Reviews of Barcelona Wine Bar
Nancy Dobson
Beautiful space and casual, but sophisticated vibe. Open, lots of natural light, tasteful and interesting, a little edgy decor. We sat at the bar, which we enjoyed. Good service, fast too. I had the "Flower" specialty cocktail and it tasted like summer (totally enjoyed it). My husband and I had several Tapas plates, all delish. The hummus is some of the best I've had. We will definitely go back!
Caileigh Feldman
The service was wonderful and so was the vibe! Everyone was really kind, attentive, and helpful. We loved our booth but the food was below average. We got the potatoes, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, and seafood paella.
The paella was really small. We had asked in advance and the size that they recommended was for 3 people. Just two of us were eating it but there was very little rice or seafood. The potatoes and Brussels sprouts were both super over cooked and way too oily.
The tapas also came out incredibly fast like it had already been cooked and was waiting. With some small changes, it would have been so delicious. Thanks again for great service but please use less oil with the food and don’t overcook things as much.

Cool vibe and delicious food! This is probably one of the most underrated restaurants in Nashville. If you can’t get a table, the bar is fabulous. Knowledgeable bartender who guided us on the best tapas bites. We had cocktails, charcuterie board, and about 7 small plates. The food was divine- the bacon wrapped figs were incredible!!! It’s effortless without taking itself too seriously. Definitely go
Sydney Butler
The food was fantastic! We got to try lots of little things from all corners of the menu, highly reccommend the pork belly and spinach with chickpeas. We shared a veggie and meat paella as well, both were delicious. Service was awesome and was happy to accomodate some higher maintenance members of my party. We will definitely be back!
Tiff Lara
It was a good place having some tapas. We tried to go on Sunday night and it was packed and long wait. We made reservations for Monday, it was good. Our waiter was good but brought us the wrong tapa at one point, and twice we had servers keep mistaking our tapas for another table. But overall very good time.
LaQuita Crutcher
I went on a Saturday. Our reservation was at 6pm. There were 6 of us. The table they sat us at was small. We were all ordering different tapas. Thankfully everything came out at different times. It was very busy. You could tell some people were still there from brunch. I enjoyed everything and will go again.

This place's food is delicious, every dish has its own charm, the personal is always so kind and professional taking care of every detail. And wow, the dessert it's a pleasure after a great meal.
A delightful experience I had with my friends here.
Justine Vild
Beautiful, homey relaxed vibe with great music. I should have been born in Barcelona because tapas are my favorite style of eating. We took our Spanish foreign exchange student (from Barcelona) here and she gives it 4.5 stars. I give it 5 though. The food was delicious, service was excellent and the food flowed out smoothly. Some dishes we enjoyed more than others but overall excellent. The bread was fantastic as well. The main dishes take longer to make which they tell you upon ordering. We ordered the paella salvaje which was just a tad salty but delicious and cooked better than some we had in Spain this past summer. Highly recommend coming here. Make reservations if you can.
Anya Myrick
Came here for a rare date night with my husband, the atmosphere was great and the food and drinks were delicious! We got a few tapas and one main course to share as well as the red Sangria which tasted just right, not too sweet. Seafood paella and Patatas Bravas were my favorites but every dish we had was very flavorful. I’ve been to Spain many times and I think this restaurant is a great representation of authentic Spanish food.
The staff were friendly, professional and accommodating. Definitely recommend getting a reservation because it does get quite busy for dinner!
Lisa Mayberry
I can't say enough about how good the food and the service are here. The flan was the best I think I've ever had. The mussels were delicious as well as the tuna crudo. Honestly you can't go wrong with anything you get here.
Amanda
This is your next go to place! The ambiance is cute and casual but can be dressy, it’s completely up to you.
The Tapas you need to try are the Jamón & Manchego Croquetas, Spiced Beef Empanadas, and the Patatas Bravas. The Paella was also so delicious and the crispy bits were a fan fave. Anything you try here is going to be great.
We sat at the bar and that was so much fun! Paul and Sabrina were a hoot. They were easy to talk to, friendly, and made our experience so positive. The GM was also so friendly and stopped by a couple times.
Rebecca Bishop
WOW! The food here is delicious. My girlfriends and I came here on our trip from out of state and we were blown away by how good everything was! Our waiter Nick was beyond helpful and knowledgeable about the food and wines, he was the BEST! Great place to eat.
Colin Tomblin
If you like Tapas and small plates, Barcelona is a must try! This is one of our favorite Nashville spots. There are so many awesome dishes, it’s hard to try just a few. Highly recommend doing the Chef’s Tasting. Tapas are sent out randomly to the table and you can make recommendations to the server if there is a specific dish you would like to try. Let me preface this with everyone at the table must agree, but it’s totally worth it. So much good food and there were several tapas I wouldn’t have initially selected that I ended up loving. The cocktails are awesome as well. There is a paid parking lot conveniently located across the street. I recommend paying for atleast 2 hours. They accept walk ins but a reservation here is highly recommended. They accept them via website or phone. There’s seating outside as well as at the bar.
Andy Suarez (Chefsuarez)
Amazing food and cocktails. Also thanks for the awesome service :)
Try a little bit of everything but make sure you read over menu. Definitely worth it.
Maria Faulkner
Although the wait can be long at times, the atmosphere is likely worth it to those looking for modern ambiance with a European flair. The small plates are great for sharing and being able to sample some the meats, cheeses, and flavorfully prepared veggies they have on the menu. The crispy pork belly and spiced meatballs are excellent for anyone wanting something a little more hearty. Although I have been several times, I have not tried one of the large plates; hopefully I can write favorably about those as well soon. I have only been to the Nashville location, so I cannot speak for any of the other locations (it seems like a positive customer experience is part of the culture, however). Overall a great place to meet friends for wine and tapas or even a prime date night spot.
Medicare With Roz
I’m in town on business and stopped by this local restaurant because let’s be honest, who doesn’t like tapas (small plates) and wine? Let me tell you: I have nothing negative to say. It. Was. Impeccable. From making the reservation to meeting at the host stand to the service and the food, I would come back and try more. My waiter Rob was knowledgeable about the menu, had enough small talk to not be interrupted with his other tables and was kind, honest and friendly. My wine flight SPOKE TO ME. Not in the literal sense, but the metaphorical way and it was the perfect touch to my appetite. I tried three very different items: bacon wrapped dates, whipped sheep’s cheese and pork belly with mojo picante sauce. Divine. It was all divine. To end my evening, I succumbed to the olive oil cake. I started my evening with bread and EVOO, so why not end it with more EVOO? Not only did it hit my sweet spot, but it had a hint of sea salt which miraculously accentuated the olive oil notes and wasn’t overbearing and obnoxious. A must try and incredibly tasty.
Emily Rodriguez
This is mine and my friends favorite place for a girls night! The vibes are always great and the food option are so yummy. We started off with a charcuterie board and some guava lavender mimosas.
Amanda Smith
My girl group went on a weekend trip to Nashville, and a member of our group made reservations here. I’m so glad she did! The food was fabulous. There were five of us, and we got about 12 different tapas to share. Each dish was more delicious, than the last. I was in Spain recently, and this food was better than what I had over there. It had all the simple, fresh ingredients you’d expect to find in Spain like jamon, potatoes, chorizo, etc., but the sauces were complicated, delicate things that really enhanced the flavor of the foods. We had the best Albariño I’ve ever had as well. The service was fast, the setting vibrant and exciting, and it was all surprisingly affordable. I didn’t get good pics bc we had eaten most of it before I thought about it, but I’ll post what I have.
Mariana Boff
Amazing environment. Staff very friendly.
Croquetas were delicious. Fish was ok. Pork belly was good. Sandwich was ok. Sangrias were delicious.
Paella very good. Cheesecake delicious.
I loved the experience.
Danielle Caron
If I could give a restaurant six stars, it would be this one. I came here for a friend's moving away dinner (a little late!), and I wasn't sure what to expect at first. As soon as I got in, I was greeted in a friendly way, and I found my spot at the table, which was already stocked up with bread and food for my friends. The bread is totally vegan, and there are so many other vegan options on the menu! After eating some of the delicious, crispy-on-the-outside-and-fluffy-on-the-inside bread, I asked the server what the vegan options were. He actually drew on the menu for me to point them out (photos attached!), and he stayed for awhile to help me decide what I wanted (so many options!). I even asked for his name afterwards; it's Jaden, I believe:) I ended up going with the Spinach and Chickpea Cazuela, with a couple of different (vegan!) wines: the Nucerro, Reserva and Le Naturel. I absolutely enjoyed the chickpea dish (I also love cumin), and I liked both wines. The Nucerro was similar to a pinot noir, and Le Naturel was a lot more dynamic than I expected!
Overall, I loved the open atmosphere, food, wine, and service. If I ever have an extra special even coming up in the future, I will be choosing this place:)
Laurie Hutchinson
This restaurant is amazing. The food and the atmosphere are top notch. We never had tapas before, so our server, Jennifer, explained the menu and made excellent suggestions. We had the shrimp, Brussel Sprouts, Duck and olives for our small plates. Then we had a Paella. Yum!! Then for dessert chocolate cake and crepas. I can't think of a better place to celebrate our anniversary!
Cutler Bernard
Perfect experience. Server was attentive but not hovering. Everything was very timely even though we ordered almost a dozen small plates. A+
Honky Tonk Party Express
Great, great wine spot! Great selection! Great atmosphere and great friends! We recommend this spot to all our bachelorettes to go for dinner. They absolutely rave about this place.
Parking is a challenge in this area so we recommend ubering or taking a shuttle if it’s a large group. The patio is unbeatable but seating inside is spacious and relaxing.
Be sure to get a reservation!
Hannah
Perfect place for date night or with friends! This place is trendy and intimate. Our favorites were the Brussel sprouts and chicken thigh. The pork belly was good too, just very rich in flavor. The appertivo board was an excellent starter!
Gaurav Hegde
Amazing place to hang out with friends families partners anyone .
It has the most amazing ambience servers and food .
I celebrated my birthday at this place and they offered me a free cocktail.
We got the tapas - chorizo with fig is my favorite, potato paratas , brocollini and the shrimp sauce tapas. Do not recollect all the names but everything was amazing .
The wine and charcuterie pairing was out of this world as well.
Highly recommend this place for any special event or just to have a nice lunch/dinner
The tapas wine and the charcuterie found here is the best out there.
nazia abbas
Absolutely loved this place small food plates combined with an amazing selection of wines and the atmosphere is very good ideal for a date night also with friends.
Stephanie L. Jackson
This place was crowded for a Thursday night, and the atmosphere was amazing! Ari was excellent. He was very pleasant and friendly and made our visit very enjoyable. Thanks so much for your great customer service!
Abby Aguirre
This place is packed!!! Our group had a great time at Barcelona. Our wait staff was so friendly and the food/wine was great. We got the red sangria pitcher for our group of 3 and loved it.
Cassidy Acuff Williams
We had a blast here. This restaurant took me back to Spain. The patatas bravas were delicious. All the tapas we had were wonderful! What a great wine list too. We will be back
Alan Arrowsmith
We stopped at Barcelona Wine Bar to celebrate a personal milestone, and had great food, wine, and service. We had one of the charcuterie boards (olives, potatoes, almonds, cheese and peppers), the eggplant, the chorizo and figs, the mussels, and the Brussels, along with a 3 wine flight. We were lucky enough to sit outside (and be under the sun shade), We also saw a large party inside getting wine poured down their throats, as well as family friendly dining.
ANDY DAN
Social destination, love to hangout here. Could be better if they are not too crowded. Nice bar tender, bring friend here with hot date.
Stacey Pecenka
I started coming here a couple of months ago and I am such a fan! I visit at least once a week- it's that good! The wine is fabulous, and there are so many amazing tapas options that it always feels like an experience. Dining that's leisurely and delicious! The bartenders are so friendly and attentive. I walk in and they know exactly what I'm drinking and they deliver with a smile. It's been such a great experience and I've been telling everyone I know to come to Barcelona 🥰
Aujalee Moore
Visited from Oregon this evening and had an amazing experience with Shauna as our server. She made fantastic recommendations and delivered steller service. We decided to come here because one of the diners is a vegetarian and we wanted her to have plenty of options. This place did the trick! The food was fantastic and perfect for sharing. I was impressed by the portions for a tapas restaurant! The vibe here is chill yet lively. I would come back often if I lived in the area.
Giovanni Aviles
Refined, tasteful, complex, and a worthy adventure. I cannot fully captivate the wonderful experience of the cocktails and the tasty snacks. Every bit paired and thought out so well. This is an adventure for my pallet .
Neftali Alverio
Barcelona was a restaurant I wanted to love but instead liked. It was a good experience but the ambience, food and service left room for improvement in my opinion.
The restaurant has a very intimate look and feel with many modern yet rustic touches and lighting that make it perfect for a date night. My biggest issue here was the music was too loud and made conversation very difficult (which almost ruined the experience). The selection of music as well was more night club than dining which really sums up the tension i had... It looked like i was in a beautifully crafted dining experience but sounded like I was eating in a night club.
The service was good though at times we had to search for our waitress. She was very knowledgeable on the menu and even recommended a summer cocktail that was spot on what my wife wanted. The issue for me really came down to a misunderstanding in the order and a clear hesitance to make it right. In the end I would expect a server is there to ensure the best dining experience but this was clearly a burden to correct. In the end we kept the plate but we're bummed because it wasn't what we wanted.
The food was good but not great because of basic things that the cooks got wrong. We ordered a charcuterie board and the meat and cheeses were great but the patatas (potatoes) were overly drenched in an aioli that made them undesirable. We ordered the octopus that came under seasoned and under cooked. We ended up with the parrillada (meat plate) and every meat other than the sausage was under seasoned as well. I will say that they were cooked perfectly just a bit bland which is not typical for Spanish cuisine. We also had a flan which was very rich and sweet but very good.
In the end we may try again at some point but i really wanted the experience to be better than it was. Not bad but also not great.
Stefanie Bomar
Really tasty and trendy tapas bar with a great wine and cocktail selection. There is some street parking and a paid lot across the street that isn't terribly expensive. I would recommend making a reservation as this place is very busy. You can sit at the bar any time, as long as there are spots, and that is still a very nice experience! Look forward to coming back and trying more things!
R M
BOMB! All the tapas were perfectly cooked and taste amazing! That bread tho…that’s the star of the show. Crispy, flaky exterior with a perfectly fluffy, moist interior. You get olive oil to dip, but you don’t even need it. Sangria is also good - not too sweet or too dry. Plus, the service is great and they have great party music vibes. I can’t recommend this place enough!
johnathan leonard
Great venue. Good food. Great vibes!
Definitely visit while you are in Nashville!
Ingrid Pineda
I would like to give it 5 stars because the food and drinks were amazing but the service was disappointing. This was our first time here and our expectations were higher. Our server told us that we should order our main dishes first since they take 45-60 min. So we did. And then we ordered our tapas and drinks. We got our drinks, but never got our tapas. Our paella dishes came out before the tapas ever did. We had to ask the food runner to please see about our tapas. Another server brought it out. During the time we ate, our server came by once and we asked for more bread. He never brought it to us. We had to ask another server to please bring it. After having received the bread, our server came by to ask if we needed anything else and we said, “yes, the bread please.” So he did bring it out later. Then we finished and had our dishes removed and he never came back to ask if we needed anything else (drinks, dessert, etc.), and we wanted our check already because we had been waiting with a clean table and empty glasses for some time. We eventually ended up having to ask the hostess/manager for our check and only then did our server come back to see if we needed anything else. We politely declined. All in all, the service should have matched the ambiance of the restaurant.
Kathy LaPerch
Didn't realize this was a chain. We saw this place in Nashville, this is where the pictures are from, and realized that there is a Barcelona in West Hartford, CT, which we had been to before when we lived in CT. We now live in Knoxville TN and took a drive west. When we saw Barcelona, we had to go in. We sat at the bar and we were there for hours completely enjoying ourselves. The people we met at the bar and the staff were great. The food and drinks were delicious. Love this place, and glad we found another one. We will be back.
Dew Tinnin
I’ve been to Barcelona twice. I enjoy the atmosphere very much. The way they deliver food as it's ready is a fun idea, but hard to plan a dinner around things being delivered sporadically. Both times we dined there, the mushrooms were delivered 15 minutes after we were completely done eating.
Leah R
Served family style we all tried different tapas as well as a vegetarian paella. The food ranged from good to excellent
Service was great, with friendly wait staff which provided for all our needs without hovering. Well worth a visit if you happen to visit Nashville
Sammy Vester
Excellent choices and nice staff that was on the spot with your needs. Bread was perfect and food was delicious. They have a nice outside patio and that is pet friendly. Also it’s a nice neighborhood to take a after dinner stroll.

