Do me a favor and take some time out of your trip to eat at this lovely restaurant. There was nothing that was disappointing about this place. All our dishes we ordered were spectacular. The service was amazing. Great ambience. I am so sad we tried them out on our last day of our trip. If not, I would've gone out to eat here a lot more. read more

These days my 5 star food picks are ones that I continue to think about long after I'm done with my meal. This is one of those places. Came because I saw the excellent ratings and wanted a burger. Ordered the Chivito thinking it was a burger. Turns out it's a steak sandwich with some cold cuts, veggies, and an amazing toasted buttery brioche bun. Initially I didn't fully process it as I was expecting the taste of a burger. I then just enjoyed it for what it was, a very unusual steak sandwich. Once I readjusted my expectations, I loved it. A fantastic fresh homemade taste, and the staff is cool. Menus are available in English and are just a clipboard with a few spartan pages of food. I finished my Chivito, and while I enjoyed it, I didn't think to hard about it. Now a few hours later I'm wishing I had another. And that is my definition of a 5 star. The potatoes are lightly salted and just the right amount browned. Get those on the side. Keep in kind they only have a few seats. read more

Foc i Oli - Chivito €10.80 Potatoes €2 - Sandwiches Near Me - Barcelona, B

We were missing food from home(Texas). So we tried this place. It was the best hamburger my husband has ever had! We also tried the burrata fresh and delicious accompanied with bread. It was a meal in itself! Flavorful chicken sandwich with homemade pesto sauce, and parmigiana. So yummy! It came with fried potatoes that were cooked in olive .lCrispy and delicious. Even though we were full we tried the lava cake. All homemade and to die for! George our waiter was attentive and helpful. I would highly recommend this restaurant. We ate outside and enjoyed the beautiful weather. read more

Foc i Oli is a super tiny place. There are ten seats. Ten. You will sit at a counter. There is no privacy. That's normally the kind of place I'd hate, but Foc i Oli makes some incredible burgers. I had the Chivito (thin slices of beef steak, ham, bacon, mayo, salad dressing, gouda, red pepper and caramelized onion on brioche bread.) For 9.80 €, it was a taste sensation. I loved it. Although not technically a burger, it basically tasted like one. We arrived near closing time, but the guys here were super-accommodating. Most locals seemed to grab their burgers to go. They do serve beer (I believe they have just one tap) and have some spirits on the wall, so I guess they can whip up a few mixed drinks. Whether you get a burger to go or squeeze your way into a seat, Foc i Oli is an awesome addition to your Barcelona checklist. read more

This tiny little sandwich shop doesn't look like much but it's worth a trip. I know burgers are their thing but I'd just had a burger the day before so I decided to switch things up and get a chicken sandwich. While I regret not getting a burger after reading all the other reviews, I don't think I missed out on much. My sandwich was so yummy - the sauce had great flavor and the bread was perfectly toasty and crunchy. Those potatoes are heaven too. Very reasonably priced. Servers were friendly. Would be a regular if I didn't live 5,000 miles away :-) read more

Foc i Oli - Chicken sandwich with potatoes. Get the potatoes. Trust me. - Sandwiches Near Me - Barcelona, B

One of the best burger/sandwich places we've ever been to. Our Airbnb host recommended Foc i Oli and we got to stop in for a quick bite during lunch. The bartender/server was extremely personable and helpful with menu selections. I couldn't decide between the Chihuahua or the Especial so I asked for his input and he actually suggested their house favorite, the Chivito. Let me just say, by far, the best steak sandwich I've had. The burgers and sandwiches are a bit smaller compared to the US, but not surprising. All in all, great service and fantastic food. read more

Best European burgers I ever had. I got the Special which came with fried egg on top. Outstanding. My friend had the burger with blue cheese and loved it. Goal is to get there one more time before we leave wonderful Barcelona. Only seats 10 people! Owners very friendly. read more

A hidden gem in Barcelona. Don't be fooled by the images and think "Why would I come all the way to Barcelona just to have a burger?" The flavors from these sandwiches are far from your typical fast-food sandwich and easily slide into a gourmet tier of their own. This is particularly true for the house special, the Chivito. The three kinds of meat thinly sliced and combined with a unique combination of flavorful and fresh ingredients will have your eyes wide open in disbelief of how delicious it is. Their "patatas" which are a bit similar to homestyle fries are a perfect complement to the sandwich; a golden crisp on the outside and soft on the inside as well as not overly salted. They also have a nice variety of beers and some hard liquor if it suits fancy. All the sandwiches are also just the right size, satisfying yet won't make you feel heavy and weighed down so you'll be good to walk about after your meal. I need to offer some advice for when you DEFINITELY pay this place a visit. The restaurant is small, as in quite literally there are only 10 seats in the whole place, bar style so there are no reservations. There are 5 seats along the wall, 2 seats facing the street and 3 seats at the bar (you can see it posted on pictures). Because of this, it's recommended that you come outside of the hours you might find people looking to eat. I stopped by with two others around 3:30 P.m. in which we were glad to find that it wasn't too busy and we all sat at the bar. We had a chat with the owner who was extremely friendly (and a big soccer fan from Uruguay) and he stated that the busy times can sometimes vary depending on the season and that because it was mid-day in July, a lot of people were out enjoying the beach so it's easier to find seating. The busiest time, as you might guess, are lunch time around 12:00 P.m. and dinner time around 8:00 P.m. or so. They do not follow the trend common among Spain restaurants and cafes that close between 4PM and 8PM for migdiada/siesta. Give it a try! TL;DR for travelers - Sandwiches range from €10-€12 with fries being an extra €2.50 or so - Open during the migdiada/siesta hours of 4P.m. to 8P.m. where many places might be closed - Only 10 seats in the whole restaurant, bar style so you may be rubbing elbows with other folks (socializing chance!) - Absolutely try the Chivito! read more

