RESTAURANT BARQUET

From the outside it looked a bit dodgy but once we got in the food was very nice. We had the paella which was great and the seafood (sea snails and mussels) very tasty. Especially the spicy sauce with the mussels. One of the best paellas in spain that we have tasted. Highly recommend if you are in town.

Service 2/5. We waited 20 minutes for the order to be accepted, then we constantly had to catch the waiter, which, by the way, is quite a lot. Menu only on catalan. The design is 3/5. It looks like they did, in their opinion, a designer renovation on their own 30 years ago. The food is 4.5/5. No complaints or comments, everything is very high quality and delicious. But it's not interesting, everything is simple and without author's ideas.

I liked this place but it didnt quite hit home with me unfortunately, and I think it is more of a taste preference. I think their ingredients are fresh and we definitely enjoyed the cuttlefish rice dish that was recommended to us as it was flavourful. However I felt that it was just a little too salty to eat more than a small portion and I just felt very thirsty afterwards for several hours. The mussels were again fresh, but I think they need to be a lot more creative about the sauce in which it is prepped. We chose the lemon sauce since i dont recall the other two options being smt we were interested in (one other was celery sauce??) and I think the taste of the fresh mussels did not reach their potential.

Nice place for rice dishes during lunchtime. We had buñelos of cod (ok) and sea snails (nice and fresh but not impressed by the accompanying sauces) for a starter and then the recommended black rice with calamari and artichokes. It was tasty, but slightly salty (although I tend to find the paellas in Spain often a bit salty).

The service was good - really friendly staff! The food was incredibly disappointing and bland. Everything was overly salty so as to hide the taste of the meal. The mussels were abysmal (felt like you could get a better meal at any restaurant on the side of the road), the spaghetti with clams was truly terrible they didn’t clean the clams properly of debris and it felt like you were eating spaghetti with little rocks. Everything else was barely edible the prawns were so bland (with “garlic sauce”) One terrible dish after the other. We tried about 10 dishes none of them were good let alone impressive. Genuinely surprised they have a Michelin Star

One of the oldest restaurants in Tarragona. Nice staff, food is superb, trying to use local providers and ingredients. We were a big group and we were all satisfied.

Amazing seafood restaurant from 3rd generation s chef. Seasonal products, good service.

Fresh seafood in a cozy setting with kind and attentive staff. We went with 2 young toddlers, having tasty seafood paella, angelhair cooked in yummy sauce (very thoughtful of the kitchen to cut the pasta and to avoid any seafood as my young one is allergic), fried small fish and deep fried small octopus. They don't speak much English but the lady took her time to explain the best she could in a mixture of catalan and English of what was on the menu, and provided good recommendation. After visiting Barcelona, this appeared to be our best meal and the best service, so far.
