Ordered quite a few tapas dishes; everything was unique and delicious, but the fried artichokes were really good and not like anything I've had before! They make their sangria with red wine or cava; we chose the red wine option, and I can't stop thinking about how refreshing this was to drink. Though they offered paella, we came in strictly for the tapas, so we didn't order a paella dish. The waitstaff were very attentive, and at one point after a rowdy group came in, they apologized for the noise, which we didn't take offense to at all. I'd recommend Encercle for anybody looking for a good tapas restaurant in the Eixample area!

Many restaurants are closed on Sunday evenings, but we were lucky enough to snag early dinner reservations on a balmy evening in May. As we settled into our booth, our waiter Marco stopped by for our drinks order while we perused the menu. I asked Marco if he knows what a Lemon Drop is (not every restaurant in Spain does) and he said, "Of course!" Boyfriend ordered his usual very dry martini, up with a twist. First up was the Mr. Porter focaccia bread with a hummus, herbs, olive oil and yogurt dip, a different bread choice from most steakhouses and really fresh and good. Next was the Taboon Roasted Foie Gras, which was flavorful, rich and perfectly cooked. We ordered steaks, peppercorn sauce and a side of the Black Garlic Broccoli, perfectly cooked and just wonderful. Marco was so funny and sweet and attentive. He took a photo of us to remember our trip by. This is among the best steakhouses we've visited worldwide. We will definitely return on our next trip to Barcelona.

I recommend making a reservation if you can, but I'm sure they allow walk-ins. The gentleman that served us was kinda and patient. He walked us through some of his recommendations. Their menu is scanned through a QR code with videos and pictures of all the paellas you can order. As our first time, we went with the classic 'The one from the beach bar' with shrimp, crayfish, and squid. The minimum order is for 2 people, so it was 50€. This was absolutely delicious, and very flavorful. This paella left a very good impression on us, and had us wondering if we could have paella this good back in the States. Perhaps we were hungry... perhaps us, Texans, just eat a lot. We decided to order a second one 'The Clumsy One' with duck magret and mushrooms. Since we had already 2 portions from the last the paella, the kindly allowed us to order 1 portion for this paella, 28.50€. When in Barcelona, you have to eat duck. It's just so good here. Duck was cooked perfectly. I think I might've liked this one better than 'The one from the beach bar.' Just a tip to actually order this one first because it does take a while to cook! Worth the wait, in my opinion! While waiting, we ordered a couple drinks. If you like sweet, you'll love the Valencia Libre - pretty much a spiked horchata. I highly recommend the clover club! Such a cute girly drink :)

They have both outdoor and indoor seating. I really liked the table that is just inside the door- you get a good view for people watching of the street and the restaurant below. Our server was very friendly and helpful with ordering. We got a pesto pasta, Alfredo, Caesar salad and pizza with sausage. Portions are big and set to share. This place is kid friendly, my toddler had access to a high chair and was very happy with her pasta options. The salad was a bit overdressed and the Caesar dressing was more creamy than I'd like but the toppings including fried chicken were very tasty. I liked my pesto a lot. My mom was happy with the Alfredo and the pizza was also a crowd pleaser. I recommend getting white wine with your meal although my husband was happy with their strong beer.
