    Guac and Pico
    John B.

    Great spot to go to if you're looking for a quick meal. Tacos were just ok here though. Would suggest going elsewhere for tacos but my friends and I were looking for a fast dinner which this sufficient for.

    Amazing late night tacos. Great spot to get your taco fix with a wide variety of salsas to add (5 of them and my favorite was the spicy to give it a great kick). The guacamole they give is gigantic! They definitely don't skimp on the ingredients.

    Strawberry margarita, so good!

    This is a nice little gem. Delicious tacos and really good margaritas! The prices are great.

    Nice little taco shop in Barcelona. We had luckily missed the line extending out the door. The Safari taco was my favorite by far. I like the fact that all the hot sauces are labeled 1-5 in terms of heat, you're not having to guess. If you're into tacos check it out.

    Gringa and Chihuahua

    Best tacos in SPAIN!! AND THE WORLD probably BETTER THAN MEXICO. I've never had authentic tacos from Mexico so that's a reach but these babies are on another level. Order at least 3 because they're small, but they're pretty cheap. About 1.96-2.50€ for one. Definitely try the gringa - especially if you're from the states

    We ate here 2 times as tourists wanting some more familiar food!! We are from the US and this dinner tasted like what we'd get at a taco place back home, and possibly better! Very good flavors to choose from and very nice worked.

    Amazing tacos!! Ordered 4 off the menu and was super pleased with all of them. Favorites were Pastor- the pork with pineapple. SOO GOOD. And the safari- grilled chicken with bell pepper and sweet onion. They have a variety of hot sauces and really good prices. I wish this wasn't my last evening in Spain so that I could come back again and try the other items on the menu.

    For 12€ this is a full meal

    Staff: two employees there that were friendly and spoke English Ambiance: nicely designed interior that is inviting and a bit touristy Location: near the Arc de Triomphe so easy to get to What to try: Safari and Pirata Food: Simple, tasty tacos. Great for a quick bite. Price: a few euro per. get guacamole!

    strawberry margarita, sinaloa taco and two tinga tacos

    Being Mexican I felt the need to see how the tacos were in Spain and OOOOOOF, these were bomb and only a small walk from our hotel. Definitely recommend. Delicioso!! Necesito regresar antes de que regrese a los EE.UU.

    The five salsas they serve!

    Amazing service and even better tacos! If you are in Barcelona and want something that will fill your Mexican food crave come here!

    This location never has tinga. What taco places runs out of chicken during the week and opens their shop without it?!

    It's been a decade since I came here for my first Tapas in BCN. This is where I realized there was…read morea lot of my peeps that works there and it's nice to feel at home, lol. 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.
