| - I'm definitely a fan! I have mixed emotions about tapas, just because I've been programmed from a young age to appreciate large portions and having small plates with small portions (though plentiful) messes with my head :) I also think I end up spending more that way...but I think that speaks more to my issues than to Barcelona.
First off, I've passed this place a million times and never eaten here. It's conveniently located and easy to find in the Smith's shopping center. It's much bigger inside than I imagined! I mean, it's a modest size, but I pictured it much smaller. We went in the late afternoon on a Saturday and it wasn't too busy. We were seated and proceeded to order off the Happy Hour menu (half off). Also, by checking in on Yelp, you get a free drink! Awesome!
My friend and I ordered about 7 happy hour tapas...mac n cheese, escargot, some kind of chicken dish, eggplant dish, mushroom dish...and a few other things I can't remember. Everything was REALLY good! Drinkwise, we went with the sangria and mojitos. I think I enjoyed the mojito more, but both were pretty good.
All in all, I don't have any complaints. Our server was so nice and very attentive. This place had a very comfortable and homey feel to it. Everything seemed clean and in its place. I do have to reinforce...tapas DO add up, especially the way my friend and I eat, so I probably would not come at any other time slot besides happy hour which is 4-7p Sun-Thurs and 4-6p Fri-Sat.
