Our server, Ruben, asked us if it was our first time dining here and it was. He confidently said that we wouldn't regret it and, lo and behold, he was right. Definitely one of the best dining experiences in Barcelona. Everything that we ordered, from the fried squid to the paella, was outstanding. Just delicious. We also have to mention that the service was impeccable. Ruben was one of the best servers we have ever had. He was very attentive, funny and chatty. We highly recommend this restaurant.

Book ahead. We took a Saturday 3pm for lunch. We sat downstairs. The view is better upstairs but the vibe was way more chilled downstairs (view still good). All the food was excellent (croquettes and tomato bread to start, the razor clam and artichoke rice for main. Service was perfect. We enjoyed white and rosè by the glass
