Visited Washington from DC for two days and I am happy o could come to this cozy restaurant. In December I could eat outside thanks to heaters which is amazing, food is good quality, big variety of choices. Amazing ambiance, small piece of Spain ?? tasty, stuff is friendly and smiling, wine is also high quality with an incredible smell. Highly recommend that place !

Thanks to George Robert for helping me and my family trade, I got my withdrawal (cash out) yesterday. You're the best trader I've ever experience myself. After many times of been defrauded of my funds, i finally get to cash out. He's legit, reliable and experience. I invested $500 to earn $5,800... Easier than I thought Mr George Robert you're the best trader I can recommended for anyone who wants to invest and trade with a genuine trader,if interested contact him via Email: [email protected] Whatsapp: +44 7897 034686

The food is very good! The place is beautiful but too loud! I was very happy with the tapas. All of them simply delicious.

A visit to this restaurant is a must on every trip to DC. The menu has some old-standbys and new dishes; but the cooking of both is exceptionally good - it's hard to single out any dish that is better than another. Plus it's been consistently good on every visit for the past few years. My favourite plate, however, has been, and is, the figs and chorizo in red wine. The individual tapas are the right size for two to share and still be able to order several dishes. In terms of value for money, both food and wine are outstanding. The service is excellent , attentive but not rushed -- the server even remembered us from a year ago. For us, the only drawback was the noise level - but then again we were the oldest couple in the joint!!

This food was SO good and the bread is house made fresh and complimentary! ? so you know we got LOTS of bread. Also, the price wasn’t too bad for dine in! The wine was also really good. And such an amazing vibe inside and outside. Overall loved it!

I’ve tried Barcelona Wine Bar when vacationing in Denver and our experience was rather intimate. It was definitely a shock for me to not only have an extremely crowded bar but also too loud of a music you cannot even hear yourself giving the order.Server recommended two to three tapas per person which is about right. We ordered ten tapas and the only ones I remembered are: patatas bravas, shishito peppers, boquerones (sardines), mussels, ham croquettes, shrimp in garlic, and half paella seafood. We just came back from Spain two weeks ago and all of the tapas we ordered are very much comparable in taste, quality, serving size, and price. So I am very happy about that.The place is extremely packed when we came in at 10:15pm with a reservation. The service is rather slow. I think our waiter has way too many tables for him to handle. The manager actually served our first round of tapas and got our order drinks. I was very impressed that he remembered our drinks without writing them. Got me a little bit worried that he got them right because it took a very looong time before our drinks came. But hey, he got them 100% right!Five stars for the really great tapas and good but not great paella. Five stars also for the cocktails and wines we ordered.I’m normally empathetic coz the world is short-staffed. But I think since this is a franchise, they had a choice not too accept too many customers or to hire more help and whatever their choice was, it was not displayed right the night we visited. Less one star for the awful service.This is a wine bar, not a nightclub. Less another star for the too loud music.Make sure you make a reservation especially on weekends and holidays.

Although we got seated immediately, on a Saturday nonetheless, service was slow. Now, that doesn’t take away from quality of the food but it’s definitely hinders your experience some. Which the said, the tapas style menu items are perfect for someone who like to taste and try different foods. The drinks were great and vibe was on point.. plus, it’s patio is great for afternoon eating and people watching in DC.

With this place you’re definitely paying for the ambiance. The vibe is great! This wine bar/restaurant specializes in tapas. The plates are very small and the food doesn’t taste good. It’s very bland and overpriced. The sangria was ok. I was disappointed honestly. My meal was costly and I was so hungry. Pictured below is the broccolini and beef empanadas. It wasn’t good.

Virtually everything was a 10/10. The server had super helpful recommendations. The drinks were creative and delicious— especially the guns and rose and bourbon spice. All the tapas we ordered was delicious and the bread was wonderful. Fun atmosphere but still family friendly.

We had a reservation but still had to wait about 20 minutes. The place is hopping with a party atmosphere. The servers where good and food excellent - we had the prawns, cheese board, skirt steak, and bronzino and everything was done well. Chocolate cake dessert was amazing. My only complaint would be that everything was bought out at the same time, felt a little rushed. My usual tapas experience is that they stagger the food a little so you can enjoy each dish.