Wine & Tapas Bar located in Edgehill Village Nashville. You will find an excellent list of cocktails, small plates, & wines, to include bio farming wines! If you are vegetarian, vegan, or gluten-free, you will find something you can eat here. Parking can be found along the street. Shout out to Preston, such an excellent soul 🌟 and to the GM, who has the most welcoming demeanor and I observed her assisting staff in the kitchen! She worked as hard as her staff and set the example of Excellence.
Terra Brown
Gorgeous atmosphere, amazing staff, and the tapas are perfection!! A must try !!
Ashley Augustine
Excellent wine bar with amazing food, wonderful atmosphere, and helpful staff. Chaz was our server and was a Rockstar. He had great recommendations and knowledge of menu items. He recommended the Olive Oil Cake (sounds weird right?), and holy cow was it delicious. I would recommend Barcelona Wine Bar to anyone living in or visiting Nashville and we can't wait to come back next time we are in town. Keep doing what you're doing!
Fernanda Orsi
I don't understand why Barcelona doesn't have five stars. We went here for our 3 years anniversary and had the pork belly, the paella and some drinks if I remember correctly. Food was amaaazing, what a change from heavy Americanized international food. the service was great as well, and if you make a reservation (which you should if you are going on weekends or Friday) they are really quick to serve you. Do order your main dish when you get there with your appetizers because it takes a little longer to be ready, but thats understandable seeing they are making everything right away. order the appetizers while you wait, they are really good, and the flan was also really good. The price is worth it, seeing the quality of the service and food!
Leslie Bailey
I cannot believe I haven’t had Barcelona Wine Bar sooner! This place is incredible! The wine selection is outstanding and the tapas are delicious! The red sangria is the best I have ever tasted! Do not leave here without trying the patatas bravas👏 …
Lee (MorbidlyCurious)
The food was delicious, the wait staff was lovely, no complaints!! I especially wanted to mention Mitchell, he was very sweet and super friendly to our group. He brought us a charcuterie board when the bread was running late in the oven and was just super courteous. Loved the visit, hope to be back soon! 💜 …
James Collier
Great spot for a nice slow, European dining experience. We started with the aperitivo board, then over the course of 3 hours tried the empanadas,shrimp,croquetas,hangar steak, and meatballs. All of them were quite good, and the empanadas were definitely stand outs. The prices were cheap and the food quality was very good. The complete wine list, as opposed to the small one on the menu, is actually quite good. The service was excellent and attentive without them hovering. We've only been in Nashville a few months, but this is a must visit for folks.
Sierra
Absolutely divine and carefully cooked tapas. So so good!
The atmosphere is charming and intimate for a friends night out, a romantic date, or a get-together.
Chaz took great care of our party!
Erika Cabrera
This place’s ambiance was amazing! The food was great, we were a party of 6 and just shared a bunch of tapas. The croquetas and the crispy brussel sprouts with pickled onions were my favorite. The cocktails and mocktails were also fabulous. We are happy to have given this spot a try.
The workers here were also friendly and very aware of the needs of our group. This place is a must!
G Mack
Great service from the front door, to our servers! Excellent atmosphere. Good bread provided, enjoyed the charcuterie board, and the jamon/cheese balls! Crispy calamari was horrid though. Perhaps it was an ‘off night’. Will go back.
Thomas King
My wife and I had just gotten married and we decided to come here. Chaz was our waiter and he instantly made us feel welcome. His knowledge of the menu and wine selection was incredible. The food was excellent and we will be coming back again to see Chaz!
S. Butler
Very hip and trendy spot. While I enjoyed the music selection, the volume was too loud which meant that we were yelling to hear one another at the table. Food was amazing! Lots of it to be tapas. Parking is a nightmare, so move smart. Our waitress was really dope as well. I'd visit again for sure.
Abigail Fezer
Overall I thought the food was very good, a little pricey but overall worth it. The only part that bummed me out was the server, she just wasn’t nice and just looked so miserable which I understand but at the same time its not my fault and people still need to be professional plus, we ran out of water and she just didn’t replace it. Nothing that was too big of a deal but it wasn’t perfect ☺️
Mariam
Excellent, quality food. Love the ambiance in the evening. Very accommodating to my tree nut allergies - made me feel safe eating there! It’s always busy in the evenings, so I recommend making a reservation in advance.
Bill Bickford
Everything was good. The menu had a nice variety of tapas, and the drink list was good as well.. nothing bad but also nothing really amazing.. would recommend 👌
Rafael Mena
Atmosphere is great, service is excellent portions are smaller than average. Overall a good spot to have a meal.
Drew Bonham
Pricey but so good and the food is delicious! The staff know what they are talking about when it comes to food and wine pairings too! Great date night spot
Ella Diana
Best dining experience I’ve had in awhile! The beef empanadas were perfect, everything was perfect! Great service, excellent food and atmosphere. Wish there were one of these where I live!
Ryan Grisham
Meatballs were cold and the chorizo was meh. Some of the other tapas were really good. Service was decent but not great. It's extremely loud in there and very crowded which may or may not be a bad thing depending on what you're looking for.
Abiezer Rosario
I ordered the Patatas Bravas and it was delicious. Small plates take at least 2 minutes or more to arrive so its very quick. Our waitress Laura attended us nicely and professionally. The restaurant is really clean and fancy and the food is superb. Highly recommend.👌👍
Rebekah Dale
Found my happy place in Nashville! The wine list is excellent, the service exceptional, the bacon wrapped dates are amazing, and the olives take me right back to Spain! We sat on their patio, which was lovely as it has trees blocking the street noise. The red sangria was just okay (although we loved the one with the twist of grapefruit) and the tortilla was a little dry for Spanish standards, but still good for American standards. I will definitely be back, multiple times.
halmet tayar
My experience was absolutely amazing. Emily the manager went above and beyond with her service. The wine, the food, and the service made for a wonderful time. I would highly recommend going to anyone
Nicole Mattox
We got off to a rough start but the manager Mitchell who was on duty last night made it all better!!! The atmosphere was nice and the music was amazing; I love anywhere that has free valet in a small area so I appreciated that. The food was small portions of course but they were full of flavor!! I got his AMAZING Rose Sangria that I am definitely going back for
Ann Henry
Lively tapas restaurant and bar. Food was excellent, waitress was very helpful in choosing items for our group. Personal favs were the ham and cheese croquettes and bacon wrapped dates.
Nicole Salazar
5 stars all the way across. From food to management everything was so great! I took my husband here for his birthday and we had such a great time for lunch on a Saturday. This place is busier at night so we decided to try it during the day and the experience couldn’t have been better. The tapas were delicious, crepes, the olive oil cake (yeah I know wth but it was so good) and the paella was great too if you love seafood.
Sean Gilbert
Great place for tapas, drinks and desert. Could spend an entire night there. It's in a great location and not over priced.
Andrew Dorris
Value for price is good - there are just so many better versions in town if you’re willing to pay a few more bucks per tapa. Quality has gone down over time (of service and food)
Charley Paul
First stop on a weeklong business trip. Large wine selection from Spain/Uruguay/Argentina, along with some French and German ones sprinkled in. Service was wonderful, and had two very attentive servers for our table. The main reason I love tapas is the ability to get so many dishes at a very reasonable price. My coworker and myself tried the following: Swordfish a la Plancha, Brussels Sprouts, Parsnips, Jamón & Manchego Croquetas, Spicy Eggplant Caponata, and Patatas Bravas. The Croquetas were my least favorite, as they just seemed a little too heavy for what I wanted to eat for the day. Nothing against the dish, I just ordered outside of what I wanted. The Patatas Bravas were absolutely wonderful, and tasted better than some that I have had in Spain. For desert we got the Burt Cheesecake and the Crepes. The crepes were absolutely wonderful! I probably wouldn’t order the Cheesecake again, as it wasn’t that special to me.
Angel Parey
WOW. Barcelona Wine Bar is one of the best restaurants I have ever been to. I'll start by saying I'm not the most adventurous eater and couldn't pronounce half of the menu but everything I tried was incredible. There was a group of 4 of us so we shared about 8 tapas including the patatas bravas, meatballs, crispy brussels sprouts, black mussels, chorizo with sweet & sour figs, and the albondigas. I was blown away with how delicious everything was. Then we all shared the paella salvaje which I can't recommend enough. The full size was enough for everyone and we even had some leftover. It comes in a large cast iron skillet with rice and hanger steak, chicken, pork belly and chick peas. PHENOMENAL is how I describe this dish. They're also doing a great job with social distancing during covid. This is a must-visit in Nashville!
Lauren Payne
The perfect place for a date or a girls night out. My personal favorite is a cheese board and the mushrooms. I love that the menu changes day to day and the staff is always friendly.
Vance Ward
This is a really great place to eat. Service all around great, awesome calamari, and try the olive oil cake, please!!
Dash Rothberg
Awesome service... Great food.. If you are looking to have a variety of things with a spice and a kick with reasonable prices cocktails and wine, this is the spot. Great for a date or a group. Don't hesitate to ask for recs or things that fall within your dietary restriction, they know it all. Always nice to have someone looking out for your best interest... Oh and try the meat.. It's hard to perfectly cook =<medium on small share plates but they can do it all. Thanks!
Molly Brown
Chaz Chaz Chaz, what a delight! Truly! We came in for my friends 30th birthday dinner and he filled it with joy and laughter. He made us feel seen and made sure we had fun! Thanks for a great night!!
Luis Cortes
Great place to Brunch or Dine, fantastic service! Emily and her team do a great job at ensuring customers are well cared for.
D Acampora
A little loud when busy, but great atmosphere, great food, great wine! TAPAS!!!
We'll be back even though it's 45 min away.
Patricia Mota
If you are a foodie and a traveler and a wine lover.. you would wanna go and crave of a special place time to time.. I want to present you this amazing wine bar, the wine menu is not a menu.. it’s a wine Book! Amazing vibe, from the entrance to the spanish food it is a complete experience. The lights, the service, the entrees, the paella are just remarcable.. you would love to share unforgetable nights with love ones. You leave the place wanting to come back right away. You must do a reservation, maybe you habe to wait but it is totally worth it. I assure you, you won’t regret it!

