Diània

First meal stop in Barcelona and it didn’t disappoint! Diana seems to be a local favorite, and I can see why. The place had a steady flow of people, mostly locals enjoying a relaxed meal. Everything was well-prepared and satisfying. Service was friendly and casual. A solid first taste of the city—nothing overly fancy, but definitely a good experience.

A true hidden gem in Barcelona’s food scene—where I had what might just be the best paella in the city. My local friend, who joined me, said it was the best paella he’s ever had… and that’s saying something. Arroz “del Senyoret” was outstanding—flavors beautifully balanced, rich with umami, featuring the coveted socarrat (that delicious caramelized crust at the bottom of the pan) and perfectly cooked, still opaque shrimp. We also tried two appetizers: anchovies in vinegar and smoked eel. Both were made with the freshest ingredients and expertly seasoned. The eel, with its subtle smoky finish, was especially memorable—I’m still craving it.

I loved every piece except for coca de Ilanda. Arros Negre was amazing. It was creamy and very flavorful. Sangria was delicious. Couland the torro Came with lemon ice cream. It was a nice match. Except all I kind of disliked ilanda since it was dry.. But I would definitely visit again!!

My favorite meal in Barcelona. Simple, solid home cooking. We tried a lot of Spanish/Catalan restaurants while traveling here and this place really nailed it with simplicity. The service was excellent and made us feel right at home. First waiter we had in 5 days that recommended wine to us. I really enjoyed this spot.

Definitely one of the better Paella places in Barcelona. It is well known among locals as well and is located in the vibrant neighborhood of Gràcia. The service in this place is amazing! And the ambience is relaxing. We got the cuttlefish on olive oil with parsley for starters and the Valenciana paella for two. Also got the sangria to wash it all down. It came down to about 70 euros which is fair for the very fresh and high quality food. I will be sure to return and try the paella negra next time!

We were two ~ spent 70€ Nice place, good food 😋

This beautiful Valencia style restaurant was extremely delicious. Once you take your first bite of the paella, it will put a smile on your face. We fell in love with all the food and the vibe here. Must visit place in Barcelona! Estanise gave us the best time possible and we left with an amazing memory.

We went to Park Guell and came here after we heard about it from the locals. Everything is unbelievable. The patatas brava and chicken croquettes, that we had before paella, were very good. You can even put the sauce on the potato brava on to your skin every day for healing, it was that good. Then we ordered paella valenciana as the main course and it was the best paella we have ever had. Price service ambiance flavour 5/5. See you next time!
