With so many great places to eat, fitting this place in midday really helped us maximize the culinary tour de force that was our trip to Barcelona. Our waiter, Tomaso, was a delight. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and knew exactly when to come to our table and when to give us space. At the end of the meal we had a lovely conversation and he told us why Barcelona is such an international city and how easy it was to be a transplant from Italy. Almost as good as our meal was the environment. There was one other person dining there, someone my partner aptly described as an "international man of mystery." He was gregarious and clearly living his best life. Every dish, he would ask Tomaso to pick out a wine and each time he would say, "Money is no object!" or that the price did not matter. He loved everything Tomaso brought and it did not appear at thought Tomaso took advantage of this man's willingness to spend top dollar, even though the man asked it his name was, "To-mah-to." This place lives up to everything you hear about Barcelona being gastronomic paradise with more Michelin stars per capita than just about anywhere.

We sat outside for a glass or two of fresh made sangria while having a few Catalan tapas for a little American Happy Hour. This was not the intended place to stop that afternoon but because of the menu posted outside with all the great pictures, it caught my eye. I was quickly approached by the owner, but in a friendly way, encouraging me to take a seat. Hey, it worked, because I did. We never felt rushed to order and we made the first move with a glass of red sangria. It was a full wine glass with a fresh slice of lemon and orange. No cheap fillers, just wine! After looking through the menu, some true Catalan dished had to be ordered and I can really appreciate that not only were there great pictures of every item, they also had English printed under each one. Pescaditos Fritos (small fried fish) were a shareable portion and even with the heads still on them, they were not too greasy and the seasoning was perfect. As a usual choice we try at every tapas restaurant, the Pan con Tomato (tomato toast) was very good. The bread was a little crispy but so fresh and had a nice amount of tomato topping with chunky salt on the side. Also very shareable. I loved the outside umbrella covered seating and the food was very good. I will definitely come back again to sample some more tapas from this very good restaurant.

The decision about what to eat was very difficult but I think we made the good choice. Started off with Oysters and a shellfish extravaganza.

Like the food, the wines are local Catalan or Spanish and excellent. Off the beaten path so don't worry about loud tourists, very romantic. And the owner is very attentive. Please go.

I…read moresaw this place featured on a YouTube video back home and noticed it was a fair distance from the city center. I shrugged it off until I noticed the restaurant was on the way back from a failed hike we took to Sitges' isolated gay nude beach. We gave up when the trail got too rocky. So instead of getting forlorn about the naked bodies we didn't get to see, we walked here. Unexpectedly it's in a campground albeit a nice one with a swimming pool and a supermarket. The restaurant itself was quite spacious and targeted to families with foosball and pool tables on one side and a big family reunion on the other. We were just happy to sit down in a relatively quiet spot. We started with the refreshing 9,9€ Melon with Ham, a good-size plate of thin slices of jamon accompanied by chunks of fresh honeydew (photo: https://yelp.to/yRtfE6e6xi). Our main event, of course, was the 37,9€ Seafood Paella for Two, which was personally mixed and allocated at our table. The bomba rice was perfectly blended with the chicken broth and saffron. The seafood was fresh and generous with plenty of mussels and calamari with a couple of large langostino (photo: https://yelp.to/tC7qcj0dBK). The result was a hearty, plentiful meal and quite satisfying. Considering how many competing distractions they had, the staff was particularly cordial to us and checked up on us frequently. BTW Ohana is a Hawaiian term that means 'family'. I was wondering if that was intentional.

The seafood paella is amazing (shrimp was so fresh as well as squid and mussels), and rice was deliciously seasoned, as well as the expresso drinks (my cappucino came in three layers, espresso, cream and froth). We ordered seafood paella and with the white anchovy appetizer (served cold w EVOO and vinaigrette). Amazing. The owner named her restaurant after the Hawaiian word for family, "ohana" and sure feels like you're dining with Ohana. Tip: When navigating and trying to find with a taxi, the restaurant is next to the "Camp", which is very random, and right off a round about turn, so if you see a sign for Camp (this is near a beach, so tourists/retirees stay here in their mobile unit, but it's not what you think, it's a nice area in a wealthy part of town of Sitges).