Great time, huge selection of sharable food. We let the bartender pic everything. All was delicious. Really enjoyed the speck, snow peas, and mussels

This was the 1st restaurant I visited in my new city, Nashville.
I can say honestly I have had the best cocktail with bourbon here. The Bourbon Spice rack is delicious, a little sweet but not too much, you can still taste the bourbon.
Regarding food the grilled octopus and albondigas are my go to, they are superb!!!.
The only downside is that either you are willing to wait 20-30min for a table or make a reservation ahead of time.
Have gone 3 times and the 3 times the place is packed even on a Monday night.

First off this is our second time there and every time we come in they make it special to us I want to give a shout out to Kayla the manager she was so awesome and treated us with kindness and made my 40th birthday very welcoming thank you again see you next time😊 …
Mariella Warwick
Very surprising find. Some of the best Croquetas I've had in the US. Papas bravas were delicious, sangria tasted like Welches grape juice. Affordable, unique dining experience
Michael Ramsey
Sat at the bar and a had a great experience. Food was wonderful and there was a solid selection of very good wines. Bartenders were helpful and friendly. Really enjoyed the experience.
Calla Bjorklund Jarvie
My husband and I were in Nashville for just a few hours, and we wanted to have a really good meal - and we found it. We had tapas, and it was certainly one of the best meals I've ever had in my life. This trout was to DIE for. Highly recommend.
Marquis Moore
Food and drinks were all great. Service was on point as well providing helpful recommendations. Paella was outstanding, the best I've had here in the US. I HIGHLY recommend the olive oil cake. I was turned off by the name alone imagining how it would taste, I was dead wrong. It was a light cake with a subtle taste of sweet, salty and olive oil. This was a very pleasant surprise.
Wade Allen
Great date night, would probably be even more fun with an adult group. The tapas here are larger than I expected. The meatballs, potatoes, and shishito peppers are not to be missed. Our paella was crispy on the bottom of the pan, which gave it a surprising crunch in some bites and a delicious taste. We will be back!
Dennas Davis
Amazing wine. Get a flight to taste several. The food was more European than American in style, and presentation.
The cheeses and other charcuterie items were quite special. So many goat and sheep cheeses as well as cow, made it hard to choose. Tapas plates were also amazing.
All the things we had were delicious!
The staff were all super personable, helpful, and friendly. We will come back here often.
Shinal
Amazing, vibrant atmosphere! As a solo diner I got to sit at the bar in the middle of the restaurant which is really well placed. I had the bacon wrapped dates, broccolini, and croquettes. Everything was so good, and the bar staff Noah and Tessa were friendly and helpful with recommendations. Definitely going to swing back here when I’m back in town!
Jason Khan
Really great place!! Huge selection of by the glass wine’s, and all of the Tapas dishes were actually more filling than I expected and delicious.
I’d probably try more of the Tapas dishes than the Paella (didn’t feel quite like a traditional one) next time.
CheKnowsBest
Don't sleep on this bar just because it's not in the middle of downtown!! If I could give this place ten stars I would. Great atmosphere, lots of space, GREAT food, great wine selection, great service. Tapas style menu but will fill you up. So glad we found this place. This will be a stop on every Nashville trip going forward.
Tara Daniel
Celebrated my 1 year wedding anniversary here. The food came out fast, EVERYTHING was delicious, the service was EXCELLENT, the staff was SO friendly. They really helped make our dinner perfect, Danny especially; already planning our next dinner there.
A Gandhi
Amazing service, amazing food, amazing wine selection, amazing atmosphere! Barcelona Wine bar hit the spot. We went there for an absolutely fantastic work dinner and all of us chose one of the prix fix options and the food just kept coming. I think that it is safe to say that it was one of the best values for a quality dinner that we've had in Nashville in a very long time! Barcelona is quite popular right now so I definitely recommend making a reservation and arriving a bit early to enjoy a cocktail at the wonderful bar.
Ana Shipp
Always ask for Kara as your server. She is one of sweetest and took such good care of me and my husband on our Anniversary dinner. The food is amazing and this is our favorite date night spot!
John D
Not the best tapas I've had. Some are good, others ok. No happy hour and pricey. Sercice and atmosphere make the place. Definitely a swanky 30-something place for those who don't mind over paying.
Gunter McCourt
Rob, our waiter, was amazing. He had the best knowledge of wines and made perfect suggestions for us to try. He also marked off all the tapas that might’ve had allergy issues. Not only was all the food amazing, but Rob’s attention to curating the best wines for our palates and preferences. Barcelona is a must visit in Nashville the tapas are the fairest priced I’ve ever see and the best I’ve had. 100% will be going here on my next visit.
Annie Lemly
We frequent here and have never had a bad experience. The food is amazing, drinks are quality, and waitstaff are fabulous. Their menu has a wide variety of items and we love the shareable tapas style. My biggest complaint is that it is popular and hard to get into on some nights.
The Commish
Incredible tapas and wine. Service was a little on and off, probably due to how busy they were but great place for wine and cheese!
Chris Murphy
This place was loud, crazy, and full of people. It's exactly what I would want on a Friday night. Had a bunch of tapas plates with friends. The food was excellent. The staff here are amazingly friendly and make the visit absolutely worth it.
Phil Curry
My wife and I came here on our first night in Nashville, and it was honestly the best meal either of us have ever eaten. Everything is delicious, but I would especially recommend the whipped sheep's cheese or the eggplant caponata. If I could rate it higher than a 5 I would.
Lindsey Wagnon
A delightful experience overall but I have to give particular praise to our server Shauna who went absolutely above and beyond. She did an exceptional job introducing us to the food and drink options, was very personable and shocked us by paying such good attention to why we were there that we ended our dinner with a generous on-the-house dessert (some sort of chocolate amazingness) on a butcher block board that said “happy anniversary & birthday” along with glasses of rose wine. This was a casual stop during a trip to celebrate 16 years married any my 40th birthday that became an extra special memory. Well done, staff!
Ryan Depew
Loved going to Barcelona’s for dinner! Our bartender Sabrina was PHENOMENAL!!!! If you can request her, do it! Awesome food, awesome drinks, awesome atmosphere.
Resa Lucas
Beautiful presentation of food, but seemingly lacked flavor. Every dish we ordered was just "ok"
Monica O'Neill MojosArt
We had a nice evening and tried a variety of items from the menu. Some items were a little salty for my taste but the drinks were good and the service was excellent.
Steve De Benedetto
Had lots of fun. Did $45 chef's sampler. I've ate tapas before and at first the potions didn't seem like quite enough even for tapas. However, the dishes kept coming and by the end of the meal I was pleasantly stuffed
Rose Yacone
Amazing Tapas Spot! Great service, cool vibe and decor. Indoor and outdoor seating. Everything we had was delicious!!
Breitner M
The food is really good! Monday is 50% off on wines. Place has a nice atmosphere and the staff is very friendly. I wish they could serve the paella as a single plate.
Angela Pacheco
A great atmosphere with a nice wine selection and tapas. The patio is perfect for a beautiful night or a sunny afternoon. Recommend the cheese selection with their fluffy bread and a make your own wine flight.
The crowd had gotten a bit loud at the bar on the weekends with bachelorette parties, not the same hometown feel as when it opened, setup a good meal.
Agathe Guerrier
A perfect evening. Atmosphere, service, food and wine quality, everything was excellent! Expect a classical Spanish menu of tapas, cheese and cured meat boards, and paellas.
yuxing yang
Good food, chocolate cake is so tasty!!!
Virginia Terry
We had another wonderful dinner experience this weekend! When you walk into the beautiful space you almost forget where you are. The food is always delicious and the staff is very attentive, friendly, and welcoming. Whether you are a local or are visiting from out of town, I recommend Barcelona.
Phil Chambers
Best dining experience we've had I a long time! Grace was an amazing server and the atmosphere was spectacular. Every employee we came into contact with was awesome! Food... Undeniably some of the best I've ever tasted, shout out to the cooks who killed it and our server who nailed it. You will definitely be getting my money in the future! Thank you ❤️
Rick Kloete
Wow, my first time there was to celebrate my daughters birthday with the family, and after a snafu with the reservations (highly recommend them) we had the time of our lives and a 5 star experience. A friend highly recommended this place to us, and now we'll be doing the recommending. Great menu, very friendly staff and super service. I felt like I was really in Spain and love the Tapas style menu. We all tried many different things, some we'd never had. Claire, Jason, and Sarah took great care of us, and we'll definitely be back. The cauliflower was amazing, so was everything. Don't miss the bull near the ceiling! If you haven't been, go, but go early, as they get very busy as the evening goes on.
Jenny Robinson
Excellent tapas. I’ve gone here for several years for birthdays and special occasions and it never disappoints. The service is always great, the food is fantastic and the prices are reasonable. It’s hard to get reservations so make them well in advance. Highly recommend.
Marissa Schmisseur
The atmosphere, customer service, food, and drinks were excellent! We can’t wait to go back, highly recommend.
Yinan Liu
I decided to try this place because of all the good reviews. Honestly, I am fairly disappointed and probably won’t go back.
We ordered 6 tapas and one paella. Spinach & chickpea and mussels were pretty good, but the other tapas were just ok. Paella was way too salty and had very burnt rice in it. Again, I was expecting better quality for how much it cost. One last thing is it took 50 minutes for my order to be ready, which I understand. It’s a busy place. However, some of the food was cold. I am not sure what happened but seemed like they didn’t care that much about getting things right for takeouts.
Arianna Turner
Loved loved loved everything! The customer service, the vibe, the drinks, and the olive oil cake. The drink menu was a little overwhelming for me since I did not know what all the ingredients were, but I trusted them and it worked out so delicious. The staff definitely know what they are talking about everything recommended exceeded my expectations. It started to get busy while I was there and I did not even notice. The vibe stayed very chill throughout my visit. Will be back soon!
Jonathan Delgado
Awesome tapas and a pretty fantastic wine selection here. You can’t go wrong with anything on this menu so be adventurous and try something new!
Nicholas Wanamaker
We took a look at reviews and this place looked intriguing. We were not disappointed. This place had great food. This place serves "tapas", which, if you don't already know, are small plates to share. Our group shared 7 different options and they were all delicious!
I only marked it down a bi because it is insanely loud. Our table could not hear the server very well and she struggled to hear us so bad that we got a partial wrong order on one round. They took care of it perfectly, but some sound dampening would go a long way.
Trevor Trainer
The food was epic and service was prompt. Really enjoyed our time there.
Elsbeth Paige-Jeffers
An excellent selection of wines, cheeses, and tapas dishes! Our bartendress was outstanding and our tapas were decent. Notably, the desserts were absolutely phenomenal! This place is worth a trip for the service and desserts alone. They were also decorated for Pride and it felt like a safe and welcoming space. **waves tiny Progress flag**
Nicholas Ferraz
Great Tapas, Humble sous chef, legit service. Tapas were amazing. Enjoyed it very much.
Charlie Li
Barcelona Wine Bar can still be my favorite chain restaurant in the US after the 4th visit.
Ali G
I have been visiting this location fairly frequently for over 4 years now. Both the food and the service are consistently excellent. I have not left dissatisfied with anything, not even once. I would absolutely recommend. My only suggestion would be making a reservation as it usually gets pretty crowded pretty quick.
Sherry Z
The paella is up to par and the rest are good too.
Caleb
Paella mariscos (pictured) was pretty good. A little pricey for what it is, in my opinion. Person in party had wine spilled on them by a worker... which sucks for everyone but yeah.
Dan Halyburton
Great place with terrific, unique food. Love the decor and the vibe. Great wine selections.
Ashley Johnson
We have dined here several times and always have an outstanding time. Food is consistently fresh, seasonal and well prepared. Service is also always great, but our server tonight Chaz really stood out. He was attentive, knowledgeable and engaging. Kudos to the whole Barcelona team for the incredible hospitality!
Natalia Nashville
Love this place! Very sophisticated atmosphere, great selection of wine for all price ranges! Potatoes and meat balls are must try!
Si' Lance DoGood
Nice atmosphere good bites and fun… a special place to take those you like
Melissa Douglas
Amazing food and drinks. The olive oil cake was spectacular as well as the guns and rosés
Sebrin de Jesús Torres
I've never been there before. I love it
Elizabeth Spitznagel Rose
Service and ambiance were excellent!
Update: I've returned several times and it's consistently great service send delicious food. I was there last week for a work dinner and we ordered the Chef's choice(?). It was fabulous. Delicious course after course kept coming out. We loved everything and it was a great way to sample the menu. My favorites included the broccolini, meatballs, and chocolate cake. Chaz took care of us and he was great. He's a level 2 somalia and his wine selection for us was on point. Looking forward to my next visit.
LeQuetta Neita
We went for Mother’s Day and the food was amazing, great variety of mimosas.
Ibrahim Garba
You will always get a delicious meal with a novel twist here. The food tastes amazing.
Annie Paraison
The food there tastes so fresh and whether you are a meat eater, a vegetarian, or a vegan, there are delicious optio s for you. They have half off bottles of wine on Mondays and Social Hour Monday through Friday for food and drinks.
Ian
What an excellent spot. Great wine list of Spanish, Portugese and South American favorites. Almost all of the tapas that will remind you of Barcelona. Great lighting. Staff are all excellent.
Nikki DeLong
Impressed!! My husband and I visited Nashville to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We had an awesome experience! The food is very good. We ordered completely off the tapas menu. The service was also excellent. Our server Nick gave the best suggestions and was very attentive. Surprisingly so was everyone else who worked there! We highly recommend and will return if ever in Nashville.
Lucia Izzolo
I hate to even give this place three stars because I love it and the food is awesome but last night something happened that just didn’t sit well with me. My friend and i ordered the same glass of wine. Hers comes out fine, mine comes out with this sand-like sediment in it. It ruined the taste and got all over the glass, so I didn’t drink it. I thought the glass was just dirty so I told the waitress and she took it and comes back 10 minutes later and says that it’s normal for the wine to have sediment in it at the end of the bottle. I’ve never had wine with sand in it. I thought that was a little weird so I just asked for a new glass. She asked if she could get me her favorite red instead and I said yes. I then waited another 20 minutes to get a new glass of wine and by that time we were practically done with the meal and ready to head out. We get the check and she had charged me for BOTH glasses of wine!! I didn’t even notice until after I paid and I regret not saying something. It just didn’t sit well with me…
Bryan Granda
This place was amazing with great prices.
The hummus and pita chips was the best hummus I've ever had and the Jamon and Manchego Croquettes were life changing.
