Daniel: So much more than a market stall: amazing baby squid with young vegetables, grilled asparagus, fresh mussels, all at reasonable prices for quality food and speedy service.
Daniel Brugal: The huevos fritos con chipironcitos (fried eggs with baby squid) is hands down, the most delicious egg dish I have ever had! Order it and you will not be disappointed. Believe the hype
Rita Baltazar: All the menu is amazing! Go for the baby squids with egg, patatas bravas, the mussels are also great and if you have really hungry go for the oxtail. Prepare to wait but Señor Quim don't let you down.

JJ: Top picks: Padrones (green peppers), Langostinos, Solomillos, mini hamburguesa and Chipirones(squid). All awesome!
Paul Harrison: Sit at the counter is the cajones, awesome for Barca people watching. No need to Q for the counter, just hover-and-grab. Everything was great but the baby squid amazing. Wash down with Torres rosado
Fatima Al Hashimi: Good stuff. Difficult to find a seat during peak hours, but when you do it's worth it. Tenderloin montadito, prawn skewers, baby squids & the homemade creme caramel are good. Excellent cortado.

Felix Shpilman: This place is amazing. Things to get: Rabbit Ribs, Skirt Beef, meat and potato ball bomb, auberginie w honey and water, black pudding sausage. Deserts: catalan cream, pina colada. Skip the squid.
Noemi Stauffer: Very expensive and limited tapas offering, but quite good. I recommend the tomatoes, the ribs, and the lamb skewer. The stuffed squid is however not worth its €12.
Hannah Gormley: Delicious squid

Jose Miguel Serra: Bar d tapas y platillos: gambitas, morcilla, calamar, bombas, etc. Cova Fumada: el "secreto" d una rica cocina a base de una buena materia prima y el espiritu de la Barceloneta en su maxima expresion.
Shannon Low: Great down to earth tapas. Delicious calamari (grilled squid), la bomba, grilled artichoke. Bacalao and fried calamari rings looked good too.
Borja Uve: Muy risas en general y además la comida muy buena, me fui sin probar el calamar, pero fue lo que más me recomendaron, la próxima lo pediré seguro, lo malo es la cola que se forma para entrar.
