If you’re in the Poble-Sec neighborhood, definitely stop here. It’s quite small inside so we waited in line outside for about 15 minutes before getting standing room at the counter. We ordered a variety of tapas and the jerked beef was for sure at the top of my list, but everything was delicious! Great service and our server has happy to answer questions and guide us. Definitely get a glass of the house vermouth!

One of the best if not the best tapas place with a great wine selection. Quim, who is the 5th generation running the place, gave us great recommendations and we ended up asking him to just keep bringin what he wanted. He knows his menu we'll and kept surprising us through the 1h slot we were allowed. It's walk in only and may need to wait, but it's definitely worth it!

There’s no reservation. Either go early or go late. The time spent is limited and you’re cramped (in a good way!) Every dish is delicious and everyone is friendly. Really enjoyed the experience 🫶 Shrimp and red pepper and the salmon with yoghurt are a must get 😤

Amazing tapas bar. Loquat with sardines sounds crazy, but it was so good. Also really enjoyed the cod liver with tomato. The salmon with truffle honey was good too, but a little safe. If you come here I recommend trying something outside of your comfort zone.

Best flavours I’ve EVER tasted. If there’s one place you should eat at in Barcelona, it’s here! Especially loved the artichokes and caviar, salmon and truffle sandwich, apricot and anchovies, chestnut and yogurt dessert. Fabulous combinations with every ingredient heroed. It’s a standing only spot and had a long wait for entry. we were tired after a long day of walking, but it was still so so worth it. Thanks for a great time!
