Miguel Roberto MangligotMay 28, 2017Good food and ambiance. But a bit pricey and not much servings. However, the bars inside are a very good place to hang out if you want something posh.
Penny AveiroDecember 20, 2019We ate at La parada, ordered pasta, it was just meh! That's all I can say! Overrated! However the atmosphere was amazing! Definitely go to el nacional if u ever go to barcelona
Monica DazaMarch 8, 2015The best, you have different choices to eat, and mean while you can have a drink during you are waiting to get sitting!!
snoptik snoptikOctober 30, 2016Nice ambience with good food but staff lacks good manners. It may be because of high volume of customers and turnover but most make you uncomfortable when you ask for something.
Toni AngererApril 15, 2016Fantastic place, lots of food to choose. seriously recommend the dry aged meats
violetaJuly 11, 2015Nice to visit cause the place is fancy and great decorated. The food is not bad, but is not a big deal, price expensive according to the product.
Jonathan GriffithsApril 22, 2017My favourite evening venue for drinks. Very stylish place and great atmosphere.
Jennifer TorassaAugust 18, 2016Beautiful place with a vintage atmosphere: not really expensive, but staff and dishes are average. We've been in Mediterranean area for dinner: good wine but cocas not really tasty.
Malika AlMohaimeedNovember 1, 2018Worth visiting for the new experience, unique & different. the food is good as well.
- Maksym ZhukovNovember 18, 2016Good ambience. Lively and vibrant place. Food choice is great. Quality is good.
Daniela Ruiz RamirezSeptember 24, 2019We went to “La Taperia” inside El Nacional, the food and experience was amazing
Ahmed MongealMarch 4, 2018Great ambiance! Paella seafood was delicious, lovely staff and excellent service
IlyaJune 18, 2020They overcooked my steak nearly two steps from what I ordered. Apart from that the food was delicious.
Great vibe and beautiful interior with a variety of food proposals. Checked out brasserie, tapas and cocktails. All was good but the best is the manager that solves everything
Beautiful space, amazing food spots. The cocktails are brilliant!
Ezra ZaidSeptember 16, 2017Great for drinks and photos; food at La Braseria is good but not worth the wait, service or price.
CharlottesOctober 14, 2017Amazing space with extremely disappointing food. Oysters were the exception but avoid the tapas bar at all costs.
César Silva Barcelos Jr.August 5, 2016Beautiful place, nice food, excellent attendance. It is worth it!!!!!!
Abdullah Al-AwadhiJuly 13, 2016It's a nice experience, in the open tapa restaurant where the waiter shouts the tapa name and you quickly ask for it before anyone else. Unfortunately the tapas were average.
Stacy Bo BacyMay 27, 2019Aesthetically pleasing interior but the food is just alright and kind of expensive.
Ievyy MAugust 24, 2016Cava was good and actually that's all that was good here (in fish restaurant). Food is ordinary, prices are high, waiters are rude and not professional.
Barry GuettlerSeptember 22, 2017Great people watching and the foods not all that bad...service a bit lacking but worth a visit.
Malin MNovember 8, 2015Beautiful decoration! Perfect for a catch-up beer, or why not a Friday night dinner.