An enterprising local named Martin runs the front of the house, and his cousin mans the kitchen. Populated with local regulars, the restaurant cast good fortune upon us as we landed a bar table just about five minutes after we arrived. We ordered the 19,5€ pitcher of refreshing Sangria because neither of us are heavy duty wine drinkers (Photo 7). We shared three dishes all impeccably prepared and generously portioned. The first were the 8,5€ Padron Peppers (Photo 10). They were perfectly charred and blistered as we munched on them nonstop throughout our meal. We must've dodged the tongue-numbing ones entirely. The second dish was the 7,9€ Our Bravas presented as their in-house take on patatas bravas (Photo 6). Coincidentally, we had a similar rendition at a paella restaurant in Valencia just the evening before. The potato chunks were perfectly tender. Laminated in olive oil, they were covered in a thick tomato sauce and drizzled with a rich aioli. The scene stealer, however, was the entree, the 17€ Argentine-Style Grilled Skirt Steak prepared medium with a side of homemade potatoes (Photo 8). We don't eat red meat much, but they did such a fine job tenderizing the meat that it became meltingly good. We were so overwhelmed by the portions we did the unthinkable on vacation, asked for a takeout box for our leftovers. Surprisingly, it was Jamie who encouraged us to order a shared dessert, the 8,5€ Charcoal-Grilled Brownie with Amaretto Toffee and Vanilla Ice Cream. Hot off the grill, it was quite a treat with the ice cream holding steady against the melting brownie (Photo 9). A superb meal.

There are two sections, the restaurant with full menu, and the ultra casual, crowded cafe which has sandwiches, snacks and drinks (and most times a wait for a table). Our coffee break always transformed into eating sandwiches and tapas. The Pimientos de Padròn (grilled peppers) in olive oil were tasty. They look like hot chili peppers but taste more like shishito peppers. Tuna sandwiches were ok. Coffee, lattes and Cortado hit the spot. We were amazed watching the cafe servers memorize orders from so many tables to cover, especially as they were constantly stopped by different customers while walking back and forth. La Caleta is a nice beachy spot when you need a sun break. There is only one other outdoor cafe you can go to that is steps from the beach. Just remember to put some clothes or a swimsuit on LOL.

Jamie W and I didn't doff our own skivvies, thank goodness, but we were thirsty. Anyway, it was a good thing this patio restaurant was conveniently on the beachwalk. We let them know we only wanted to quench our thirst, so they seated us on the fringe of the patio. It was a no-brainer for us to order the €19.30 pitcher of Sangria which of course hit the spot on a particularly balmy day (Photo 8). The veteran female server was hovering over us trying to encourage us to order food. We weakened and ordered the €2.70 bag of Potato Chips and the €3.80 Castelvetrano Olives (Photo 10).

I should have looked at Yelp - 3.1 stars. We ordered a Caesar salad, shrimps with garlic and a gazpacho for an appetizer. Both the salad and gazpacho were well served but the shrimps were a little on the tasteless side - let's say a hint of garlic. For the main course, we had the mussels (that's an appetizer), the chicken and vegetable paella and the meat, fish, and seafood paella. The mussels were good. The chicken and vegetable paella was good but don't expect much in terms of chicken - 2 little chicken wings and a tiny leg. The meat, fish, and seafood paella (which is what I had) was salty and didn't have any meat. It had 1 chicken wing, 1 chicken leg, 2 clams, 2 mussels, and 2 langostino. There was no meat. I checked the language for a poor translation, but it says carne in Spanish, not pollo. I did ask at the end of the meal. They all said, "Yes, Chicken." I said, "then why does it say carne? It doesn't say pollo." They seem concerned and went to the back kitchen and inquired why there was no meat. The answer that was given was, "I forgot." I explained that if I wanted chicken, I could've ordered the Pollo. They really had nothing else to say. An aside, it was salty too. The tart tatin with vanilla ice cream was so so. When I've been served this is other restaurants, even other cities, the tart is warmed up. Not here. Ice cold. The chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream was good. Overall, look elsewhere. I'm sure you can do better.
