About this spot
Sal Mar delivers authentic Spanish rice without the tourist traps found elsewhere in La Barceloneta. You'll find their paellas are cooked in traditional clay pots, ensuring that distinct smoky flavor from the socarrat crust at the bottom of the pan.
π‘ Tips before you go
- Order a side of alioli to dip your bread into before the rice absorbs all the broth.
- Save room for a glass of local Cava to cut through the richness of the saffron-infused grains.
