    The food was really good. The waiter or manager that took care of us was very friendly.

    Unfortunately, despite the many positive reviews here, we had a less-than-pleasant experience at L’Arrosseris Xativa Sant Antoni. The food was indeed very tasty, but despite our reservation, we were “kicked out” after exactly one hour. First, they brought us the bill right at the table even though our drink glasses were still full and we didn‘t ask for it. Then they pointedly seated the “new guests” who were supposed to take our table right next to ours at the bar and told them that this was their table and that they could sit there once we’d finished our drinks. Overall, we got the feeling that we weren’t welcome there unless we ordered an appetizer or dessert in addition to the paella. We definitely won’t be coming back because of the truly poor service. We might try the other locations, though.

    Nice food and very tasty seafood paella. Polite and nice waiter but he didn’t speak English. He was trying a lot though. In the inside area of the restaurant the smell of the fish was intense so we decided to seat outside.

    I love this restaurant and go every time i am in Barcelona, but the lighting is too bright and takes away from the atmosphere - I tell my friends - it has terrible lighting but great food LOL and i am happy to say, it doesn't disappoint LOL

    A delightfully old‑school paella. Some might call it “overcooked,” but I prefer to think of it as confidently committed to tradition. The ingredients were a bit on the firm side—let’s call it an “al dente surprise.” As for the service… if you arrive with low expectations, you’ll be perfectly satisfied.

    The three male clerks responded very well. I was kind to my children and had a good time. The squid ink paella was fragrant and the best, and there was also a large serving of mussels. I would like to recommend it when I come to Barcelona

    We were very disappointed in the paella. We had it at other places on our trip and it was much better.

    The place looks very turistic and so does the menu. If you looking for authentic paella experience you’d better seek elsewhere.

    Taste is good. However I did not expect that the big portion of anchovies means 4 (four) small filleted for 12.5 euros. I said that. The reply was that might be 6 (six). Even with that what is the price for the portion? Or anchovies are made with truffle and caviar? This is completely non acceptable.

    This is the second time happening - we book a table in The Fork with advance, the table and booking are CONFIRMED, we appear there and the staff is rude, unhelpful and unfriendly, this time AGAIN When we arrived at time of the booking they told us to turn back outside (with 36 degrees outside) and they say that put booking is inválida because they as restaurant did not CONFIRM IT. Each time I explained them that if they colaborate with The Fork and in our récords we clearly see a CONFIRMED BOOKING AND decires table, this is the rule and they insisted that our reservation is not existing blad blah blah. Will i must admit, the food is amazing but the personnel is so extremly rude and unfriendly that i cant actually believe this happens each time we visit there. On top of that, we use to go in 8 persons group- even if we have the valid booking, even doe they are always the same unfriendly

    I’ve had better paella kind of regret booking this as it was something recommended by our host maybe there is some kind of agreement or deal with hotels? I saw a few other reviewers say it was recommended by their hotel etc. Not sure, but it was just okay and over priced. The bread with garlic/tomato had you DIY to eat it lol. I felt like I could have gone to a store and made my own bread with having to build it myself.

    The black rice was bland. I prefer the other branch in Eixample.

    Super friendly staff and the food is great, with vegetarian options. I always go to Arrosseria when I have a group of friends visiting.
