They did bus the tables to seat people with a noticeable quickness. They have a rotating daily menu that changes the specials each day. We ended up here 3x and each time had different foods. Some evenings we enjoyed make the others so it'll depend on what menu items you get each day. Food came quick, service was prompt, and prices were more than reasonable.

The food, what can I say, it was delicious. Pictures don't do it justice, and we all thoroughly enjoyed it. The nachos were not at all what we expected, better than expected!

That was probably a good idea because after we were seated a majority of the tables did fill up. Lunch included bread, a drink of choice, appetizer, entree, and dessert for 18.90 euros. The service was very good and the courses flowed nicely. Food was tasty and had a very homey, comforting feel. I felt the dessert was very small but other than that everything was great. A good place for lunch or a drink if you are in the L'Eixample neighborhood!

It was a nice morning so I decided to walk the 2.8 km to get there. Place has outdoor seating and small inside seating. I was warmly greeted upon entering. I ask the person for food suggestions and decided to order their jabugo (jamon iberico) sandwich (7.50 euros), patatas bravas (6.00 euros), and mushroom croquettes (9 euros). Sandwich came out first and was delicious. Bread had a soft crunch to it and the filling was tasty. Potatoes and croquettes came out later and were nice and hot. Both hit the spot. I also received a fried pork belly dish which was crispy and tasty too. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Place is so cozy. I enjoyed my visit.

The restaurant was pretty much empty aside from a couple people sitting outside. We ordered a bunch of tapas within 10 mins of sitting as well as a vegetarian paella, which we were told would take 20 mins. Our server repeated our order to us twice. Not only did we not receive everything we ordered, we got served things we didn't want i.e tomato bread. When asked about the other food we were told it wasn't coming. Why was that not shared earlier?? That definitely impacted our experience. The food we did have was decent. I enjoyed the patatas bravas. The calamari was cooked well, but definitely needed more salt. The croquettes were okay, but the sangria was delicious! I never had a sparkling sangria before.

The two bartenders -- who seem to be a couple -- are the heart of the place. He's got a dry, hilarious sense of humor that sets the tone, and together they make everyone feel like a regular. That said, if you're easily offended or don't appreciate a bit of cheeky banter, this might not be your spot. But for those who enjoy a fun, unfiltered vibe -- you'll love it here. As for the food -- wow. We had the tortilla with meat (not sure what it was, but it was delicious), the artichoke tempura (I would fly across the world again just for these), the fried eggplant, and the meat with chimichurri. Everything was fresh and flavorful. Great food, unforgettable personalities, and a place that feels alive. Take a handheld fan because it is hot - especially during summer.

It's about a 6 minute taxi ride from there. We were seated in the back room with the writing covering the walls. The front bar seemed a little livelier but we took what was offered. Husband had house red wine (3.50 euros) and I had sangria (4.50 euros). Good pours for both. We started with the red shrimp (gambillos) in a lemongrass sauce, about 6 shrimp for 15 euros. Then grilled octopus (which was very tender) over mash potatos and snap peas for 15 euros. We also had a side of grilled bread (4 pieces) for 3.5. We also ordered the Pepita beef with mash potato but took home for dinner as we were full (18 euros). We finished with the homemade corn ice cream with carmelized popcorn and raspberries, which was very unique at 6.5. We added our names to the wall to top off the meal. Service was quick and friendly.
