VABOWL — Restaurant in Barcelona

Service was perfunctory, given we were the only two customers at the time. Great concept steamed food...sounded healthy. My steamed mushroom dish (no enoki despite the pics) was more or less a bowl of congealed sweet sauce and sliced mushrooms. I couldn't taste mushroom at all. The aubergine with tahini was not tasty (although the aubergine was soft and edible) . When the waiter asked how our meals were I gave him this exact feedback and he literally just walked away. So one saving Grace were the gyozas. They were tasty at least and worth the long wait. As we were leaving a group of four people arrived without a reservation and were given permission to sit on the outdoor Street tables that we were told were previously reserved for someone else. I am disappointed with the whole experience and I hope it was just a bad experience but I think the...

This review is the the menu del día, with vegetable “ramen” and gyoza. TL;DR—VERY bland food that is very much “meh.” Also whatever I just ate that was advertised as vegetarian ramen was not ramen. At best it was some kind of noodle soup. There were barely any vegetables. Two very small overcooked pieces of bok choy and LOTs of very processed noodles. The broth was very basic, felt like it was made with a powdered bouillon cube and salt, I’d be surprised if there was anything else in there. Gyoza was more like dumplings, and was very unmemorable. Did not feel like a healthy meal. Lots of processed carbs, barely any veggies, possibly other powered additives. Definitely NOT worth 13,95€ (which does not include wine or dessert). Very disappointing. Not...

Great modern and healthy Chinese restaurant with great service.

Most of the dishes are steamed rather than fried, so you can eat here healthily. The daily lunch menu let's you choose 3 small dishes, with rice, a drink, and dessert. Really good value for 16 euro. It's available on weekends and weekdays.

Our waiter Gurlyana was extremely friendly and helped us choose some really nice dishes. Service couldn't have better. We had chicken teriyaki, langoustine noodle soup, spicy beef, bao bun, and wonton soup, all of which were delicious except the teriyaki which was a bit bland. Matcha ice cream and matcha cheesecake desserts were ok, nothing special.

Decor is nice and everything is clean.

I would definitely come back...
