One of the best tapas bars in barcelona. The food and the vibes are both incredible, I always get the tortilla of the day and it never disappoints.

I had a craving for a tortilla and stumbled across this place. It was everything I wanted: intimate, local, with a cross between a grungy and new-age vibe. And the food? Absolutely amazing. I’m already planning to go back and try more dishes! The bartender was incredibly patient and kind, even helping me with my Spanish. I ordered the tortilla, a tomato salad, and an espresso. The total came to about €20.

The best tortilla of Barcelona (approved by my friends too) - simple decoration but incredible tastes. Clearly gonna come back

The best tortilla I have ever tried. We had the classic potato and onion and had to return a few days later to get more. The staff were friendly, drinks also good and music was modern and fun.

Whole experience was amazing - had the crab tortilla, artichoke and cheesecake, all of it was simply delicious! Highly recommend, will come back next time I’m in Barcelona

We had an incredible meal at El Pollo. The service was fantastic- friendly, helpful, and we asked for recommendations. The food was delicious. Absolutely start with a tortilla, we had one with crab and it was divine. The sea bass is also phenomenal. This is a no frills place with delicious food and really lovely people.

My favourite dinner place of my whole weekend in Barcelona. You need to book a table, it gets really busy at the bar so when booking a table ask for a real table. The food is so delicious, we had lamb and it was so tender and flavourful. We had some fish with clamps and dill which was my favourite, the fish is so delicate and paired with the dill it is divine. The tortilla is nice but it’s serve cold which is a shame. The cheesecake was unreal, you need to try it. The wine is good and the staff is so lovely. You need to go to this place when in Barcelona

Book and come here...do whatever you need to do...i've been in Europe 3 months, and this is easily the most culinary experience of the trip. One of the great culinary experiences I've had. And I have no idea how it happened. It's as if I put my hand in a bucket of water, and pulled out a whale, who spat out Jonah, who spat out Gordon Ramsay, who was polite and produced his best meal. The owner is surly, but in a completely attractive way. She knows her menu, produced daily and printed by the cash register...brilliant. Each dish was brilliant and slightly challenging and nothing like anything I'd had. Shades of familiarity, sure, but crafted and conceived with culinary skill and regional sensitivity. Just go here, let her order for you...ride the wave.

I really enjoyed my bar position (I was solo) in this funny tapas bar. My phone was charging most of the time so didn’t capture the dishes, but I liked everything and a shout out for the cheesecake 🍰

What an incredible experience and some really really outstanding food. Must have the cod fish, red mullet, clams and tuna. The staff were awesome and the chef also came out and said hello

Really great experience, casual setting with incredible fresh dishes. The tomato salad was particularly memorable, ducking (since I can’t use bad language here) amazing to be quite honest

I must have 10,000 photos of Bar El Pollo tortillas because they truly have the best tortillas in Barcelona. And patatas bravas. And pulpo. And the zamburiñas.

Comida muy rica, el lugar bien, las raciones bien, el servicio bien, solo e el baño de mujeres no había papel, y llegamos y ya no servían tortilla de patatas a pesar de que las tenían en la mesa, un poco cruel tener comida y no ofrecerla, nos quedamos con ganas de probarla estando a pocos metros de nosotros, tenían muy buena pinta, solo porque la hora de servirla era a las 6:30pm y nosotros estuvimos ahí 5:30, y las que tenían de antes ya se habían acabado, si pueden vayan antes de que cierren cocina o después de las 6:30pm si quieren probar las tortillas, nosotros solo nos quedamos con las ganas de comerlas.

No os voy a engañar, gran producto y buena cocina. El problema es cuando no sientes que todo está a la misma altura sin haber nada que suspender. Pedimos pan para el foie, era un trozo que solo requería de un par de rebanadas, el pan de muy buena calidad, masa madre, etc... pero era demasiado para ese plato. Al decirle a la camarera que solo queríamos un par de rebanadas, su respuesta "te pongo dos y te cobro las cuatro". Tengo más 50 años y soy de Barcelona, no me trates como a un guiri ni un chic@ sin experiencia. Estuvo desafortunada, era fácil poner dos y cobrar la mitad o regalarlo, entiendo que los platos llevan ya un margen interesante.

Local con el encanto de un bar auténtico de toda la vida. La comida buena y de calidad, alguna ración algo justa para el precio. Si eres turista te gustará, si eres local y buscas un lugar de tapeo, te puede parecer caro ya que hay pocas opciones básicas. A destacar el bonito en salsa de tomate. Vi falta de opciones más normales en la carta, por la hora que era no tenían tortilla de patatas y las opciones de la carta no tenían platos más asequibles que llenen, acabamos pidiendo bastante pan para mojar en las salsas, el pan esta bueno. Podéis ver el menú adjunto que no sabemos cada cuanto lo cambian ya que se imprime en papel de ticket. El trato de los camareros fue bueno, atentos y con una sonrisa, cosa que es de agradecer. Pasaré otro día antes a probar su tortilla. No pongo 5* por las opciones más batalleras que eché de menos

Está rico pero la carta es cortita, y justo ese día no tenían otro tipo de tortilla que la normal. La atención buena y bien de precio. Tendré que repetir otro día a ver si hay más suerte!

