    Tapas of Spanish Omelette with Iberian Chorizo.
    Kelly W.

    I'm writing this review mainly because there are no current reviews. Wow was a late choice based on food they served, ratings, distance from our hotel and price. Glad to say we were pleasantly surprised. Dishes ordered: Cubano sandwich, Schnitzel sandwich, Ham & Cheese sandwich (hot), and a frittata called Tapas of Spanish Omelette with Iberian Chorizo. Everything looked and tasted great !!! Note: big food amounts. Great steak fries. Even enjoyed local beer on tap. From those who were here and those that arrived while we ate dinner looked like locals who frequent this business and for me that says a lot about the food and service. I would definitely recommend this restaurant. Come and enjoy.

    (clockwise)  Bread, Calamari, Manchego, roasted peppers and chicken nuggets.

    Searched on Yelp! for a reviewed Tapas place in the vicinity and plotted towards Wow. It was easy to find and walked right in. Being Spain, it was rather early in the evening for dinner (8pm), but the place was open with a few other folks dining and drinking as well. Ordered up a couple beers and perused the Tapas list. Wow has menus in English. We ordered up a few items: Manchego cheese, Hot roasted peppers; calamari and chicken nuggets. The Manchego was served thinly sliced, drizzled in olive oil with cracked peppercorns. Delicious of course. The calamari was okay. Not bad. Not outstanding. Same with the chicken fingers. They were good with the exceptional Thai spiced, sweet sauce served on the side. The highlight was the Hot Roasted Peppers (see picture). The were not hot as in spicy, but rather, served hot. They are slightly smaller than a Jalapeno, roasted, in a light olive oil, and sprinkled with sea salt. Their flavor was full...sort of like a poblano. One plate was not enough...so two were soundly consumed. The atmosphere of Wow! was great. Wooden floors, dark tones throughout, brought alive by modern creative lighting, good piped in music and very friendly staff. Would recommend.

    It really justifies the name! Very good food, large portions and very polite service. Definitely worth coming back again and again

Nestled in an unassuming network of cobble stone lined alley ways are hidden gems worth discovering. We came looking for tapas, paella, sangria; and we found just that. Location: Plaza de España is within a 5 min walk, blocks away from shopping, and 30 minutes from the airport by way of shuttle. Used Google Maps with several sharp turns to find this local favorite. Service: the owner employs his pet Pomeranian, that follows the wait staff unconditionally. This is a no frills restaurant; grab a seat anywhere you like, and order off the menu. What we ate: Table service - pitted olives; briny and herbaceous. So delicious as an appetizer. Crisp Potatoes - served with aioli and red pepper sauce; so simple yet so comforting. Fried Calamari - can't go wrong with crispy calamari. Pork & Mushroom Paella - I know we're used to seeing seafood, but pork and mushroom with crispy rice is different, bold, and worth each bite. Sangria Blanco - I won't lie, it was heaven with the first sip, and it left me wanting more. Unlike its red cousin; white sangria is lighter and more fruit forward. So refreshing! After 18 hours of transiting; this was a delectable experience.

Ziryab seemed to fit the bill, so we made plans to stop here during our first night in the city. Ziryab is located close to the Gothic Quarter, on side street. It's kind of inconspicuous from the outside, but the interior gives way to a really welcoming space. The restaurant is separated into two main areas, with an earth-tone color scheme that has a rustic, almost cave-like aesthetic. The high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows keep the dining room open and spacious. The tapas menu had a good selection, and we decided on several items: pan con tomate, sweet potato rolls, chicken cannelloni, bacon-wrapped figs, croquettes, falafel, and a charcuterie board. All the tapas were great - my favorites were the chicken cannelloni, pan con tomate, and the charcuterie board. The cannelloni especially was a standout - definitely a unique dish, and the chicken was super flavorful. We opted for dessert, and got the feta whip cheesecake - this was great as well. The combination of tang and sweet was a good finisher to our meal. Service was great - everyone was friendly and our dishes were served at a good pace. Overall, I'm glad I tried out Ziryab - the tapas were delicious and atypical of ones you find elsewhere in Barcelona. I would have no qualms returning here for another meal.

I had no idea how huge and elegant the restaurant was until I went inside to use the bathroom before leaving. We were there just after 7 pm so it wasn't as busy as I imagine it will get later, because in Barcelona, people don't have dinner until 9 or 10 PM. We ordered fresh salmon with dill, coroquetas de jamón iberico, a cod fritter, and chicken cannelloni with foie gras and black truffle sauce. We also ordered the pan with tomate, of course to soak up the truffle sauce. The cannelloni was amazing! I mean it melted in your mouth amazing!! After our snacks... We ordered dessert. We ordered their homemade Belgian chocolate ice cream, which is hands-down, the best chocolate ice cream I've ever eaten. And we also ordered their version of a crème brûlée called crema Catalonya! Both desserts were amazing, however, I highly recommend the Belgian chocolate ice cream. Overall, the experience was amazing and I hope to pop in again before we leave. Enjoy!

Both my son and I are very picky about Lebanese food having been spoiled by the excellent Lebanese in our home town Los Angeles, so we ordered with trepidation. The very first must-try dish immediately set our minds at ease: please, do yourselves a favor and order their Fatoush salad. It's done so right, juicy tangy, bursting with flavors and the pita in the salad is made into a curly flower and gives a delicious crunch. We liked the dish of garbanzo and yogurt a bit less, as it was quite heavy and lacked flavor. My son was very pleased with shish tavouk with chicken, and I loved my halloumi dish. The service was slow (as everywhere in Barcelona) but it was efficient, and our Egyptian waiter had good recommendations for everything. He was funny and personable.