Marsha Talbot
Best restaurant! They pay attention to every detail. Server was the best too. Shared a variety of small plates and cheese plate too! Drinks are tasty and flavorful. Bathrooms clean. Ambiance is great. Not too loud where you can have a conversation and not yell. Will add some food photos for ya'll!
David Fierros
Phenomenal! Food was amazing!! Service was excellence and charming wrapped up in beyond exceptional!
Bria Stone
Love the tapas and wine! Definitely get a reservation! But always a great time!
Geran Lorraine
The food was great and the service was good. Highly recommend eating at Barcelona if you get the chance!
Matt Dragos
Amazing place. Food is fantastic and drinks were top notch. The wait can be super long. We waited almost 2 hours for a table… just an FYI: get your name on the list and go to Old Glory cocktail bar (it’s right beside it). They will text you when the table is ready.
Only reason it’s not a 5 star is that the music was so loud. I had to yell the entire time just to have a conversation. I also didnt enjoy the music playlist at all. But that’s just personal opinion.
John Nikolaidis
Really good choice. Highly recommend the food. All original ingredients and Spanish tastes
Crymsun Sebastiani
Fun and classy place to go that won't break the bank. The food was great and there is a variatiy to choose from. Small plate selections so you can choose lots of things to try! The server we had was amazing and the wait wasn't long for being so packed! Would recommend and be going again!
Herschel Pollard
Beautiful space. Excellent service at the bar. The food was extremely tasty. Servings were larger than we expected for tapas. We ordered the cheese plate and three share plates, and ended up taking some home. The cheese board is an excellent value and gives a great sample of tastes.
Chrissy Cleveland
Such an amazing experience we where celebrating our 10 year anniversary and they made us feel so special. Great service great food and amazing wine.
Tommy Stokes
Wonderful food. Great atmosphere
Brad Stickel
Coppa Serrana is unreal amazing. Definitely a traditional Spanish/tapas bar, and it’s great.
Joseph Kuc
We are familiar with Tapas from Chicago. This place was so amazing! The service was great, the atmosphere was relaxing, and the food and Sangria was worth every mouthful!
Esorkinc
This restaurant deserves 7 stars. Absolutely great ambience and 8 star meals. I can't think of another restaurant that had better servers. To begin waiting time to be seated was less that 2 minutes and the seating was spacious and friendly. To add, the up tempo music in the background seemed to put diners in a good mood where faces were all smiles. Definitely on my repeat list
wes alan
Awesome tapas! Service has always been great. The martinis could be a bit bigger compared to other restaurants, but other than that, always been great! Highly recommend!! Literally everything we've had there was good
Came back in and they did honor the martini! Food was great as ever!
Valeria Strafe
Excellent place, excellent food, the only thing I would say is that the tables for two are too small and music maybe a bit too laud, but love the place anyway... just change the tables :)
Philip LeDonne
Fun menu with delicious food and great service. Nice ambiance and reasonably priced. A great dinner spot outside of the core!
Spencer Longhurst
Wonderful atmosphere, great food and wine. Great service. Perfect date spot
Brian Griffin
Amazing food and atmosphere - the menu is robust and the service is excellent.
Renee Pollack
This place was incredible! We went for a Bachelorette party and it was perfect. Cute, trendy, excellent wine list, delicious food, and the friendliest servers. Our server Connor was an absolute champ and kept our 6 different orders and bills separate. The bartender mixed our bride a drink even though we'd missed last call. Everything we ate was out of this world and totally worth the price. I'd go back in a heartbeat!
Sophie
Excellent patatas bravas and fresh hot bread. The sangria is nice and refreshing but I wish the fruit would be soaked in the wine for longer.
Angela Martin
Great food! Great service! Atmosphere was spot on!
Irene Mcintyre de la Fuente
I am from Spain and I decided to visit this amazing restaurant and I can only say it was an amazing experience. Croquetas, prawns and flan catalan were my fav. I will go back soon to try their excelent paella an other typical dishes.
Congrats to all the team !!! You’re doing great !!!
Laura Doto
Upbeat and bustling, this tapas place in Edgehill served good food well. The wine list is extensive and they have a good variety of beers and cocktails too. Nice variety of hot and cold tapas -- excellent seafood options, delicious tomato bread, and pleasant wait staff.
Barbara Zats
Amazing! The food was stellar, the wine was great, and our waiter, Chaz, was EXCELLENT! He was professional and helpful with dietary restrictions and just general questions. All around a GREAT experience and Chaz helped make it special. Cannot wait to go back!
Ruby Red
Amazing atmosphere! Thank you to the staff for recommendations and warm hospitality!
Viktoria Chesney
Had reservations lastnight for my Birthday- food was absolutely incredible like always. However….I have no idea if there was a change in management but the music that was being played was so ridiculously loud my fiancé and I felt like we were yelling at each other and could hardly hear our server. The music would have been expected if we were eating at STK. Felt like a cozy vibe-wine bar dropped in the middle of a club. The place was super busy which we were happy to see, but resulted in our server not being able to tend to us. It got to a point where we had a table full of dirty, empty plates- with nowhere for our next plates to be sat and the food runner would not even help clean off the table. Super disappointing- not the same Barcelona we’ve gone to in the past.
Ashley DiGiorgio
Thank you for the service of reaching out and making our experience that much better. Tonight was amazing.
From the food to the drinks.
Service as soon as we walked in to being the last ones out. All 6 of us ladies appreciated and enjoyed our night! Thank you to the GM who reached out, and our server who took the time to be personable and helpful! We had a great night.
Thank you again- NIGHT 2 was exactly how we anticipated our experience to be. You have these NY, PA + GA girls hooked!
Anna Otis
This place is amazing! Love the tapas and wine list.
Kenny Major
The wine was great, and they had a large by the glass or half glass list. We ended up getting 4 half glasses to make our own flight. The half paella was enough for two when paired with some serrano ham and a few tapas.
However, the noise. It has to be the loudest restaurant I have been in. The noise, both from the thumping music made it almost too hard to have a conversation. That would give me pause in booking again.
Tyler Waffle
Went here for an anniversary dinner a couple nights ago and had such a great experience. We went here on our first date and it was just as good. Great wine selection and our server recommended us a really nice sparkling rosé. Their tapas are daunting at first but dont be afraid to ask what your server likes! It makes it fun at least, when there are so many good things to choose from and opportunity to branch out and try new things. The octopus and hummus was so good, and I love their calamari, olives and shishito peppers. This place is amazing, especially if you're looking to try new things!
Cousin Danny Of The Burrow
My wife and I enjoyed a great evening out at Barcelona. We opted to sit at the bar to avoid a short wait. The service was excellent, the bar staff knew the menu well and made excellent suggestions. Food was delicious, drinks were imaginative and affordable. Highly recommend.
William McBride
Actually was looking for another place that was next door that unfortunately closed a couple of weeks ago. Barcelona was great. Very nice vibe. Comfortable music loud enough so you don't hear others' conversation but not too loud to not hear your company. Busy but not hectic. Our server Shauna was outstanding. Very nice, enthusiastic, helpful and knowledgeable on all the menu items. Manager was great too.
Lisa
Love it!😍😍 I looking for seafood paella and it was so delicious. All the food was awesome, try the torrijas there are yummy!
Also the beef empanadas were great tapas. …
Jarrod Stafford
Wow!!! Excellent and authentic Spanish food. Cocktails and wine were great too. A must try in Nashville.
Coco Fen
We live in AZ, but have a condo in Nashville. Every single time we visit we ALWAYS go to Barcelona. We’ve even been to the one in Denver, CO when we were on vacation there. The service is always great, but the food? Oh it is so damn good. The menu does change here and there depending on what’s in season, but there are some tapas that seem to be there all the time. The patatas bravas are like fancy french fries that are absolutely delicious, the aioli is so yummy. Other favorites that I recommend are the ‘jamón & manchego croquetas’, ‘chorizo w/ figs’, ‘grilled chicken thigh’ and ‘grilled hanger steak’. Their scallops are seasonal and have small window when they are available but if they are you will not regret ordering it. Cocktails are amazing, wine list wonderful and extensive and their crepes are awesome! I can’t recommend this place enough!
Bradley Lemma
Just wow!! They made my wife's cocktails tableside that was an awesome touch. Over the top service and literally every bite of our many tapas was full of flavor and just perfectly presented and prepared. We were a 3 top and even with a few really well made cocktails, apps, many courses of tapas, the paella (which was insanely good) our bill was reasonable. Great job on all fronts.
Justin Lee
Best restaurant I’ve visited in a while. The food and service was 11/10. I strongly recommend eating here and was one of the only places I have ever given a 25% tip.
Crista Scott
Barcelona Wine Bar was fantastic! The staff was amazing and the food was phenomenal! I highly recommend coming for a special event! We received complimentary champagne and cake for our anniversary!
Troy Janda
Lively Environment! Excellent Service! Great Food! Wonderful Time! Reasonably priced parking directly across the street. Parking $11 for 3 hours.
Morgon Thomas
The food here was amazing! All of the tapas we tried were great and well made. We ordered 4 to share and paella for 1 split between two and the chicken pimientos. While the paella was truly amazing and everyone was very happy with it, the chicken pimientos truly stole the show. The sauce was amazing and they offered bread to sop up the extra because everyone generally loves it so much. Will be returning for another fine dining night
john mistler
The couple I was out to eat with got into a fight during dinner. I couldn't even eaves drop to get the gossip because I was in a trance by how good the pork was. Get the pork belly and dried/cured meats!!!
Virginia Rios
This is my favorite restaurant in Nashville! Amazing food, amazing staff and location.! Definitely recommended! My only suggestion is the MUSIC, I am musician and going to Barcelona, I always expect to hear Flamenco, authentic music from Spain, something matching with the food and atmosphere, but is always hip hop, pop and music that is nothing to do with this amazing restaurant.
Ben Messner
Strong wine list. Really enjoyed several of the plates. Music too loud which was a bummer but might have just been me that cared
Haiping H
Great food, awesome staff. Placed my online to-go order online today but got slightly delayed due to some system error- the staff kindly offered to refund me 100%. And it was actually my birthday dinner, I really appreciate this kind gesture:) of course, the food was awesome too. Will definitely be back again!! Thank you guys, much love.
Robyn Storey
Absolutely delicious food and allergy friendly! I told our waiter that I am gluten free and dairy free, and he took the menu and wrote all of the things I could have. Definitely recommend!!!
Mary Macchio
Great atmosphere. Veggie Paella was excellent! Wonderful wine selection. Highly recommend. Get there early before the wait.
Andrea Garvey
One of our favorite spots to go for date night or to bring visitors! They have a very accommodating and knowledgeable staff when it comes to allergies. Everything on the menu is delicious! The cheese boards are amazing as well. Great meat and veggie options for everyone. Love the tapas concept, everyone orders a few items and everyone shares. Great because it allows the group to try fun and different foods!! Great cocktails as well. The atmosphere is great for a date night feel (dark and loud-ish). Not a great place for kids, I would say.
Tiffany Damle
This is my favorite restaurant in all of Nashville. I am in love with the ambiance. The wine and the food are exceptional, unique and fairly priced. Above all else, the staff is charismatic and passionate about their jobs. They take great care in their recommendations and service to each patron. I cannot get enough of this place.
Holly Sheridan
Great experience, delicious food. The best we had whilst visiting Nashville! Good for vegetarian options. Our waiter also gave us awesome recommendations of other bars to visit.
Kassidy D'Annolfo
This was our second time here, the food, drinks, and service are all great. The staff went out of their way to accommodate us. We love the mussels and the paella, might try the charcuterie next time.
Cori Wojo
Great time *extensive wine list* amazing service, and delicious food!
Cheri Harr
If I could rate higher I would. Great atmosphere! It's private but open. You aren't cramed like other places. I like the extra touches with the books and outdoor patio area. Plus music was perfect, good quality & not intrusive. The staff are some of the best we've seen. We were greeted right away. We were able to pick our seats too. The general manager Daniel is very friendly and personable. He spent some quality time getting to know us then recommended some dishes for us to try. The food is beyond amazing. We love tapas! You must try the pastas bravas. The wine selection is amazing too. You will definitely not be disappointed. We recommended the restaurant to two other people already during our stay.
Yasser Alzahrani
I liked this restaurant the atmosphere is great, they have a tasty menu also they change most of their menu dishes from time to time. My last visit I ordered the seafood Paella it was on point ❤️🥘 …
Alfredo arguello
Barcelona Wine Bar is an outstanding culinary experience. There are three things I would like to share: (1) the food is exquisite. The flavors are fantastic. We enjoyed the seafood paella, the parrillada Barcelona, charcuterie, calamari and prawns (2) service is prompt, friendly and outstanding. Our main server was John, and he is supported by an additional 3-5 servers (3) the restaurant decor is beautiful. Barcelona Wine Bar has a wonderful atmosphere with great music. Overall, this is one of Nashville’s best restaurant.
Leigh Hendry
The volume level of Barcelona’s techno music is absolutely ear-splitting, which prevents a nice dining experience, unfortunately. The customers sitting to our right mentioned it, as did the couple on our left. Food was very good but I feel like I might need to see an audiologist soon. If we come again, we will go earlier in the evening——well before dancing’ on the bar time.
Charles High
My favorite wine bar restaurant in town. An extensive wine list of Spanish, French and Portuguese wines by the glass or bottle. Sangria is very popular. The menu is mostly tapas, small tasting plates, although there are full meals as well like paella and chicken with peppers. There is a large central bar that I favor and indoor and outdoor table service. It is a lively place with a great vibe. Rely on the wait staff for recommendations and prepare for a fun evening. They serve later than most restaurants. Great service.
Courtney
I also enjoy my outings here. Perfect ambiance for date night or catching up with friends. The olive oil cake is simply delicious. The wine selection is large and easy to navigate. The tapas are yummy and shareable!
Tarina
Highly recommend! The food and wine was outstanding and the service was great. I will definitely dine here again.
Bettina Patyk
Had a wonderful experience at Barcelona. The Roja reserve was outstanding. We started with the risotto tapas as well as the New York strip. Both were very good. My daughter and I were a little confused on the menu and ordered what we thought was a paella but ended up being just cuts of meat. When we told the MGR the mistake we made they rectified it immediately for us. As a fine dining restaurant owner it was a pleasure to see how their staff accommodated us. I would love to employ anyone of them if they are ever in Montana. The paella arrived and was thoroughly enjoyed. When back in Nashville visiting my daughter we definitely be back.

