    175g Aberdeen, sautéed bimi (broccoli), and mashed potatoes for me with the peppers in the middle
    Ciera O.

    Very very good! Was pleasantly surprised by this steakhouse in the middle of Barcelona, but so glad I made it here! I had read lots of of reviews about the staff being very friendly and walking you through the menu to explain everything and honestly that was not the case for me and my partner. We sat down and it took the waiter about 10 minutes to even come over to us. They didn't explain the menu at all to us but just looked at us, expecting us to figure it out. Luckily it wasn't too hard since I had prepared beforehand and read the reviews enough to understand what to do. I got 175g of the Aberdeen cooked medium, with the sautéed bimi (broccolini for anyone like myself who had no idea what bimi was) and creamy mashed potatoes. The food was delicious! The mashed potatoes were honestly like liquid butter in the best way possible. And the bimi was excellent as well. The steak was cooked perfectly medium and flavorful. My partner had 250g of a steak I unfortunately can't remember the type cooked medium. Theirs was cooked a little more medium-rare, possibly because it was a larger portion, the temp was off a bit? We also tried the padròn peppers which were fantastic. I was so full but if not, I would have had the entire helping of peppers myself. If you enjoy steak, or even just simply want to mix up your food experiences from the typical Tapas and seafood while in Barcelona, this place is a must-visit!

    The service was quick and accurate with our order. As far as the food goes everything we had was worth it. Tons of flavor in every dish. Favorite was for sure the roast beef dish with peppers. With the spicy sandwich in a close 2nd. Sangrias were STRONG, which is what we like, right!? Let the ice melt a bit if you want it to not have such a bite. The back terrace is much more enjoyable than the bar so we chose to sit in the back. Even on a hot day it was pleasant with the shade blinds and fans they have.

    The staff, the service, the ambiance, the sangria, & the food! All excellent!!! Their sangria & cava sangria have been the best blended I've tried so far in Barcelona. My husband tried the Asturiana de Los Valles, Aberdeen, & Frisian cuts of steak & they were all delicious!

    Dined two days at the Alexandra Hotel's Solomillo - had a great attentive bartender. Food was excellent. I'll go back tonight!

    The Marque's De Murrieta was excellent. I highly recommend for the wine pairing if you are ordering and if it is available. We had the Rubia Gallega, smallest portion. Very tender, very lean. A rate combination. Then the seasonal tomato with burrata and basil. Very traditional and tasteful. The plate of cured meats and three cheeses left an impression. As a combination, more than enough to satisfy two. As a whole, the different flavors provided a lot of playfulness and fun to try.

    We were staying at the hotel for a few days and wanted a great meal for our last night. While restaurant was closed on Monday, they had an abbreviated menu to order off of. We sat outside and enjoyed a wonderful meal, with excellent service. We both had the beef tenderloin, salad and fries. A simple but absolutely wonderful meal. The steak was cooked to perfection and so tender you really did not need a knife. Salad was tossed in an oil/vinegar dressing, the fries were on point!

    Make no mis-steak, Solomillo is a meat lover's paradise! The vibes of the place are upscale but not stuffy. The star of the menu is definitely meat but presented in an interesting fashion. Basically, the menu features five different cow breeds from different regions, each with different types of upbringing and diet. This results in distinctive flavor profiles. Your choice is simple, just select which meats you want to try and how many grams you want to eat. Seems overwhelming? The servers will guide you through the process, outlining the differences between each breed and the recommended amount to order. I suggest sharing a few different types to sample the different flavors. Once the meat is selected, time to move to garnishes. OMG, the garnishes were amazing!!! Each one of them harmonized the beef exceptionally well (note there are hardly any pics of the garnishes. They were gone before I realize it!) special props to the tomato salad, the piquillo peppers, the creamed spinach, the foie and the broccolini.

    Decided to sit at the bar and wait for a friend of mine while at the Hilton Alexandria. Great beer and also had a sample of aged pork and a few sirloin samples as well. It was great and the bartender was pretty cool and knowledgeable of where to go and places to check out while I was here.

