Barcelona Tapas Bar Restaurant in Berlin

Nice tapas bar right at Checkpoint Charlie. There were ten of us and we were served relatively quickly, the service was friendly, one person only spoke Spanish, which sometimes made it more difficult to ask questions. I personally didn't find the Creme Catalana perfect, but it's certainly a matter of taste. The aioli, on the other hand, was perfect, but here too the bread could have been a little more unusual/homemade. All in all, a good tapas shop on Friedrichstrasse at Checkpoint Charlie.

The food was tasty, the staff were friendly, even if we sometimes got something different than what we ordered...

I was in a barcelona tapas bar it is a restaurant where you can eat Latin and Spanish food. food taste very delicious and the costumer were friendly. (anyways i give the restaurant 5 stars because i know all of them. they are my family.)

Restaurant with a very good welcome They are at the service of the customer. Good quality of dishes

We enjoyed the tapas. Very tasty 😋 Good wine selection👍

Went for dinner two weekends in a row in October. Food tastes excellent with good price and performance ratio. What I particularly liked is that you can get dinner quite late (around 10 p.m.). One star deducted for the service. Both paint with little enthusiasm and are not courteous. The second time we were a large group and it was a bit chaotic. Overall, however, we had a lovely evening there!

Despite a reservation we got a cramped and bad table. The service wasn't particularly friendly and we had to wait an hour for the food, which didn't even arrive correctly. Unfortunately not that great as I would have expected more for the price. But the food itself tasted good.

The tapas was not that tasty. We were quite disappointed…

We were excited about this restaurant because of the reviews. We wanted to change up our experience. So we made a reservation online and showed up a few minutes before. When we walked into the empty restaurant, we were asked if we had a reservation we said yes and then met with annoyance. Only 1 other party came in during the 1.5 hrs we were there. The food and dessert was so so. The food was not anything spectacular. The creme brulee was split and the top was burned. Not really worth the cost. The sangria came with ice. We took the Ubahn which was convenient.

The food was delicious, everything came fresh and warm at the same time, nice wine list. Price-performance was reasonable. Compared to other Berlin restaurants, the service was not so friendly but rather more reserved. An order was not recorded correctly. The request for a card recommendation was not responded to. Maybe due to a language barrier? All in all, a nice tapas bar, but nothing extraordinary. Thank you.

Unfortunately, the waiting times were extremely long and the service needs to be improved. The tapas were quite ok.

This Spanish restaurant is located right in the tourist center of Berlin and impresses with its wide range of tapas. There are few seats outside, but there is a large indoor area that can also accommodate larger groups. In my opinion, the card leaves little to be desired. The drinks menu also impresses with a large selection of cocktails and their non-alcoholic versions. Considering the location of the location, the prices are more than fair and the price-performance ratio is definitely right. However, the service leaves something to be desired. I have already experienced several times that at the beginning of the visit the employees come to the place much more often and ask about their personal well-being. Once you have eaten your meal, it seems as if no one feels responsible for the individual well-being of the guests anymore. All in all, a location that you can definitely visit when visiting Checkpoint Charlie. However, I would recommend other tapas restaurants in less central locations to Berliners.

Super delicious tapas platter for two people! Highly recommended! Followed by crème brulee for dessert. Attentive and friendly service staff. We'd love to come back :-)

DANGER! DANGER! We should have paid attention when we were told there were no pickled anchovies. You can't freeze them. We couldn't make paella any worse. If you ask for vinegar for the micro salad, you will be given a ready-made vinaigrette. The waiter walks in street shoes on the benches to replace the candles on the wall. But the kicker is: Diarrhea after paella!!! And all 3 people. Because all three of us only ate the paella.

We were in the mood for tapas and chose this restaurant. The reservation went online without any problems. We were there at 7:30 p.m. and ordered drinks immediately. They came quickly and so did our food. The tapas were freshly prepared and everything tasted great. My highlight were the chipirones, we had to order another portion of them! Very nice service and nice atmosphere. We'll definitely be back!

We were there with a larger group and waited over 2 hours for the food. When we left the restaurant after three hours, two people from the group still hadn't eaten. Drinks came after about 45 minutes. Chaos and errors in billing. Food tastes good, but the staff is nice but unfortunately totally overwhelmed. Unfortunately not recommended.

Loved the atmosphere and the tapas here. The boquerones fritos and croquetas were especially good. The servers are very friendly but service is a bit on the slow side. Relax and enjoy.

