BARcelona Restaurant Review

: If a restaurant is serving traditional Spanish-style tapas, it lends credibility to be located in a neighborhood where people come in both early (after work) and late (often on dates). Most nights a boisterous crowd stops by for a couple of drinks and nibbles like garlic shrimp or mussels in spicy tomato sauce. If they pay attention to their plates, they may be surprised by just how tasty the tapas can be. If they don't pay attention, however, they'll be surprised at how quickly the tab creeps up as the evening moves along. Bypass the Americanized lunch menu and the inevitable tortilla española in favor of paella, marinated anchovies and an assortment of sausages that’s downright seductive. Good Spanish wines help everything go down easily.