I've only been to this Barcelona Wine Bar, so I have no experience with the many other locations of this chain. This one is fantastic, especially for large groups. Twice now, I've brought in over a dozen people, and both times, all of us enjoyed the food, drinks, atmosphere, and impeccable service. Sharing lots of dishes is my preference for group dining, and Barcelona Wine Bar makes it easy. Plus, there are plenty of options on the menu if your group includes vegetarians or vegans.

The food, sevice, and atmosphere where great! Our servers were very attentive and knowledgeable. My husband wanted dressing that the restaurant did not carry. Which was not an issue with him at all but a Barcelona employee went to the restaurant next door to get the dressing my husband wanted! Now that is amazing customer service!! The food was awesome! We ordered quite a few different Tapas and every single one of them was perfect.

If you're someone like me who can never decide what to order because everything sounds good, this is the place for you. Tapas are perfect for getting a little bit of everything and its the kind of menu where you can't go wrong no matter what you order! The servers never miss the mark when I describe to them what wine I'm looking for. It's one of my go-to restaurants!
Steve Malloy
Tapas! I went there with some friends and we had a really wonderful time with food, the environment, and the staff. We were excited to try the different Spanish fare and so we ordered a lot of the traditional items (a meat and cheese appetizer platter, several tapas, and paella.) Everything was delicious! And our waitress was fun and enjoying us as we explored the various foods. She even brought out free scallops (her favorite tapa) free just so we could try it. And it was awesome! The outdoor seating area where we were was very nicely designed with good landscaping and planters around. And then.... I was very pleasantly surprised by the bill as well. I wouldn't say this place is cheap - it not - but it was about half of what i was expecting it to be due to all the food we ordered. Anyway, I'll definitely be going back, especially when I want to go to a nicer place with more interesting foods to choose from.

Tonight we celebrated Valentine’s Day with our 8 month old Daughter tagging along! The whole staff was so sweet per usual and the food was incredible. Fourth visit, ordered different items each time and have yet to eat something we didn’t thoroughly enjoy! Special shout out to the General Manager Dan G. for making our night out with the little one extra special. He checked on us multiple times to make sure that we were being taken care of. His professionalism and hospitality is over and beyond. It makes perfect since why quality and service is top notch here with a GM like that!!
Steve Erikson
One of my favorite restaurants in Nashville Tennessee. Go by say hello to Patrick he'll treat you well behind the bar.
A Nash
The food🤤sooo good. I suggest getting small servings of various things to try everything!!
David Rosenberg
Come here to be met by the Friendly engaging staff. Dan the manager will personally ensure you have a fantastic meal (which you will). Meredith our server was first rate. Spot on with suggestions and the food was AMAZING! They have an extensive wine list if you would like...
Jake “Jbrasher0014” Brasher
Never having visited this place before we didn’t realize you should make a reservation in advance. It was about an hour wait to sit in and eat. We decided to order food to go instead and was very happy with the food and even happier with the service! I believe the games name was Mitchell? He was taking peoples names for seats. He took great care and made our first visit memorable. We will be going back!
Mia Weiland
Beautiful experience dining here on numerous occasions! Make sure to get a reservation as they are always quite packed.
Dana Spears
Great variety of tapas and salads. Good service. Unfortunately the music was turned up to a painful level the last 1/2 hr we were there making conversation almost impossible.
Byron Pipkin
Great neighborhood location a few miles from downtown Nashville. The decor and vibe is good. Only downside from my perspective is the music is too loud so talking requires a very loud voice which results in an overall very loud atmosphere inside. They do have outdoor patio seating. Food is unique tapas plates and good, prices are ok, definitely not cheap.
Health Food N Soul International
One of my favorite go to spots for great food, cocktails, and the staff is always amazing!
Kya G
Great service and fun atmosphere! Food was good.
mariya feldman
This place is amazing. I have my reasons for loving this place food and drink wise but the people that work there from the servers to the chefs and especially the hosts Dan and Lauren are super hospitable and take care of their customers.
I went there and all the tables and bar seating was unavailable but Lauren and Dan hooked me up with absolute joy. People like them is why I moved to Nashville.
Sendy Nguyen
Love this place! Hands down, definitely one of my favorite places here in Nashville TN. Their tapas and wine menu is out of this world! It has a very energizing feel to the environment and the service is amazing. Mitchell, one of the managers, personally goes out of his way to ensure everyone feels welcomed and taken care of. The staff seems knowledgeable regarding wine suggestions as well! Great place, I highly recommend this place!
Kortney Pauga
Every single plate that came out we absolutely devoured. We had amazing service and the wine was also amazing. Decently priced tapas and out of this world flavor. Will be back!!
Jacob Vander-Starre
Ryan is the man! Every bit of food was amazing! That olive oil cake....yummmmm!!!
Richard Huffman
My wife loves Tapas but I've never been a fan. Barcelona's changed that..... the Spicy Empenadas were amazing. Would happily try Tapas again if they are as good as Barcelona Wine Bar's.
Jimmy Harper
they take the social distancing to the extreme with what appeared to be a 10 foot rule which made the wait a little long but still an amazing experience. Good wine and service. only came in for a bottle of wine and enjoy a date night. Thanks again to the staff for the excellent service.
Adrienne Kane
Amazing, spontaneous time. Shauna and the team went ABOVE AND BEYOND to show us an amazing time! The food was on point in every way. I loved the wine list as well. A must-see in Nashville.
Nick Buehring
Fantastic food and a great atmosphere. We had trouble choosing what tapas to get because everything looked so good. Will definitely be going back to try more because everything was spectacular.
KC Johns
Food was incredible, staff was insanely nice. Have already been back a few times :)
Courtney Teasley
One of my favorite brunch places in Nashville!
Ricardo Reyes
My first time here and it was a good experience. We had a large party of 10 and had made reservations in advance. Still, we had to wait roughly 30 - 45 minutes to be seated. Our server was great, very friendly, always had a smile and more importantly knew the menu and had patience with us all.
In appreciation of the time we had to wait, management gave us some free samples which was AWESOME. The food was all delicious even for us who had no idea what we were ordering (first time here and not sophisticated foodie hipsters).
Will definitely come back!
Calley Connelly
This is my favorite dinner place in Nashville. And as a person who literally wants to try everything on the menu, this is the place for indecisive people like me! Tapas are the way to go. Literally everything is good, but the restaurant bread that they serve here might have my heart for eternity. So good! A must visit if you are in town.
Sherrie Daseler
Having traveled to Barcelona Spain, let me say this place does not disappoint. From the standard menu items to the chef specials the food was exceptional. The service, attention and atmosphere led to our fabulous experience. Our new favorite place!
Christopher Schultz