Very good tapas bar. Great service, delicious cocktails

Save yourself the bother, go to Mundos around the corner. Much nicer food service and atmosphere for tapas

Without a doubt, the bar staff and service are the best.

Went there for a birthday, the table by the window was beautifully decorated, the food was delicious, the service friendliness could be improved

Amazing locale providing a cozy and fancy atmosphere. The food quality could be improved.

Food that was edible was ok but the service was not good enough. An uninterested welcome. Slow service and when one the croquettes was completely inedible the waitress just shrugged and took the plate away. No concern and no apology. The decision to leave asap was quite easy. I would not recommend this if you want to feel like a customer and not an inconvenience.

Siamo stati in questo ristorante con la famiglia. Nel menù esposto fuori dal locale era presente anche un menù per bambini, ma poi, una volta seduti al tavolo, ci è stato detto che non lo avevano. Abbiamo mangiato abbastanza bene, anche se i prezzi sono abbastanza alti. Sia nel menù esposto fuori che in quello che ci hanno dato dentro non era presente l'acqua. Abbiamo preso 3 bottiglie di acqua da 0,75 e ce le hanno fatte pagare 6,90 € l'una (20,70 € totali). Quando ho chiesto spiegazioni mi hanno riso in faccia dicendo che l'acqua veniva dalla Spagna. La birra invece era a 3,80 € e anche quella veniva dalla Spagna. Siamo stati purtroppo trattati come turisti da spennare... Non lo consiglio e non ci tornerò.

The food was good, but they only list half of the price on the menu and then charge you twice at checkout. My partner and I had the paella and croquettes, which said 19.5€ and ~6€ on the menu, and three beers, however we left with a 60€ bill. To clarify further, the menu mentions something about “two people” for the paella but it doesn’t say anything alluding to it charging 19.5€ per person, and it definitely didn’t say anything about that for the croquettes either.

We ordered a number of tapas to try and they were all delicious! I had the Mango Time cocktail and it was really refreshing.

As described in other reviews, the tapas are great - best manchego I have had outside of Spain in a long time - but the service leaves a lot to be desired. The main dishes are also quite tasteless. After ordering a bottle of wine, I saw the waitress walk to the fridge, grab an open bottle, pull the push down cork, and push a real cork embedded into a corkscrew as if to show the bottle had just been opened. This is simply borderline fraudulent. We then had a discussion about it where she told me they don’t have that bottle, before the barman actually brought one to me and opened it in front of us. I live around the corner, I spoke Spanish to the staff and was still treated like a gullible tourist because this is what is expected. This establishment deserves better.

Really friendly staff, good prices, nice atmosphere to watch euros too. The espresso martini was great. Croquetas were the highlight, super crunchy and melty

We had a great time. The food, the sangria, the service, everything was good. We watched the Eurocup game Spain versus Georgia and we had a great time. The atmosphere was great. We strongly recommend Barcelona Tapas Restaurant in Berlin.

Great place to kick back and have some good spanish tapas

The platter of various tapas was very tasty and even though we were able to choose from the many drinks, the waiter came back several times and asked whether the decision had been made. Very good service!

Had a lovely evening with delicious food

It wasn't as good as on our first visit, if you like it it's ok, it's not mine anymore.

Small bar, quite noisy, but delicious tapas

A super cool place. The food, the atmosphere, the spectacular attention, I recommend it.

Unfortunately I can't share the very positive reviews. The staff was friendly, even if not everyone spoke German. However, charging just under 10 euros for 10 thin slices of ordinary cheese (60g at most) is more than audacious. The taste was OK, but nothing special.

Vi var en større flok afsted. Stedet vidste på forhånd hvor mange vi var og menuen var bestemt på foran. De havde overhovedet ikke styr på servering. Maden kom alt for sent. Fx måtter 4-5 personer dele en kroket. Der var flere personale tilstede men kun en tjener serverede til 40 mand. Drikkevarer kom heller ikke som lovet. Fyldt med fejl.. beklager men ikke en god oplevelse.

The Barcelona puts me in a good mood, especially after renovation and reopening. Pleasantly relaxed service, lively atmosphere with the music and the Latin American community singing and dancing along ❤️

Very good, extremely tasty: wine, paella, tapas. Atmosphere is 12 out of 10.

The best of the best Das west atmosphere super nette service Neteen leuten bansing

Super friendly, relaxed and familiar place... It feels like a meeting of friends 🧡.

Meine absolute lieblings Tapasbar. Delicious food, spectacular attention.

