We dined early to ensure we got in, and this proved to be a good decision. The night before at 10 pm the place was jammed, so 730 while early was so worth it. The decor is casual and comfortable. The food is outstanding. We started with the fois gras, the croquettes, the aubergne, and the cod fritters. Each dish was special in its own way and I wonder how they make something so simple taste so good (aubergne - how do they do that??). I highly recommend. Not to be missed! read more

The only thing worse than the food was the service. The special menu of the day was a rip-off and the waitress with the septum piercing was rude. If you're looking for a relaxing, lovely lunch in Barcelona, keep walking because there are so many other places far better than this! read more

Recommended by friends and we were lucky enough to grab two communal seats since it was a Saturday night and we didn't have reservations. The food was absolutely fantastic, highly recommend everything we had: the Tuna Tataki, Beet Carpaccio w/Prawns, and the Pork Shoulder w/Sweet Potato Fritters - Todos Delicioso! read more

unique and modern way to eat tapas. Mostly everything we ate was delicious and the staff were organized and friendly. room was gorgeous!

One word-amazing!!! I was a little skeptical at the beginning cos the decor looks too nice and trendy, and it's a gastropub-not sure if I'm gonna get some good Spanish tapas. Guess what? I'm wrong. The tapas might not be the most traditional, for the most part it's a little fusion-but they are absolutely delicious and you feel like you are eating local fresh ingredients every bite. The ham and cheese is 100% authentic-fine dining iberico ham and artisan cheese are so good-I feel like I can't go back to eat at another restaurant for some mediocre tapas l after this meal. Food Is superb and service is great! Highly recommended! read more

We stopped here on spec for a beer and a bit of tapas and it was so good we came back a few days later for dinner. It was terrific - the tapas selection of meat was divine (1/2 portion is enough for 2 sharing) accompanied by delicious tomato bread. Our waiter was helpful and advised us to reserve the cheese plate to after our entrees and also suggested wines for each course. The cod with liquorice and the baby cuttlefish with black rice were amazing and the wines a perfect match. Everything looks and tastes good here. Entrees are modest, and pica- pica plates on the generous side. Great quality food at reasonable prices (for a high-end eaterie). We shared 1/2 plates of meat and cheese, 2 entrees and 2 desserts with a cava, white and red wine each for c. €80. read more

This was a hidden jewel for dinning and drinking for all the family that we luckily found after a long walk around Barcelona. Service was very friendly, helpful and quick. Our party had vegetarians and both the waiter and chief gladly embraced our requirements. Suggestions for local wines were excellent. Nothing fancy, just pure and simple place with lovely food and drink, highly recommended. read more

Came for coffee and breakfast. Decent espresso and good chocolate croissant and tortilla. Place is clean and atmosphere mixture of old and new. No concerns with service at our visit. I'd be happy to go back. read more

Stopped in on a rainy day after a recommendation by our Barcelona guide. The "foreigner" menus were in English and French. We loved the tuna, salmon carpaccio, cod fish fritters, veal cheeks, and mushrooms with squid. Even my difficult-to-please father who never tries new things enjoyed the light meal. Our particular server didn't seem so happy (bad day?) but he was quick and apologized when the veal took a long time. Another friendly server pointed us to a souvenir shop after so we could get something before hopping back on our cruise ship. read more

We celebrated our anniversary here while traveling in Barcelona and would say this was our favorite meal of the entire trip (Portugal and Spain). The service was outstanding. The wine our server suggested, Pardas Sumoll, was so delicious that I ordered some bottles be shipped to our home (I hope they arrive tomorrow!!!). I would order everything we had again...We had the tuna, tomato bread, jabon, and pork confit. Every bite was wonderful. I would highly suggest dining here while in the area. read more

Amazing service and excellent exceptional food. Best meal in Barcelona! You have to go if you are in town. Our server was superb. Helpful and honest. You won't regret it. read more

Glad this place came highly recommended by our hotel concierge...tapas was delicious...even my pickiest eater enjoyed the meal:)

We had reservations for my friends birthday and enjoyed a seat between the kitchen service window and bar. The energy was lively, a nice mix of locals and tourists and the menu offered morsels if happiness. It is a nice break from the traditional tapas menus and the presentation of the dishes is quite creative. read more

Love this restaurants food, drinks and ambiance!! The wait staff was very attentive and checked in on our table frequently which was nice. We tried several tapas all which were fantastic. The pan con tomate and grilled beef they serve is a definite must. We also had a Catalan cheese plate, some sort of beef with a mustard ice cream and the cuddle fish with black rice. All really good! read more

