    Delicious!! Found this little gem on my walk today. They had a beautiful selection. I had the one with mushrooms and cheese and the Thai chicken. Must try!

    Holy-Moly... My first experience with empanjada... wow!!! It was VERY tasty... we got tried only one, but it was so PERFECT.. liked spicy tune empanjada!!

    They have different menu options. The best deal is the 3 pastry and a drink.

    I really liked the food and the guy was friendly and nice. He really did a customer service. The food is really good and there is a big variety of stuffing so everyone can find their thing. I really loved the place and I think the different stuffing makes it possible for people who vegan, vegetarian or pescatarian to eat something on the go. It is really hard to find sometimes to eat if you have special dietary. The only thing what I would change is there is no available seats and after a long walk it would feel good to have a little rest

    Good empanadas at a good price! It's a great way to grab a quick bite of something hot. We tried the beef, mushroom and eggplant flavors and all tastes good. Not the best empanadas I've ever had (believe it or not, the best I've had was in San Francisco!) but decent, nonetheless. Very cute shop and friendly shopkeepers.

    Got 3, caprese, spicy chorizo, spinach

    Went here around 5:30 pm with a friend and the place was empty but all the empanadas looked great. I tried to order the Thai empanada but the guy said they were all out of it so I got 3 he recommended which was the spinach, caprese and spicy chorizo. My fav was the spicy chorizo but all 3 of my empanadas were hardly heated all the way through. They ask you if youd like them warmed up but when I started to eat them they were just slightly warmed up. Wish they heated them throughly through. Otherwise the place was good but not the best epanadaa I've ever had. A little over hyped with all the reviews.

    3.5* More emapandas! Not expensive either. I ordered the spicy tuna with egg, the regular tuna with egg and the cheese emapanda. It was more dry than other empanadas I've had but it was a cheap snack and there are a lot of cool options. The dough was a little too much compared to the filling. Staff was friendly!

    Ask them have it warmed. It's the best snack !

    Im so impressed with the variety & designs of crusts. What a great place to get some snacks today take to Park Gruell. This is a perfect snack to have and the crust was so thin & crispy. I had the Thai Chicken Curry and it was zesty. Loved it ! Kids had the jamon y queso & ate it in the taxi. Grab a bunch and eat them on the run. Modern empanadas with friendly service ! I will return.

    Chicken and beef with a bunch of add ins for flavour.

    For a quick bite this was great. The prices were pretty reasonable at €5 for 2 enchiladas and a drink. The assorted options was great and they were all packed with a lot of meats and flavours. There are even veggie offerings. There are not chairs and a small bar to stand at if you intend to eat it there or you can get it as take away.

    Stumbled upon this place on the way to the beach, and I loved the empanada's so much that I went to seek out one of their other locations in Gothic Quarter later that day. The shop is tiny but there is a lot of variety of empanadas. My favorite was the spicy chicken. The dough is DELICIOUS! I love that they weren't oily yet had a lot of flavor. I was also impressed by the ambience itself - everything is clean. This will definitely be one of my first stops on my next trip to Barcelona.

    We saw these on one of our first few days in Spain, but we didn't stop. Tonight, I had a real craving for one and none of the others in town looked as good. I couldn't remember where we saw them, but we got lucky and came across it. Didn't disappoint. They had a deal we weren't aware of, but the cashier let us know. I may have to have another before going back to America. The pollo Thai was my absolute fave.

    M M.

    Excellent! Stopped in on our way back from the beach. Had a Thai chicken and a traditional beef with raisins. Both were delicious and we talked about returning a day later for more even though we were not staying anywhere close by. Price was fair at about 2.50 each.

    I was drawn into this establishment by the wonderful aroma of fresh dough being baked into heavenly empanadas. Barcelona has a lot of places to satisfy the palate but... La Fabrica is definitely the go to spot in the Gothic Quarter!!!!! The dough is made fresh and the selections of ingredients to fill the empanadas is great!!!! I bought one to try and before I walked away I bought 12 more and had them packaged for me to take back to the USA the next day. This is a must-do while site seeing and is perfect walk-around food to enjoy. I highly recommend and most definitely will return here next year!!!!

    Plenty of empanada options to choose from. Not to pricy for the location. Tried the mushroom empanada. It was pretty good. The ratio of bread to filling was appropriate. I wish I would have tried more, but we just happened upon it while waiting to get into the Picasso museum.

Gorgeous Cave-Like setting right in the heart of The Gothic Quarter. For food we got: - both Peach and Red Sangria's - maybe the best in Spain. 15 Euros so not cheap - Pan Con Tomate - first time having this dish -- great, - Iberian "Pluma" Acorn Fed Pork - so tender and amazing! - Cod (Bacalao) - perfectly baked I must give a shout out to our amazing waiter LUCAS who spoke excellent english and gave some perfect recommendations. We got here at 7:30 and it was quiet -- but quickly filled up and was totally full by 8:30. It's more expensive than most restaurants but for that you get quality service, superb food, linen napkins, and soft jazz music. We wanted to come again the next night but it was totally booked! Trip Advisor rates this as #57 (as of May 2026) but I think it should be in the top 10. Book a table early guys -- this restaurant will not disappoint you!

A far cry from the Sangria served in tourist spots, this is the real deal. BF loved the Island Sangria. Highly recommend Pluma Iberica for pork eaters. Served with a delicious peanut sauce. Lucas took excellent care of us. First class waiter. The restaurant is in what appears to be a cave. Delightful atmosphere. Very classy with linen napkins, etc. A little more expensive than some other local restaurants but worth it. Outstanding value. Be sure to reserve a table in advance.

    Chalito ended up being such a good find. My friend and I stumbled across it after watching a…read moreflamenco show near La Rambla, and I'm glad we did. Chalito is a chain restaurant in Spain that specializes in Argentinian milanesas, which are thin breaded meat cutlets topped with all kinds of good stuff, and I knew I had to try one. I ordered the Milanesa Mallorquina with sobrasada, Mahón cheese, honey, and a mozzarella base, and it was absolutely delicious. The mix of savory and sweet worked so well together. I also tried a slice of my friend's serrano pizza, and that was really good too. Another thing I liked was that they offer their own special aiolis to choose from. As somebody who loves extra sauce on the side, that was a huge plus for me. The food impressed me so much that I ended up going back to a different Chalito location in Madrid just to try the sausage and chili oil pizza, and it was just as bomb. Their portions are so huge I didn't have room for dessert on either of my visits, but their cheesecake looks amazing, I'll have to grab a slice on a future visit The service was excellent, and I appreciated that they had menus in both Spanish and English. The restaurant is also very spacious, which made the whole experience feel easy and relaxed. You do not really have to stress about getting a table or making reservations, which is always nice when you are traveling. Overall, Chalito is a great spot if you want a satisfying meal in Spain without all the hassle of planning ahead. I would definitely recommend it whether you are visiting or already local.

    Great alternative to carb heavy pizza. Friendly service…read more Thin crispy chicken cutlet topped like a pizza. Very good. Will try other flavors soon.
