My friend and I ordered some tapas like calamari and shrimp. We ordered the seafood paella too. The calamari was good but I've had better..shrimp was nice and garlicky. The seafood paella was just okay. No real seasoning but atleast they give you a decent amount of seafood. Overall I thought the meal was okay.

For the second time in so many trips to Barcelona, this turned out to be the best meal. I really…read morelike seafood paella, and this place does not disappoint. Came here on my first night in town. Made a reservation online - easy. This time Carballeira was really close to my hotel, so easy to get to. Nice, pleasant service and a stylish atmosphere. I was greeted by name (nice!) and seated where I could see both the dining room and the open (and sparkling clean) kitchen. Being a paella amateur enthusiast, it was fun getting to watch the kitchen make paella (I picked up some nice tips). Really nice place. I had the pan con tomate (Barcelona, of course?) and the seafood paella. Both times I've been here I have read that the dish is for two. Both times I have offered to pay for two people just to have the paella. Both times I've been turned down and told that they would make it for one. So nice. For a solo business traveler many times that does not happen. Great of the establishment to do so. I wish there would be a little more in the paella, but what is there is so tasty! Delicious seafood paella. The best I've had in the city. You will not be disappointed. Nice flan for dessert - perfect ending. Go check out Carballeira's!

Maybe if they are not busy, walk ins are acceptable. We were here on a Tuesday at 1pm, when they open. It is a nicer, upscale, sit down and take your time kind of restaurant. Seems like dinner time maybe busier than the lunch time but we liked how quiet and not too crowded when we were here for lunch. We ordered Octopus in Galician style, assorted seafood, Iberian acorn-fed Ham and charcoal grilled vegetables. The Octopus in Galician style was the best. I can't believe how soft these octopus are! It does not feel like octopus at all and the seasoning goes well with the steamed potatoes it came with. Charcoal grilled vegetables and assorted seafood were also good. The shrimps were a bit hard to shell but other than that, no complaints. Full of ocean flavor in each of them! Iberian acorn-fed Ham was a bit disappointing though. I could get very similar tasting jamon iberico at any grocery store at fraction of the price. Probably should have stuck with seafood at a seafood restaurant!

I ordered a burger and it was really good, but I didn't like the type of fries it came with (too thick). My friend ordered an empanada as well as some cheese and papas bravas, and they were all just okay.

My only qualm with it was that we were seated in the back area and it seemed like we never had a consistent waiter. We got our drinks and then didn't get our food order in for a solid 30 minutes. Then we didn't see a waiter until about 20 minutes after our food was gone. We actually had to ask a random waiter if we could pay. Other than that oddity, the food is well worth it.

Got the nigiri which comes with two pieces. The truffle was good but way too much rice for the rice to meat ratio. The Matrimonio was a new item with anchovies with jam on ciabatta crostini's but just wasn't my jam. Ceviche was probably the best thing we had that evening. It's made with sea bass, corn, and red onions. We're used to ceviche being served with tortilla chips or plantain chips but this wasn't served with anything so we saved our crostini's and used those to accompany the ceviche. The foie gras and tenderloin was bland and really nothing that stood out. We were looking forward to trying them too. Overall, an okay place to dine if you're in the area but not anything I'd seek out.
