gorgeous location and heard good reviews but food fell short by a lot and left disappointed. We had the ceviche and paella, ceviche lacked flavour and paella was incredibly salty where i could not continue eating. mojito was disgusting and just tasted like rum and water im so sorry, no mint at all and sugar would not dissolve and left sunk at the bottom. was really expecting more

Hands down, one of the best dining experiences we've had in Barcelona! The ambiance at Xiringuito Escribà is unmatched, right by the beach with a laid-back yet upscale vibe. Special thanks to our incredible server, Toki, who made the experience even more memorable. His expert navigation of the menu, thoughtful recommendations, and spot-on wine pairing elevated our evening. Every dish felt like a celebration of Mediterranean flavor. Highly recommend and will absolutely return!

Lovely place but was let down a little by the food and the waiter who forgot small details. We had paella for 4 which had clearly had a few minutes too long on the burners.

The first bite of my scrambled baby squid was literally spoon fed to me (that happened). Waiter was super friendly and spoke enough English to help us out. The food was delicious and the view was great

Food was very expensive for the quality of it. Paella was very salty and the price was per person, making it very expensive and not worth it. We paid 170€ for food that was not worth it! Service was not the best, they took about 15 mins to come to us and didn’t check on us once. When the receipt came, there was extra stuff that we didn’t get or order which they were able to take off because we noticed! On the way back to the hotel we also got robbed so not a good neighborhood or safe. Would not come back and would not recommend. Nothing about this was worth the trip.

Food arrived relatively fast, which was good. However, one has the feeling that every meal was already prepared.
