Podium29 — Restaurant in Tarragona

It was a late night (about 1.30 a.m.) and only a few cafes or restaurants were open but we were lucky to find «Podium29» and I absolutely recommend to eat in this restaurant! The fish and pasta were so tasty and I agree about the best “patatas bravas” sauce in the city. You can order a daily menu for 13-14 euro and have a really tasty food in the center of Tarragona. Or you can have a special offer of two drinks and “tapas” (a snack) for 5 euros. Also recommend to try Tarragona’s wine here in this restaurant. The girl Aitana is so kind, helping and positive so we fully enjoyed our dinner. I also liked the friendly atmosphere in this restaurant. Comparing with other places to eat in Tarragona I can say that here you can be sure that they will help to choose the right dish, drink and the food will be fresh and tasty. One of the favorite places to eat and we will surely come again in our next trip...

We ordered a jar of wine. We went to pay and they were charging us 5 euros extra because apparently they only do jars for beer and what they do is they charge you two glasses of wine as a jar. We thought it was REALLY expensive to pay 7 euros per jar, considering they aren't serving you twice as they would with 2 glasses AND the wine was incredibly rancid.

The girl at the counter got super sassy, making faces at us and and sighing, the owner a bit agressive even (face gestures and body language), saying it had been a favour to us because they don't do jars. Horrible experience. We got -3.5 off (1 glass supposedly), but we...

Terrible tourist trap. Paella tasted like rice-a-roni. Service was just the worst.

They brought our main dishes before the appetizers. When told they removed the mains, brought the appetizers (tinned asparagus - really?).

They then brought out the exact same dishes (my wife had cut her pizza) almost cold.

Tuna pizza was tinned tuna, fries were like frozen oven fries, Paella was rice-aroni.

We were there over 2 hours, other guests arrived, ordered and recieved their food after we had ordered.

Didn't bother to wait for dessert after that assault of poor dining.

Avoid this...
