    As always Barcelona did not disappoint! My wife and I shared a few tapas, a good bottle of champagne, and dessert and everything was 10/10! Our waiter, Russ, was attentive and helpful with menu questions and suggestions.

    While I don’t think one’s a fault if the restaurant per se, we weren’t seared until Approximately 30 minutes after our reservation.

    Service was excellent and addressed the fact that our food was slow to arrive. They gave us a complimentary dessert. We really enjoyed the wine recommendation and the tapas.

    It was a Sunday after Christmas and we weren’t certain how busy but it was packed by the time we finished dinner (approximately after 7:30). We weren’t certain quickly seated when we arrived. We both started with drinks. My Manhattan was tasty but in a fairly small rock glass for $15 and my wife had a NA Spritz that was $13 in long stem glass with lots of ice (seemed a bit pricey). We both had a bowl of gazpacho which was large and was very tasty. It’s was delightful. My wife had the salmon special which was delicious and came with shishito peppers . I had their Cameron tapas shrimp which were also extremely delicious. We finished with tres leches which was flavorful and has a great texture.

    The ambience is great but the service was terrible from Start to finish. Bartender made our drinks but didn’t serve us. Just lined them up and there was one too many as he didn’t pay attention to our revised order. We had to serve ourselves the drinks. Our waitress not engaged and acted like she wanted to be anywhere but there. Braised beef was delicious and the empanadas good but nothing special. Overall we were disappointed as it came highly recommended.

    The gazpacho was the best I've ever had (and I am a "gazpacho fan"). All of us (4 adults) felt that the food, service, and ambience were superb. (The noise level was high, but we realize that most busy restaurants are loud for relaxed conversation.) In sum, it was a wonderful evening.
