Parda Barcelona — Restaurant in Barcelona

Excellent!! I attended on 28/8 as a solo diner and was blown away! I was given a warm welcome by the team before being escorted to my table where I was served by Andrea who was great for the duration of my visit. The vibe in this place is awesome. This is one of the coolest steak houses I've ever been to. The lighting was brilliant and had an intimate but not too serious feel. This was all sound tracked by some great deep house tracks which was just what I wanted to hear. I don't think I've ever been to a steakhouse where they're playing proper deep house music, for me this really elevated the experience. I must say the food was amazing! I started with the Oxtail croquetas which were sublime, cooked to perfection and really bursting with intense flavour. This is a must-try dish when you visit, trust me, you will want more, 3 we're not enough lol! On to the main event, I ordered the Tenderloin meduim-rare and it arrived exactly to order. Really flavourful and tender, cooked to perfection. I really didn't want it to finish. With the steak I ordered the potatoes with parmesan and pesto, these were out of this world! Omg, I could happily eat these all day long, wow. I also ordered the grilled veg salad which was also incredible! So many amazing flavours, everything just complimented each other perfectly. I'd go far as saying this was one of the best dinners I had during my stay in Barna. I had to have a glass of red and a Barcelona Mule which were lovely. Dessert was a warm chocolate coulant which was heavenly! This was served with ice cream and was amazing!! Final words, this is an amazing steak house, the team are doing a fantastic job and this is an essential stop during your time in this...

The worst restaurant I have ever been to, especially for this price

The experience at this restaurant was far from what we expected. One of the biggest issues was the tabletop grill, which kept turning off repeatedly. Since the main attraction is cooking the meat at the table, this was incredibly frustrating and showed a clear lack of preparation from the restaurant.

The cooking itself was also disappointing. I ordered a medium-cooked tenderloin, but it arrived completely overcooked (well done) and, even worse, already cut into pieces. A steak like this should always be served whole. When I asked them to fix it, they brought it back nearly raw. For a place that claims to be a steakhouse, basic steak preparation should not be an issue. This really made me question the chef’s skills.

The service only made things worse. The waiters kept mixing up orders, bringing the wrong cuts of meat and the wrong doneness. To top it all off, we were charged for a €130 steak when we had actually ordered a completely different one that was much cheaper. It felt like either the staff didn’t know what they were doing or they were intentionally overcharging customers.

Overall, this was a disappointing experience, and I wouldn’t recommend this place—especially if you’re looking for a proper steakhouse or celebrating a...

I’m a huge fan of Argentinian steaks and decided to check this place out. Honestly, the food was pretty ordinary - so even I questioned myself if this is truely Argentinian cut.

That said, we had a fun time overall, mostly because of the people. The staff was friendly and approachable, which I really appreciated. But here are a few things to keep in mind:

1 price vs. quality – not worth the cost in my opinion. 2 we asked for a group-friendly option to share (for 4), but they suggested tiny portions that felt like an upsell. Later, we spotted better sharing choices on the menu (of course!) 3 I specifically asked for chimichurri, but it wasn’t offered upfront. Then they brought one tiny dish of dip for four people lol (really?) 4 empty restaurant vibe – It was pretty quiet between 3–7 PM on a weekend (not necessarily a bad...
