Salamanca

I had eaten my first paella here and I loved. We ordered paella with seafood for 2 people, portion is so big. And also we tried sangria which cost is super convenient. After that they will serve as free shots and desert. Also waiter is so funny and he is so kind. Best experience in barcelona for me

I have visited many restaurants in Barcelona over the years, but this is the one I keep coming back to — for 20 years in a row. Yes, twenty years. That alone probably says more than any description could. The food is genuinely delicious, consistently so. The scale of the restaurant is impressive — there are two or even three separate buildings next to each other operating as dining spaces — and yet there are still queues. After all these years, people are still willing to wait. That speaks volumes. The interior might feel a bit simple and not particularly refined, but the quality of the cuisine and the speed of service are simply outstanding.

so i know this restaurant and ate here about 6 times in the last 10 years, which is every time i visited barcelona these years. everything is the same, which is perfect! for me the taste of paella was born here, this is my forrever comparison so dont hesitate! clean and carefull service, everything i tried tasted amazing and nothing beats dinner by the sea, ofc!

Lovely seafood restaurant with really delicious dishes. I didn't really felt the unpleasant approach of the staff like others describe. On contrary everyone was really nice and welcoming. We were offered some tomato bread with olives and salami at the beginning (not charged at the end). Then we ordered a paella for 4 people. And to our experience it is the best paella we had to this moment. The combination of special spice combination and a lot of seafood (really a lot) make it truly amazing. At the end we were offered almond cake and some local herbal liquor free of charge. All together it was a lovely family dinner for us.

Food 3 stars ,I head an octopus that unfortunately wasn't the best ,wasn't fresh made,just warmed and nobody can convince me that it was otherwise. Service nice but they push you to buy things,I didn't mind that because I know this pattern, the problem its that can be annoying when they push to much and probably that's why so many 1 star rewies. Little bit overpriced.

Great location and a really nice vibe, it’s a pleasant place to sit and enjoy the atmosphere. The staff were friendly and welcoming, which made the experience better. The food was a bit too salty for my taste. It wasn’t bad, but the seasoning overpowered the flavours. Still, for the setting and service, it’s a decent spot.

Don't go to this place in the evening. My son is an international student in Barcelona and was the victim of minor fraud that was supported by some of the night staff. What happened: On January 13th (at around 9 PM - I hope the owner of the business investigates his staff on this), my son and his roommate were having dinner there. He said that within a few minutes, a small group of men assembled outside of the restaurant. They then entered the restaurant and starting playing music at the tables and demanding money, even though my son and his roommate did not solicit them. They would not leave until my son gave them 8 Euros. Next, these people spoke to the staff in a language that was not Spanish or English and they were pointing at my son and his roommate and it was heard that they were mentioning that they were "Americans". Next, 4 items showed up that were not ordered by my son or his roommate and they said they did not order these items. The restaurant staff refused to reconcile this and forced my son to pay an extra 15 Euros for the items that he did not order and did not touch/eat. I am filing this complain on Google because it is obvious that the people in the restaurant have some kind of scam going with these people that entered the restaurant. They are failing to secure the restaurant from these people enterring and demainding money. I fault the restaurant for allowing these people in and for ripping my son off of about 25 EUR. The staff involved should be investigated and fired. An international traveller should be able to enjoy a meal without being ripped off and harassed.

Incredible restaurant full of history. They have very friendly and fun employees and the freshest food. Seafood paella was great and sangria simply the best 🤌🏻 our local Barcelona guide recommended it to us as an authentic establishment, and we are so glad we listened to his advice.
