1/1 Ambience; 2/2 Food; 1/1 Service; 1/1 Value
My friend and I spontaneously stepped into Barcelona during our day trip to New Haven from NYC. Even on a weekend evening, the hostess was able to accommodate us right away and the entire staff was very friendly, helpful, and attentive. The restaurant has a warm and modern atmosphere that is perfect for dates or dinners with family.
We got the patatas bravas, queso a la plancha, gambas al ajillo, steak paillard, and paella mariscos. They also give crusty bread and olive oil to start with, the latter having a very high quality taste. We also had some drinks that were refreshing and well balanced. My favorite was the patatas bravas, which were crispy and so well seasoned accompanied by the tomato-based sauce and the creamy garlic aioli-- absolutely phenomenal dish! The paella mariscos was also incredible with the edges having a beautiful caramelized quality and every bite being so flavorful! The shrimp and steak were both perfectly cooked and delectable, and the only dish we didn't like was the overly sweet queso.
For the quality of the food and the rather portion sizes, Barcelona is a great value for a lovely evening dining experience! If I lived closer to, I would certainly frequent more often and I would highly recommend if you are in the area!
Chic tapas place. Lively space, so lively I was pleasantly surprised we were seated immediately, so lively we had a tough time hearing each other.
The star dishes (recommended by friends) were great choices and we'd recommend them in turn:
- Patatas bravas, potato chunks with sauces that made them go down nicely.
- Chorizo and figs, exactly what it sounds like. Rich flavor, and we liked dipping potatoes in the dark sweet glaze.
The swiss chard was good. The mahi mahi was not that good.
They have a good sangria deal and a solid wine.
What a remarkable evening! My colleague and I had the absolute delight of dining at Barcelona following our invigorating conference at Yale. Our experience was nothing short of exceptional, all thanks to the incredible Tara who took care of us with unmatched expertise. We surrendered ourselves to Tara's guidance, choosing our entire culinary journey under her skillful recommendation.
Prepare to be amazed, because each dish that graced our table was an explosion of flavors and a true testament to culinary artistry. The croquettes, steak, empanada, and shrimp left us in awe, but the finale was an unforgettable symphony of taste: the burnt cheesecake and olive oil cake were pure bliss.
It's not just the food that earned our admiration; the ambiance itself is a masterpiece, deserving of a constellation of stars. And then there's Tara--what a gem! Her service transcends the ordinary, surpassing all expectations. Five stars wouldn't suffice to capture her dedication and attention to detail.
If you ever find yourself at this culinary haven, make sure to inquire for Tara's guidance. Trust me, you'll find yourself in the hands of a culinary virtuoso. Barcelona, you've won our hearts and taste buds indefinitely!
My first time coming here, I didn't make reservations.The food is so tasty. Highly recommended
The ambiance at this establishment was amazing. Our servers Marissa and Ally took extensive care of us and make sure we got an amazing experience here. Highly recommended.
Amazing food, wine, and service. We had never been to Barcelona before, but were amazed by the quality of food and service. The experience was fabulous - Brandon went above and beyond to ensure our experience was great. He even recommended dishes at other Barcelona restaurants which we will make a point to try! Would recommend to anyone looking for authentic tapas and an overall great experience.
Really nice ambiance, service was fantastic. Tipped over 20%. We're vegetarian and he went to the kitchen and marked off every veg option, which is above and beyond. The food was a bit of a mixed bag, but a few were great. The roasted corn is amazing, the potato tortilla was great, the artichoke was good, the watermelon was decent, the mushroom dish was bad unless you love a huge bowl of mushrooms that just taste like simply seasoned mushrooms. All-in-all a good experience to try a bunch of small Spanish dishes. It's just not often the best example of any one thing.
