I don 't know why this restaurant has got its rating, the service was terrible, the food was terrible, the whole atmosphere was terrible. Wouldn't recommend this to anyone. Want good tapas, go to the local market, great fresh food and service.

Enjoyed the tapas. Good selection of seafood tapas, moderately priced. It's a busy restaurant, very popular, so there's usually a wait for a table and a lot of hustle and bostle. But authentic and service is polite.
All the tapas are amazing. you might have to wait for a table cause they dont take reservations, but if you are with 2 or 4 people you will be seated faster than with 3. try, camembert crujiete and also de croquetas de jamon y queso, mini hamburguesas and the sirlion tapa. and the sangriaaa is greatt!
Waited for an hour and a half for the table but it was definitely worth the wait. Great selection of Tapas, a must when in Barcelona
Fantastic tapas! Great service and the place has a nice buzz around it. Try and get a place at the bar! Try the Gamba a la plancha, or the alcahofas, or the grilled vegetables. Make reservations to avoid to queue, the place is packed with locals.

We came here on a Friday night, we were told we'd have to wait 1 hour 15-30 mins for a table (they don't take reservations). We went to a bar for a drink for 45 min then returned. We waited in the bar area and were called after 25 mins. When we sat down we were overwhelmed with choice, we...

Such a shame this restaurant has been refurbished, now with a very contemporary look and feel. The original was much more inviting. The majority of the staff appear to be Chinese or Asian, and not what you might expect in a Spanish tapas restaurant. The tapas menu has been significantly reduced since our last visit, along with a very basic...

Excellent dinner with a huge crowd of local and tourist guests. We had to wait for almost 2 hours, signing in at peak hours at 21.30 on a saturday. But, as you can wait while enjoying drinks from the bar or hoover for seats in the bar, the wait can also be an enjoyable relaxing "peopleviewing" opportunity.

The look of a dish is surely as important as the taste, so sitting at the bar gives your eyes participation in putting together your meal; but when with friends, it is antithetic to free flowing conversation, so we opted wait about 20 minutes for a table. The tapas menu contains the standard selection you would find in most barcelona...
