Barcelona Wine Bar

This has been me and my SO's go-to date night spot for the last few years and it never disappoints. Only down side is how popular it is - so definitely recommend to make a reservation ahead of time!The patatas bravas are to die for - still don't understand how one restaurants can make potatoes taste so good. Paellas are also a classic, with the option to choose from more meat-heavy (e.g. pork belly, chorizo, chicken) to seafood (e.g. mussels, squid, clams) to more veggie-based (e.g. asparagus, mushrooms, zucchini). Can't go wrong with anything on the menu - order lots and be ready to share!

food and drinks are amazing. my recs: ricotta honey bread, patatas bravas, mussels, and red sangriaservice is good but nothing to write home about. this is the place to go for an excellent atmosphere and great food. perfect for a girl's night out or a date! note: reservations are essential but you will probably have to wait 20+ min regardless

This is awkward. We jumped right into the incredibly fresh bread with a crusty outside and chewy inside with flavorful olive oil on the side. The sangria, red in this case, was wonderful. It's the first time I haven't taken pictures of a meal in years. Next, we had the muscles, the Iberian ham and delicious shrimp and garlic olive oil that we sopped up with our bread. The food was simply tasty and fresh. We selected nine or 10 top dishes and devoured every one. Fresh and well crafted.I love service execution at restaurants. The service at Barcelona in Brookline was excellent. We were greeted at our seats within 60 seconds. There was constant attention. Plates were cleared and dishes were served hot and timely. Two different managers checked in on us. That is simply excellent and execution, and I truly appreciate it . 19 July 24 visit. An excellent choice of Spanish wines. Truly enjoyed this experience.

Here I found some fun atmosphere and tasty food. Fries and eggplant caponata were a little oily for my taste but overall good food.Chocolate cake is not too sweet and it has a nice crunch on top.

Heck yeah this place was delicious. We had a big group and did the prix fixe; small plates kept coming out! Faves were grilled octopus, meatballs, cheese plate, spinach. Cocktails were also standouts.Service was prompt, they missed a few drinks now and again but the place was slammed so I get it. Love the energy of this place. Will be back next time I'm in the area!

Went here on a first date, pretty loud ambiance, but food and service were fantastic. We split tapas of:Patatas bravas (great)Harissa hummus (great..cracker/chips make this dish)Seared salmon (so good)Lobster Cavatelli (really good)Drink: Bees & Bays Cocktail (great, especially for no ABV!)

We stopped by in the morning while we are waiting on other restaurant waitlist. So we did not order a lot but had two of our favorite spanish small dishes. Potato Tortilla is our go-to, which might be the best in town!

Finally got to try Barcelona after hearing so much about it! Came for happy hour at about 5:30, but ran into traffic so we were late. The hostess was super sweet and was still able to seat us (thanks again!) and we tried lots of awesome dishes. From the octopus to the steak, everything was great! Also loved the olive oil cake! Remember these are tapas and meant for sharing so they're smaller plates but still yum. By the time we left around 7, it was jam packed so highly recommend making a reservation ahead of time.

Food was very good. Went for a work dinner. Ordered multiple tapas and the larger meat platter. Red sangria was also very good. Service was a little slow especially when we were looking for the check. The AC vents in the ceiling will leak on you. All the manager said was "it happens".

Long wait, even if you had a reservation, but very delicious and great ambiance. Servers were very nice and wine was amazing. Space is slightly cramped.
