Had lunch here with friends while in town, another unique restaurant inside the old walls of…read moreTarraco. A small eatery, with a few tables and chairs inside as well as out, with a heavy wood open beam ceiling and stone wall interior. We were greeted walking in and told to take a seat. We grabbed a table by the interior wall. Our servers were both professional, not overly friendly or fast but they did make sure we had what we needed. Seafood, and local produce are whats on the menu here. A concise menu with a focus on local and sustainable cuisine. Crispy local fish appetizer is where we started, small fish of various sizes lightly battered and fried crisp with head on. Crunchy little treats, like eating chips but little fishes. Very good and a nice start. Salad of mixed greens with smoked cod fish was our next tapa, a nice mixture of greens with a light dressing of evoo and tender chunks of smoked cod. I thoroughly enjoyed this dish. It was light, fresh and quite tasty. Enough to share as well. Creamy rice with clams, squid and a savory red pepper sauce, was our final entree. A large cast iron pot of local seafood with tender rice, a generous portion and was more than enough between the three of us. We could not finish it all. A small eatery, up inside the walls of old Tarraco. With good local cuisine, and definitely worth the effort to find. 4 Stars a solid meal 01225

We were the only two people in the entire place (and what felt like the whole town) from 6pm until we finished past 830! Wonderful wine and nice slow dining.

We ordered a pizza margarita for 9 €, a summer salad for 8 €, a tinto verano for 3 €, squids for 12 € and a fish for 16€. All tasty and good. Each table inside has a button to call the waiter and it worked! With no costs we got patatas brava and at the end tiramisu for free! Cool we come back.

This was my go to seafood spot while staying in nearby Garraf. The guys who work at this place are…read moresuper friendly, the food comes fast, they have ample seating both inside and out. The food is great and you can select your fish and prawns prior to purchase. Croquettes were great, scallops, lobsters, all fresh and good. After dinner or before walk on the beach. It's a good vibe.

Came here on a Sunday - fair warning: long lines especially for lunch. We came around 4pm and…read moredidn't have to wait too long and since we opted for the next available seating, we got to sit in the sun for 1.5 hours with no umbrella or shade. So bring your sunscreen. Service: kind of slow. But I get it-they're busy. What I don't get is all the trash on the floor. Clearly visible yet every staff member just walks by and doesn't pick up napkins that flew away, etc. Food: 1. Croquette tapas - crispy outside, the seafood filling inside was just alright 2. Patatas with garlic aioli - heaven!! 3. Calamari fried in batter - disappointed because the batter was SOGGY when it arrived to the table 4. Tallarinas - tasty but sandy when I got to the bottom of the plate Main dish: Arroz Marinero (18.95€/per person) WAY too expensive. Although it was good, it wasn't mind blowing and certainly not worth the price. Large selection of desserts

This restaurant was literally right next to our stay in Barcelona--skipping it felt like a crime,…read moregiven the rave reviews. So, on a rainy afternoon, we gave it a shot. We arrived just after lunch opening and were the first customers. The guy at the counter was... efficient. He simply told us to pick what we wanted, tossed it in a bin, and that was that. No explanation of pricing or preparation methods. When we asked how they'd cook it, he casually offered "fried or grilled." Obviously, we chose grilled--why fry fresh seafood? We picked two giant prawns, two octopus tentacles, and two fish (since hubby can't have shellfish). He asked if we wanted salad or soup--reviews hyped the soup, so we went with that. Then he handed us a receipt, told us we were order #3, and sent us to the bar. At the bar, we ordered two sangrias and a water. The bartender asked if we wanted bread and sauce. Sure, why not? We assumed they were included. Surprise! The tiny baguettes cost €0.50 each, and the mystery "house sauce" (a questionable mix of thousand island and horseradish) was an extra €1. We only realized the charge when we saw the total: €73. Oh well, too late now. Then came the food pickup experience--chaotic, to say the least. The server practically barked at us to bring our receipt, aggressively crossed off items, and handed over soups and octopus, crammed onto a greasy tray. No effort at plating, just food haphazardly dumped onto plates. The second round--grilled fish and prawns--was more of the same. Now, the verdict: Soup (5/5) - Delicious and reasonably priced at €6. Would order again. Bread & Sauce (0/5) - Not free, not worth it. Hard pass. Octopus (€31.80 for two tentacles, 1/5) - Overpriced, greasy, and drowning in molten salt. Basically, eating a sodium bomb. Grilled Fish (€10.50 & €8.50, 3/5) - Decent, but unnecessarily oily. Grilled Prawns (€5.59, 0/5) - Mushy, not fresh, and borderline inedible. Final thoughts? Not worth it. With so many incredible food spots in Barcelona, why waste your meal quota here? If you want quality seafood, go to Cervecería Catalana--we spent €5 more, but a meal a thousand times better. Spend wisely and eat like a king.

[Food] - Oysters: Fresh and good with lemon…read more - Anchovies: Not our favorite as it was very fishy and oily tasting despite adding lemon. I've had fried anchovies before but this was too heavy for us - Octopus: This was a bit oily but but not as much as the anchovies. Potatoes were nice and soft and absorbed all the sauces. - Small Clams: My favorite dish out of all we've ordered. Although the clams were small, the sauce it was cooked in was delicious! [Service] - Line up, order what you want, some seafood have various cook styles so they will ask you which you'd prefer, pay, find a table, and pick up at the pick up window once your buzzer goes off. [Ambiance] - Mainly indoor seating with 2 tables outdoors [Overall] - Would come back again as I love this kind of seafood eateries! Will definitely try other dishes next time as well
