MinguzOctober 31, 2012This is probably one of the best restaurants in the city. REALLY expensive. whenever you get there do not get fooled. don't let the waiter keep pouring wine. They will open bottles non stop
Romy Alyssa MadisonMarch 24, 2017Paella was very good, but come on, the whole menu is extremely expensive for what it is. Staff doesnt speak english, but they try which is appreciated. Surprised dessert, great apero.

Apartment BarcelonaNovember 24, 2014If you’re in the mood for authentic tasty seafood, there’s Botafumiero, one of the city’s most famous seafood restaurants
Shawn PonchaMay 26, 2019Excellent restaurant for seafood lovers. Be careful not to overorder as the platters are huge!
Fabio CamargoApril 8, 2017One of the best paellas in Barcelona! Expensive, but you get what you pay!- Salvatore CanforaJune 21, 2016Quality seafood in an old-fashion enviroment. Prices are above the average
Ryo TadaAugust 17, 2014the taste was lovely, but not suitable for the price. You can find better taste than this in cheaper price in Barcelona. The place was beautiful, and there are complimentary desert after the meal.

Jeremy BassApril 30, 2018Sit at the bar (kind of a Spanish version of an oyster bar) and have a late lunch.
Matt PaulJune 21, 2016Excelent service and old world ambience. Note: this restaurant is more expensive than indicated. €€€ would be a better rating. Enjoy!
RRRJanuary 16, 2024So so so so so good! We ordered (PA I APERITIU, AIGUA SENSE GAS, SALPICO DE LLAMaNTOL, CLOïSSES MARINERA) 😋
Andrea GianfredaSeptember 20, 2010A bit expensive, but if you want the best fish in the city you have to go here: nice ambience, excellent food also on the counter!
Los Angeles ChinatownDecember 29, 2015Be aware of the mid price rating because it's quite expensive. We had a seafood paella for 2 ppl and it was 60 euros plus they charge 9 euros for water and another 5 euros for olives we didn't order.

"Very elegant, decadent. A worthy structure for the holy family to be memorialized. Worth seeing for the architecture alone. The self-guided tour is recommended. Don’t miss the underground museum."