    Fans of sirloin steak need to rush to Solomillo, the Alexandria Hotel's newest restaurant in Barcelona. As its name suggests, the primary focus of the menu is spectacular cuts of sirloins, so much so that it's the only main they serve. That doesn't mean the menu is boring by any means, and the different weights of the meat are individual for each customer's preference. I love steak, and was happy to meet my friend for lunch on Saturday at Solomillo. We dined on the beautiful terrace, and the city provided the perfect backdrop as we bordered Mallorca Street. The restaurant design is modern yet relaxed, and keeps with the style of the hotel and all the furniture is Spanish-made. We decided to try crystal bread with tomato and a plate of cured meat to start our meal. The meat was salty and delicious, and a great assortment to sample. The bread was fresh and delicious, and paired nicely with the tomato. I chose 500 gr of Rubia Gallega for my main, while my friend opted for 175 grams of Nebraska Black Angus. The steaks were cooked to perfection and both were juicy and tender. My steak melted in my mouth like butter. We shared a variety of sides, including grilled artichokes, spice watercress, radish and radish sauce, and Basque Country style lettuce and onion salad. They all offered a tangy bite that paired with the tender meat well. The subtle heat of the radish and the earthy flavor of the watercress and artichokes complimented excellently. For dessert, I always tend toward chocolate, and in this case I loved the flourless chocolate cake. It was moist and rich. My friend indulged in cheesecake with strawberry sauce that was beautifully presented. Solomillo is a sirloin lover's dream come true, but with great service, beautiful designs, and delicious sides, it's truly a restaurant that has it all.

    Fancy place offering steak. This place needed more variety in their menu. Atmosphere was stuffy. Food aways okay, but not worth the price.

This was recommended by friends awhile back, I remembered the modern ambiance, amazing Tapas, friendly service and the place was as busy then until now. For this big restaurant caliber, it's pretty crowded yet they do a good job with a fast turnaround. We did the early Dinner and by the time we got out there was already a long line for late Diners. The fact that even after a decade, it's rare that I go back to the same spot let alone they're still around after all these years. You already know that tells a lot and I feel bad for those who didn't have the same great experience, hope they give it another shot. See y'all soon! Salut, Vermouth!

    Walking down the street on Rambla and a "Huge Line" has gathered outside Cerveseria Catalana…read more Something special must be happening here to have this big of a crowd waiting. My son had been here last year and thought, it was a solid. We put our name in, went to a nearby park bench to wait and watch people for 50 minutes. The servers outside are grumpy as to many people are crowding the sidewalk and impeding his service. Finally, our name was called, were seated at the bar, and watched a chef make the magic dishes. The menu is huge and I can't help but watch the delicious dishes flying by us. So little time and yet so many great choices, this won't be easy. We began with the beef tenderloin montadito foie gras. It was presented as a open face sandwich on a bagette. We split it as it had a huge piece of foie gras. The tenderloin was tough and the tapas tasted like indivdual components, not a blended or refined profile. The grilled razor clams were nicely cooked, slightly gritty and needed to be washed more thoroughly. The Spanish omelet wedge was spiritual, dish of the night award. The onion made the dish! The sliced fried artichoke was finely shaved, and again lacked a enjoyable flavor that I would order again. The chips with fried eggs and Jabugo ham was different, tasty and a concept I would not of thought about. Delicious! Casveseria Catalanahe was packed and stacked for a reason. A high vibe and energy even in the face of a revolt at the check in desk from hungry dinners. I came say without hesitation, we will give them a second try. The staff was friendly, engaging, warm and a good sense of humor, nothing but smiles. I can't wait for our next trip to Cerveseria Catalana and let them tell me what to order. Good luck and see you sooner than later.

The highlights for us were the Bacalao -- so tender and full of flavor -- and honestly the best octopus I've ever had in my life. We also loved the soft steak with duck liver served on a slice of French baguette, the shrimp skewers, patatas, and the Spanish ham with tomato toasts. Every dish was unforgettable. On top of the incredible food, the restaurant itself has such an elegant atmosphere with beautiful décor that made the whole dining experience even more special.

While all of the food was great, for me the codfish was hands-down the star of the show and probably one of the best dishes that I ate on the trip. The flavor of the sauce combined with the texture of the fish actually blew me away, and I can see why my server highly recommended this to me. If you just get one things when coming here, definitely make sure not to miss this dish. Highly recommend checking this place out for Spanish tapas, they represent the cuisine well!

The service was excellent, our server spoke English and knew so much about American pop culture. He even sang NSYNC songs to us while serving us dishes. As for the food let's get into it: - Lobster Croquettes (8/10) We've had a lot of croquettes this trip, but these were on another level, get one per person. - Paella (7.5/10) Different style of paella from other places we went. It was almost like a paella curry, which was still rich and delicious. - Squid Sandwich (10/10) This is hands down the best appetizer I've ever had. The squid was packed with flavor and the mayo sauce they used paired perfectly. Order one per person, and be prepared to order another to go. - Garlic Shrimp (8/10) Solid entree paired with sourdough bread. Dip that bread into the sauce and you'll be satisfied. - Aged Beef Steak w/ Foie Gras (9/10) This might be one of the best steak dishes I've had traveling abroad. It was cooked perfectly, and came with a potato crust on the bottom and Foie Gras on top. Definitely a must order.
