Saw this in the wallpaper guide so knew worth getting here in time to get a place by the bar. Worked our way through about 10+ little dishes. You can choose either 'plates' or 'sandwiches' which are small rounds of bread piled with goodies, which ata a push can be shared between 2. A great opportnity to try all sorts,... More

3 minutes walk from parallel metro, not difficult to find. arrive at 10pm, no wait, just squeeze through the people to order. There are variety of seafood on menu, a must for seafood lover (sea urchin, tuna belly, salmon, scallop, prawn, swordfish... ...) Tried most seafood on menu, recommend scallop with red pepper/sweet egg and sea urchin with tuna belly.... More

We ventured in search of this place after a tour in the neighborhood of Poble Sec. Tiny tapas bar, frequented mostly by local. Good variety of tapas and montaditos. Service a little rushed, but it could not be otherwise given the amount of people in a confined space! You eat standing up! The house beer is very good!

This place got great reviews from TA, got recommended in a travel guide and was also visited by Anthony Bourdain. Since it was only a few minutes by foot from our Hotel we decided to have some Tapas here. And from all the restaurants in the world we visited this is one of the very very best! They serve gourmet... More

The place is small and gets filled up quickly, so go early right when it opens (around 8 I think). Everything we tried was amazing!

This is a great little traditional place with fresh tapas and friendly staff. You get a great vibe of local Barcelonin life! Not sure if it should be rated as Barcelona's 3rd Best restaurant though..

As the place gets quite packed a suggestion would be to make a list of the tapas you would like to have prior to coming to the restaurant. It helps a lot. Everything on the menu is good, so be brave and try everything.

Strolling through the streets of Barcelona, whether it be close to the Ramblas or nearer to Avenida Parallel, it can be hard to find an authentic and reasonably priced food option. I stumbled upon this place after walking around looking for a lunch spot - and I had to wait outside for about 20 min. No problem - its not... More

In Barcelona there are so many restaurants and bars that the fact that Quimet i Quimet stands out for locals and tourists has a reason. Yes is a small winery cellar (and shop!) but with a great environment, friendly people and great products. The Quimet family (4th generation already) offers great tapas, assorted plates (cheese, meat or fish), the best... More
