Soma restaurant

The food was underwhelming and the dining experience on the bar is uncomfortable and unsuitable for having a convenient dinner. The place doesn't have good air conditioning/ventilation, only a ceiling fan which didn't help much so it was very hot. The staff was nice but inattentive, when we asked for the bill the waiter took 15 minutes to bring it after asking for a second time to bring it, while he was right in front of us the entire time at the bar and next to the cash register doing other things. The steak tartar was bland and with a weird texture. The skirt steak meat (photo not included in the review) took way too long to be prepared and was way too chewy but at least the sauce was nice. The cheese fritters and patatas bravas were food. Overall for what it was, in terms of experience and food, it felt that it was overpriced.

Had a very expertly prepared dinner at this vibrant and cosy bistro. Tables and interior space is a bit small, as a party of three and barely enough table space the fat dishes, and bottle of wine. For starters, we had the patatas bravas, prawn carpaccio in almond sauce (reminiscent of a very nice satay), roasted cauliflower, sautéed mushrooms, which was the best mushroom dish we had on our two week Spain, food tour. Means we have the rigatoni, ricotta gnocchi (very delicate, but the sweet pea sauce didn’t quite work), and the pork belly (nice crispy skin, but meat was a bit dried out). We also had a very nice bottle of orange wine called Sking & queen. I love the weight and our Spain food tour.

Amazing tapas place in Barcelona! The best we had. We came in an hour before closing and the host still accommodated us. Quick and great service! You MUST try the grilled octopus. 🐙

Lovely food, service and vibes. Good price and portion. Second time here in our four days trip

10/10 exceptional food. The octopus is a def must have. My husband love the risotto.

Great vibes, small place, definitely make reservations in advance since they do fill up. The veal cheek has to be the best meat I’ve ever had, super tender and flavorful. The portion is small though considering the price (compared to other restaurants in BCN)

Super cozy spot with excellent drinks, good selection of wines and delicious tapas dishes. The vibe is intimate and relaxing, perfect for smaller friend groups or a date night. Service was also fantastic, will definitely be going back on a later occasion!

We had a perfect evening enjoying the delicious food and the excellent service. We sat outside and enjoyed the warm evening in November. We had a large selection of dishes to share and enjoyed a bottle of orange natural wine together with different drinks both to start and to finish. We had a great conversation and the staff let us keep the table until they closed at midnight. I highly recommend this place.
