While I was forced to go to withdraw cash, the waitress was keeping my friend hostage and even followed my friend outside while she was smoking.

Searching for an open Japanese restaurant in Barcelona around the holidays (late December) is…read moreapparently no easy task... I think everyone goes on vacation! We breathed a huge sigh of relief when found that Tempura-Ya was open. Nice mid-range restaurant, casual and decent prices while still having a slightly upscale vibe. We were welcomed in by the staff with a cheerful "irraishaimase" (your standard greeting upon entering most legit Japanese restaurants). I got excited when I realized our server spoke Spanish, Japanese, AND English... the 3 languages I can claim to speak (in varying capacities depending on which one :P). Overall, I'd say the food was solid. Not the best Japanese food I've ever had in my life and no where near the worst. There's a lot of tempura on the menu of course, but they also have sushi and a lot of other typical Japanese items. Tried were the gyoza- tasty and good consistency; tempura udon- noodles good and broth savory and comforting, but the tempura does not come separate and got soggy real fast in the soup; sukiyaki udon- my partner said it hit the spot; tekka maki (basic tuna sushi roll)- clean and simple; and green tea cheesecake- DELICIOSO! If you're a fan of Japanese food and in the area, I'd definitely recommend this place. If I lived in the area, I would probably be a regular!
