Best dim sum and dumplings you will have in Barcelona. You will eat well, spend a little and drink the best beers in the world. Kitchen works non-stop (no siesta)! Read more

Oh god I love this restaurant so much. If you want to get in or not wait for ages, get there as early as possible. After 8pm you gotta queue for a table. You can ask for some sriracha (chilli sauce).

One of my favorite spot in Barcelona. Modern Chinese tapas. Food is super and service is super quick. Really nice and cozy interior. If you love Chinese food try Mosquitoes. 9/10

Vegetarian guotie (鍋貼, Chinese potstickers), soy braised bamboo shoots, cucumber ajat, vegetarian kimchi, smoked tofu (豆腐乾) and tapioca pearls in cold coconut milk.

The fried duck and the pork belly are my favorites. The food is very tasty the waiters are nice despite the crazy demand and the price is so affordable, all of these make this spot perfect..

Simply my favorite place to have dim-sums and pho in Barcelona! Cool people hanging there and huge selection of beers ( even without gluten ) no wifi only talking! Good price - I prefer lunch time

Great dumplings & quick service. Big surprise when bill came, €36 for 3 pax (water, wine, juice, 6 plates, 3 pork buns)! A gem amongst all the overpriced average food in BCN & definitely recommended!

You cant go wrong with anything. All is good. I recommend all the dumplings, try the ribs they are super delicious. The experience was great!

Amazing dumplings, tapped and bottled craft beer, as well as a great atmosphere. Be there at 1pm for lunch or 8pm for dinner or be ready to join the long waiting list.

Good atmosphere, friendly staff, reasonable prices. Dumpling dough a little thicker than I'm used to and the shrimp and eel were hard to recognize but the hargau were big and very tasty.

This is a great restaurant, i would certainly recommend. Good healthy food and friendly service. Unbelievable, the kitchen is like 3 m² and they fit 4 cooks in it :) Try the fresh&homemade dumplings!

Tiny place in a heart of el Born. Very affordable and tasty Asian tapas. Great to come for a quick bite with friends. Get there early, it gets packed really quickly!
Sebastian AtreidesOctober 17, 2016
If you want dumplings this is your place, that said, the duck it's amazingly good so try other things it worth it too
SonjaJuly 6, 2016
Delicious dumplings!! Great vegetarian and vegan options! Perfect for a quick bite! Popular with locals!!
Eigil MoeDecember 6, 2015
I usually wouldn't be looking for Asian food when I'm in Barcelona. This place is very popular and waiting for a table might take a long time. The food is tapas, Asian style. A lot to choose from.
Gui SeizDecember 7, 2017
Oh my word. Beef dumplings, pork & prawn dumplings, ChaoShaoBa (?) and the Duck #1 - order a cold beer or a crisp white wine. Do this and nothing else. #NoRagrets

Excellent Asian fusion tapas restaurant. Moderate (cheap) prices, delicious food, great value for money! The waitress Nerea is the best!! One of my favorite places in Barcelona.
Markus AarstadJune 6, 2016
Mosquito’s speciality is Chinese dumplings, but its tapas comprise a grab bag from all over the continent. They also serve excellent beers, some of which are brewed for the restaurant.
Tommie NordholmJune 20, 2013
Really good and affordable place. Good dumplings and a, for Barcelona, good variety of beer. Let the nice staff recommend the dinner and you will probably go home happy and full.
Alessandro LocatelliOctober 6, 2019
Dumpling with shrimps and the ones with pork & kimchi are very good. The food is a mix of viet and Chinese cuisine, with a selection of craft beers.

The food is excellent for the price and the service is fast ! Only one problem the place is very small and it's not possible to make reservation so you have to be patient :)
Bihter AkçayMarch 4, 2017
Amazing!!! My favorite place in Barcelona. Eat pork+shrimp dumpling for sure! Don't forget to order a mochi (strawberry is the best)! Enjoy!

