8/10The food was good and we appreciated it, but the starters are way to pricy even though they are quite enjoyable. The arroz negre was enjoyable and flavourful, but it lacked the characteristic soccarrat at the bottom of the pan a really important part of the dish, the shrimp was overcooked a bit. It was a fine meal, but it didn't deliver the experience I was searching for honestly.

9/10Took family who were visiting to our favourite place for paella after a bad experience in another restaurant last year. They were completely delighted with the paella here and agreed with us that is deliciously full of flavour.

7.5/10Good service but food is over priced even with the discount. 24 euro for 5 pieces of Octopus was ridiculous. In general the food could have been better

10/10Another fabulous dining experience here, with family this time. Had the thai pulled pork bao buns, garlic prawns and tomato bread, followed by the seafood paella for 3 this time. All food was freshly prepared, tasty and hot. Will always be back for our paellas. Great service here too, highly recommend.

3/10Initially we were warmly welcomed but just after we ordered appetizers and coffee the staff (two of them there) got pissed and started giving us strange looks. To us it felt racist and even though not, the staff were acting badly and laughing amongst themselves because perhaps we didn't order much. It was not mentioned anywhere (in fork or in Google or their website) that they will behave well only if customers order above X amount (main courses as mandatory). Had we known this earlier we would have never been to this place to get mistreated. To top it all, they marked us "no show" on fork app which was baffling but thankfully we had payment proofs. I recommend this restaurant to specifically mention that they want customers to order main courses compulsorily and to state the minimum amount they expect so their staff can put a smile otherwise be prepared to be disrespected. Very sad and bad experience altogether.

10/10Yet another great dining experience had here. The menu has changed a little since our last visit, but they still have the bao buns, albiet different ingredients used, the thai pork were our favourites, as the crispy squid were a bit too salty. We are never let down with the paella here though and it is our go to restaurant in Barcelona for this as it is always piping hot, moist and full of great flavour. The staff here are also always really good. Will be back for more and highly recommend if you are in the Born area at any time.

8.5/10The fork reduction was very helpful iduring this meal: appetizers, main dish and desserts where quite good and waiter proposed chicken nuggets with fries for the kids ( not on menu) which was perfect: highly recommend it if you can afford it.

9.5/10We had a delicious meal last night. The service was quick and friendly and our waiter provided good recommendations. We had a number of tapas and probably ordered too many because we wanted to try it all ????. The potato and egg dish was excellent as was the Swiss cheese flowers. We also enjoyed the prawns and Bao Buns. The tapioca crusted cheese was a bit bland for our taste. Overall it was a wonderful dinner and we will return

10/10If you where not there yet, give it a try!! Its my favourite Restaurant in el Born. Food always super delicious and the service is super fast. Location looks nice too. Its nice but not toooo fancy (7/10 fancy) so it could be perfect for a first date.
