Sometimes, the best discoveries are right under your nose. For some time now, Bar Costa on Joaquin Costa street has been that intriguing spot I've passed countless times here in Barcelona, always admiring its immaculate decor. Well, the stars finally aligned, and it was a treat worth waiting for. From the moment we walked in, the welcome felt genuinely warm from the owner, and the service was nothing short of prompt and friendly. Bar Costa specializes in small dishes. We opted for four plates, and one was so utterly sublime – the seared scallops on smashed potatoes with hollandaise sauce – we ordered it twice! Their Costa Sangria was exactly to our liking. Usually, dessert is an afterthought, but we indulged. The white chocolate cake with maracuja sauce was a delightfully delicious finale. The ambiance is a masterpiece: warm decor with velvet curtains creates an intimate setting. The music adds to the mood without being a barrier to conversation. We will be back!

Elegant, but relaxed dining room at the back of the bar. Food delicious, but very small portions for the price. Menu a bit limited, could have more cheaper options as the tapas was over priced. 11/12euros for a tiny plate is expensive. We enjoyed the food and style of the bar.

They cancelled my booking without letting me know. Offered a bottle of cava to compensate. Then overcharged me in the bill. The interior is cosy, food is good but service is horrible.

Curioso lo tuyo, te pedimos disculpas y buscábamos lo antes posible otra mesa. Te ofrecimos como dices una botella de cava de cortesía. Lo que se te cobró de más era justo ya que si se consumió, pero por cortesía luego lo anulamos . Pero veo, estando en todo tu derecho hacer críticas en los medios que te interesan, repito en todo tu derecho. Pero resulta que si nosotros contestamos a lo igual a vosotros, se nos tacha de todo a un más. Por cortesía vienes a la casa de otro donde intentamos de la mejor manera posible atenderos, pero resulta al final os veis en el derecho de criticar para hacer el mayor daño posible. Cuando ni a si tuvisteis educación en la casa, mesa de otro.
