    Read the reviews and thought this would be worth a try. Lived up to the reviews and some. The food was excellent, and service even with one waiter down, was attentive and offered some suggestions for house specials of the day and wine pairings that were spot on. The paella is a must try and the hero ingredient changes regularly. We had duck, but the squid with squid ink rice looked and smelled amazing and the pork belly with potatoe purée was right on the money! Went back a second night before leaving Barcelona and it was better second time round Amazing little location and unassuming door that lead to some of the best food experiences of our travel, and the staff were grega

    A Memorable Meal at Amades Restobar While visiting Barcelona, our kayak tour guide recommended Amades Restobar—and I’m glad he did. The ox cheek paella I had was fantastic: rich, deeply flavorful, and perfectly cooked. I learned they rotate their paella offerings regularly, which speaks to the creativity of the kitchen—though I only had the pleasure of trying one, I’d gladly return to see what’s next. The low-temperature cod was another highlight—delicate, tender, and beautifully prepared. And don’t skip dessert: the dark beer sponge cake with cherries and coffee ice cream was exceptional. Thoughtful, flavorful, and satisfying—this meal was a true standout.

    The amount of paella a ten-year-old girl can eat and be hungry is 38 euros

    The beef creek is really good! It's soft and tender! I have already recommended to my friend. If I go to Barcelona again, I will definitely try this restaurant again😆

    The experience overall was Average. The overall ambiance was not attractive for fine dining. Although the place was very clean, the lighting was way too bright for fine dining in the evening. The food was good, though not exceptional. So While I don't really have that much bad to say about the restaurant it was not a what you would call a memorable dining experience.

    Paella deceptively small portion. The wine which was indicated as a dry one was semi-dry, and it was served at almost ambient temperature..making feel it sweeter even..

    4/10

    Menu was basic and aimed really at tourists, wine selection tiny and not good quality. Restaurant is in a tourist area so they don’t need to work hard for customers. We left as quickly as we could, which was a pity because the restaurant layout inside is quaint and the people who served us were friendly.

    2.5/10

    Food was WAY overpriced. Their ribeye steak tasted more like a $10 cheap steak I would have at a cheap dinner. The Paella had a weird taste to it. I would not recommend this place and am shocked at the good reviews. Has to be friends and family.

    Charming decor. Service is extremely friendly and efficient and the food is excellent. We’ve eaten at many excellent restaurants but have never had the unique flavors that Amades serves. All-around a great experience.

    A superb spot to unwind and indulge in delectable dishes. The diverse menu encourages sharing and the ambiance is delightfully cozy. Anna, our server, was exceptionally courteous and pleasant!

    9.5/10

    At first we weren’t sure about it since it appears small & there was some confusion with our reservation, but I’m really happy we stayed. We were looking for a place with local flavor, but wasn’t pretentious or overpriced. This fit the bill perfectly. Enjoyed the choice of appetizers, and loved the Paella. We also appreciated the fact that rather than just bring a set house red wine they made sure you had a chance to sample several local ones before making a choice. I definitely would recommend them as a great choice in the Gothic area.
