i am a huge fan of tapas restaurants because I love the variety. This place absolutely did not disappoint! It was all wonderful. The servers were excellent - super friendly, very attentive, and really took the time to explain the menu and the offerings. We opted for the 40 euro (for 2) option which came with a meat and cheese board, an appetizer, then 8 different tapas chosen based on some questions they asked us initially. They even told us if we didn't like one of the tapas then no problem! They would switch it up. We did not end up doing this because they were all quite tasty. Also recommend their sangria and mojitos :). Definitely go here if you are in Barcelona! And make sure you bring cash as it's cash only. They also gave us a complementary shot of a delicious liqueur at the end.

Just go. Incredible evening! 40€ menu option is amazing and the array of snacks will satisfy any palette - they were kind enough to ask us for dietary restrictions or allergies right off the bat! We spent a few hours here sipping and snacking. Our server David was friendly, accommodating and very attentive.

If you’re in Barcelona, you’ll want to try some tapas. If you only have time to try tapas once, go here. We went on our first night of a five day trip and, although we had tapas elsewhere during our stay, this was the best. The premises are small, about 20 covers, and there’s no booking so you just have to turn up early. Fortunately we did. It’s cash only but for 40€ you can have the house selection for two – plentiful plates of delicious food (no fish or seafood) including Iberian ham and warm bread with tomato paste. Details like the warm bread – it’s often cold – mark this place down as the superior experience that it is. Our server, Kate, was delightful and helpful in equal measure. The wine list is short but appropriate. Highly recommended.

I found this due to looking for the best paella in Barca, however we didnt find this which was advertised. What we did find was an amazing little hidden gem. We was greeted by Oliver who explained how everything worked in the restaurant, he recommended the surprise meat tapas selection. This arrived in stages and was absolutely out of this world, very authentic dishes. We had a 2 x Estrella and 2 x Sangria, my husband said it is the best beer he has had in a long while and he enjoys a nice beer. It came in a frosted glass, which kept it ice cold. I would definitely recommend this restaurant for a nice quick bite or a meal with a loved one. The young man on the bar was also really helpful, explaining the dishes in detail so we knew what we was eating. We also asked for no goats cheese and no veg, purely meat tapas for us. Sorry I forgot to take a pic of the last meat one which has the main dishes on, we was just too excited.

My partner and I visited here last June, out of all the places we visited on our 2 week trip (Barcelona, Seville,Madrid) this was our favourite restaurant! We even came back for dinner a second time! Very busy, small, but a great atmosphere, and customer service-I'll get to the amazing food later. If you get there at rush hour and have to wait in a que they have little stools lined up for you to sit on, and they come and take your drinks order while you wait. My partner is vegetarian and lactose intolerant- we took a gamble and went for the surprise order (a starter, and 8 tapas) we explained my partners eating requirements and they went above and beyond, the chef even came out to double check what he could and couldn't eat (very reassuring when you have someone with intolerances/allergies). I think he took it as a personal challenge to make us something special. The food was AMAZING! During our 2nd visit we were expecting to have the same dishes as the first time (there's only so much you can do with certain requirements) but they still managed to give us new and different dishes. Each time we had 2 of the tapas dishes as meat (for me), which were equally nice. 100% recommend as a MUST if your visiting Barcelona! You'll be missing out if you don't go!

Before we entered the staff made sure we were aware that there was no seafood available and that they only accept cash in case this would cause any problems. I really like that they did this to make sure we don't run into this place with different expectations. We had a table pretty fast, the area is creatively designed with a Spanish esthetic. It's a very warm environment (not as in heat but as in cosy.) We picked menu option two. In this option they picked out the tapas for you. (there's an option to pick your own or send back ones you didn't like and get them replaced) The food was very tasty and fast at our table. The tapas were diverse so the flavor pallette wouldn't get boring. The staff is incredible. They made the place feel like home in a way (homey) . They were very understanding and took the time to explain everything. The staff works with a smile on their face and a happy spirit. Our waiter was César.

We went here after reading trip adviser and were not disappointed. We went first to their venue which only serves people in 2s and they sent us around the corner to the larger site. Although its not much bigger lol. The food is amazing good options and prices set meals are either 15 20 or 40 euros. We did the 20 and got 8 x 2 tapas to share between four all different each time. Drinks good prices too. By the time we left at 7.15pm on a Weds people were queuing to get in. Go there it's great!!

Just been after seeing the reviews.. the 5 star did not disappoint. Seated by our host for the evening Oliver, fully explained the menu choices. We opted for the 40 Euro- 2× starter tapas, then a meat and cheese board with breads, followed by a house selection of 8 tapas. Advised Oliver we had 1x vegetarian and this was catered for exceptionally well. Variety, authentic, friendly, beautiful food... everything we hoped for. A perfect evening. Thank you Oliver for your hospitality... we will be back

We were looking for a different Bodega Biarritz, but ended up at this one. This location was able to seat our party of 3 whereas the other had at least a 20+ minute wait. The workers told us it's the same restaurant, just a different location. The food was amazing. We allowed them to select our tapas after they asked us a few questions. We asked for more meat than veggies. The veggie tapas had mushrooms and eggplant which my husband doesn't like so I ended up eating those tapas and they turned out to be really tasty. The meat ones were good, too. The jamon iberico appetizer was really good!! Our server was very attentive and checked in on us just enough. We definitely recommend this place.

We had a really lovely night here food was amazing really different and super tasty. beautiful wine too and reasonably priced. We went early evening and managed to get seated straightaway but queues were starting to form when we left as the place is quite small. Our server was great (David) he asked about our food preferences and catered accordingly - all in all a great experience and would definitely recommend.

We went here based on trip advisor reviews. We had used trip advisor for all our other meals and they were amazing! This one unfortunately did not live up to the hype. The food was average at best and was served so fast that we had 8 dishes in half an hour! There are honestly much better places around for really tasty food with interesting ingredients. If you’re a fussy eater it’s probably great. We came away very disappointed

We had a delicious dinner last night here after being recommended from a friend and reading the other positive reviews on here. We had the 40 euro (for both of us) with a meat/cheese board and 8 tapas meals. They were all fantastic. We got there right on 5pm and walked straight in. Make sure you have cash! Service was great- David was very helpful and friendly. Thanks for a great dinner!

Had the surprise €50 euros per couple menu which consisted of appetisers, mixed meat & cheese plate & 16 different tapas dishes. My vegetarian sister, her hubby, myself & my partner (he doesn't eat pork or seafood) we're all accommodated in the choice of dishes & tapas that were served. Peke the waiter was very attentive, checking regularly to make sure we were enjoying all the dishes (if they serve a dish & you don't like it they will replace it with something else) we all enjoyed the food so much so that we didn't take any photos & just tucked in straight away. It's a lovely little restaurant with great food & staff & the sangria which we all had was very very good. If we return to Barcelona we will definitely come back to Bodega Biarritz xx

Delicious tapas! I’d been here before so knew you couldn’t book, the queue was around 20 min wait at 8pm ish. They take your drinks order in the queue so you can have a sangria whilst you wait. They seated us at the bar but moved us to a table when one was available which was great. You can’t select what dishes you’d like but you can say if there’s anything you do/don’t like and they bring out a selection. We had the menu option with the cheese and meat board so it was 8 tapas dishes plus meat, cheese and tomato bread. The shepherds pie and the mini paella were highlights.
