They seems to have everything from sea food to italian and grill items. Service is fast and waiters are really friendly. Outside sitting is much better than inside. This place serves halal food. read more

I ate here on my first night in Barcelona last week. The food was not great and the waitress had the nerve to ask my boyfriend to add a tip. In Barcelona, you do NOT need to tip unless you want to, but to be asked directly to tip was so rude. Instead of saying anything, I let my boyfriend drop a big tip and we walked out. I had the Fideu, which is paella made with noodles instead of rice. It was soggy and too salty. I can't even remember what my boyfriend ordered because this place did NOT impress me. If you do go, don't let the waitress pressure you into tipping her and tell her SHE IS RUDE to ask. read more

TOURIST TRAP. Unfortunately, we were desperate enough to bite, as this restaurant was of the few open on the Day of the Dead. Overpriced, uninspiring dishes were bland and seafood was not fresh. On the plus side, their menu has a lot of variety. read more

Yum! After passing by a bunch of sparely populated restaurants late in the evening while walking around Barceloneta we saw this place. Menus posted outside and plenty of people inside. Plenty of stuff on the menu but we got the fixed menu and were very happy we did. It wasn't the best food of my life but we were happy. The service was fast and attentive. It was a cool evening out but there were plenty of heat lamps so it was still quite nice outside. They give you a not-so-secret champagne toast at the end which was a very nice touch. As typical in Spain, we got to relax and hang out, slowly finishing off our bottle of wine, then ask for the check. You better like seafood if you come here! read more

Yum! My sister and I were headed to the beach for the day and decided to stop here for lunch. We got calamari romano and salad to start and then shared this beef dish. The calamari rings were huge! And they were amazing. The breading was light and crisp and the squid itself was so tender and amazing. We chose this place after walking up and down the strip of restaurants and seeing that this place was one of the cheaper places. Service was relatively fast and the staff seemed pretty friendly. read more

Many standard Barcelona favorites here, like several kinds of paella, but the real treat is a vast variety of seafood, including a grilled seafood plate for two, which is stunning. We counted more than a dozen varieties of seafood including lobster, prawns, mussels, clams (including razor clams) and more. It was a formal service, which was done extremely well. We had a some wines and I'm told the Sangria is spectacular. Food arrived quickly, but they weren't that busy. Our party of four were stuffed. Prices are a bit high, but the restaurant is unlikely to disappoint those accustomed to high service and really good food. How could the rating have been higher? More low-cal/carb desserts, and a wider wine list, perhaps-- and perhaps a wider selection. Tough to get a 5star out of me, however. read more

A friend and I randomly came across this place at the beginning of our stay in Barcelona. We have been here for a month now, and it is still one of the best meals I have had during that time. We got a pitcher of sangria to share which was also one of the best that I've had. We sat outside during sunset which was beautiful, and the waiters were very nice. The pastas we ordered were incredible! Would recommend to anyone visiting the Barceloneta area. read more

Restaurant Port-Vell - Spaghetti with clams - Seafood Near Me - Barcelona, B

After searching up and down Passeig de Joan de Borbo Conte de Barcelona for a reasonably priced restauarant, we finally did what we were looking for. Let me just start off by saying that as a tourist eager to try local cuisine, Port Vell served us one of the best tasting, best value seafood paella we've had in Barcelona. They have a popular 16.50 euro set meal that includes a generous portion of fresh salad, 0.5 L of sangria, and seafood/vegetarian paella. When shared with 3 people, they combined the portions to give us a huge pan of paella and pitcher of sangria. Just when we thought the value couldn't get any better, they offered us another free 0.5 L of sangria (but actually gave us 1 L) and a glass of complimentary champagne at the end of our meal. Service was great and friendly as well. I definitely recommend this place to local tourists as you won't be disappointed! read more

Restaurant Port-Vell - Amazing seafood paella - Seafood Near Me - Barcelona, B

While walking by the restaurant the owner came out and talked to us, he was so friendly and talkative we couldn't say no to him even tho we had just ate dinner some where else. We decided to just get some appetizers and drinks, best choice. Their sangria is phenomenal (I'm not even a wine drinker) we tried their jamón ibérico and some calamaris. I did noticed their sea paella on the menu but being that we had just ate dinner decided not to order. After our appetizers and liter of sangria we left, however I was curious on trying out the paella so on our last in Barcelona(we were only there for 3 nights) we decided to stop by BEST CHOICE EVERRRRRRR I've never had such a good paella before! Let me not forget to mention their staff who are beyond friendly and helpful with everything. Their prices are super reasonable and totally worth it. Definitely recommend this place to anyone look for some good sea food and sangria l. read more

Ugh, what a mess. Any place that advertises "paella and sangria 15€", you have to be wary of. But we were tired and desperate, and knew that tourist trap food doesnt plan to kill you. So I say it's a mess because there is some good stuff here, the table next to us had the most amazing seafood platter, our food was decent and I have to believe that the cooks knew what they were doing. But that was all lost on a combination of: garish decor, the lime green upstairs was sobering; football on the tv, it's strange to witness a sea of faces staring at the screen while they ignore what's on their plates; novelty drinks, in unwieldy glasses; and an 'entertaining' waiter who was running a fine line between between colorful, and just being a racist, sexist, homophobic pig. No, I take that back, he was a racist, sexist, homophobic pig Oh, and the bill took forever, even for catalan standards Probably good food, minus several stars for the ambience read more

