About this spot
This bustling Eixample institution serves up legendary tapas like crispy fideuà and tender lamb chops that define authentic Catalan street food culture. Locals flock here for the communal energy of a packed bar counter where you must order directly from the chef rather than reading a printed menu. The house vermouth is an essential pre-dinner ritual, perfectly balanced to cut through the rich flavors of the fried calamari and anchovy croquettes.
💡 Tips before you go
- Order your drinks first at the bar before the kitchen gets overwhelmed with dinner rush orders.
- Expect to stand or sit on high stools as tables are scarce during peak hours.
- Share small plates like the patatas bravas among your group to try more varieties.
