We had an absolutely fantastic lunch at Lateral in Barcelona and it exceeded every expectation. From the first bite, everything was spot on. The croquettes , both the jamón and prawn were perfectly crisp on the outside and indulgently creamy inside. The Catalonian-style pan con tomate was simple yet flawless, the tortilla with truffle was rich and beautifully balanced, and the patatas bravas were among the best we’ve had, full of flavour. To top it all off, the unfiltered beer was exceptional. The overall experience was relaxed, vibrant, and authentically local, making it the perfect spot for a long, leisurely lunch. If you’re in Barcelona and want high-quality tapas done right, Lateral is an absolute must.

The artichoke was to die for. Music a bit loud, but perhaps I'm just getting old. Great experience overall

William Milic

Perfect place if you want to enjoy tapas, cocktails and a great vibe with friends. The drinks are incredible – both presentation and flavor. Paolo was fantastic: efficient, kind and really made us feel welcome.

Loved it here! We came as a group and had such a good time. The cocktails are like little works of art, and they taste just as good as they look. Big thanks to Paolo who was attentive, super nice, and very quick.

Top quality restaurant in the heart of Barcelona. I had the squid brioche, chicken quesadillas and lemon meringue. All three were excellent. They also have a good selection of wine by the glass. Very good value for money. Alex who served was very attentive & friendly . The ambience of the restaurant was very good and calming. Will go back to the restaurant again to try out the other dishes .

Sometimes when things don't work out it is for the best. I was planning to go to Vinitus, but the line waiting for a table was insane... at least 30 people. Lateral was just a couple doors down and they had a table available outside without a wait. And best of all, the food was excellent! Gazpacho and tuna tartar along with a glass of "El nova perfecto". Perfect.

Food was good and they have a nice variety. It is fairly pricey and upscale though compared to the average tapas place. Would return but likely for special occasions

Cambella Wong

Excellent food, service was fabulous, Alex was our waiter, he was very attentive and gave brilliant suggestions on food and amount. We are grateful! And the decoration, furniture are super nice. We were very comfortable and had such a pleasant time having dinner at the restaurant.

Great place to stop if you are getting tired of typical tapas. The avocado shrimp lettuce cups were delish. The artichoke dish was nice too. Our server Maria was very friendly and attentive. Awesome place.

Blanca Bugler

The family loved their Patatas Bravas best so far in BCN. Gazpacho, ceviche, tapas: beef & brie, and quail egg tartine. Cava sangria was more juicy than vino.

We had a wonderful night!!! The service, the staff and the food was very good. The ambiance and the interior looks very fancy. Would definitely recommend! (Especially Noell who serviced us)

Adriana Fischetti

Instead of waiting in a crowd of people for a restaurant a few doors away, I went here. The service is outstanding, the food is wonderful, I had the quesadilla de pollo, and the interior is beautiful and cool. They also have outdoor seating. This is a well-kept secret. Highly recommend.

This is the perfect place to come with friends for a delicious and inexpensive meal. Service is great since you enter the restaurant. The ambiance is very cozy and the decoration very well selected. The menu has many different options, which is a great thing and very much appreciated. Food is well made and brought quickly. Make sure to select several things off the menu and share with friends. When the check arrives, you won’t believe you ate so well for so cheap! Enjoy...

El local es realmente maravilloso, con muy mucho estilo, es precioso. El personal es muy agradable, aunque no entienden mucho de los vinos que sirven. Pedimos tapas para compartir y en general estaba todo muy bueno. Muy recomendable el tartar de salmón y aguacate. Vale la pena también probar los postres.

Un local tranquilo, dónde puedes ir sin reserva, ya que no suele estar demasiado lleno, al menos a mediodía. Tienen variedad de pinchos y tapas para compartir y la verdad es que todo está bastante rico. En mi opinión, no te puedes perder los corazones de alcachofa con jamón y el canelón de rabo de toro. Si te apetecen unas tapas más clásicas, las bravas o las rabas se calamar también están muy ricas. Además, también hay gyozas y alguna tapa mexicana.

Otro sitio de tapas a precio desorbitado. Ya sabes estás en Rbla. Cataluña eso es el valor añadido

Veníamos sin reserva y aún así nos consiguieron colocar (día de Sant Jordi). Pedimos una burrata y un pisto, que estaba increíble, y los dos brioches. De postre torrijas. Lo mejor de todo fue el pisto. No es un restaurante barato, pero en la línea de los precios de Barcelona. Recomendable!

Ayer fuimos 15 personas a cenar. Somos una escuela de baile de Salsa que hay al lado y estuvimos muy a gusto y encantados. Nos atendió la Sta Laia, un encanto de persona con su atención y amabilidad en todo momento. Gracias a todo el equipo Lateral. 100% aconsejable. David

Very nice place for a dinner with friends. Just order some tapas, everything is good. I recommend the fried baby squid, huevos with truffle and the tuna tartare. Also save room for the French toast... Our waiters Pol and Alex were super friendly and attentive. Good vibes!

