Topped it all off with a premium margarita and needless to say, I am so full and ready to walk it all off.

Very flavorful and fast experience. Oxtail and mashed potatoes 10/10: the oxtail meet is so tender and flavorful. The mashed potatoes pair so well with the oxtail. Mushroom, steak, and egg yolk 9/10: soo flavorful and balance of veggies and protein. Amazing textures and flavors. Sparkling sangria: 8/10 I don't normally live the taste of alcohol but this was great. Not tooooo strong and if tastes pretty good if you mix it with the orange juice. Fresh orange juice: 10/10 so tangy and delicious. I can't recommend it enough. Patatas bravas: 9/10 solid no complaints! Dessert Tapas: - bread dessert (Tarija): 11/10 amazing dessert that is creamy, cameralized, and has a mochi like texture. This fried chewy dessert is not too sweet and such an affordable price. - coconut pudding 9/10 solid and refreshing if you like flan - bread, chocolate oil, salt 7/10: I live the complex flavors. The chocolate mousse was light and the bread to mousse ratio was perfect. It's a smaller dessert tho I wouldn't recommend it if ur sharing. Service: amazing! Staff I'm everywhere so it was very easy to order more food. Also we were sitting buy the area where they made dessert and they allowed me to record them making it!! Comfortable ambiance great for date night or casual meals!!!

This is the first restaurant I stopped at for some tapas during my trip to Barcelona and it spoiled…read moreme. I ordered a few things so let me talk about each one. Ham & Chicken Croquette: This was too good for how small it was. Just a nice potato croquette filled with some great quality ham and chicken. It was akin to a cordon bleu. White Asparagus with Baby Beans and Ham: This one floored me. Tender white asparagus in a vinegar based sauce with some tender ham and beans. I could have had two orders of this. Pulpo (Octopus) with Pork Belly: Not the best Pulpo of the trip but it sure set the standard. The octopus was unbelievably tender and you can just taste how fresh it is. The pork belly slice almost felt like an odd choice here to be honest. I didn't really know how to eat it with the pulpo since it overpowered it. The pork belly itself wasn't very impressive either so I kinda brushed it off at the end. It was a bit dry at some parts and just kept throwing me off. Gambas roja a la plancha: Prawns are EVERYWHERE here and they know how to cook them. These were tasty but not the freshest or most flavorful I had this trip either. Always eat the shell! Scallops a la plancha in a leek-apple based sauce with bits of crisped ham: This dish on its own makes this place a 5. The sauce is DIVINE. It's a little sweet and creamy to contrast the savory, perfectly cooked scallops swimming in it. The crunchy bits of ham give you a nice texture surprise with some much needed salt to balance it all out. These scallops practically melted in my mouth with each bite. This is a must try. Beef filet and foie gras montadito: Basically steak and foie gras on a toasty slice of bread. Honestly? This was the weakest dish here. The steak itself was just okay and I didn't really like the foie gras. It was like a very gamey butter. I'm sure it has its applications but it just felt like too much going on here. I'd pass on it. Chocolate in 3 textures: So for dessert I wanted chocolate so I went for the choco bomb. It was okay. I guess the three textures were the ganache, mousse, and wafers? It just reminded me of an elevated chocolate wafer bar like one from Loaker. I'd also pass on this dessert. My server was lovely and the atmosphere here is vibrant. Though there were few misses I would absolutely eat here again and get the things I loved but switch up the rest. That's part of the fun in tapas anyway.

When we passed by Rosa del Raval, I got so excited because not only did they have Mexican food, they also had a great looking salad on the menu! Two things that I was craving! This is a colorful restaurant that was packed with locals. They're famous for their mojitos and let me tell you, they're AMAZING!! They use fresh fruit puree to flavor them and strawberry was definitely my favorite. We split their nachos that had the most dreamy queso! I also had their shrimp cocktail and it was absolutely delicious. I literally felt like I should be staring at the ocean from a balcony in Mexico! For my entree, I ordered their chicken salad and it was MASSIVE! It had tons of grilled chicken, avocado, peppers, tomatoes, and a yummy balsamic dressing. It was everything that I needed and more. So fresh and so good. We would absolutely come back the next time we're visiting Barcelona, especially when it is time for a break from tapas! Thanks for satisfying my cravings!

Ah, the best fish tacos I've had in my eight years in Barcelona!…read more This place is small and kind of dive-y, just a few blocks away from Avinguda Paral.lel, and just off of the Ronda de Sant Pau. They do offer outdoor seating as well, so we didn't feel at all crowded. Our host/waiter was quick and offered explanations in fluent English. The music was mid-70's to mid-80's while we were there, so that offered a nice vibe. As for those fish tacos: made with cod fillets, very lightly battered and breaded, and grilled to a toasty golden color. Each was topped with a wedge of avocado, diced red onion, chipotle mayonnaise and garnished with fresh cilantro. Oh, and there was a fresh lime wedge for each of the three tacos in the order. Although they have another restaurant closer to the Arc de Triomf (which offers a much more expansive menu) this joint really has me wanting to come back for another round of those tacos - perhaps with a margarita this time.

Yea the Margarita's we got were a little on the light side, but the food was on point! Me and my girlfriend recently went here on a whim. We got here right when they opened so service was pretty fast. I enjoyed the decor all around too. One minute there is a mural of Frida Khalo and the next there randomly is Speedy Gonzalez. I love it. Wonderful Quesadillas! The chicken was grilled really well and the quesadillas themselves were perfectly cheesy. My favorite was the Flauta's though. They were crunchy, cheesy, saucey...they were a lot of things. They weren't overly spicy because you had a dollop of sour cream to cool ya down if needed. But I highly recommend this place.

The food was pretty good. Service was quick for the chilaquiles and eggs but by the time the enchiladas were served the rest of us were finished with our meals. The servers apologized and gave us mango tequila shots, which was quite nice (and the shots were delicious)! Chilaquiles (5/5 stars): The chicken had great texture and pull. The balance of the ingredients was good (the amount of cheese was just right) and the food was served warm. Would definitely order again. Eggs and beans (3/5): The eggs felt like normal scrambled eggs. Overall not as much variety in texture or flavor as I would've liked. Enchiladas (4/5): Savory and generous amount of food. The staff were flexible with dietary restrictions and were happy to substitute the meat option with eggplant which was much appreciated!
