Chiringuito Pez Vela

We had a pleasant dinner here for my daughter’s birthday. The food was overall good and we enjoyed our meal. The burger and the chicken dish were both very tasty and well-prepared. However, the seafood paella was a bit disappointing as it was quite sparse on actual seafood. ​On the plus side, the desserts were excellent—the lemon pie, crema catalana, and chocolate cake were all delicious. ​The staff was friendly, though the service felt a bit distracted at times. I had brought my own birthday candle and mentioned it when we were seated, but it was initially forgotten during dessert. Even though we had already settled the bill, the staff kindly asked us to stay for a moment and brought out a scoop of ice cream with the candle for my daughter. It was a very sweet and thoughtful gesture that we truly appreciated, even if it was a bit late. ​Overall, it’s a nice spot with a good atmosphere, but there’s room for more attention to detail and a more generous serving of seafood in the paella.

Do you miss summer 😎? I do. 😇 I miss everything about it: the heat, the sun, BBQ, paella on the beach... 🥹 Talking about paella, I just realized now that the only one 1️⃣ I had in Barcelona this summer was at Pez Vela . 😳 We were just coming back from a trip to Denmark 🇩🇰 with some friends and we were counting on this place to remind us how great 🇪🇸 Spanish / Catalan food is. 💪 The place is beautiful and, even though the weather was kinda hot, the light breeze that night made it perfect. 💯 We went for Spanish food, as I explained, plus a ceviche, cause there's always someone who wants something different. 😅 Everything to share, Spanish style. 😉 The food was good, especially paella (more than black rice): well cooked, firm but not dry. Great. 👏 The "pa amb tomàquet" (bread with tomato) on the contrary was not good. And for €2.5 per small slice, that is not ok. The ham also was so-so. Again, it was supposed to be Bellota ham, and it's not like you need to transform the product: it's either good or not (if you slice it properly). Again, for that price (€24), we could definitely expect way better. 👎 In general, that was an expensive meal, almost as expensive as the ones we shared in Denmark: €300 for 9 dishes, 4 desserts and 1 bottle of wine (all shared between 5 adults and 1 kid). 🥵 The service was chaotic: the servers often forgot us, they brought the dishes in the wrong order but... they managed to bring our rice dishes one after the other, as we requested. I usually ask for this favor, but servers usually refuse because of the logistics... but it's very important that you don't let rice sit out for too long to avoid spoiling the experience. So thanks for this effort! 🙏 If you're not on a budget, I think Pez Vela is a nice spot to chill and enjoy rather good food. 👍 . . .

Excellent highly recommend this place! We had a wonderful evening dining by the sea with excellent server named Montaser. He gave us fantastic recommendations and treated us so well. The clams with red sauce, the scallops, and lobster Croquettes were all delicious! Overall with excellent service, great ambiance, and yummy food! We came back next day to dine here again!

This is a must stop in Barcelona. On the beach walk. The service and atmosphere is great. The food is even better. We had the calamari, Chicken Croquettes, hamburger and white fish (fish of the day). Prices are good, staff is friendly and dress is casual.
