TOP 10 RESTAURANTS IN BARCELONA! | Barcelona Food Guide!

Hello friends! Barcelona, Spain is truly one of the world's greatest food cities. We spent a week in Barcelona eating all kinds of delicious Spanish and Catalan food. We thought we'd share a compilation of the 10 places that we enjoyed the most during our visit. From paella, churros, seafood, pintxos, and more it's got a place for every palate so watch on to find out more!
This is not an authoritative guide but merely a reflection of our own experience but we do hope this video may still be useful to you. Local knowledge is still the best knowledge!

Just a note that Juanito (the iconic old waiter at Pinotxo Bar) passed away recently and Pinotxo Bar is under new ownership now 😭 I think the new owners are keeping the same vibes but if you're looking for another place in La Boqueria then El Quim de La Boqueria is apparently really great too!

    Your video perfectly reflects the difference between eating in Spain and the US. In Spain, eating is an event, pleasurable, fun, experimental, social, lengthy. In the states it's a rushed evil chore, counting calories, searching for gluten free, no carb, lactose, allergies, trans fats. Most frequent phrase heard at a US table, "I really shouldn't have that." We have really got it all backwards, You did a great job narrowing down the list to just these when there are literally hundreds of fantastic places and the humble ones are often the best. PLUS, the exchange rate is very favorable. At La Barca Del Salamanca, we had complimentary olives, tapas of fried peppers, potato bravas, cod fritters and Gazpacho. We were expecting high-end US portions and this easily could feed four. The Mrs got a "salad" (enough for two) with seafood and I got the seafood Paella. THEN the waiter brought over several moist cakes, grappa and coffee! $94!!!!! (I even tipped €10) We left at 10:15 and at least 100 were waiting outside munching on restaurant provided tapas and sipping wine. Quimet i Quimet is a fantastic place for tapas.

    Went to la pallaresa, on 7/31/ 22. They were closed for the month of July. Came back on 8/1. Meh… underwhelming. Churros were good, they did not have the lady fingers since they first came back from vacation. Also, FYI, the market and much of everything else is closed on Sundays! Off to Valencia…

    This is my city and unfortunately, I feel obligated to warn potential tourists that they are better off going somewhere else. Robberies, especially at night are now the norm, and use of violence during theft is on the rise. I've even seen one youtuber, Dr. Cellini - do a video on it as he was attacked and robbed in Barcelona. I'm a local and they tried to rob me once already and I've also seen the aftermath of many muggings even if I didn't see the act itself - heartbreaking to see a tourist when they have just realized someone has stolen their bag from their seat or snapped a phone off their hands etc. Not only that but the corrupt Spanish government refuses to change masks in public transport from mandatory to recommended because some close friends of the government started mask businesses. This means there is also friction on the metro and bus with people attacking others, including tourists, if they don't have masks on...most people I know come from countries where masks are history so when they arrive here they have no idea and don't have masks with them. In sum, go somewhere else, it's not the best time to visit Spain.

    En España comemos muy mal. Sirven un plato llamado tapa que es ridículamente pobre y de dudosa cantidad y calidad. Aquí en Brasil todos los bares sirven platos bien servidos de quesos, fiambres, snacks y diferentes tipos de carne cortada al estilo francés, que llamamos snacks para acompañar una buena bebida o cervezas a precios populares, a los turistas les encanta nuestra comida de cantina, Bares y restaurantes. Aquí tenemos abundancia en las bandejas que servimos. Mucho (abundancia) en lo que comemos en Brasil.