I'm writing this review mainly because there are no current reviews. Foc i Oli was a late choice based on food they served, ratings, distance from our hotel and price. We only had a short time for dinner. Glad to say we were pleasantly surprised. Dishes ordered: El Chivito (thin slices of steak, ham, bacon, mayonnaise, salad dressing (actually pile and vinegar and salt and paper), Gouda cheese, red pepper, fresh tomatoes, caramelized onions, on brioche bun), La Hambuguesa, El Chihuahua, El Polastre. Each with potatoes. Everything was beyond our expectations. Atmosphere nice, tiny place, seating only at counters on stools. Service was excellent and enjoyable. Food was truly amazing. I would definitely recommend this tiny restaurant. Come and enjoy. read more

Amazing food and service, would go back regularly! Try the potatas bravas, and the burgers!

This was a pretty good burger spot. The service was great and the burgers were delicious. They are very fresh and the buns are toasted just right. The patatas or fries were also tasty. Definitely recommend. There's only seats for about 10 people so be prepared to be seated in a tight space if it's full. read more

Small little burger joint, but don't let that fool you. Their food was absolutely delicious! I ordered the El Chivito, which is a steak sandwich, and their fried potatoes. When our food was ready, the chef himself brought the burgers out to us. Everything was seasoned perfectly and tasted so good. Eating a burger with fries on a hot, summer day just seemed right for someone like me, who's from the States. Along with the top notch food, the staff here is super friendly and welcoming. Even though we were tourists, we sure didn't feel like it. If I ever come back to Barcelona, I'm definitely coming back for another meal! read more

Foc i Oli - El Chavito with fried potatoes - Sandwiches Near Me - Barcelona, B

Little hole in the wall. We had a party of 7 and after a few beers decided to saunter down to this place after reading the reviews. They are closed from 5-7 and only have 10 stools so got here at 6:45. Had a cerveza next door and then the door opened up. OMG. The smell when the flat top fired up was unreal. These guys are artists! The Chivito was as advertised. Unbelievable! Pour group also had the pesto chicken and the burger with bleu cheese (rave reviews). Papas and beer and great service. Trust me. Go!! Updated - went back a 2nd time in October 2019. Friends LOVED their burgers. I went with the Chivito again. Nice beer selection including a few craft IPAs. Owner said they are keeping this location but opening another one that's much bigger. That's what happens when you so things right. He earned it - congrats! read more

This little place is amazing and has lots of character. Met the owner/chef who is so friendly and patient. Menus are in Catalan so he sat and translated all to English for us. Most of what we saw were burgers and sandwiches. I tried the beef burger and my husband had the foie gras one. Both served with a side of patates - simply delicious! He took care to make an onion 'confit' with wine reduction, meat was cooked exactly as we ordered it (medium). Really enjoyed our meal - even more so with a small Estrella on the side. Though burgers aren't the first thing that comes to mind when you think Spanish food, this isn't a bad idea at all. The patates and Estrella helped give it a local flavour, and the burger themselves have been tweaked (sauces/bread used). Definitely recommend this to someone who is over eating tapas! Prices are great and the owner is super nice! Would be back if I returned to Barcelona :) thank you for a wonderful meal. read more

Wonderful, unique flavors. The word "sandwich" does not do it justice. Whether you get a burger or a chicken sandwich, you won't be disappointed, and you will leave happy and full. Keep in mind that there is very limited seating, so if you go at a busy time you'll have to get your order to go. read more

My whole family loved the food. The veggie sandwich, la especial, and the classic was the best in Barcelona.

