Great tapas restaurant in Barcelona. I came here after seeing recommendations online and the…read morereviews looked good. It's a little out of the way but we enjoyed the food and atmosphere. We were seated right away. My husband ordered a coke and we ordered some tapas for the table. We ordered some PATATICAS BRAVICAS, CROQUETAS and JAMONCICO IBÉRICO. Everything was delicious and the food came out pretty quickly. The food looked fresh and the prices are very affordable. The restaurant isn't far from a train station and it's actually a quick walk. After walking around the touristy areas in Barcelona being able to go to another part of the city was a great idea. There were tourists there too but not as many. As far as the language, the waiter was able to understand us and I speak a little bit of Spanish too that was enough to order the food. I used the bathroom and it was clean. We were seated inside but they also had outdoor seating.

We had one of each kind of the croquettes with my personal favorite being the goat cheese. The octopus was very tender, a bit different than the more rubbery texture back in the States so that is something to consider if you're going to order. I had to talk my wife into the Picasso eggs and they ended up being her favorite thing (mine too).

Also, at this location, they are a very aggressive about getting customers through their doors, which is a bit of a turn of for me. Just let me browse the menu before trying to seat me. The after meal, mint tea was good as were the assortment of sweets (baklava), but the food in general was just ok. A bit pricey for just ok food.

The restaurant is popular among locals...I could tell that my the fact that our waiter/waitress were slightly limited in English language ability, the menu was a little limited with English description and even the whole RSVP confirmation process was done in Spanish! :) The restaurant is quite small so I recommend you book ahead of time. We managed to book a little more than a month and were glad we did! The restaurant tables were all reserved within 30 min of opening and we saw then turn away a couple who were the first to enter the restaurant the moment it opened, too. The food was all good! They are Spanish tapas style but offera a little different variation than what your average touristy places offer. I liked that they offer diff sizes for almost all their dishes..so you can try many dishes as you wish! We ordered close to 10 dishes..*gulp*..our eyes were definitely bigger than our stomachs...haha..but the dinner journey was awesome..every dish was tasty (even the black rice which we both had no idea was made of blood sausage...had we known..we probably wouldn't have ordered..but they still tasted good!!) And were definitely full coming out of the restaurant. Yet...the whole bill....was super affordable!! All those dishes we ordered..came out just $90ish total (net..including generous tips)! Would definitely love to stop by Semproniana if I have a chance to be in Barcelona again. Don't forget to make reservations ahead of time though!! Read around the reviews...RSVP is definitely needed here!

Think Catalan cuisine, local Spanish wines, and Barcelona futbol playing on the corner tv. This is not your tourist trap spot with a large menu claiming the best tapas in the city. This menu is modest and includes some of the best tapas I had the pleasure of enjoying during my year stay. I frequented this spot mainly for their Vermouth Wings and Garlic Mushrooms - I will return to Spain just for these dishes. I would also enjoy a glass of their local vermouth or "vermut", served with an orange slice and two olives (the correct way to drink vermut). You also cannot go wrong with their Pan de Tomate or Spanish Omelette (Spanish tortilla). The staff is friendly, the beer is cold - what more could you want?

We stumbled across this place in our first evening in Barcelona in a small alley off of La Rambla,…read moreand it turned out to be the best food experience of our trip. We were the only foreigners in the restaurant, and the menu was only in Spanish at our table (though we later found out they had an English menu upon request). However, our amazing waiter whom I wish I asked for his name (young, tall Spanish guy with tied up hair) was so friendly and explained all the options. He even offered to move our table to a better view when one was available. He also brought free bread after he saw we had a lot of leftover sauce from our seafood dishes. We had no expectations coming in, but the tapas here made every other meal (including at nice reservation seafood restaurants) taste subpar. The octopus, snails, mussels/clams, and tomato bread were all PERFECT. The seasoning here has more of a strong, salty Cajun flavor to it which paired deliciously with their housemade cava and beer. I really wanted to gatekeep this tapas bar, but the service and food here was so amazing this place deserves to be recognized.