Bit unfriendly, or more uninterested staff but very nice food and good wine. Thought it was a bit unclear what they where trying to explain with regards to the portions and rounds but I think that the average table of two orders 4 - 5 dishes. For starters you can get half portions too. If you pick the tuna or salmon (carpaccio) I would go for a big portion though, we really enjoyed those. This place is a bit more expensive then average and it seems to be quite popular. Make reservations and count 40 - 75 euro a person. read more

This place is quite good! The best tomato bread I have had in Barcelona so far! All of the tapas we ordered had really nice presentation and good flavours. Wasn't a huge fan of the Catalan cheese board but maybe I just don't love Catalan cheese. Service was nice and friendly. We didn't have a reservation but they made it work and gave us a table which was a really nice gesture. I will return to this restaurant. read more

Stumbled across this restaurant and ate dinner here for our first night in Barcelona. The food was good for the most part although there were a few misses (the cheese board was very blue cheese heavy with no warning). However the service was very inattentive and sloppy throughout our meal (e.g. the waiter would say he was about to come back and take an order or offered to swap out our plates for clean plates, and then would forget and not come back until flagged). We ended up having many other better meals during our trip so would not return here. read more

Best meal we've had in Barcelona. Octopus was amazing, soft, melted in your mouth- not chewy! Salmon was served with vanilla ice cream which was odd but so good! The wine was recommended and really good. read more

Very good pica pica, just came hear for a quick meal on a Monday late night and the staff was great, the food amazing next time I need to try the main courses read more

Amazing!!!! The food was excellent and the place is really nice...might be a little pricey but worth it!!!!!

Amazing food ! Amazing service ! The octopus was amazing ! The codillo was espectacular !! A must go in Barcelona

Just ate at Llamber as a last second dinner after visiting the Picasso Museum. This is definitely one of the best tapas places that I have visited in Barcelona. The wait staff was very accommodating and managed to squeeze us in even though they were very busy. Now on to the important stuff. We started with Sangria de Cava which was very good. I appreciated that it actually tasted like wine. Not wimp sangria, awesome. We had the salmon carpaccio which came with ginger ice cream. I know. Ginger ice cream with salmon. But it was actually super tasty and went really well together. This was the highlight of the meal. We also had the green salad, parmesan fondue with king prawns and asparagus, tuna tataki, and pork shoulder confit. The tuna tataki and pork shoulder confit actually almost rivaled the salmon, but the tuna tataki's sauce was just a touch too smokey and the "cashew tofu" that came with the pork shoulder was pretty pointless and had a strange texture. Straight up no idea why that cashew tofu was there. Overall, Llamber was definitely one of the culinary highlights of my trip to Barcelona and I'd highly recommend it to anyone looking for a slightly nicer and tastier meal than your standard tapas joint. read more

Great find. Our hotel recommended it to us. Definitely not the place for a picky or unadventurous eater. We were disappointed they didn't serve sangria, but the tapas were interesting and good. Service takes their time so definitely say something if you're in a rush.the salmon carpaccio was fantastic. Also black rice with cuttlefish was excellent. Good for a long lunch or dinner. read more

Excellent food, nicely presented. We were a group of 4 people and were not very hungry so ordered half portions of prawns with asparagus, prawns with beetroot, salmon, scorpion fish and potatoes. It was delicious! read more

This was one of our favorite meals for our trip. It's upscale and different tapas then you see normally. We made a reservation so when we arrived we didn't need to wait, which was good since almost all tables were occupied on a Monday night. We had 4 people so we chose a few tapas and a few main dishes and we were satisfied and full at the end of the meal. We really enjoyed their black rice, anchovies, cuddle fish and veal. Our waiter recommended some great wines for us to try and we were all happy I'd recommend it to our friends and go again when we visit next. read more

1st visit last year was great - fantastic service. Unfortunately that experience did not repeat itself. Food was ok but service from some of the staff was horrible - arrogant and not friendly at all. There's a 50/50 chance that your visit will be a success. read more

Best quality/price relation ive found in Barcelona. We were a group of 8 and called for a reservation on a Wednesday to attend on a Friday, after som.e insistance we got the table, our reservation was very late at 1030 pm, the table was not ready so we waited at the bar with a couple of beers, we had high expectations of this place so we were pacient and we were not dissapointed, there are two types of plates in this place, tapas and main dishes, i recommend a selection of both and to share the plates. We started with the shrimp and sparragus fondue wich was very tasty, went on with the octopus(our favorite plate) and finished with the entrecot, for the final one best meat ive ever had in Barcelona and the fried yuca was quite interesting. To drink a tempranillo from Castilla and an Albarino, perfect!! Zip that wine gently and take your time to enjoy the high cuisine, price shoul not be an issue in this place, enjoy. read more

