The food is okay, though not quite living up to all its praise. We ordered a seafood paella, since we've seen very good reviews for it, as well as a Ramonet bomb. The bomb was decent. The issues started with the paella-- the rice was actually fairly good. However, the shrimp wasn't fresh - was far from it, actually - and neither were the mussels. That ended up spoiling the taste of the rest of it, especially for my younger sister, who's very sensitive to the freshness of seafood.

The real problem, though, is with the service, which was absolutely terrible. We initially booked a reservation for outside, on account for how hot it was that afternoon; however, the temperature dropped sharply in the evening, and we wanted to see if we could switch to eating inside. We were met with a flat rejection and told the inside was full. (There were several empty tables inside, both downstairs and upstairs, which were still empty when I passed through the inside half an hour later.) The waiter was very rude -- we asked him to leave a menu on the table so that we could possibly order more later, and he was hardly polite in his refusal. Further, we only ordered two items, the paella and the Ramonet bomb, and he forgot to write down half our order--the Bomb was only brought out after we questioned where it was and when it would be ready. The paella itself also took quite a long time to arrive.

I rarely feel strongly enough about something to leave a review, much less a negative one. However, in the case of Can Ramonet, I'd suggest finding a better place to try paella. You're better off spending your money elsewhere.
