It took a while for our server to get to us. And after our main course it took a while for our server to check on us and also forgot that we had ordered a halo-halo we had to remind him!!

    Food was great along with the atmosphere. Lechon Kawali, lumpia, and paella. Must try!

    Beef steak, egg fried rice and kilawin (I think)

Very flavorful and fast experience. Oxtail and mashed potatoes 10/10: the oxtail meet is so tender and flavorful. The mashed potatoes pair so well with the oxtail. 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. If you are in the area DO NOT waste your time nor money dining here!!!

Thank goodness we had a reservation, otherwise the wait time for walk-ins was quoted to be 2-3 hours. We were seated at the counter, smack-dab in the middle of all the action. The drinks were just okay, but the tapas were great! We tried the anchovy dish, jamon, tomato toast, paella, padron peppers, spanish omelette, mussels, and finished with the crema catalana for dessert. All of the dishes were outstanding and they did not disappoint. Service was phenomenal and they were all very friendly and engaging with diners. They guided us on how many plates to order and stopped us from ordering too much, which I appreciate since we weren't sure how big each portion was. Would definitely come back if I had the chance!

Be careful ladies! The street outside this resturant is not safe in my estimation. I mean my beautiful daughter did get chased by "a newer uninvited resident." Inside? The best resturant in the city. Maybe in all of Spain. I could make a case for it to be THE BEST RESTURANT ON EARTH. (Except that title goes to Commanders Palace in New Orleans or Caviar Kaspia in Paris.But maybe not.) Great service. Great food. Great feeling place. Drawbacks? The neighborhood. The entrance to get in is AWFUL. The place is always too crowded and it can get very loud.

AMAZING. cooked to a medium and was deliciously tender. others reported the angus tenderloin was good, but needed some kind of sauce with it. desserts (pick one): variety of chocolates cannoli filled with goat cheese cheesecake and berries ice cream - passionfruit and raspberry with a white crunch for 65 euro per person for the prix-fixe, this was a great meal to share with friends! drinks - very reasonably priced bottles of wine (around 28 euro per bottle), so we kept well hydrated throughout the experience. others in the group got cocktails and said they were really good as well. i've never spent 3.5 hrs in any restaurant, anywhere, but i would go back here in a heartbeat. i fully recommend checking this place out if you're in Barcelona!
