Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Found an absolute gem of a place in Barcelona! Very kind and accommodating to my big party. Food is incredible, I’d want to go back and try everything if I could, but from what I was able to try, everything was exceptional. My personal standout was the Braves de l’Os. I recommend this to anyone who wants a Spanish home cooking and restaurant experience, it’s a very unique and incredible blend of both!"
"Excellent meat. Simply amazing! Easy an cozy place. Top level food."
"We discovered this hidden gem as we were staying nearby. The staff were absolutely amazing, so friendly and welcoming. Our Spanish is not great but they explained everything on the menu to make sure we understood. The food was all homemade and so delicious and the prices were really fair as well. We liked it so much we went back again! (I recommend the patatas braves )"
"Best restaurant experience I had in Barcelona. Food was absolutely amazing, the only patatas bravas that were truly bravas (spicy), and the desserts were amazing. The lady was also very very kind, and helped us with picking the perfect beer among the many options available. She seemed to love working the restaurant."
"Very nice experience. I have to say it is the best restaurant I have ever been to in Spain, or more directly, in Europe!! The appetizers were amazing with local flavors, and the main dishes had very generous portions and also homemade taste. And we had a funny talk during the meal. Thank you for your hospitality! Looking forward to seeing you next time!!"
"Amazing friendly service from Anna serving delicious Argentinian food. Empanada, croquettes, entrañas, cheesecake, chocolate cake + red wines recommended by Anna are all excellent."
"Best dining experience in Barcelona! Great food. Fantastic dessert. Excellent hospitality. A true hidden gem."
"If I could give 10/5, I would. This was such an amazing experience! We loved the pizza, beef stew and home-made empanadas! And what a service! The lady was very kind, helpful, had sense of humour and amazing energy! If I ever go back to Barcelona, I will definitely go back, moltes gràcies!"