I've been to tons of a burger places from the States, France, Amsterdam, and there is literally no burger place better than Foc i Oli! The service was superb, and the la especial was juicy, very tasty, and the patatas we're really good! I also tried the el chivito and it was delicious as well! Highly would recommend anyone in Barcelona to definitely check this place out! read more

One of the best burger joints in Barcelona with plenty of charm. There are only 10 seats, so sometimes you need to wait. Menu is not huge, but everything is done really well. Been a few times and enjoyed it every time. Due to the size, they turn the tables effectively, which is a little unusual for Barcelona, but it does mean the wait isn't that long. read more

What a hamburger. Possibly the best hamburger I've ever had. This place is quaint and tiny, seats maybe 7 people unless they had a secret back area. read more

We ordered the Chavito & Chicken & spicy sandwich forget the name but regardless, BOTH were amazing. The potatoes on the side...WILD. I'm from LA so we have a diff take on burgers. You definitely can't compare to In & Out, it's a totally different vibe. Barcelonas best hole in the wall joint period read more

This place was superb! Needed a change of pace from tapas in Spain and this was it! We ordered El Chivito and the Chihuahua chicken burger; my wife and I shared half of each. I enjoyed the chicken sandwich more and she enjoyed their famous Chivito. Both were awesome though. The fries are a good compliment and we're hot and crispy just the way we like them! Service and atmosphere were also great. All in all it was a great dining experience. Highly recommend this place! Seating is very limited so get there before the crowd does! read more

They close at 11, and I walked in at 10:45, but they still served me (albeit carry-out), which I thought was awesome. They were out of chicken, so I got their signature el chivito. Easily top ten non-burger sandwiches I've ever had. Beef was tender, bacon crispy, vegetables crunchy. All thrown together on a fried, crispy bun with an excellently tangy, slightly spicy sauce. Absolutely worth a trip. The interior is tiny, and there is very little seating so I just took my sandwich to a nearby park bench. read more

I'm hesitating to write this review because I want this place all to myself! The Chivito is the best sandwich I've had in Europe. After my second bite, I immediately ordered a second sandwich -- it's a must have. read more

A very tasty restaurant tucked into a small storefront. I had the Blau burger with Bleu Cheese, carmelized onions and mushrooms. My girlfriend had the vegetarian sandwich and they were both extremely tasty. The burger meat was top quality and perfectly seasoned. The bun was perfect and held the burger without falling apart. The real star might've been the potatoes. I usually don't like thicker fried potatoes but these were both crispy and tender on the inside. This is a perfect spot for lunch and we even had some leftovers to bring back to the hotel! read more

I like food and Im quite picky and coming from NYC Ive had my fair share of good burgers and steak sandwiches and Im saying this place is just plain amazing for whatever that is worth to you. My wife and I visited here by accident the 1st time and were stunned at how tasty the house special, The Chivito, tasted. It was possibly our favorite meal and definitely our favorite lunch in Barcelona. As a general rule I dont like to go to a restaurant twice on a trip just to sample as much food as possible, after our first visit here I broke that rule. On the second visit my wife had the Foie Burger and I had a bite and that was super as well, I stuck with the Chivito. The service is excellent, the cozy atmosphere is nice, there is nothing bad I can say aside from them being too far from NYC so I have to dream about eating there again for a year. read more

Not going to lie, this place has the BEST gourmet burger I've ever had in my life, so far at least. So much flavor! All of the burgers and sandwiches have several ingredients that were so perfectly paired together to create an amazing balance of flavor and texture. The food took a while to come out but that was definitely a good thing because so much effort and care was put into making the dish taste the way it does. I was a bit hesitant seeing all the 5 star reviews thinking it was a scam but lol I was wrong the food really is 5 stars. Service is good as well we were asked a few times if we liked the food and if we needed anything. Wish we would have found this trip at the start of our trip instead of at the end haha... So good definitely try it if you're in Barcelona! read more

Foc i Oli - Chicken sandwich with fried sausage. Soooo good! - Sandwiches Near Me - Barcelona, B

I was looking forward to coming here since reading some reviews before I left home in Los Angeles. It surpassed my expectations. We arrived right at opening at 7pm and thank goodness - there was already a group of people waiting to get in. There are only a dozen or so stools and we got the last few. The Chivito is simply the best burger/sandwich ive ever had. I've had all the high-fallutin ones in LA and this one leaves them in the rear view. Every burger/sandwich was, in fact, beyond excellent. The bread, the meat, every ingredient was beyond reproach. And the service was kind and modest. If this place was in any American big city it'd have a huge following. I'm serious when I say that it's a crime this place isn't famous to foodies. The. Again, perhaps it's good that it isn't. For as it is, it's a real gem and not overly-precious and pretentious. read more

So worth 5 stars! Service is great and willing to explain the menu (in English). I had the house specialty Chivito which had steak, ham, bacon, and a dressing that taste amazing!the homemade potatoes were cooked just right and were seasoned to perfection. There are no tables just bar seating so I would suggest going for a quick lunch versus a full blown dinner. Overall great! read more

It's the food, the food, I promise, it's the food!! My favorite is the el Chivito, but the other sandwiches are just as good! The veggie sandwich is amazing as is the Normando.