Fuimos por un top de tortillas de Barcelona y en efecto el surtido de tortilla es brutal de sabor y muy buena variedad: cuando fuimos tenían la normal, de cabrales y de pimientos del piquillo. El bar no es muy grande pero hay un ambiente tranquilo y agradable. Diría que es bueno para dos personas, pero un poco estrecho para grupos más grandes. Lo único que el resto de la carta para mí gusto le falta variedad en general y alguna opción más apta para vegetarianos / veganos.

Cuesta encontrar un bar de toda la vida en Raval, donde puedas comer tan bien (las tortillas estaban de muerte) y el ambiente sea top a la vez (la estética, la limpieza, etc). Para mi es un plus el servicio (agradables, educados...) Nos pedimos una tortilla normal y de queso azul, 4 cervezas y probamos una empanadilla de calamares.🍺 Yo me quedo con las tortillas, eran excelentes.🥚 Volveremos :)

Habia que hacerle caso a la Rosalía, de las mejores tortillas que he probado! Pero tengan en cuenta que se acaban rápido.

Las tortillas están super buenas! Pero no sacan todo el tiempo, fui a las 2:30 quedaban pocas, y no slaian ma Shasta las 6:30, much agente se quedó con ganas de probarlas.

Ask for recommendations to the waiters, they will explain better than the menu itself

Arrived around 5:30pm and saved a spot at the bar for a friend and I. The vibe is an old traditional Spanish town bar, but with good modern music. There was about 3 tortillas (Spanish omelettes) ready to serve and 3 more being prepared. The server said they’d all be ready to plate around 6:30pm. We tried the “cabrales” (blue cheese) tortilla and el clásico (onion and potato). Both delicious! Apparently the house special is the basque crab tortilla, but there wasn’t any that night, so must go back. For drinks we had a red wine from Mallorca, and a white macabeu local to Catalonia. It got pretty packed, best to make a reservation. Oh, and the cheesecake was amazing. Although a little over priced for tapas, everything was tasty.

Loved the food and the service is great. The tortillas are by far the best. Get there early or you'll miss them. But it gets too crowded at times. I was sitting at a bar with a friend and people would rudely cut in between us to ask the bar tender about sitting or order drinks while they waited for their seats. Arrive early, eat some tortilla, get some drinks and leave before it gets too crowded, it's my advice for everyone.

Simple place, fair prices and easygoing. We ate almost every dish some favorites but all good. Oysters had an excellent vinaigrette. Wines were OK but nothing special. Super service! Go here if you…

He ido el domingo a mediodía y el restaurante estaba bien te podías sentar y comer tranquilamente, pedimos ensaladilla rusa y tres trozos de tortilla y nos salió a menos de 20€ por persona con bebida. Las tortillas estaban muy buenas pero me faltaron tapas típicas como croquetas o patatas bravas y la ensaladilla rusa no me acabo de gustar. Recomendaría ir solo por las tortillas.

So expensive!! I paid €35 for a lamb tapas. I’ve never had to pay so much for so little. I wouldn’t recommend this unless you have no concept of money

I do recommend it for tourists. They are the only ones that will not be able to know that it’s very expensive, with a low quality and ridiculous quantities of food. And even they may have the feeling…

Fuimos un domingo al mediodía con ganas de probar sus famosas tortillas, pero ese día no tenían. Pedimos cuatro platos y desde el principio fue una decepción tras otra. Daba la sensación de que nos estaban ofreciendo las sobras del servicio: patatas crudas, conejo en escabeche durísimo y con huesos, cap i pota horrible. No sé si simplemente fue un mal día en la cocina, pero para nosotros fue una de las peores experiencias culinarias que hemos tenido recientemente en la ciudad. La atención del personal fue amable y simpática, y eso se agradece, pero la calidad de la comida dejó muchísimo que desear. Una pena, porque teníamos buenas expectativas, pero en general fue una decepción total.

I do recommend it for tourists. They are the only ones that will not be able to know that it’s very expensive, with a low quality and ridiculous quantities of food. And even they may have the feeling that they have been in an authentic tapas bar (hint: it is not a tapas bar, it is just a place for you to believe it). I have to admit that the service was very good (only at that moment, then they were quite slow) when they gave us the table next to the kitchen and they changed the clean plates after a cockroach crossed all of them from side to side before hiding in the cracks of the wall.

Sima Barzegar

I wouldn’t give more than one star. First of all we went there because of tortilla de patatas but there were nothing remained, so we ordered other plates to try, despite the quality was good but the quantity was not. The bill was not acceptable for the size of dishes! Very expensive!! Never go back again!