In the central area of Barcelona lies a delightful Spanish restaurant. The ambiance is pleasant, and despite the absence of natural windows, the decor—featuring furniture and light colors—creates a warm setting. The food is delectable. While portions might seem small at first glance, they're just the right amount. Every dish is not only visually appealing but also adds to the overall taste experience.

Beautiful place, my advise is to grab a seat at the back of restaurant. Food is delicious and arrives quickly. Our waiter (Tamin) was polite & friendly. He made good suggestions for the vegetarian foods. Patata bravas are tasty but portion size is too small. Plus they don’t come with a lot of bravas sauce. Overall a nice and chique place, good atmosphere and tasty food. Only downside is the portion size for me. We had 7 tapas, 4 beers, 1 cocktail Total damage was around €95

Nice athmosphere, relaxing cool place with classic style. The duck raviolis are really delicious but ceviche was lacking acidity and spicyness,.

He vivido en Andalucía un tiempo, y esta “Fritura Andaluza” fue una vergüenza y me pareció un robo, 22 euros por unas gambas casi vacías y calamares chiclosos. Una experiencia muy decepcionante, aunque el personal fue amable.

Vinimos 4 amigos a comer entre semana y éramos los únicos comensales del restaurante, lo que nos sorprendió mucho. Estábamos muy tranquilos y bien atendidos. Pedimos varios platos para compartir (todo lo de las fotos, además del brioche de costilla), de postre tarta de queso, la torrija y cafés para todos. Con bebida incluida pagamos 25€ por cabeza, muy bien para todo lo que comimos. La calidad de los platos fue la esperada de un restaurante informal con precios asequibles. Los camareros fueron muy amables y nos atendieron estupendamente.

Terrible food, nothing is fresh. not sure what is wrong with this Lateral. We’ve been to several in Madrid and pozuelo, it was always good. Before you read about the food, pls note that the service is good, and the place beautiful. But the problem is in the kitchen. The tomato bread appears anemic, and the tomato sauce that comes with it expired and tastes weird. The rabas (fried squid) is chewy (plasticky and tasteless). The brioche with carrilleras (pork cheek) came with ketchup instead of bbq sauce as indicated on the menu - and disappoint in flavor and texture. The quesadilla barely had cheese, and contained chicken crumbs that looked grey. The only ok dish was the artichokes. They did not charge us for the bread at the end, but definitely will not come back.

Después de pedir insistentemente por un grupo de clientes que llevaba gritando 5 horas, y siendo casi las 2 de la mañana el restaurante se ha desentendido completamente de la situación y de los clientes. La Ordenanza Municipal de las Actividades de los Establecimientos de Concurrencia Pública establece que: "El titular del local es responsable de que, a la salida del local, no se produzcan conductas incívicas ni ruidos perturbadores para el vecindario y peatones." Menores bebiendo en la calle, si, muchos menores, (se puede ver en el video 3 am) y dando alaridos, sudandole completamente el bienestar de los vecinos. El restaurante es responsable de controlar esto. Y de respetar a los vecinos. Los encargados desentendidos, nadie es responsable. Ser un buen establecimiento es también ser responsable con el barrio. La falta de autoridad del equipo de trabajo para lidiar con un grupo de clientes para pedirles que se retiren amablemente o se comporten es absolutamente insólita. Por favor, capacitar al equipo para lidiar con estas cosas correctamente. OJALA QUE A LOS DUEÑOS NO LES TOQUE LIDIAR CON ESTO CADA MADRUGADA FUERA DE SU CASA. EL DIA LUNES PROCEDO A REALIZAR LA DENUNCIA EN EL AYUNTAMIENTO.

He hecho un pedido de tortilla a domicilio, (tortilla supuestamente jugosa según anuncian en sus redes) y me ha llegado totalmente chamuscada y cuajada… intragable.

Una GRAN DECEPCIÓN!! No era la primera vez que comíamos en este restaurante pero, está vez ha sido MUY DECEPCIONANTE!! Entre otras cosas hemos pedido unas PATATAS BRAVAS que eran MUY MALAS!! La primera vez que nos presentan unas patatas bravas que han sido hervidas antes de freírlas.....UNA VERDADERA PENA ( por ser respetuoso...) También hemos pedido una fritura de pescado: UN HORROR......el aceite no era limpio y el sabor TERRIBLE. Yo quería devolver el plato pero las personas que estaban conmigo no han querido tener problema!! Una cosa es segura: NO VOLVEREMOS EN ESTE RESTAURANTE!!
