    Fast and helpful service. It is not too loud and they seated us quickly. Tapas always seem like you can eat a ton of them but take it slow. Enjoy. We had the Paella with lobster is fantastic. Loved the ham, cheese and date "sandwich". The fried cheese and jam was delicious and the desserts were worthy it all. Order the bread pudding it is like a cream brûlée in a soft crust. the gelato casota is not too sweet and extremely creamy. Melt in your mouth!

    Maybe the best place we went Madrid for tapas. Everything was high quality and delicious. Service was good. The place we heard could get crowded but we went about 6:00p and were seated right away. Plenty of tables then. Nice, clean restaurant right on the Gran Via. I thought prices were reasonable too. Lots to try here.

    This will be a very disappointing place for any visitor who speaks/understands Spanish...not only is it just another tourist trap, but it's also run by very rude people. Both times we came here, it was basically because it's one of the only options in the area still open after 11/11:30pm. When we first flew into Barcelona, we didn't make it to the hotel until the evening, and ended up napping for a little while before going out for some food. As a result, we ended up at Vinitus just before 12am (they close around 1am). This first time, they seated us at a table just outside the main entrance, as they were closing down the outdoor patio space for the night. The food was (ok), but sufficed for the evening, since we were mostly just hungry and tired. Alright, now...let's cut to the second visit. About a week later, we returned to Barcelona by train after visiting a few other parts of Spain. Similarly to the previous time, it was late in the evening, so we ended up going to Vinitus - half out of familiarity, half because it's one of the only options open later at night. This time, we were seated within the indoor dining space, so we could hear all of the staff talking. Throughout the evening, they kept glancing over at us, making faces, and talking amongst themselves. Clearly, they didn't realize that we, as American tourists, could understand and speak Spanish....as they were quite obviously talking a WHOLEEE lot of gossip. We overheard them saying something about us not tipping when we came 'last Monday'.....even though tipping is not part of the culture in Spain and we literally have never been asked ANYWHERE in Spain to tip or given any indication that it is expected in any way. They also gossiped about our food and drink choices. We paid our bill and I went downstairs for the restroom...apparently my partner had made it clear to them that we could understand everything they had been saying while I was gone, as they were attempting to be extremely friendly to me as I exited....something they had never bothered to do in any way AT ALL previously. Anyways...I don't think it'd be surprising for me to say that they've left a bad taste in the mouths of two customers who otherwise might have returned on future visits to Barcelona.... ...but now we most certainly will not, and will also be advising friends and family who visit Spain not to patron this establishment either.

    Good tapas. Good service. Good location, next to Casa Batllo, Paseeig de Gracia. Highly recommended by our friends who lives in Barcelona. We will come back again if in Barcelona.

    The most amazing tasting tapas, super intimate setting, and AMAZING service! No reservations and a pretty long, but a quick wait.

    It pays to make extra few steps away from common tourist roads. Great food and very friendly service. All tapas and wine were amazing. We were glad to follow yelp recommendations and try this place out.

    So good Easy going restaurant here. They got their act together for a big production of a restaurant. The food is fresh and I don't think we can get this quality back in the states. Wiill go back

    Grilled Padrino Peppers. Very mild and seasoned with sea salt.

    Very nice tapas bar! Reasonably priced and excellent service. Indoor and outdoor seating. It does get busy. There was a wait on. Tuesday evening at 7. Bar seating was available. Would highly recommend.

    The tapas here were extremely underwhelming. I was excited to check this place out since it had lots of good reviews and the food looked good but it did not live up to the hype. Did a walk in and got seated immediately on a Monday. The paella was average and so were majority of the tapas. The only thing that was decent was the razor clams and the chicken croquettes. The tomato bread was so plain and same with the octopus sigh. I would recommend skipping this spot if you're looking for tapas.

    Tried the foie gras with steak, shrimp with scallops in mushroom sauce, razor clams and lobster rice. Yummy. Seating for 1 at the bar no problem

    Bustling vibe at the bar, with Christian, an amazing server keeping the pace going
    Pallavi P.

    Got here during the dinnertime rush, and were seated at the bar after a short wait. Christian who was handling the bar, our order and adeptly juggling another orders was our server. He recommended some dishes which we thoroughly enjoyed. The bustling and welcoming vibe is memorable. They have a rotating menu of daily specials. We got the beef and foie gras montadito, shrimp ajillo, grilled octopus (pulpo), and fried seafood. For dessert we took Christian's recommendation and ordered the torrida crema de St Teresa an amazing version of French toast which will always be one of my happiest food memories! This is topped with a Catalan crema making it a delicious, decadent dessert! I'll look forward to coming back here!

    Great place for tinned seafood tapas. If you're willing to try new things and not against tinned fish, I highly recommend this place. Waited in line 15 minutes before it opened and we got in. English friendly. As a tourist, I like that they have a time limit.

    Didn't make a reservation for this place but we thought if we got there early enough we would get a seat for two fairly quick and that's how it was! It was a lovely day so most people preferred outdoor seating vs indoor but we were hungry so inside was just fine, plus, the decor and ambiance was so cute that it honestly doesn't matter where you sit. The hostess that showed us to our seat was nice and our server even nicer. The menu had a great selection of tapas as well as regular dishes, when in Barcelona of course, tapas is always a must. The price was fair, some food was a bit more than others so there's always something for everyone's pocket. The place is a nice place for a group as well for a solo or a date, they have an excellent wine selection as well as some juices and soft drinks. The food was very tasty, but I did have the little steaks with padrón peppers and the pepper was super spicy, not sure why because I've had those peppers many time before at diff restaurants and this is the very first time is spicy so eye on that if you don't tolerate spice! Our sever kept checking if we had everything we needed which is always appreciated. I wanted to try more things but I was so stuffed lol, however, I did have space for some dessert haha... I had the brownie, it was soft and warm, very rich too, super good! So if you want a cute place that feels somewhat upscale but doesn't break the bank, try this place!

    Tenderloin with foie gras. One of the best I've had anywhere.

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!

The feta cheese was absolutely disgusting, it tasted like imitation rubber cheese. - The "Al Ajillo" Style Shrimps (GAMBES AMB ALLADA) had a very strange flavor within it, which overwhelmed the garlic flavors. - The Beef Tenderloin (FILET VEDELLA), she had to spit 1/4 of it out because it was too tough. - Everything was overpriced there for the value. If you are in the area DO NOT waste your time nor money dining here!!!

The foie gras was absolutely unforgettable--rich, delicate, and simply to die for. The sangria was equally exceptional, fresh, balanced, and dangerously delicious. But what makes this place truly special is something that can't be captured on a menu. The atmosphere, the warmth, the way time seems to slow down... words simply can't do it justice. If you're visiting Barcelona, don't just come here for dinner. Come here to fall in love with the food, the city, the moment, or maybe even someone sitting across the table. An experience I'll never forget.

Well, the restaurant was cute and cozy with a great ambiance. With luck on our side, we found two seats at the bar and quickly ordered drinks. We ordered a pitcher of the sangria (because why not?). The sangria was delicious, refreshing, and made to order. It was definitely more authentic than what we're getting in America. We ordered the patatas bravas, tempura asparagus, the octopus, and the steak. It all came out as it became available. We couldn't decide what our favorite was, to be honest. We ordered an ice cream sandwich for dessert and quickly requested our bill. We didn't want to hold the staff up as we noticed they were cleaning the establishment and people were finishing up. Overall, what a great experience for our first meal in Barcelona! Cute and hidden gem.