A place with a super atmosphere and super service and excellent food, happy to repeat the experience 😃

Paella was terrible. Gave us some stomach issues, but no puking. Be careful…

Valencia paella was a bit salty but the tortilla was fine. Service was just OK. Inside the restaurant might be noisy with loud music and passionate customers.

Ich hatte kürzlich das Vergnügen, das BarceLona in der Friedrichstraße in Berlin zu besuchen. Hier ist meine ehrliche Einschätzung: Bedienung: Leider war die weibliche Bedienung nicht optimal. Während des Gesprächs schien sie oft in die Luft zu schauen, anstatt aufmerksam auf die Gäste zu achten. Das hat den Gesamteindruck beeinträchtigt. Authentizität: Als Liebhaber spanischer Küche hatte ich hohe Erwartungen an ein authentisches spanisches Lokal. Obwohl das Ambiente im Barce Lona spanisch inspiriert ist, hätte ich mir dennoch mehr spanische Elemente gewünscht. Essen: Das Essen war gut, aber nicht außergewöhnlich. Die von uns bestellten Tapas waren solide, aber ich habe schon bessere genossen. Interessanterweise habe ich vor Kurzem das Mundo in Mariendorf besucht, in dem die Tapas schöner serviert wurden und auch noch besser waren. Das hat mich etwas überrascht. Insgesamt würde ich dem Barce Lona 3 von 5 Sternen geben. Es hat Potenzial, aber es gibt Raum für Verbesserungen, insbesondere in Bezug auf die Authentizität und den Service. Peter B, Mariendorf

I had the paella for the first time and it was amazing. The fusion of fish and meat like chicken was new to me, but it didn't disappoint! The service was so sociable and friendly. Also have to mention that the dessert ist a must eat here.

It is a very nice place to share, the food is delicious and of very good quality. The service is one of the best in a restaurant in Berlin.

Ok food, expensive. No complaints but meh. I'd rather choose a bit less fancy place for food that's at least as good and cheaper. Not my style.

Very nice restaurant, the tapas were great. Unfortunately, the music is extremely loud and the waitresses are very friendly, but a bit inattentive, you usually have to ask twice. But I'll definitely be back!

The Spanish omelette didn't taste like an omelet at all, the croquettes were good, they are the first ones with good flavor that I have tried in Germany and the olives were good but perhaps they came with a lot of oil.

Unfortunately I can only give this 3 out of 5 stars. Unfortunately the prices are far too expensive. That's why the food tastes good. A paela costs €39 and a large still water costs €7

It is very cozy and attractive and very dynamic to feel good 💯 x 💯,

TOP! Evelyn anticipates your every wish. Always happy 🥰

The Barcelona Restaurant is a cozy eatery in the center of the city that specializes in delicious Spanish cuisine. The relaxed and welcoming atmosphere makes it the ideal place for an evening with friends or a romantic date. The diverse menu offers a selection of tapas, paellas and other traditional Spanish dishes. The freshly prepared seafood tapas and homemade sangrias are particularly recommended. The friendly and attentive staff make you feel comfortable, and the fair prices make the restaurant a popular choice. Due to high demand, reservations are recommended. Overall, the Barcelona restaurant is the perfect address for all lovers of Spanish cuisine who want to enjoy an authentic and tasty meal in a pleasant atmosphere.

I received a very warm welcome, it was like I was on vacation 🧳 The warmth could not be surpassed, the competence of the staff and the excellent food.

The music fits perfectly. The service is second to none and the food is phenomenal.

one of the best octopus dishes ive had see you soon again

Good food, great fish soup, when we were there the atmosphere was relaxed and happy, which made the stay very entertaining. Typical, classic tapas

The hostess was quite rude and not welcoming! The atmosphere felt a lot like a ghost town but the worst part was the food. Tasteless, small portions and nowhere near Spanish cuisine! Never visiting again.

We enjoyed our time in this place - great tapas variety and amazing sangria. However, the density of tables is a bit too much, basically there's no space between them, going to toilet or having a bag larger than tiny can become an adventure

Es war an sich sehr gut gefüllt aber das wir mit unserer Kellnerinnen über andere von ihr nicht gut beherrschte Sprache reden mussten das Essen in so schlechten Abständen ankam heißt mein Bruder erhält sein Essen 1h später ich einen Teil meines Essens außerdem ist alles sehr teuer und es wird wenig erklärt das war mein erstes und mein letztes Mal hier.😡

Its a nice place, food was nice. I ordered warm Tapas: Octopus, Calamari and Sardellen. Service was not so good, they looked very tired, demotivated. We were waiting for more than an hour for our food. It took also a while to get our desserts and they forgot to bring us one. To speak German and English was also not so easy.