Sara Framalin
Loved this spot! Very cute and trendy. We arrived early for our reservation and the hostess still sat us which was much appreciated. We had a great cheese board (we chose drunket goat, mahon and jamon serrano) also tried 3 of the tapas which were all AMAZING - grilled broccolini, patatas bravas and chorizo w/sweet & sour figs. Highly recommend this spot!
Anna B
Tapas were to die for! Our server was amazing and had a great sense of humor. Highly recommend
Richard Harkess
Great food, atmosphere and service. Try the Sangria.
Mario Neita
While visiting Nashville, my family and I had great service and great food. Mitchel was very accommodating to my wife who did not like her choice. Jenny our server made sure that a member of our party with food allergies was shared with the chef and they were given the options best for them. We had a variety of dishes from meat to vegetarian. The chicken pimento was amazing.
Nikki Madden
Delicioso! We had a great visit and enjoyed all the tapas but particularly the chorizo with figs. Highly recommend for the great food and friendly service. Make a reservation if you can plan ahead!
Darryl Martin
Are here with friends on NYE, and both the food and service was amazing!
Leo Cantu
My wife and I had a fabulous dining experience at Barcelona. Great wine and excellent food, so many delicious choices! Highly recommend.
Ian Mac Moore
Terrific brunch, very difficult to choose what to order. Got the sense I couldn't go wrong.
Rob Dickey
If I could give half ratings Barcelona Wine Bar would get 3.5 stars. I consider three to be average and Barcelona is above average. The food is good and the atmosphere is fun and eclectic. What I really noticed was it was clean. I tend to notice dust and cobwebs on the décor and ceiling vents and such at many restaurants. Barcelona Wine Bar had none of that.
More on the food...their charcuterie selection is really good and I like the "you pick", mix & match option. Wine selection is decent but not as diverse as I would expect from a place with "wine bar" in the name. We did not partake in the tapas but did two of the large plate paella's instead (mariscos & salvaje). Portions were great. The half order is more than enough for one person. The salvaje was a bit too salty but still pretty good.
For desert we had the burnt basque cheesecake and two shots of espresso. This is where the meal fell apart. I get that with a tapas restaurant things come out to the table as they are cooked so you have a constant flow of different foods coming. However, they brought out one shot of espresso and then we waited and waited and waited then the second shot of expresso then we waited and waited and waited then the cheesecake. By the time the cheesecake arrived one espresso was cold and the second was barely lukewarm. You would think the server would understand you're ordering the coffee to come with the desert to complement each other in a sweet vs. bitter taste experience.
To top it all off, there isn't much parking available for the restaurant. It is located in a residential neighborhood at the end of a street with several other restaurants and shops. You either park on the street or in a small pay to park lot across the street. The pay station is electronic with no actual attendant onsite. Options to pay are 1hr $9, 3hrs $21, or 8 hrs $48. I couldn't imagine it taking three hours to get a meal and get out so I opted for one hour. My mistake it took nearly two hours and by the time we got out to our car there was a handy dandy little guy in a car driving through the lot and putting wheel locking boots on cars that had gone over their time. It subsequently cost me $67 to get the boot removed from my car so we could leave. I'd like to say next time I'll opt for the three hour parking but I don't think there will be a next time. I'll give my business to restaurants that have or validate parking. The experience ruined what otherwise would have been a very pleasant experience.
Yves Toleno
This was the third time there and first under covid. Managed to get a nice day so we sat outside. Patrons were not good about masking between eating and drinking. Staff was great and consistently masked. The big winner as always are the food and drinks. They have fun and interesting drink menus and everything tapas is just perfect.
Kylie Nadeau
I LOVE Barcelona. It is one of my top favorite restaurants in the city. We went a few weeks ago during COVID-19 times and the tables were so spaced out. We felt really secure, but had excellent service, food and drinks. I love being able to support this place. It really is a wonderful ambience and all around experience from beginning to end!
Mackenzie Watson
I went to this restaurant wanting a good glass of wine, and I got so much more that. We ended up having 7 or 8 tapas followed by a dessert of cheesecake which was unbelievable. The best thing about the entire meal was the server, Nesh. He helped us go through each of the tapas and explained which were his favorites and why. He even wrote down the wine I had so that I could get it later! It was the best service I have received at any restaurant in Nashville. We loved it so much that we have already sent so many of our friends to get dinner there because we loved it so much. I highly highly recommend giving this place a try! It will become one of your favorites in town!
Mark Anthony Cordero
Its one of the places that surprised me and my friend. Its kind of rustic and has a spanish theme to be honest that we love. The food were amazing and priced well. Although the tapas portion were a little bit underwhelming so order at least 3 or 4. On the upside, the paella double portion may be shared by 3 people. Also reasonably priced. I ordered a cocktail. I forgot what it was but I loved it. We sat in the bar area and our server comes and checks on us ever so frequently. Thank you! I will come back for the ambience, the paella, the cocktail and the service!
(We had a free plate of mixed sausages and cheese - maybe it was supposed to be for someone else but we were told it was on the house and its free food so big thankyou! Although my friend doesnt eat pork so I ate the meat by myself and its Ahhhmazing!) See you again soon!
Sarah P
Edit:
The acoustics in this place are still less than desirable, but if you pick a patio spot, it's a MUCH better experience! After leaving a 3-star review, the manager reached out to me directly and assured me he'd like to take care of me and my 3 girlfriends that had originally dined here together. Take care of us he did! We came in and were given preference on seating, as well as two servers that worked in tandem to take care of us for THREE hours. Dan is a new manager to this location and is really about getting things on track in the experience department. And, as previously stated, the food is flavorful and unique. This was an exceptional experience and we'll definitely be back!
Loud and fullllll of 20- something hipsters. The service was meh, but the tapas were unique and flavorful. We were on time for our reservation and still ended up waiting an hour. With a host of amazing restaurants in Nashville, this wouldn't be my first choice to go back to. Maybe brunch or lunch on a weekday would be a better experience, but good god this place was so loud and cramped.
Bean Family
This place is the exception in a city with many options. Our food was outstanding, the sangria was perfect and the service made you feel welcome, so welcome that you will want to return to see your new friends!
The manager Mitchell took the time to introduce Erin and Kaitlyn and a training server. Each one of them made suggestions - trout, flank steak potatoes and a cheese board to name a few, will try and save room for dessert next time. BARCELONA checked all the boxes with five stars setting, food, wine and service all at a price that will not empty your wallet.
Alice Stribling
I went there while visiting my son and his girlfriend in Nashville in October. The vibe there was great! We found some wine that we loved, and shared a lot of the little plates. The food was wonderful and the service was very good. I would definitely go back. Wine and tapas, what else do you need?
Sammie Broadway
I really love this restaurant's menu, but I wish they would expand. Every time we go there we have no where to stand or sit while we wait for a table. The patio is warm in the winter but there are way too many tables on the patio to be comfortable. We had to wait two hours for a table on my birthday when we had reservations. The host was so rude to us about the wait, and then we had to wait another 30 minutes on a bottle of wine. We only continue to go back because of the food.
Rigoberto Labrador
Three stars ‘cause Paella was burned. But, we have a blast with service and cocktails. Thanks Jaden for carry out!
Brittanie “ItsBritt” Owens
The food was amazing. Especially the meat balls. The pork belly was a little light on flavor and seasoning but the texture was perfect. The mood in the restaurant was glamorous and sexy. I will definitely be coming back.
Desiree Cocco-Costello
Great Service and Amazing Food. Our server was simply phenomenal. Being a group of indecisive individuals and fear of choosing something we possibly wouldn't like, we handed the reins over to our server. He took this in stride, and presented us with three rounds of 4 different mouth-watering tapas! The best part, we had no idea which ones he choose until they arrived at our table, where he then proceeded to describe each choice. It was a remarkable experience and truly made us feel like we were experiencing a private tasting! Absolutely every single choice was extraordinary. Highly - highly recommend!!!
J P
So representative of Spanish cuisine. Lived in Madrid for a year and everything I tasted brought me right back to those cobblestone streets. Executive Chef Axton Jarvis, Sous Chef Chris Hoppie & Daniel Boggs were spot on with the tortilla, albóndigas, croquetas, and papas bravas down to the dish that the spanish meatballs were served in. Great ambiance, service and amazing wine selection, started with Cava and then tried three different glasses of Rioja and the 2014 Nucerro did not disappoint. Come here and tell your friends!
Laura Dillon
I've never left a tapas place full until I went to Barcelona! We opted in for the $35/person deal where they bring a large selection of dishes (their choice), which was perfect for our group of 11. (This did not include drinks.) While we were a bit hesitant to commit to the deal because of the mystery of it, everyone was impressed. I would guess we tried about 10-15 different dishes and didn't have to deal with the headache of ordering enough portions and selection for a large group. Thank you!
Kendra Hayslett
We had a great time! Monday is half price wine bottle night, so that was a real treat! We had drinks as well, and they were tasty and on point. The tapas were delish, quaint, tasty, and filling without being over done. We were celebrating my birthday and our server gifted us a free surprise treat which was extra tasty. I love the atmosphere and the set up...perfect for date night or a group of friends.
Nikki Filkins
Amazing food in a great atmosphere. The staff genuinely care about your experience, they have multiple people check on you during your meal and go above and beyond to make sure its 5 stars. This is my new favorite place in Nashville and i cant believe its taken me this long to go. Cant wait to go back!!!
Evan Sander
I loved coming to Barcelona before this last time but they really made an impact last night. There were a couple long wait times for sitting when we had a reservation, getting our drinks, and also getting a few tapas but both our server and manager acknowledged the waits and apologized and made sure we were taken care of the entire meal. The wait times for things weren’t much longer than I would typically expect but just having them being on top of customer service was a breath of fresh air in the Nashville restaurant climate.
Sadie Eichner
Although the menu promises unique and tasty tapas, I felt that the execution was lacking. A lot of overcooked grains and veggies led to mushy meals where the flavors were hard to find. The desserts were portioned larger than most of the tapas, and tasted like they had been made earlier that week. The best part of the meal by far was the mushroom tapas, which blew everything else away. It was fresh and perfectly cooked. They have an extensive wine selection, and our sever did an excellent job recommending some good glasses. I would give this place another try and hope that the kitchen was having a bad night, but it was hard to pay $8 for two tiny, mushy peppers with a flavorless tuna salad inside.
John Pishotta
With a bit of a rustic feel, we enjoyed our time and meal here. The service was good considering the size of group (16).
Note there is valet parking available but it was difficult to spot. Their stand is on the sidewalk and there were cars parked in front of it. Either way, there was easy parking in the pay lot less than a block away.
Raz Berry
This is one of the restaurants that you can feel, might be worth the money. The portions aren't down south sized but they are prepared very well. The service is always great and half priced bottles on Monday is a great bonus! I'm sure to return many more times, you should as well. #TreatYourself
Ani Osborne
Definitely a place to go with a group of people so you can order all the tapas and taste them all. They were very fast too.
Colleen Kuh
I am a native Floridian with Spanish heritage- the croquettes are the first I have had in the TN, Nashville area and they are to die for! The aoli pairing was spot on. I love the bacon wrapped dates and their queso, like their cheesecake was perfectly browned- the crisp burn I have been missing in other establishments! We sat at the bar and felt at home as young, tattooed professionals. When we were seated at a 2 person table, we were accommodated at a larger table with nonhassle whatsoever. Server was knowledgeable, friendly and beautiful and the manager was respectable and accommodating. This is a new favorite love of a restaurant. We highly enjoyed the experience and recommend to any who inquire!
Rachel Kingree
Absolutely amazing. We’d never been to a tapas place before and the waitress was so kind to explain. Nearly everything is gluten free which was great for my daughter. Really enjoyed all our dishes and dessert was lovely as well. Will definitely return.
J N
Great service and good
Prices
Britney Elliott
The ambiance is fantastic and the staff was friendly. The food however was overdone and mediocre. The foods all could have been so much better if their inherent flavors were celebrated instead of masked in sauces. They seemed to have tried too hard with their menu and didn’t nail it.
Patrick Blanton
The waitresses were very friendly and the food was out quick and it was good. Pricing was not bad either. What a great time.
Ellen Shaw
My husband and I were visiting from out of town and went to Barcelona for our "date night". It was absolutely wonderful and we had an amazing time. All of our waitresses/waiter were friendly and knowledgeable, the wine was good, and the food was delicious. We would definitely recommend to anyone!
Nate Weston
This place is fantastic. Patrick and Andrew gave wonderful suggestions for food and drinks, but something tells me everything on the menu is amazing. Also, the food flies out of the kitchen, leading you to wonder how such delicious food can be prepared so quickly. And yes, I tried a few wines, and a tasty glass of whiskey, but I assure you... This is not the alcohol talking. Did I mention the service rocks too!... Footnote, the prices are great, but don't think you can get full and satisfied for $15
John Vigilante
Great night of dining. Speciality cocktails were great!
Marco Zaccheroni
I've been there many times since Barcelona opened. Tapas, seafood, meat, wine, bread and olive oil as well are very good and I highly recommend to go there!!!
It's a must make a reservation to be sure to find a place.
Note as per my experience: I went there with many friends (group of 12) we wait almost one hour even with reservation, later on we order paella that was overcooked and we had to wait a lot as well.
But this was the first of twenty times...
Still a wonderful place and I'll be back soon.
Jeff Tamillo
Amazing tapas and good wines. Very helpful bar & wait staff. Gets loud enough to make conversation difficult, but the food makes up for that.
A Shannon
Sat down to dinner outside on a particularly warm evening and asked our waiter Nick if we’d be able to move inside. He made every effort on our behalf to make that happen even though we ended up changing our minds. A nearby table was rather rowdy and Nick made an above and beyond effort to compensate for their impact on our evening. Walked away having had a delicious meal and memorable experience all while having a great connection with not only Nick but also the General Managers (Dan and Mitchell) as a result of the odd situation at hand. An attentive waiter and thoughtful manager made all the difference re: some rather weird vibes. Will absolutely be returning. Fabulous experience (food, atmosphere, and experience) all things considered!
Hillary Drury
Love sitting at the bar eating tapas! Cocktails are a must try! Soooo good!
Jaclyn Collett
I absolutely loved this place! The waiter was super friendly and knowledgeable. He recommended the perfect wine pairings. Every bite we ate was scrumptious. I loved the pasta (not sure of name). The patatas bravas were packed with flavor. The charcuterie board was such a generous size for 1 person, we couldn't finish it all. The flatbread was heaven in every bite, the perfect amount of cheese and greens.
Dan Schweikhard
Great atmosphere, wine, food, and service. Me and my wife had a lovely date here. We went on a weeknight and there wasn't a wait. We each had a glass of wine, a meat and cheese as an appetizer, and split 5 tapas. The meal was wonderful and just the right amount of food for two people. Our bill was $70
Amaury Perez
The worst thing of Barcelona take-out is not having the unlimited bread and olive oil that they offer!
Seriously, both dine-in and take-out, Barcelona has been the best restaurant Nashville has to offer. The quality of food has been consistently amazing throughout the years. Barcelona never fails to deliver. Thank you guys for everything, we seriously love you!
Dan Hughson
We came to Nashville to visit our daughter for Thanksgiving and her birthday. We had eaten here a year ago and thought it was excellent, so when she asked us where we wanted to go out I immediately thought of the Barcelona Wine Bar. Food once again was excellent and the service was great. Thanks for the Birthday deserts, both were awesome!
Deb McCarey
Great service, explained the food and suggested wines.
Very tasty tapas, especially Spanish ham and loved the rose.
Ryan Rossell
Ate e bunch of apps with a pitcher of Sangria. Couldn't have been more perfect. Highly recommend.
Kelsey Fasig
The food was really good, however a better description of each tapas would be appreciated. However i made a reservation and confirmed it for 7:15 on Saturday night, we didn't get sat for another 45 minutes. People who walked in off the street were sat before us, and we were just 2 people. You can't hear yourself think in there. the music is so loud and everyone is screaming to be heard over each other and the music. The paella was burnt which broker my heart cause that is what i was most excited to try. for a bill over $100.00 you would think the restaurant had their stuff together.
Update: The Manager contacted me and was really great and extremely helpful.
Amy Roberson
Amazing. I can't wait until my next trip so I can try the things on the menu that I wasn't able to get to this time! (And everything I had was great: setas, boquerones, croquetas, and patatas bravas, plus the Root gin & tonic and several wines.)
Great vibe, fantastic food and drink, and the service was top notch.
Ed VanVoorhees
We always have an awesome experience. The staff is very knowledgeable about their tapas. Ask for advice! The wine list is extensive and offers many unusual Iberian and South American options. Reservations are a good idea.
Robert McClaugherty
Fantastic tapas bar in Edgehill neighborhood. Great selection of small plates, our favorites being Tuna Crudo, Albondigas, Grilled Broccolini, and Jamon & Manchego croquetas. The Nucerro Reserva Tempranillo is to die for (they have a proprietary relationship with the winemaker Rioja). The staff are friendly and helpful and the atmosphere is relaxed.
M O
Beautiful place and delicious food. Our server was helpful and kind. The only bad thing is that it is super busy. Reservation needs to be done way ahead of time.
Jay D'Alba
Excellent wine bar!
Nice selection. Tasty food!
Except for the noise level, you could be sitting in Europe!
Connie Shao
Great wine selection and good tapas. Recommend 1-2 small plates per person. Olive oil cake is the best!!
UB Lopez
We've been to Barcelona a few times and it never disappoints. The food quality is always great and they have a wide selection of small plates. While it's not a true tapas place like you'd get in Spain the atmosphere is close. The wine selection is vast with many great choices. Desert is very good and as an added bonus they serve La Colombe coffee, an east coast roaster, which is possibly my favorite roaster. Great to see a restaurant handle all courses of the menu in a dedicated manner.
Brooke Raudry
Love this place! Tapas may be my new obsession! We usually order 3 small plates a piece and share! My personal fave is the potatos bravas! Their cocktails are amazing- love the Bourbon Spice Rack! Half price bottles of wine on Mondays! Service has always been spectacular. If you've never a tapas restaurant, give this one a try! It's fun to try new things, and I promise you that you will not leave hungry!!
Todd Adams
Barcelona is a treasure in Nashville. It is a singular foodie experience, nothing else like it in this city. Genuine, authentic Spanish style tapas with one of the best, most diverse wine lists in town.
Pete Stoli (Pstoli)
I was going to leave a 3-4 star review but the service here was amazing! The tapas were amazing the Paella was old and tasted like the Great Depression would have! Lol but Stevie fixed our issues and Alex our server was amazing this is a place you want to go to!! Could not recommend a place with better service!!
Jim Fisher
Beautiful bar area, comfortable open dining room. TAPAS!!! TAPAS!!! TAPAS!!! Some of the best small dish food around! Inventive and delicious. Wide variety of menu items to excite any desire. Staff very knowledgeable about their menu, very friendly and efficient.
Scott Womer
Always such a consistently good meal. The wait staff is professional which is not often the case in Nashville. They can actually recommend a good bottle of wine and they don't try and push anything on you. I always start with the almonds and olives, soo good!
James Guschke
I love this place I think it's delicious every time always clean always feel safe everybody's super nice very professional and the food quality is out of this world!
Edited to add:
Wow, a personal shout out on my review! That's great! I'll be back soon, and bring some friends next time!
Ariel Cohen
Great food, beautiful atmosphere! Good tip: if your famished for lunch sized portion and sharing with one other. Go for 4-5 tapas, if your gas tank is low and your filling it all the way up, go for 5-7. Some of the small plates are bigger then they seem.
Courtney Savino
Really great place. My husband and I felt like we were still in NYC. We got a spot at the bar right away which was like a rectangle or square shape. We had drinks and appetizers. The drink menu was interesting and unique. We really loved the shishito peppers. My husband wasn’t feeling his best and the bartender made him a drink to help! He was soo awesome! Great food, atmosphere, and bartenders!
Sharon Gautier
The food was amazing, reasonably priced and our server Meredith even helped to identify vegan options. She made it a wonderful experience for all.
Harshavardhan Reddy
Beet salad was delicious. Paella veg did not have much flavor in it, don't order it.
Boo
I desperately love the family style and tradition a tapas bar brings to the local culture. Finding them open and available for full service on a Sunday afternoon was a sheer delight. A great day for friends and wine and really delicately flavored yet satisfying food to dazzle your taste buds. The charcuterie was delicious and having different choices of sheep's milk cheese was a nice surprise. The Ramao and the manchego were both sheep's cheeses but so different in both texture and flavor. The eggplant was both sweet and spicy, blending both texture and flavor for a well balanced dish. The grits were rich but not overwhelming.
Two concerns did come up, one immediately addressed; several of the glasses in our flights were not well polished, to put it nicely. They were immediately replaced. I do think a better selection of olives and the option for a larger variety of cheeses for a small table would be a nice addition to the menu.
Overall, I would absolutely return for a beautiful day on the patio garden.
Matthew Wade
Great food, friendly staff, fantastic wine. Recommend reservations
DR. Annette Gallardo PhD
Wonderful food!! I want to thank our waiter Colt that took the time to listen to my food allergies and accommodate a wonderful lunch to enjoy. We will be back soon.
Candace Taylor
Wonderful appetizers and great ambiance
Emily Baldwin
My boyfriend took me here for my birthday just recently and every single.thing we had was PHENOMENAL. meatballs, swordfish (To die for), bread, chorizo, pearl onions, kale/spinach with chickpeas, and half price bottles of wine the night wr went! Our bartender was SUPERB!!! I have HIGHLY recommended this to all of my friends & even some strangers visiting Nashville & will continue to do so. We cannot wait to go back again. The setting was beautiful & the atmosphere made us feel like we were back in Mendoza, Argentina!
Jennifer Pelache
Food is incredible, we had 7 plates split between 2 people and it was great. Each dish brings an amazing new flavor that is perfectly cooked. The drinks are great too!
Kristina Wiggins
Beautiful brunch spot! I sat outside with a group of girls on a Saturday morning at 11am. The outdoor seating was well shaded and empty when we arrived. We asked to be moved to a larger table, to fit all our tapas & sangria glasses.
The menu offered plenty of fun tapas, something for everyone. We ordered a bunch to share. My favorite was the chicken & churros the cinnamon sugar + syrup combination with crispy chicken was truly delicious. My second favorite was the jamon and manchego croquettes, they were surprisingly light and flavorful.
The sangria was sweet and filled with fruit, I enjoyed it. They also offered a self-serve mimosa bar with fun accompaniments.

