Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Over rated. The food was ver average, plates were cold. Definitely don’t have the mussels. Not taste and we had to ask for some bread. The best part was the taped music.

Tiny little place at the front but goes back a way. Traditional Spanish bar with food. There were two of us and we shared a tapas starter (pulled beef buns) had separate mains and shared a dessert with drinks came to €76. The roast pork...on sweet potato puree was very tasty. Very quick and attentive manager who spoke English.More

Stopped in with 4 friends for a quick lunch of tapas, and although the staff were great, they were run off of their feet. Common problem though, with staffing being a problem across the industry. That being said, the food was terrific and our server...maintained his cool, even though he really had to hustle. Very good value for the quality,.More

I have lived in Paris and have never experienced such a bad service as in this place. Horrible profiling of clients. Waiters choose who they are friendly with and who they pay attention to. We had to wait too long for our order to be...taken and then we had to wait a lot for the check....other tables were served but our wasn´t. I feel a lot of factors went into this, profiling us because we were all women and latinas...the waiter is Argentinian and was very nice to the Argentinian couple sitting next to us. He proactively ignored us. That takes skill. I have never witnessed that kind of effort on ignoring a table even when we asked if we could order and we got up to go to the bar when it was ridiculous the amount of time we waited. The place was not that busy when we got there.More

I don’t generally do bad reviews but the food was really poor, the waitress was incapable of smiling, one of the staff had a screaming match with two elderly customers and I was charged for a bottle of wine after being given two glasses of...wine. It was not a pleasant experienceMore

I have got to say I have just had the best burger I have ever had. I had the blue cheese burger. It was freshly cooked, tender succulent meat. Beautifully presented. Great atmosphere in a beautiful part of Barcelona.

We came here twice and really like the place. First night we had a table at the bar , we came late around 22, and had some very tasty tapas and nice wine. Very friendly staff and super atmosphere with some live music. The fried...squid was absolutely delicious. Second time early dinner at 19 when the place was empty, which fitted us very well we were tired after a full day of activity and only wanted a good meal. A black rice octopus paella and a tuna with ponzu fulfilled our wishes. Nice staff , good wine. Place filled up and was crowded when we left at 22. I would really recommend this place, very good food for the right price and a relaxed fun atmosphere.More

Just stopped by for drinks with a friend. Service was extremely slow (we felt invisible), but ambiance was great. Didn’t try any of the food. Good location for a drink when visiting Palau de Musica if you aren’t in a hurry.

El Born / La Ribera
The labyrinth that is El Born becomes most apparent
the moment you turn down one of its side streets. But
this is one of the few labyrinths you might actually
enjoy losing your way in. After all, there are few
places that live and breathe such exciting energy
regardless of the time of day. This neighbourhood
seamlessly transcends the old and new parts of the
city, reflected in its vast array of restaurants
