Tantarantan - Barcelona

We had arrived at our apartment in caller de Napols near the Arc De Triomf and were heading into the centre. Whilst walking down one of the main roads I spotted Tantarantana to the side and decided to check it out. Set in a simple side square , there were plenty of tables available so we ordered a beer and sangria accompanied by olives and pan con tomate which were all refreshing and tasty. We followed this up with aubergines with molasses and mushroom croquettes , the aubergines were great crispy on the outside soft inside , the croquetas were full of mushroom flavour. We would’ve come back for more if we’d had the time.

We were a group of 7 people that wanted to seat for some tapas and a drink. Staff was unpleasant and not polite at all, the food and drinks are expensive for a very low quality. Not a good spot.

Great risotto and the grilled squid was also good. Nice atmosphere and nice waiting staff. Gluten-free options were limited

Recommended by our bike tour guide. We had a beer, water, tuna salad and baked Camembert with tomato sauce. Cost 31.10 euros. Not cheap but the food was very tasty and there was plenty of it. We sat outside in the square, a nice setting for a lunch.

Bad, many other options in the area rude and unprofessional staff ruined our day. Average food high prices bad team. Overall a big fat no
