Barcelona's Restaurant & Bar — Restaurant in Garfield

Sunday,, my husband n 2 friends came to eat at Barcelonas. We were sitted in front by the bar because there was a party going on in the back room. We ordered antipasto which we have had before but this time it was very skimpy. There were 2 or 3 slices of meat n cheese, some olives, a few tomato slices, n and some small hot peppers to decorate the dish. We then ordered for meatballs. They were terrible. They were mostly bread n maybe a handful of chop meat mixed in the whole batter. All were cut in half n smothered in sauce to camouflage the bread balls. We also got a pizza which was good as always. Then I was shocked when I ordered an eggplant parm sandwich to go. When I opened it there were delicious breaded eggplant cutlets , a slice of cheese n a spoon full of sauce only on top. There was no sauce on the cutlets in between the bread or cutlets. What a disappointment! If they ran out of sauce for the 🍆 eggplants or chop meat for the meatballs they should have told us n we would have ordered something different. After all these years of eating there n n bragging how good the food was there we were quite embarrassed 😳 by bringing our dear friends out for a delicious lunch n receiving this mess. No more Barcelona for us from now on we will go to Pizzatown, The Firehouse on Plauderville Ave or ROSAS Pizza on River Road. Hopefully one day we hear Barcelona hired a professional Chef that knows how cook real Italian food like they use to before. So sad n disappointed. PLEASE DONT LET BARCELONA 'S REPUTATION GO DOWN...

What a joke of a restaurant. First of all, the place is cash only (hello, it's 2018 now) and many a customer have gone away disappointed because of it!

The food is such a disappointment. The pizza has TOO much of everything. Crust is soggy and undercooked. Sauce is too salty. Too much cheese. This place is serving up Americanized garbage. Just because it's cheap doesn't mean you're getting value for your money. You may as well be eating cup noodles and lunchables. Take your patronage and your money to one of the fantastic, fresh pizzerias in the area and spend a little more for much greater food.

And the ATMOSPHERE. Talk about stuck in the 1950's. The red and white checker print is burned into your brain never to leave. It's like a scene from the worst cheesy mob movie you've ever seen. I almost can't believe this place is still in business. But, what surprises me even more is that most of their customers seem to think this food is good.

EVERYTHING in this restaurant needs an update, the food being the first. It actually disgusts me that everything tastes like it's a week old and came out of a can. Frozen pizza is better than the pizza here and I deeply regret giving my money to people who sell this garbage and call it...

Food quality: 2/5 I ate here with my family. I review quite a lot of places and despite the absolutely LOYAL Customers this restaurant has. The praise based on praises due to price, portions, and atmosphere I can see why they have a growing fan base. I came to this restaurant with an extremely high bar and was overwhelmingly let down. A chicken parm, a shrimp parm that was more cheese and breading than actual chicken and shrimp. They should include a photo on the menu that would show actual sizes. I ask myself, why spend nearly 45$ on 2 dishes that lacked the main ingredient? I eat at all starred restaurants and I call balls and strikes as I see them. Pay the extra 10$ and go to a better quality environment

Service: Again nothing personal. We asked for some water. I guess they forgot? It didn't look all that busy either... I can't imagine this place during a busy dinner cycle.

The bar tender was awesome and he earned my 1 star rating. He was very respectful.

Maybe this was an off night. I don't think I'll...