We went to Barcelona on a Wednesday evening. We were seated promptly, but it took quite a while for our servers to make their way over to us. But once the got to us they were very attentive and made us feel like we were the only ones in the restaurant. Barcelona's menu is unique. They serve tapas which are small plates to share. It's ok if you aren't familiar with the terms used on the menu. Just ask your server to walk you through anything you don't know. They're very helpful. We went with the short rib (real good), octopus (delicious), and beef empanadas (if you like the taste of sloppy joes then this is for you). The servers also bring out complimentary bread and olive oil. We went with a large plate to share as well. The chicken pimiento is some of the best chicken I have had. It was simply chicken, potatoes, and peppers but man oh man it was like a symphony in my mouth. I highly recommend it. We plan to be back. It's a great place for drinks and a snack before a night out, a get together with friends, or a fun date spot. They also like to know if you are celebrating anything. That was a cool touch. They brought out a free chocolate dessert for my birthday. Don't be intimidated by the crazy words and lingo. You can't go wrong with any of the choices.

Barcelona was amazing. The waiters were super personal without being overbearing. The food, while a little more expensive, is definitely worth it. The drink and wine list is amazing. Love it!
Laurencio Ronquillo
This place has an AMAZING menu. The service whether at bar or table is excellent. The ambiance and facilities are clean inviting modern.
The staff is as friendly as it gets and quick service. The price value is excellent for a night out in Nashville.
Cassi Patterson
Incredible place. The food was unique tapas style. Enjoy everything!
Alex Hannan
Amazing place for any occasion!! From date night to retirement party Barcelona Wine Bar has all you want! The food is amazing and they have a great drink selection! I would highly recommend stopping in for either a drink and a small plate or an amazing entre dinner experience!

We recently moved to Nashville and Barcelona Wine Bar is our favorite restaurant of anywhere we have ever lived. The constantly changing menu is fresh and exciting - probably the most amazing, creative, tasty, interesting, and unique dishes we've ever had anywhere. And the wine! Extensive wine selections, from Spain of course, that we are enjoying exploring on every Monday half-priced bottle night. My husband and I are on a keto diet and find it so easy to stay on our plan, yet have gourmet food. I'm tempted to knock off a star or two for the way-too-loud music inside, but the staff is so super friendly and helpful, the food is over the top delicious - and we sit outside whenever we can and avoid the noise. Maybe they could make Mondays half-volume music night too!
Jason Kneese
My wife and I checked this place out for an anniversary trip to Nashville. We loved it. The atmosphere was awesome and the tapas were outstanding. We ended up spending quite a bit because we wanted to try as much as we could while we were here and in Nashville. We definitely recommend checking this place out.
Dorthy
Great place. Honestly the only thing I was really disappointed with were the garlic shrimp. For me personally I thought they were really small for the price and they were way over cooked. Everything else was amazing! Will definitely be back!
Carissa K. Seidl
This place is a must for a date, family in town, or a girls night out. There is something for everyone. I enjoy sitting at the bar but the tables are of course excellent as well. Try everything..you won’t be disappointed!