Food very good, Atmosphere good, Service can be much better

What happened to the former 'Barcelona'?! The best thing about tonight was the wine. The rest was just disappointing. The service was mediocre friendly and made us feel like we were intruding. It was disorganized from the service to the kitchen, the neighboring tables sometimes waited up to 20 minutes until they received the menu cards. We received our tapas after over an hour and one dish was served incorrectly and two were completely forgotten. We didn't find an opportunity to complain, so after about 10 minutes my husband went to the waitress, who wrote it down on her note and after another 15 minutes we received the last 3 dishes. The chicken legs were served with the burnt side down. Overall, the food was not tasty and was really disappointing for us, who had visited the restaurant several times ago. When we wanted to pay, the waitress told us that we could only pay in cash. Strangely, we received a receipt that said interim bill and when paying at the bar we saw that the card terminal was intact. We will not be visiting the restaurant again for the time being and unfortunately cannot recommend it. It's a shame, we used to love going there often.

La comida muy buena, pero siempre el Reggaeton de fondo y a un volumen tan alto se carga todo el ambiente, apenas se puede hablar. Se supone que es un restaurante, no una discoteca. Quise llevar a una persona para probar comida española y desde el minuto uno deseaba irse por la música. Una pena.

Slow service initially on arrival waited 20 mins gor a menu and a further 10 for our drinks Food was nice but not that hot Language barrier was not a problem

The food was delicious and the loud Spanish music is a vibe. One star deduction because the service could still be improved. Orders take a little longer, but all the staff are very friendly. Would recommend - they also have vegan tapas options :)

Unfortunately we were not informed that the restaurant has a Christmas party on Friday and therefore closes at 8.30 p.m. our reserve. was for 7 p.m Birthday party....... information only received on site...... then switched to Mundo....... I can only recommend.

The food and ambience were amazing but the service was just there. The waiter really ignored us for the longest time.

The food was good portions are also in a good size but the service wasn't really good. It took the food a lot of time to come, we waited over an hour.

Cozy and warm spanish tapas bar. Great atmosphere, welcoming staff and amazing food.

Es hat lange gedauert bist die Essenswünsche aufgenommen wurden und es wurde auch ein Essen komplett vergessen. Was kam war aber sehr lecker und geschmackvoll. Die Preise angemessen

Sehr angenehme Atmosphäre, Tapas war lecker

Service was initially good, but towards the end of the meal became quite poor. I asked for a coffee with cream three times with no luck. When I said cancel the coffee and bring the bill, the bill & the coffee arrived - but no cream. When I complained I was told they had no cream - this is a restaurant that sells cream-based desserts, so I guess they must buy those in, not make them in house. The waitress brought hot milk, which was acceptable, but it would have been better to do that at the beginning, rather that just ignore my request. Other than that the place is OK. The baby squid in particular was excellent.

Gemütlich.Super Essen und tolle Bedienung 😋👍

Wir sind nach langer Pandemiepause mal wieder da hin, es war wieder schön. Die Wirtsleute dort sind freundlich, aufmerksam und haben gute Laune. Das Ambiente ist nett. Es gibt tolles Eseen, Tapas warm und kalt. Tolle Getränke. Die Preise sind etwas teurer, liegt wohl auch an der Lage, ist aber ok.

It was a nice place to have dinner. They are open till late, so also if you are a late eater, this restaurant is not a problem. The wine was good and the food was amazing. For sure recommend the place.

Ich bin mal gerne in Berlin unterwegs und das Barcelona ist einfach eine Perle für mich und meine Freundinnen. Dort stimmt alles, anfangen vom Esssen, Service bis hin zu Getränke/Cocktails und Ambiente

Sehr lecker Schöne Atmosphäre Service sehr nett

Bin nach der Arbeit noch zum Barcelona Tapasbar gefahren um einen Freund zu treffen. Sehr schönes Ambiente verbunden mit leckeren spanischen Tapas. Haben eine große Tapasvariation mit Seranoschinken, patatas bravas, champigions, Pimentes de padron, Chorizo und einen Jamon iberico gegessen und zu Trinken haben wir Jamaica Mule bekommen mit Rum aus Jamaica. Der Service ist sehr herzlich und lieb. Danke für den schönen Abend.

comida de poca calidad, la tortilla de patatas malísima, la atención pésima, nos hicieron esperar mucho, la música super alta casi no nos oiamos al hablar y por último nos cobraron de más, se lo dijimos a la camarera y nos dijo que habian cambiado los precios justo en ese momento ... en fin un cero pelotero.

