GiGi von tapas

Had an amazing dinner here! We ordered a number of dishes and every single one was packed with flavour. I really appreciated that the dishes were served one at a time - it allowed us to savour and enjoy each one fully. My favourites were definitely the prawn and mussels - sooo delicious. We also got a jug of sangria, which was super refreshing and paired perfectly with the food. A big shoutout to our server, Wilson, who made the evening even better with his energy and fun personality. Great food and great vibes all around!

The tapas here is phenomenal. We had 7 dishes in total and each and every one was fantastic. The standout dish for us was the meatballs followed closely by the croquettes also the fries with jalapeno mayonnaise deserve a special mention. The staff were all friendly and happy and always very observant for when our plates or glasses were empty. It's located around a 5 minute walk from Sagrada de Familia and well worth the time. Or if you need a dinner spot whilst waiting for the lights on the cathedral to turn on then this is what I would suggest.

The experience at Gigi Von Tapas was phenomenal. Beautiful atmosphere with cosy decorations! The staff were so welcoming, Aye was particularly helpful with picking dishes and discussing portion sizes. Juan the bar tender made beautiful cocktails which had us going back for more. Jose was an excellent waiter who had plates ready to put down as soon as we finished one. Overall, amazing tapas experience and I highly recommend if you find yourself in Barca!

was looking a place where i can get some simple traditional spanish tapas, the menu here has a good selection with reasonable price. not too hungry so ordered a few light dishes, i think overall everything was average. the tomato bread was the diy kind, i guess it can be a fun experience but i would rather to have it come all ready to serve, haha! that’s just my personal preference. the croquettes were a bit ordinary, ham was ok so was the green pepper, portion was generous. nothing is outstanding but at the same time i don’t have a huge expectation, i’ll say it’s worth a try but not a must.

Staff was very friendly, helpfull and talkative! I teach them a few words in turkish. Beers were amazing. Bravas was very original. Tomato bread and padrones also nice. What do I want more? :)

EXCELLENT!! We came here after La Sagrada and it did not disappoint. The had so many delicious and unique tapas and fun drinks. The service was great and everyone was super friendly and gave great recommendations. Plus, super cute and trendy environment. If you are in the area, definitely make a stop here.

Stop off here while we were passing and ending up staying for drinking and tapas. Very relaxed, good food and the staff were amazingly friendly. Specially Yvonne and Carla. Definitely worth stopping here to relax with food and good drinks. Thanks you! 😍

Went here a year later and the second time, was still as good. Friendly service, good sangria, the food is amazing, and speakeasy atmosphere. I’m sure I’ll visit again.

Seat wait was pretty fast, nice and welcoming, very accommodating! The place has a rustic feel, the lights are dim and overall very chill, good ambiance. They are open late so plenty of time to eat. The staff was very nice, they spoke english which is a plus to ask any questions regarding the menu. They have some non-alcoholic options like mock-tails besides regular cocktails and beer. The food was delish, we ordered a bunch of tapas and everything was so tasty, and good portions too, worth every penny, will definitely be coming back!

The best thing here is the drunken prawns. NUTS! The flavors and the butter and mix is to die for. Get it! Everything else is satisfactory. The long pieces of bread with a middle eastern tzatziki taste dip in the middle is also good. Very kind and funny servers who all speak English.

this place is more like a 2.5 out of 5 stars. we finished walking around the La Sagrada Familia and was looking for a tapas place nearby. we saw that this location had tapas on google maps, so we decided to walk here to check it out. honestly this place is a letdown. the menu was lacking and the service wasn't that good. We did get seated fairly quickly, but it took forever for them to come around to get our order, and it took a while for them to get out checks. as for the food, i ordered a russian salad, potato wedges and bread tomato. the bread tomato was deconstructed and very sad. the russian salad with anchovies was similar to potato salad. The best thing was the potato wedges with spicy sauce. i would skip this place and find something else.

Wonderful service and delicious tapas. Second time here. Outstanding food and service

We tried the bread accompaniment, the endive salad, the miso salmon, and both croquettes. Every dish was good, and I would order it again. I thought the prices were reasonable as well. The service was great, and fast (although it was not too busy at 7 pm on a Monday). We informed our server of allergies and he took extra care to ask clarifying questions and confirmed with the chef. All servers spoke English very well. I'd definitely come back here again.

I feel bad writing this review since the server seemed to be running around, but the day we came here it was packed outside with just one waitress. The food was not great. I think it's hard when you go to a million tapas places in a week, get the same dishes and then can compare some that are fine and some that are unbelievable. We tried the tomato bread (which tasted like old stale bread), the croquettes (which were fine), a farro salad and an eggplant dish. The eggplant was so fried that it was almost a challenge to eat. The outdoor seating is great, but maybe we'd tried different dishes on our next visit here.

Great spot with outdoor seating for tapas, super close to my family's Barcelona Airbnb and the Monumental subway station. They were able to seat my family of six right away outside (only wish they had more than two heat lamps so we could have had one too) on Saturday evening around 8 p.m. I believe. We ordered Gigi's fries, huevos rotos, drunken prawns, braised lamb, pan fried chorizo, and the shishito peppers (pimientos padron). I think we also ordered the tacos and the calamari after our initial order. We never got our prawns but that's okay since we had enough to eat. They kindly did not charge us for three hot waters with lemon (most other places in Spain charged for this). Food was good and service was friendly and relatively fast, except for the tacos which our server apologized for the wait.

Great tapas spot, especially for vegetarians! Lots of food in Barcelona (especially tapas) is usually meat heavy but gigi's has a lot of yummy veggie-friendly option which I love. The gyozas are my fav! And the sangria is fire too.

Great spot for amazing tapas. One of my absolutely favorite restaurants in Barcelona!

Good sangria & great tapas. Iberica ham was outstanding , great cheese selection. Wonderful wings

10/10, would highly recommend as a MUST for Barcelona! The food is absolutely spectacular, get the gyozas! Our server, Fabio was incredible. Amazing recommendations and excellent hospitality, left behind a bag and he kept it for us!

My first tapas experience in Barcelona was ruined by an astounding hour wait time for the staff to ask me if I wanted anything else to eat, when I hadn't eaten anything. Then a further wait before my food was started, prepared, and delivered. This has been my only negative experience in Barcelona so far. Sadly they made no offer of any discount on the bill for the mistake. Unfortunate, because if the service had been better I would have loved to return here. There are too many delicious things to eat in this great city to waste more time returning somewhere like this. Check out the excellent Pasta Market instead.

Great place to brunch! They have many options for vegan and many drinks to try. The only reason I'm not giving 5* is because the patio is situated on a busy street. I strongly recommend that you try this place if you're visiting Barcelona.

wow. so delicious i can't stop eating these chicken wings they might be the best ones I've ever had. Don't miss them when you come

This place was a nice little surprise on our way to the Cathedral. The weather was nice so we decided to sit outside. We ordered some very interesting vegan entrees. We certainly were glad to bump into this place and would definitely recommend this place.

Sticking wings are the best wings I have ever had in my life. I went here probably 10 times in my 2 months there. Nice staff. Bread and oil is also really good along with the risotto.
