Bodega Solera - Review - Eixample - Barcelona - The Infatuation

"The folks fromBar Muthave done it again with Bodega Solera. Consider it like the scrappy cousin of the family who loves to drink and isn’t trying to hide it. The vibe is Andalusian tavern-meets-Barcelona tapas bar with loud flamenco music, and diners who are even louder. Adding to the energy are walls full of vintage 1960s and ’70s photography—passport portraits and weddings long forgotten—and more bottles than you can count (the wine list has more than 1,700 labels, all natural), plus food that flows plentifully. There are platters of Iberian charcuteries and stinky cheeses, tangy red peppers stuffed with smooth cod loin, and a tomato tartare that is deliciously sharp and umami-filled thanks to generous splashes of sherry vinegar and yondu." - Isabelle Kliger