Great xiao long bao (soup inside!), steamed pork buns and pork belly (big portion). Cold aubergine was ok but the steamed shrimp dumplings (hargau) were really bad - both texture and taste wise
Viktorija M.September 22, 2014
Bamboo is great here, like all the other dishes here also. Everything we tried was amazing. And prices are good to, perfect for tourist's not so big budget
David HopkinAugust 26, 2016
Amazing dim sum, great craft beer, just make sure you book so you don't look like an idiot standing in the door way desperate for a seat!
Kalvis GrudulsJune 27, 2018
Great selection of delicious dumplings and beers. Awesome sticky rice. Fast service - choosing from the vast selection of specialties took longer than preparing the food.
Lindy ChambersSeptember 7, 2018
Great price for a vast array of tasty dumplings, fish cakes, rice and more! Well worth waiting for a table! Fantastic Dim Sum!
Chantelle MarieSeptember 27, 2015
Noodle bowl with dumplings was huge and tasty. The wonton soup was one of the best I've ever had and the pepper beef was amazing. The pork ribs were ok but nothing special.
Lars GinnerupMarch 26, 2017
I have enjoyed almost all dishes. An easy place to go for quick dinner - even though there can be a bit of a queue at certain times.
Magali De HaesMarch 11, 2015
Very good tasting and fresh dim sum and other small portions of meat etc. Great value for your money +-4 euro/4-6 pieces of dim sum
Samuele VerziJanuary 27, 2016
I have waited for 30 minutes because we don't have it a reservations but it was worth it 55€ in two and we have eat a variety of plates fish
tozé mataMay 3, 2016
Be prepared to be amazed! So so good! Order wisely, we ordered more than enough food, 15€ will feed a person, drinks included.

Awesome dim sum - best I've had. Busy bustling restaurant - great atmosphere. Very busy, so get there early or expect a wait!
Veerle van PinxterenNovember 8, 2017
Fast service, helpful staff. We didn't have an idea of what to choose, so asked the staff and we didn't regret their recommendations!
Faiza FarooqMarch 18, 2016
The three Thai fish was really nice and the fish cakes. Tried the shrimp and vegetable dumplings, were were alright and not too amazing
Jack HaigJuly 22, 2016
Good dumplings along with bao buns. The buns didn't have as much filling as I would like, but still nice fluffy dough
Allison NiksichSeptember 26, 2023
Omg the dumplings! And the fried duck was awesome. Really good authentic Chinese
CaseyJanuary 23, 2017
The food here is terrible. Come here if you like expensive knock off dim sum. So unhappy at my fellow foursquare users...your fake high ratings are a disservice to the world.
Siim L.November 1, 2014
All dumplings are unbelievable! Also great crafted beers. Everything for very reasonable price!

Order artisan beer, vegetable guotie, mushrooms w butter, fried duck 1 (crispier one), steamed buns +Sriracha and you're set.
Tim MeyerMarch 24, 2018
Nice Food. Authentic! Always packed. Try to come early. Little Dirty but still very good.
Charly EliasOctober 2, 2014
Good food, prices ok but not sure it deserves such quantity of people waiting for a table. Waiters are incredibly busy so it's hard to have them with you 1 minute so they can explain you the menu
Arturo ReusstraatJune 24, 2013
Very friendly, also to children. We went with the pram and although there was no space they found a place for it. The monchis desert were amazing.
Gabriel CardonAugust 16, 2011
Any dumpling will do, they are all amazing. Nothing like the usual manufactured chinese food you usually get. This is home made Hong Kong specialties. Large variety of german beers.
David Roca @daroitNovember 13, 2016
Xiao long bao FTW!, duck 1 us really tasty, also the duck dumplings
David BernalJuly 6, 2015
Really good food! Dumplings are delicious! Really quick service, good selection of beers! And the waitresses are kinda cute!!
Olivia ChenJune 23, 2019
When you are sick of tapas, come here for modern, yummy, pan asian, Vietnamese based food!!!
Almog TlumakNovember 16, 2016
Cool place, cheap and homemade dim sum, large choice of beers. No wifi
Don McIntyreMarch 15, 2015
Fantastic little place, best tapas we found in the area. Weekends can be busy but tables become available quickly.
Attila KelényiJune 3, 2013