Located on a long street of similar sidewalk cafes we choose this one because it was full of happy looking customers, bright and attractive and did not have a menu wielding barker out front. For dinner we chose the daily special seafood paella with salad and pitcher of sangria. All parts of the meal was fresh, delicious and very affordable . Service was also very good. Street musicians entertained from the doorway. We were very satisfied. read more

My friends and I were walking by the restaurant and decided to take a look at the menu. The host at the door was an old man who started talking to us. "This restaurant has the best Spanish food in the city", he said. My friends and I decided to continue walking and take a look at more menus, so we thanked the man and began to leave. He said "You deserve to eat your Pakistani food anyway". I don't know if he was insulting us because we look middle eastern? Or trying to say that Pakistani food is low quality? Or both? Either way, it was an extremely racist comment I'm a Canadian/Iranian and I love Pakistani food. For sure, I'd never eat at this restaurant and I don't recommend it to anyone. Unless you don't mind being served by a racist man who can't handle rejection. I'm not sure how he owns a business with that attitude. If I could give 0 stars, I would. read more

Don't let 3.5 starts fool you. This is the best food that I have so far in Spain. I stay here in Spain for 3 weeks and no where can match this restaurant in term of customer service and quality of food. The food is great, fresh, and the service is awesome. The owner greats and thanks us when we walk in the door. He offered us the most comfortable table. The waiters (yes multiple of them) was so friendly. We used to order a lot and they stop us and said "Just order that and see how you feel. You can always order more". We enjoy every single dish, and specially Sangria! When we finished our dinner, they cleaned up our table and brought out champagne "on the house" along with dessert menu. The must need to visit restaurant along the water if you in Barcelona. You can't go wrong! read more

Restaurant Port-Vell - Front entrance - Seafood Near Me - Barcelona, B

One of our must-do things when in Barcelona is dinner on the Passeig Joan de Borbo and Port-Vell was our latest choice. (Note the restaurants near the Passeig can be super prices so be careful). The restaurants on this street are fairly priced and offer a nice selection of seafood and paella at very reasonable prices, and Port-Vell is no exception. Food allergy friendly. The combo for 18 euros of a paella, salad, and 1/2 pitcher of Sangria is more than fair and quite nice. Love the open-air atmosphere and the Paella Negra (paella with squid ink). If you ship is in the nearby port I would recommend visiting Port-Vell or one of the nearby restaurants on the Passeig Joan de Borbo. read more

BEWARE. This restaurant was not an enjoyable experience. We ended up here unfortunately because we really wanted to eat dinner. The food ended up being super mediocre. It was definitely not fresh and it tasted like it had been microwave. Don't go here, there are much better restaurants are down by the beach. read more

price wise great we had a seafood platter for 2, a bottle of white wine and med salad for €39.99 the sea food had lobster, languotine, prawns, clams, mussels, razor clams, cuttlefish & sea snails (the last 2 didnt appeal to me as much) we had a bottle of white (standard cheap plonk) and patatas bravas (like roast potatos with ketchup and mayo) and some fairly lame tomato bread - overall my partner got her seafood fix - we got free cava @ the end which was nice - as i'm not a major fan of seafood (altho it was tasty) i'd give this 2 stars for food but they're getting 3 stars for the attentive waitress read more

Restaurant Port-Vell - free cava "surprise" @ the end of our meal - Seafood Near Me - Barcelona, B

Very rude waiter! I was about to ask the waiter what the different types of Mojitos where, right before he interrupted me to insult me that I needed to learn spanish or google the words in the menu, because he "didnt have the time to be a translator". Funny thing is that I was already ready to order the food and was wondering what the three types of Mojito were.. Anyways very dissapointed. Would not eat here again or recommend anyone else to do so either! read more

We arrived early by Barcelona standards at 7 so the place was quiet. Our waiter was friendly and attentive. We all ordered the house menu with 3 courses for 18 euro plus wine which was a good deal. Starters of mussels and fish soup was excellent. We all got the seafood paella which was average. Free cava was a nice touch. read more

I couldn't give 0 stars. I had a wonderful stay in BCN. We enjoyed every meal intil my last one. I left with a bitter taste in my mouth. We were seated in a tiny patio table for 2 top. We ordered mista salad for 9.75. Romaine lettuce tasteless with canned corn canned black olives and canned tuna. It was disgusting and overprice. We barely touched it but server didn't care. Anchovies had some sort of cayenne pepper on top Taste was ruined as a result. Shrimp were swimming in oil, and mussels and paella were good. As we were waiting for our paella server was clearing seafood platter from a nearby table and she spilled juice all over my shirt and my wife's jacket. No apology.. I don't blame server, but I blame owners for setting up too many tables close to each other. Manager took my shirt and my wife's to the kitchen and tried to wash it by hand. Both my shirt and my wife's jacket were ruined but I couldn't say anything because I'm catching up my flight tomorrow am Poor ownership/ mgr.. No apologies not even concerned about our dining experience. Taking their tourists for granted read more
