Definitely some of the best food we ate in Barcelona, also my favorite Sangria con Cava that I’ve tried. Highly recommend Madre Taberna Moderna if you are in the area of Familia Sageada. Not only is the food delicious, but the staff is excellent and the atmosphere is great.

Excellent casual but very well done tapas and small plate restaurant very near to La Sagrada Familia. Come here-do not go to any of the tourist traps on the same street. This place is a gem! Excellent, authentic tapas that is so delicious. Highly recommend!

We had the BEST evening at Madre!
We were a very last minute booking of 14 people but this didn't seem to bother the team at all, they were so welcoming and enthusiastic and our waiter Marco was incredible. He had us laughing from the offset and went above and beyond to make it a great experience.
He set aside the last four bottles of the wine we had ordered so they wouldn't run out, played my favourite song while serving us a round of house shots and gave us all complimentary truffles for dessert.
We could not have asked for a better final meal and we left with massive smiles on our faces (see photo for proof!) Thank you so much Marco and the rest of the team!!

Tapas here were excellent! Especially their coquettes. We stopped here after visiting the Sagrada Familia - it’s very close by and if you sit outside the views are brilliant. The only reason I am not giving it a 5 star review was that it took a while for them to seat us (even though there was no queue and plenty of seats they ignored us for a while) but once we did get seated service was quick.
Wonderful location right next to the Sagrada de Familia but more importantly great service and delicious good quality, local, typical spanish food.
We were hesitant due to not being able to see the menu online but this place us a gem hidden in plane sight!
Our waiter, Pedro m, really looked after us. His recommendation for the fried egg & ham dish was spot on and the chocolate cheescake for desert was to die for. We would definitely come again!