Ubicación excelente, gran servicio tapas y cócteles de lujo.

Essen war definitiv nichts für Feinschmecker. Das hätte ich als Hobbyköchin zu Hause ohne große Mühe besser hinbekommen. Teilweise auch nicht das, was es unter dem Namen normal bei Tapas gibt. Preiswert war es auch nicht. Kurze Zeit später hatte ich kleinere Magen Darm Probleme. Würde ich leider nicht weiterempfehlen. Alkoholfreier Cocktail war immerhin sehr gut! Service war ganz gut auch wenn wir anfangs recht lange warten mussten. Es war halt auch sehr voll. Ambiente war nicht so überzeugend. Wir saßen auf Bänken ohne Rückenlehne - auf Dauer sehr unbequem. Außerdem war es sehr laut und stickig.

Tolle Atmosphäre, freundlicher Service und sehr leckeres Essen. Sehr gerne noch einmal 🤩

Schöne Tapas Bar. Leider laute Musik. Man musste sich teilweise anschreien.

food was pretty good but gosh the service went downhill so fast. it was the same night as the marathon and they probably overbooked because the place was packed and we didn't get any attention outdoors. paella took longer than worth and asking 5 different people and times to pay gets to be frustrating

Great atmosphere. Feels like Barcelona. Noisy in a good bar way. The service was very very poor. The staff was very busy having a good time with their friends then doing their job. If you are not in a rush and can take your time until the food gets there its ok.

After seeing all the great reviews we thought we’d try something different. We’d had paella in Spain and loved it. We weren’t in a hurry but we were hungry. We were seated anywhere and it appeared everyone around us was served before us, even those who came in after. The table beside us kept flagging her server down by flailing her hands (which was a bit dramatic and maybe a little rude?). Maybe that’s what’s needed because we were served last. First server didn’t even want to talk to us (we are English speaking). Finally got a drink. About 45 min later finally got our paella at same time as the other table beside us who came in maybe 20-30 min after us? We just felt slighted which is not what you want. We both agreed the Food was not good. This is my first bad review in forever. the staff was more interested in their own good time than making sure their customers were happy. Giving this one star because my daiquiri was good.

The food is ok, just ok. The staff could not care less about the customers. They were playing their music at a deafening level, singing at the top of their lungs behind the bar, having their own party and clearly annoying all the clientele. When we asked them to turn it down a bit so we could have a conversation across our own table, they said “no, move to a table at the back”. We were shocked at the answer and hadn’t we had placed our order already, we would have left. Two of the waiters told us that “she” (the manager) “is bad, there is nothing we can do, sorry”. We did move to a table at the back of the place but don’t ask me to recommend this place to anybody!

Very good food indeed. Generous servings - the two of us shared five tapas and didn’t quite finish all of them. The personnel was in good humour and friendly towards us and each other, which means a lot.

Waren mit Models dort haben sehr gut gespeist und es gab später noch ein Nachtisch alles perfekt

Très bon cocktail et service chaleureux. Merci

Cocktail juste magique à Berlin !

Gute abwechslungsreiche tapas. Kleine Weinkarte, dafür gute Tropfen aus Spanien im offenausschank. Am späteren Abend eher laut, wenn Musik aufgedreht wird. Angenehmes aufmerksames Personal.

This place was unreal located literally opposite Checkpoint Charlie, we sat outside and watched the world go by whilst enjoying some lovely Spanish infused food in Germany. Waiter was great made us feel welcome, had a very good knowledge of dishes on the menu. Food arrived fresh and tasty, tapas portion sizes are expected (small plates) we opted for Chicken Fajitas also in which was very generous portion sizes and tasty. Would highly recommend also they serve Erdingers properly (not skimmed lol).

Все було смачно! Обслуговування хороше! Рекомендую!

La comida rica, pero muy caro en relacion a las porciones. Igual que la cerveza, de lo mas caro que pagamos en Berlin. Los meseros hablan español hasta ahi… 22 euros por una porcion diminuta de tortilla, 3 buñuelos y 2 cervezas. No volveria

Leckere Tapas und sehr freundliches Personal. Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder.

مطعم كتير حلو ،اكل طيب بفضل اكل سمك هون كتير بنصح كل واحد يحب اكل سمك يجي لاهون دروري يجرب اكل الاسباني
