Pez Vela

Great place to eat after the beach. Paella was huge! More than enough for 2 people. Clams in tomato sauce also good! Lobster croquettes weren’t that good overall okay value for money.

The location, presentation and food were 10/10!!!You will need to reserve a table for this fabulous restaurant!!The fried seabass was so light and fresh and was accompanied with 3 delightful saucesWe then had the fried artichoke and baby squid black rice and this paella was delicious!I would highly recommend going here for a beautiful beach dinner!

Right under the W Hotel, Pez Vela serves the best paella in town. They have a large menu full of traditional dishes like gazpacho but you should definitely go for the paella. It's just perfect with sangria. It's a bit pricey but worth it.

Overall we enjoyed our meal at Peix Vela. The location is wonderful overlooking the beaches of Barcelona. The first round of dishes ordered were amazing. No complaints about them at all. The seafood (scallops and mussels) were fresh and tasty. The chicken was very moist and tender. The spicy potatoes was my favourite version that I tried in Spain. However, when we enquired about the size of the paella we were left assuming it would be just enough to make us all full. Upon asking about the size we were not consulted properly and therefore overwhelmed when it arrived. The paella itself was too salty and was not pleasant to finish. The waiter also took away the empty water and did not return it for the remainder of the meal. The two Aperol spritz ordered before the food failed to be made and after reminding the staff no apologies came from the waiter that took our order. Although the beginning dishes of our meal were perfect (see pictures) the overall service and experience was sub par. I would return to give this restaurant another go because I believe our experience was not a reflection of the whole establishment.

The food is amazing, especially the fish starters. I enjoyed them all: octopus, mussels, croquetas... I can’t pick a favorite because they're all fantastic.The place is also very nice, with a terrace overlooking the ocean and an open kitchen indoors.It would have been a 5-star review if it weren't for the rushed service. The waitresses were very kind, but they rushed the service so much that we got the paella before we could even finish our starters. This resulted in amazing food that went cold and was unfinished. Additionally, they were in such a hurry that they came to remove our plates while we were still eating. This made our experience a bit uncomfortable, and we couldn't enjoy the food as much as we wished.It's not that the waiters weren't nice, but my suggestion is for better scheduling of the tables so that clients don’t need to rush through their meal.