My husband and I are huge fans of tapas... mostly because we are both very indecisive. I’ve found that there are some tapas places that have large portions where four plates between two people would be more than enough and some places that have smaller plates where you need five or six plates. We ordered five dishes at Barcelona, and it was the perfect amount. The veggie/patatas dishes were very big but meat dishes were small. Everything was very good, and the service was great until the end when we waited a long time just to be handed the check. Here’s a breakdown of what we ordered so you will have some recommendations:
Sangria- we ALWAYS order sangria with tapas. At Barcelona, the pitcher is not your usual carafe-size, it’s a huge beer pitcher. We felt overwhelmed when they sat it on our table. However, the sangria was much weaker than the usual brandy sangria at most tapas places, so no worries!
Shishito peppers- you can’t go wrong with shishito peppers. They were great!
Patatas bravas- I’ve had patatas bravas at every tapas place imaginable, and these are some of the best. The sauces aren’t hot, so it’s not necessary to ask for it on the side. The potatoes are the perfect size. This is a must for when I go back!
Croquettes- These were surprisingly very good and a great price. I highly recommend!
Steak- It was okay but not anything overwhelming.
Gambas- They were good but very garlicky. If you aren’t a garlic fan, avoid the shrimp. If you are, go for it! They tasted good and we got 5 to share.
Crepes- This was the only dessert option that looked appealing, and I’m so happy we got it. Very good!!
Bartholomew Roland
I went here on a date last night and loved it! First, the service was fast, friendly, and terrific. The food was pretty good, and the wine selection was a host of good Spanish and Argentinean wines (at least the reds).
Vanessa Ibarra Londoño
Excellent food and wine but even better service. Our server Alayna was so friendly and helpful. If you go to Nashville don’t pass on this place.
Chanel Patel
Great evening vibe, good music & service, the night we went it was beyond busy—we didn’t have a reservation so we waited about an hour and went to a nearby bar to kill time.
Our server was awesome! Very attentive and knowledgeable with what to order etc.
This place was so good that we went to the DC location the following weekend—def. a must try!
Jessica To'oto'o
Normally LOVE Barcelona but last night was kind of a bummer. We had to wait 30 minutes after our reservation time for a table, and then they were out of so much stuff we ordered! Certain wines, Burrata, croquetas, and the cheese we wanted. The steak tapas we ordered came an hour after everything else and other servers kept trying to bring food meant for other tables to our table. And our server kept taking things away from our table before we were completely done, and asking every few minutes if he could take the plates away. Was a very weird experience last night!
Logan Gray
Menu is rather unclear, food is carefully prepared and interesting although the price is a little high for the quantity. The wait staff is very helpful and friendly though and will answer any questions (you’ll likely have a lot). There are many choices, great atmosphere, and overall it’s a wonderful, light meal.
Tasha Meyer
Great service, very knowledgeable about wine and food pairings, and very attentive. Food was on point! Claire is super friendly and Heather ensured we enjoyed every course of our dinner. My husband and I couldn't be happier with our experience!
Alex B
Nice place to eat and have some drinks. Decent size inside and some patio space to eat outside. The menu consists of various small plates, appetizers, and drinks. A few main entrees are offered and we were told they can take up to 40 minutes to be prepared. Overall, nice atmosphere!
Nick Dillard
Great spot if you’re looking to impress a significant other or a first date! All their tapas are amazing, but you cannot leave without trying the olive oil cake!
Andrew Goodwyn
I mean, if you like sodosopa then you will like this place. The food is good, but be ready to pay a fair amount because it is a bit of a nicer place. Definitely a cool spot to take your parents if they are in town and want to pay for you. haha
Michael Baron
I lived in Spain for about two and a half years, and immersed myself in the food culture there. I have honestly not been to a more authentic Spanish restaurant than this since I've been back to the U.S. Everything was exceptional and would make any Spaniard feel at home. The menu, and more importantly the tastes, took me straight back to memories of the dishes I've had dozens of times before. The simple tests passed with flying colors: tortilla de patatas and jamón serrano. On par with anything I ever ate in Spain. So glad this place exists in Nashville, and I'll be back for more tastes of my home away from home.
Joseph Browning
One of best restaurants I've ever eaten. The server, Jenny, was kind and genuine. The food was fresh and delicious. An amazing experience
Libby Anthony
My boyfriend and I went on Wednesday night for an early Valentine’s Day dinner. I made a reservation online and got seated promptly at the reso time. They were full and busy which is always a good sign. Definitely recommend the BarCava sparkling wine! It goes great with the charcuterie appetizer. Also recommend the brussels sprouts, the hanger steak, the pork belly, and the patatas bravas. Thank you Peyton and Axel for being so great with service. We will be back!
Megan Evans
The food was AMAZING! Pretty much sampled a little bit of everything with my table of friends. Great ambiance. The tables are pretty close together but I'd rather be a cozy to other groups than to have a crazy wait because they chose to use less seating.
サシミ牧師
Excellent wine menu. A charcuterie and cheese selection that would make Urban Grub feel supremely inferior.
Luke Meadows
Great wine selection. Ordered the charcuterie plate and was impressed with the offering. I felt that it was slightly overpriced but if you are in the mood for date night this is a great spot.
Drew Schuler
Where else can you find a stellar wine collection & fresh, farm to market tapas?? Barcelona is a must visit in Nashville, & I always recommend to friends old & new! Check out Old Glory in the alley for a special cocktail afterwards!
Alexander Hendrickson
Not generally a fan of chain restaurants (there's 14 of these in the US, last check) - didn't know it was until after a few visits. Setting that detail aside, the fact it's primarily an eastern establishment (5 locations in CT) brings it up on my scale of interesting spots in Nashville. Gorgeous interior that, like Old Glory behind it, melds the old with the new; exposed brick, the remnants of an old building, with notes of nature and vintage looks. Wine list is fantastic, food is bordering on competitive - can be low on value and occasionally completely off on execution. Spanish tapas style menu with a few larger dishes. Popular spot, so it can often be crowded, and service / wait times tend to suffer. Go for the wine, the atmosphere, and cross your fingers if you're hungry.
Angela McCuiston
The tapas are absolutely incredible, cheese plate filled us up but we couldn't stop there. The wine list is extensive and their cocktails are on point! The ambiance is wonderful and if you have trouble, ask the waiter to just bring you something. The mushroom toast defied logic. Absolutely no reason it could be that good, but it was! Beef empanadas were the only thing I'd pass on, more like Bolognese inside pot pie crust. And the chocolate mousse was not...It was pudding topped with pistachio pudding. Still good, but not mousse. Just stick to what Spain is known for and you can't go wrong!
Daniel Zewde
This is the 2nd time we’ve been in the last year. We went right after noon on a Sunday and hardly had to wait for anything. Our drinks actually took longer to get to the table than the food. It was all fresh and the build your own mimosa bar was a nice touch!
Daniela Menache
The restaurant is beautiful with great vibes and the good was delicious. Having been to Barcelona, they did a great job with the tapas. We went for brunch and had the brunch fideos! Looking forward to coming back to try the paella
Christina Carter
Fantastic place. The staff is knowledgeable and goes out of their way to ensure you have a great experience. The tapas menu is delicious, with enough variety to give even a vegetarian a wonderful sampling.
Dr. Mario Martinez
The reason I am giving three stars to a place with good tapas, wine, and service, is the loud hard rock music that kills the ambience. Also the slice of Manchego cheese was small and overpriced. They should bring a little Spanish, or actually Catalan, music to make it a more authentic place.
Tata Kavlash
Their pork belly tapa is life changing! Really good food, great service and good drinks. Reasonable priced but still on the pricier side. Great atmosphere. I suggest making a reservation because this place is always packed!
Marilyn Rivera, REALTOR
First time in Nashville and went there the first night. Amazing food, and amazing service. A must to experience very good Spanish cuisine.
Anna Sudberry
The calamari is soooo good. The sauce is perfection! I very much enjoy an evening out here with friends - even if there’s a wait, it’s worth it!
Bell
Love Barcelona every single time! Perfect for date night or girl’s night. Make sure to reserve in advance especially on weekends.
Anthony “Akenz” Kenny
Delicious, great service, great menu. It is expensive but you get what you pay for, quality. Portions are good and complimentary bread is fresh and warm!
Karen Blake
Enjoy the tapas, especially the charcuterie options, the meatballs, and the delish chorizo. Friday night hops with young bar hangars, but mixed crowd makes for good people-watching. The valet ran out of spots, so go early!
Shan P.
Excellent atmosphere- very nice staff members with interesting serving quirks. Food was delicious- drink choices were also great. Nothing else like this in the nashville area- but prices for paella seem steep at 25pp. Will be a neighborhood goto.
Dave Lisowski
Meh. Bar and music was extremely loud. We sat at a four top, and people on the "far" end couldn't even hear the server. Most of the patrons are there to drink, not eat. I would not expect it to be a meal for a date. The tapas are hit or miss. Some were great and some were not good. Reservations for four, but we weren't seated until the whole party arrived. Sure, that is an understandable policy especially for large parties, but 2 people will take up a table just like 4 people. The Coyote-Ugly bar shots in the middle of our meal was off-putting. Tapas come out as they are ready, but in no rational sense or order. Farro was dropped almost immediately, and whipped sheep's milk cheese with honey was one of the last we received...? From 6:30 to 9:00 for four people to get 10 tapas... Go here to get drunk and have snacks; not really to enjoy a meal.
Louis L
Loved this place. Nice atmosphere, great staff, and the food was very good. Nice to try several items and share them with everyone at the table.
Gloria Pennington
Excellent service, great food and selection, great atmosphere
Palmira Hernandez
UPDATE 1/29/2017 - Left the review below about two weeks after Barcelona first opened. My family finally went back tonight, and we can honestly say they've made VAST improvements since our first visit. First, the wait staff and service were absolutely first-class. Second, we ordered the Paella Mariscos immediately upon our arrival, and were eating it about 25 minutes later, which gave us plenty of time to enjoy several of their authentic Spanish Tapas from their great menu. But even more, it was BY FAR the best Paella we've had outside of South Florida or Spain. For these reasons, I'll gladly change my rating and review from the initial two stars I gave it shortly after it opened, to the five stars Barcelona earned tonight!!! Thanks so much to Mr. Steve Weaver, Claudia, Jacob, and Lando our server. Everything was excellent, and we will definitely be back VERY soon to enjoy more exquisite and authentic Spanish cuisine. BRAVO Barcelona!!!
FIRST REVIEW: Been waiting for a "real" Spanish restaurant in Nashville with truly authentic Spanish foods and was somewhat disappointed with Barcelona. I really, really wanted to experience something special, but they need a lot of work. Some of the food was really good, and some was not. And the worst part of all was finding out their paella would 30-40 minutes to get it. Having had some of the world's best paellas in Spain, Miami, etc., I know and fully expect any paella to take 20-30 minutes to make/cook. However, the menu nor the wait staff mentioned anything about how long it would take, and this made our experience not worthy of the time and money we spent there. If they had told us up front how long it would have taken to get a paella, we would have ordered it as soon as we sat down. Instead, they got us to order a bunch of tapas (which we would have done anyway, and some of which were very good) and then come back to get your main order. Actually, we had to keep asking for our waiter to take our main order (he was quite overwhelmed, as well). Finally, 30 minutes into our time there, we ordered the paella and were told the paella orders were running about 30-40 minutes, which was a complete downer because that's why we went there in the first place. Unfortunately, we left without ordering anything else. We are very hopeful they work out the major kinks before we try it again.
Melissa Evans
Everything is delicious and the waiters are so kind. They always make birthdays special!
Ian Zhu
Not as good as the two in Boston. Specially the whole grilled snapper, came with scales and taste plain - do not recommend. Seafood in the seafood paella were not fresh. Server got wrong wine for us as well.
Virgilio Guma
At 10pm the lights go down and the music goes up. There’s dancing on the bar. Bar tenders pouring directly from the bottle into customers mouths. Great party atmosphere.
Amanda Sledge
Elliot is a FABULOUS bartender! Super helpful and patient when choosing wines for us non-Spanish/South American wine folks. The tapas were all-around fantastic, especially the pulpo (octopus), the mushroom medley, and the hangar steak. Will be back soon!
Matthew Sullivan
We felt so fancy!!! This is a fabulous new addition to Nashville's exploding restaurant scene. It really feels like you have stepped into a Spanish local restaurant. We loved our Tapas, got the chorizo with figs, the strawberries with toast, the sunchokes, the empanadas with red pepper sauce, and the crepes. We split a taste of the Spanish red wine, which was splendid. Assistant general manager, Heather, came over and chatted with us for 10 minutes, she was so friendly and welcoming! We will definitely be back!
William “Danger” Robinson
Wine selection is vast but slightly confusing. However, the servers are great about helping with recommendations. The food was absolutely exquisite. The only recommendation I have is that the make the menu easier to understand with better descriptions of the topas.
Jay K
Our favorite place to eat in Nashville, service and the food was superb.
Brian Hood
This is our absolute favorite place to take groups. Fun menu, awesome service, delicious food, and it’s always surprising how cheap it is at the end of the night. We’ll get 8 people to food coma status for less than $100.
Chris Fedler
You are about to experience one of the best meals of your life! I would make a suggestion on which item to order first but they are ALL delightful. However, three of the items on the menu found me selfish in wanting more...Benedict Serrano, Romao & Paella Mariscos. Allow yourself to explore all the items on the menu in different visits as you will find yourself returning sooner than you think but close your eyes and enjoy, as your senses are about to be heightened on your very first bite!
Selena Lee
They were very busy when we were there, maybe understaffed. The food was very fresh!! But our waitress had a large party and wasn't able to check on us often. The bar tender was rude when we set at the bar while waiting for our table.
Real Feng Shui
First time dining experience made in the shade. Arlo and Patrick are so welcoming and professional, as well as stylish.
Ten stars will be back asap LUV ✨
Laura Moore
After our honeymoon in Barcelona I was skeptical that the tapas and drinks would not compare. I could not have been more wrong! All the tapas we tried was delicious. The ham and cheese croquettes were just as good as the ones we had in Barcelona. I recommend the chorizo and figs...so good. The mussels were great. The bar cava bubbly was perfect. The reason for four stars rather than five was the music was unnecessarily loud. It was hard to have conversation with our friends.
Alice Ying Nie
Very intimate with a great and wide selection. We went there for happy hr and for $5 they filled our glasses to the brim. The tapas were like a couple of dollars and very delicious. Will definitely be coming back here.
Natasha M Fitness
The sauteed mushrooms are absolutely amazing.
Small portions but good food.
jm
After my first visit I swore I would never visit again... but Sunday brunch had other plans and I'm glad I was able to check it out again.
Service was great--servers were really attentive and knowledgeable with their food and beverages. We tried almost everything and nothing disappointed.
Brenda Smith
Wonderful meal. Loved my waitstaff. Food so good. I would definitely give more stars if available.
Andrea Huff
All I can say is WOW!! The food was delicious and the atmosphere was great!! We had great time!!
Ryan Deleon
This place has a great atmosphere--hip decor, lots of different seating choices--and tons of yummy tapas (you have to get the scallops!). The service seemed a bit slow at times, but everybody was very nice. Would go again, but probably just sit at the bar.
Jeremy Rose
The absolute best food, drinks, and staff you could ask for. Maddie, Duffy, Stevie, and the GM Daniel were top notch and made our night as memorable as possible and we couldn’t have asked for a better time. 10/10 for every category.
Marilyn Mox
My daughter and I love this place. The patio, the people, the food, the wine. It's all so great. Stuff goes out of thier way to make you feel relaxed and at a Spanish sea side sippin'.
Heather J
Perfect late night stop! Great tapas selection and don't forget the late night bar paella!
rakesh chandra
I went with my wife and adult daughter for dinner. We had an 8pm reservation and got there at 8. They checked us in by Ipad at 803. We waited 40 minutes as they sat a few walkins for 2. When I politely "inquired" they finally found us a table. But it was a 2 person table with a random side chair (behind the salt and pepper shakers and where the waiter would leave the bread basket). One of the other chairs had a wine spill sitting under it already. I am 5'9 "and 162 pounds and when I was sitting in the "side chair," it kept hitting the table behind me. Some of the tables at this place are almost impossibly on top of each other to begin with. After apologizing to the couple behind us for my chairback abutting their table, I decided to talk to the manager since he came for the wine spill in my wife's spot. He reseated us, but I don't know why we didn't get a legitimate table in the first place after waiting so much longer than when our reservation was actually made. He did send an appetizer, which I appreciate and was good.
Jozelle Albarran
Must come here. It is a tapas experience. The portions are fairly large for those with small appetites like myself. The atmosphere was great and the service was memorable.
Holly Wengerski
This place is a VIBE! great people & phenomenal food. Not one dish disappointed. Visiting from Chicago and absolutely worth it. Thank you !
Sheetal Mistry
From the time I called to make a last minute reservation for 20+ friends, to leaving the restaurant.. couldn't have asked for more!! Amazing, friendly staff! Very accommodating for a large birthday group! Food was great!! Thank you!!
Tammy Rogers
Best customer service in Nashville. Amazing food, great prices, small portions but that is fine with me. Eggplant Caponata and Olive Cake are a must.
Dave Rogers
Hannah was an incredible server! Her and her team mate Mike took great care of us. Unique wine selection had us all trying something new. I told Hannah the type of wine I was looking for and she hit the mark exactly! Tapas menu is unique and exciting. We had the chorizo & figs, roasted cauliflower, brussel sprouts, sweet potato fingerlings and eggplant. The four of us shared the roasted branzino and short ribs entrees, which were delightful. I highly recommend this restaurant.
Brianna Scanlon
Really good. Go on Mondays when bottles are half off. UPDATE: This place is always great. Haven't had a bad meal here yet!!
Greg Ratliff
Always great food and love sharing tapas plates. Great selection of beer and wine. Get the croquettes!!
Jeff
This place was a little expensive but it was very good. Our waiter offered to pick the food for us and we probably should have done that because it was a little distracting to have to keep ordering more small plates to make sure everybody had something to eat.
Tim Willmoth
Great food, tapas, and the wait staff are super friendly.
Luis Eduardo Velasquez
Awesome place. Food was amazing!!!
carlos medina
We are on vacation from Miami. Our daughter was here a year ago and loved it. Beautifully decorated, very fast and accommodating service and delicious food. Good price too.
Steve
My wife & I met in Madrid & moved to Nashville in March. We went to Barcelona (the wine bar) last week and the tapas were good - not great - not really comparable to the real thing but they have a great ambiance for date night. One tapas option is sausage with figs, sounds intriguing right? Don't do it, stick with the charcuterie plates & jamon iberco.
Eddy Lord
I just came from Barcelona, Spain and this wine bar is where you need to visit here in Nashville.
Peyton was or amazing server. Have great tapas recommendations and made us feel at home, abroad!
Be sure to try the porron! Adventure in itself!
Nicole Jackson
I was worried because of the small plates that it wouldn't be enough food, but you order a few things for yourself or to share and the food was delicious!
Benjamin Anderson
Ate here with friends after a rough night. After some deliberation about where to break our fast, we settled on Barcelona. Its a very trendy location and has a friendly staff, but what makes it great is the tapas. Their pork belly benedict and croque madame are to die for. We ordered around 10 tapas in total, but were supplemented with extras by the extra hospitable staff. If you go for brunch, order several tapas, and get the mimosa bar- you can personalize your drink. The meal finished with a delicious caramel desert. Muy delicioso, will return.
Kelley Hemstreet
Delicious wine and amazing food. Wonderful service and they did a great job putting COVID precautions in place, making us feel safe about dining in. Can't wait to come back.
Doug Voise
Outstanding food and drinks. We tasted 7 different tapas, and couldn't rate one above another. Our two servers were awesome.
Scott Campbell
We came in to celebrate our anniversary. Food was excellent and the manager, Mitchell, took great care of us. Highly recommended.
Carlos Lopez
Pretty good tapas. A bit pricy but well worth it. The mushroom and shishito dishes are outstanding. People seem to like the wines (didn't try). Good vegetarian options.
Natasha Turner
Great atmosphere Tapas are reasonably priced and are great for the table to share. Our waiter Dubby(probably not correct) was awesome and went above and beyond for us
Carrie Finnegan
This place is fabulous. We have had dinner there many times and brunch once. The food is delicious and I like that they offer small pour 3oz wine offerings and flights.
