Beautiful small restaurant with a good variety of tapas. We ordered several tapas dishes and all were of good taste. I was really interested in octopus. It was quite tasty but it could've been a little warmer. After we arrived, it got really crowded and there were these two lovely ladies trying to help every single tabel but it was almost impossible to do that. We wanted to order a couple more tapas and beer but we waited 10 minutes which is quite a long time to order. Then we decided to leave. Overall experience: visit this place and enjoy their dishes.
I got treated to brunch here for my birthday- what a lovely restaurant oozing with charm and ambiance. Definitely a must visit when in the El Born area in Barcelona. The food was delicious and well presented. The staff ere all very friendly and welcoming.
Have been here in the past for brunch. Came here this time for lunch. Appreciated that we got a table without reservation, even if the server gave us only 45min. Prefer that over other restaurants that block the whole time even if the next reservation is only at least 1 hour from that moment.The lunch we had was great. The eggplant was lovely but i loved the most the tuna burger. A good combo of fresh seafood “salty” bun. Really enjoyed!
A very enjoyable visit. The restaurant is cosy and with some of the smaller tables using soft furniture chairs it's almost like being in someone's front room, especially as there's a fireplace there too .We were quick to be seated and offered menus along with special dishes of the day. Everything arrived promptly. The presentation of the food and the flavours were fantastic. Recommend trying the pistachio dessert, its very light and a thing of wonder to look at.Highly recommend a visit here if you have the chance.
This place was great! Great food. Great drinks. The waitress knew the assignment. We told her we were ready to eat and she knew exactly what to recommend. She was super friendly. Fred was actually in the kitchen cooking. It was cool! I thought the squid was a bit bland for my taste, but it was cooked to perfection otherwise. We also got a lamb ingot. It was "melt in your mouth" good!
