    This was our first time at Barcelona and it was a lovely experience. We went with all Tapas and it was great - the Queso y Jamón, Filete de Hierro Plano (this was amazing!), Patatas Bravas, Calamares Fritos, and Chorizo (in the most delicious broth). We also had an excellent pistachio cheesecake. I loved the ambience and that we didn't feel rushed out - we could eat leisurely like we did in Spain. Olivia was our server and she was attentive and kind. This was our first time and it won't be our last.

    The appetizers were good, but the entrees were not good. The pork tenderloin was extremely tough and tasted more like hamburger meat and the paella left much to be desired. It definitely was not as good as it was in the past few times we visited. Not sure we will be back the next time we are in town. but the service was outstanding!

    Visited for the first time to celebrate our wedding anniversary. The entire experience was wonderful. We were greeted at front desk acknowledging our anniversary, received menus recognizing it was our anniversary, server was superb (thanks, Ethan), food was grand (we explored the tapas menu), and we left perfectly happy. The building and interior are exquisite. We will definitely be back.

    Excellent service and dinner. We had the mushroom soup which was excellent, and the mixed salad which had a blend of wonderful flavors. My wife had the salmon and I had the pork tenderloin. The salmon was delicious. The pork was good but I liked the salmon better. We shared a chocolate pudding cake for dessert. We also had a bottle of Spanish rose wine which exceeded our expectations. We always enjoy dining at Barcelona.
