The sign outside promised a free tapas with each drink. We got la bombas (potato and beef croquet's which are very popular in Barcelona) and gazpacho soup. Both were delicious. The bombas were huge - much larger than we've had elsewhere - with less of the crispy deep fry and more filling. Prices were decent and the waitress was friendly so no complaints. I'd eat here again.

We dined here twice during our two trips to Barcelona in September 2019. Both times, we thoroughly enjoyed our experience. Very casual, very local place. We were the only non-locals there each time. They have a couple of English-language versions of the menu, but the staff struggles a bit with English, which personally I love when I'm in another country. The croquettes are super fresh and housemade. All of them are good but the mushroom one is amazing. The scrambled egg dish with fries (see pic) is a highlight. Comfort-food at it's best. Haven't had anything here that were didn't like, so eat around the menu and enjoy!

My wife and I were in Barcelona on vacation and we had just toured the Guell Park, a must see. We…read morehiked to the top of the park and right outside was Las Delicias. We sat down and I ordered a big beer. It hit the spot. I ordered the fried pig ears and pork cheeks from the vast menu. There were all sorts of cool things you could order. My food came out pretty quick. I had fried pig ears at the Michael Symon restaurant in Cleveland and they were fantastic. These ones were cut up in cubes and full of crispy, yet chewy deliciousness. Nice and salty as well. The pig cheeks were a little to fatty and chewy for me. I only ate about a third of them. I ordered another beer, which took awhile to get, because our server pretty much didn't check on us after we first sat down. I had to flag someone down to get another beer. Not a big issue, but it was a little frustrating. Overall, a great bar to have a beer and get the pig ears. They were really good! They had outdoor seating as well, and on a sunny day, it looked really nice. They were all full though when we looked to sit down.

After a morning exploring the famous Park Güell, we were hungry for some traditional Spanish tapas,…read moreand Restaurante Delicias was only a short walk away from the park! At around 1pm on a Sunday afternoon, we were told that the restaurant was full (both inside and outside), so we waited for around 30 minutes for a table before getting seated outside. Let me preface this review by saying that we had an unsavory experience with some members of the waitstaff, so that has been reflected in the amount of stars that I have allocated. Upon getting seated, I heard one server say to another in Catalan: "you go wait on the Chinese people." I don't think they knew that I understood a bit of Catalan as well as Spanish, so both servers were a bit shocked when I started speaking Spanish upon getting seated! While I'll assume the server didn't mean anything with bad intent, it still didn't leave the best taste in my mouth (especially since we aren't even Chinese). Also, after going inside the restaurant to use the restroom, I saw that there were plenty of tables inside - in fact, almost half the tables were completely empty, despite being told that both inside and outside were completely full! I'm sure the restaurant had its reasons for telling us this, but it was definitely confusing. But other than that, the food at Restaurante Delicias was outstanding. We started with the Pulpitos a la Plancha (Grilled Baby Octopus, €7,50). For the price, we were given a large portion of octopus, and they were cooked perfectly, with just the right amount of bite and tenderness, combined with a pesto-like sauce! The oil-based sauce made the dish just rich enough without sacrificing the fresh flavor of the seafood. We also ordered a large portion of the Mejillones al Vapor (Steamed Mussels, €8,50). Again, this was a large portion of seafood for the price, although this wasn't as impressive as the octopus. We felt as though the mussels were a tad on the overcooked side, with a bit too much chewiness/rubberiness for our liking, though they were well-seasoned! Next, we ordered a large portion of Pan con Tomate (Catalan Tomato Bread, €4,50). A huge portion yet again - noticing a pattern? Though this seems like a simple dish, it is surprisingly addictive. The crusty white bread combined with the rich oil and slightly acidic sweetness of the tomato comes together to form a perfect combination of textures and flavors. Their Gazpacho (Andalusian Tomato Soup served cold, €6,50) was also a pleasant surprise - it was perfectly refreshing on a sweltering summer day, with a great amount of acidity contrasting with creaminess, and it is served with croutons and crispy pieces of ham, which add a nice textural contrast to the smooth soup! Pro tip: you can't go wrong dipping the Pan con Tomate in as well (tomato bread with tomato soup - absolutely!). Lastly, we ordered the Arroz Negro (Black Rice, €9,25), which came with a mound of jet black rice (the color comes from squid ink) topped with a generous amount of seafood, including prawns, calamari, and mussels. While the seafood tasted fresh and was cooked nicely, the rice was the star of the dish - it had soaked up all the flavors of the seafood, and had the perfect al dente texture. This was surprisingly our favorite dish! Overall, we really enjoyed our meal at Restaurante Delicias - the food was absolutely delicious, the prices are even better, and we couldn't have asked for a more convenient location near Park Güell. Though we didn't have a great experience with the servers (2 stars), the food was so good (5 stars) that I'll give this place a solid 4 stars!

Favorite was probably the scallops, which were served on the half shell; so sweet and flavorful. Cigales, which are kind of like mini langostines, were great, and this is of course something we don't see in New York much. Outstanding octopus. A little pricey, but big portions and delicious. Cheapest pan con tomate I saw, so highly recommend adding this onto your order. Likewise, went for house white wine on both visits and was quite happy. Ate outside one night which was nice. Inside was also comfortable. Standard spanish decor, not fancy, which was totally fine. Service was nice even if stretched a little thin at times.

Since I was dining alone, I only had the seafood paella. Typically places would recommend 2 ppl to share a paella, but this is very manageable alone. I'm no paella connoisseur, but I thought it was cooked really well. At first I thought it would be incredibly salty because of all the seafood, but it was just right. The rice was adequately cooked in the sauce and not too mushy. The mussels, shrimp, and crawfish were perfect too.

Casa Pepe is located a short metro ride (Red Line) from downtown Barcelona in Santa Coloma (Santa Coloma stop in the direction of Fondo).

The menu is extensive and I wish I was hungrier. Pepe himself works everyday and greets you at the door. Come early (1:00) to beat the lunch rush. A must try!!!
