A truly magical night at this hidden gem in New Orleans: @barcelonatapas_nola. Every bite was a delight! Chef Laurentino’s humble, kind spirit made the experience even more special. We absolutely loved it! 🇪🇸✨ #BarcelonaNola #BarcelonaFlavors #BarcelonaInNewOrleans #NolaSpain

Chef is genius! He is warm and friendly and helped us with ordering when he thought we had too much for the four of us. Paella, tomato bread, garlic shrimp pasta, cheese, potato tart, lamb chops were all perfect. Sangria was light and tasty.
Great service and everything on the menu was amazing came for the Paella and it did not disappoint.. and the cheif, amazing person and conversation... and cooks are top notch.. I highly recommend 👌

Barcelona Tapas was a fantastic oasis in New Orleans. A search for tapas produced several places. Looking at the menus, Barcelona was a bargain and a little out of the tourist area. Xavier's (owner and chef) story is touching, and the food reflects his commitment to simple and delicious dishes. Don't skip the Sangria either. His Tortilla España was phenomenal, as we're the cremini mushrooms diabla, and the calamari. Highly, highly recommend dinner in this cozy restaurant.

What a wonderful restaurant! The owner is from Barcelona and provides absolutely amazing food fresh from the kitchen straight to the table. It is a unique experience as the owner does everything. Do yourself a favor and come before he retires.

The paella is the best I can remember. Garlic shrimp was great also. I also liked the Barcelona style ceviche. And I can recommend the flan.
Randomly found this place on a Google search, and boy, were we pleased! Every meal should be so perfect! This is definitely a highlight of our trip to Mardi Gras! 👍👍
This beautiful unique restaurant gave us a lovely date night experience. We started with the hot tapa garlic chicken with a French roll and garlic aoili (DELICIOUS) and continued with a seafood pallella (SCRUMPTIOUS) and ended with the to die for creme brulee. Please note the restaurant is cash only, but it is absolutely worth it. The sangria and mojito were delicious companions to the meal!

Amazing! This is an under the radar hidden gem! You won't find a sign outfront, but you will be so glad once you find it. The atmosphere is down to earth and feels like home. We had the honor of meeting culinary master Chef Zavier. His passion, worldly down-to-earth style, and exceptional care and concern with your meal experience were both touching and delightful.
Every entrée was above and beyond our expectations. The sangria pitcher is a delicious signature drink. We ordered the lamb chops twice! Exquisite! Each plate arrived quickly with perfect presentation and was a gourmet delight. Best meal we had in New Orleans! We'll treasure the memories here!
