O yum! Just went here last weekend and it's like Spain in NL. The only way you know otherwise is to…read morehear people speaking Dutch and to see the prices (not expensive for NL at all but compared to Spain, yes). There are many sandwich options to choose from both warm and cold as well as warm and cold tapas. My friend and I each had a sandwich and a drink and shared 3 tapas. We ended up each paying about 11-12 euros. And the quality was excellent. Really a good lunch. This place is busy. There are people waiting for tables both inside and outside.It's small so depending on how many people there are it may take a while. For us we only had to wait about 5 minutes. There are people walking in all the time to get sandwiches to go or to buy deli meats/cheeses/tapas. Definitly try this place out for lunch!

The food served were definitely the traditional Spanish tapas. We had the pata negra jamon Iberico which were okay but was really hoping to get the acorn-fed black pig ham but they did not have it. Other dishes we tried were the pulpo (octopus), boquerones (sardines) served in olive oil and garlic, ham and codfish croquettes, bread with aioli. Total was about 46 EU. I really enjoyed the sardines and the croquettes but the other dishes were just okay. The place was very lively with scribbles of writings on the wall left by the patrons.

We were definitely in a neighborhood spot for locals but they didn't seem to mind that we were tourists from America. The menu was printed in English but it had familiar items from tapas restaurants in the US. The tapas prices were reasonable for the quality of food but I wish there was a bit more on each plate as we ended up ordering doubles of some plates because we just needed a few more bites. I felt like we ordered most of the menu because either everything looked delicious or it tasted delicious. Inside the restaurant, it is very cozy and quaint and somewhat dark but many Dutch restaurants have the same ambiance. We enjoyed our meal and I would definitely return here again to enjoy some other wonderful menu items.

Lovely little place for a date in Amsterdam. The tapas were…read morenicely presented and tasted good. The tomato salad was seasoned well, and we enjoyed the burrata and avocado, though the burrata was a bit chewier I would have liked. The highlight was the octopus, it was the most tender I have ever tasted! We also got the fried sole which was seasoned and cooked just right. It was a good full portion of the fish. Prices feel a bit steep for the portions of the other dishes at €7-9 per plate.

When he brought us the bottled iced teas, he also brought us two glasses of water... So I guess you only get water if you order another drink? Tips for ordering: The "rib eye pork" pieces were super rare. Eat at your own risk. Don't order paella unless you have 2 hours to eat dinner. The paella took 1 hour and 30 minutes to come out!! When we ordered, the female server said the paella takes 20 minutes.

I really wanted to enjoy this place more than I did, but the menu is very limited compared to what I have seen in other tapas restaurants. I chose the croquettes and a toasted bread with a tomato topping. Both were okay, but rather bland. In my opinion, the menu could use a revamp.

We visited Barca for drinks and it was a solid place for them. While we were in the area, we…read morestopped by here as another nearby bar was packed and couldn't find any seats. Therefore, Barca came to our rescue. Barca is a Spanish restaurant, so red wine is a must. And from what we discovered, Barca had the best prices for wine, compared to many bars we had visited. Glasses were about six bucks, US dollars, and the pours were fair. Yet, if wine isn't your thing, they do have a full bar. Many people were dining in, and what came out of the kitchen looked yummy! But the bar area that we were in was spacious and nice. Service was also very good. Glad to have found a place while traveling for glasses of malbec.

We went here after getting in from a long flight from Chicago. It was a random decision, but one I…read moredo not regret. It was a quaint little restaurant and we sat outside even though it was chilly. The servers were extremely helpful and friendly. The food was Spanish tapas and it was some of the best food I've ever had. Chicago's tapas restaurants cannot hold a candle to this. Everything was good. I really loved the anchoa which was an anchovy toast and the berenjas which was like a crispy eggplant with mushrooms.

The food is incredible, eggplant, mushrooms, paella, good service! This is a must visit.read more

Nothing was really very "Cuban" about it - it was more Spanish I would say. The cocktails were super sweet and clearly just alcohol (barely any) mixed with pre-made cocktail mixes, which is a bit unfortunate. The service was also a bit slow :(

The restaurant serves only tapas for main course, and I was pleased to see an entire section dedicated to vegetarian tapas! I order three plates - grilled mushroom with garlic butter, sweet peppers with stuffed paella and cheese croquettes with sherry dressing. The last one was quite interesting, and the other two were so-so. Next came dessert - vanilla pudding with caramel, which was heavenly! While the tapas and service were good, I would give them only 3 stars. Added the extra star for the dessert and brilliant vibe/ambience/character of the place. I think it would be great place for weekend drinks + dinner in a large group. PS - they also have an all-you-can-eat deal for Sunday to Thursday evening.