Best salad ever. Worth every euro. It had mini root vegetables with their stems and leaves. Surprises of zucchini blossom, mint and dill. Plus a sweet but subtle honey mustard dressing. The octopus was tender, but it's cheese sauce a bit overpowering. However the steak with edible yucca coals was a delight, as was the risotto with foie gras and sea urchin. read more

Just had breakfast here but it was absolutely perfect. Very reasonably priced. Absolutely great friendly service too which is much more than I can say for a few other places in the barrio. Would love to come back for lunch and dinner. read more

Sad, but After we were waiting and calling for attention for a while, we left because nobody was there to get the order, everyone seemed very distracted with the other tables read more

Dishes were ok, there are better Tapas restaurants in the area. Everything tasted quite salty. Favorite was the salad .

First time in Barcelona and came across here by accident. Wait was long but well worth it, the food and service were fantastic. The gnocchi was to die for! Highly recommend. read more

We only had cava and Jamon iberico and left very happy!! Top quality Jamon (and we eat it often). Very ire fly service, with a nice quiet terrace. read more

I have to eat as much "tapas" in Barca as I can when I'm there. That means I try to eat pinxo at bars whenever I can, more "tapasy" places like Cal Pep (or whatever u like) when I can, and more modern takes on the tapas concept like are found here. This place was great. Often reviews mention the friendly waitstaff and we found that to be 100% true: follow their guidance and they will steer you to some great dishes. I am particularly happy with this place for one major reason: it's open on SUNDAY when 9 of 10 Barca restaurants are closed. So if life finds you here and hungry on Sunday (or any other day) you will be pleased to be here. read more

A surprise find when the line for La Paradeta was too long. Horseradish ice cream with beef carpaccio remained memorable, even after dining at arzak and extebarri. read more

We went here in the recommendation of our guide. It was a beautiful meal. The manager was awesome and chose our meal with wine pairings. Amazing dishes from start to finish! The tomato toasts, the sashimi tuna with wasabi cream and aioli, the beet salad with prawns, the blood sausage -to die for! We could not have been happier with this meal! Beautiful presentation as well. The staff was excellent! read more

We sat at the bar and enjoyed watching craft cocktails being made. We shared the smoked anchovies on artisanal bread with tomatoes, King prawns and asparagus with parmesan fondue (which had a light foam-like texture) and squid on a chorizo with vermicelli bed. The food, service and ambiance were excellent. read more

This place was recommended by a friend who lives in Barcelona. It's like a really upmarket tapas bar but with reasonable prices. My boyfriend and I ordered five dishes to share - amazing Foie Gras, tuna, prawn and asparagus fondu. The place has got a relaxed feel about it and an amazing wine list. If we are in Barcelona again, we'd definitely go back, the food is delicious. read more

I'm giving four stars instead of five simply because it was very expensive.... However, it was wonderful! Great service at the bar, incredible passion fruit mojito, and the mushroom croquetas (or croquetas de setas) are so incredible. They are little morsels of joy. read more

I visited this restaurant on my final day in Barcelona and after having our meal I stupidly forgot my handbag by the table and left it unattended for 5 minutes without realising I had forgotten it and when I realised quickly ran back to the restaurant, the waiter that had served me said he found it outside with my purse hanging out and that also they had to open and check my bag for my name and information before giving my bag back to me, I'm not sure now they could of forgotten 4 girls they where serving in the space of 10 minutes, it felt like they were giving me unnecessary reasons for searching the contexts of my bag. Being very uncomfortable with the situation i was put in I asked him "did you take my money from my purse "the waiter became very defensive and started speaking to me very rudely. I believe the waiters took £300 pounds from my purse I wanted to call the police at the time but I was running late for my flight and was keeping my friends waiting too. The restaurant is at a less busy and quiet location in Born Barcelona with not many footfall and with very attentive waiter and waitress so I find it impossible for my bag to be snatched or taken away by anyone apart from the waiters. I was just really glad that my passport was still in my bag and that I could get home. I understand I should have been careful with my bag but I feel like I was robbed twice that day once my the restaurant who are over priced for what they serve and secondly by the staff. read more
