Galician Grill — Restaurant in Barcelona

We went to the place as our hotel is close by. The first person that served us could not speak English so we got another waitor he was helpful and organised the menu in English. We then got a third waitor who again could not speak English. We ordered the snail, calamari and torrado galican grill as we thought this would be like a meat platter. We got a sandwich that could have been from a petrol station and calamari rings. We were waiting for the snails but they did not come. We thought that the waitor probably messed-up our order by accident so we ate the sandwich. After a while we realised that we won't get the snails so we asked for the bill. There we got a shock and noticed that the petrol station sandwich was apperently the Torrada Galican Grill and cost 14 EUR!! I been to a lot of places New York, London, Paris no where did I ever pay 14 EUR for a sandwich. We asked the waitor if they maybe got us the wrong meals but he said that it is in fact a sandwich. As this is a place where usually locals go to outside of Barcelona I find it hard to believe. I think they noticed we are tourist and jyst gave us whatever is left in the kitchen. I don't like it aNd think this needs to...

Unfortunately, our experience at this restaurant was the worst of our entire week in Barcelona. We arrived at 2:00 PM and things immediately went wrong.

After ordering, the waiter returned to inform us that some dishes were unavailable. This was just the beginning of a very long wait.

The dishes arrived with excruciating slowness. I understand that we are in Spain, but waiting 15 minutes between dishes is unacceptable. The situation worsened further when they completely forgot one of our orders. Unbelievable.

And the quality of the food? Absolutely not worth the wait. There was no justification for this slowness and this poor service. A real disappointment.

I highly recommend avoiding this restaurant. Look for better alternatives for your lunch...

Fuimos a comer 30 amigos y disponíamos de un menú cerrado de 26 euros. Para picar: Lacón con cachelos (que las "patatas tenían una pinta horrible y sabor mas de lo mismo), Patatas bravas ( buenas), Mejillones en vapor (aquí vino el primer problema , la mitad de los mejillones vacíos y la otra mitad como el de la foto, y no exagero, no hubo ni 1 correcto), éramos unas 30 personas y todos opinamos igual, y nos quejamos y con razón. Al cabo del rato nos trajeron unos mejillones en perfecto estado. ¿qué pretendían al ponernos esos al principio? Los tenían guardados para gente más selecta?? .

Continuo con el menú: De segundo churrasco o dorada a elegir (todo bien), Postre: Tarta de santiago (también adjunto foto) esto era el "postre" para una mesa de 6 u 8 personas. Pensábamos que era una broma. Estábamos de celebración y la verdad que la gran mayoría dijimos que no volveríamos a ir mas. En el menú también entraba café, chupito de la casa, 1 bebida y pan (que el pan por mucho que lo reclamamos en ningún momento nos lo trajeron) Es decir que 30 personas cenamos sin pan. El trato y paciencia de la camarera fue bueno ya que estábamos de cachondeo por el motivo de la celebración.

Al final pagamos 29 euros por cabeza (por las bebidas extras) por algo penoso. Si el dueño se quiere poner en...
