Welcome to Restaurant Babou

“ Atmosphere is wonderful - walls I Gaudian style, mirrors, and Spanish soundtrack which is loud enough to enjoy but not laud enough to interfere with conversation. Wonderful tapas - we chose the olives stuffed with anchovies, the potatoes millefeuille which was to die for - definitely a highlight - and the stew croquettes. For main course I had the grilled Octopus, with potatoes and sausage. The octopus was melt-in-your mouth tasty. The Alboraniou wine paired beautifully. The cheese cake was real cheese, and delightful. Service by Chris originally from Peru was very good. The restaurant had few other customers, as locals are away with the hot weather, and tourists like us have yet to discover it. A hidden gem - tourists give it a try - you will not be disappointed!! ”

“ Everything we ordered was wonderful. Make sure to add the cannoli, the frozen strawberries are perfection. Pro Tip: order on TheFork app and you can get like 30% off the meal ;) ”

“ A gem in the city. I loved the atmosphere. Service was perfect and the food simply delicious. One of the best tiramisù o ever had! ”

“ The aesthetic of the restaurant was like walking into a Morden art museum. High ceilings had waved fabric throughout the restaurant, the plates were very modern design. Our service was impeccable and food was delicious. The starter (crispy calamari roll) was slightly too salty but the main made up for it. The grilled octopus was cooked to perfection. I would highly recommend this restaurant. If you book though the fork you can get 30% off the meal! ”

“ A very nice restaurant that has high end vibes all over but still feels inviting and welcoming thanks to the friendly staff. The menu has a nice variety of options, I opted for their grilled octopus and it was delicious! The perfect amount of food in the dish. Overall, a very pleasing experience and a good option for lunch or dinner (the place is very quiet during the week days and would accommodate nicely for a date night). ”

“ Very good food. Toni is an incredible host. Great place to eat solo too. Lightning and music could be better. ”

“ Rarely these days do I 'Google' review a restaurant: if you find yourself in Barcelona, eat here. My partner and I ate at 20:00 on a Thursday. The bread is the best I have ever eaten ( coming from a German boy who has eaten in bakeries from Frankfurt to Vienna to Budapest ). The tapas: squid churros and croquettes are so flavorful they bring emotion. Drinks are flavourful and playful. Main dishes are incredible. Service was as expected in Barcelona, attentive and always open to my broken Spanish. Fin: Eat here! The food will bring you to pure emotion. ”

“ This place is incredible, but empty. I really hope it survives. The chef is intelligent, with the steak tartare served inside a croissant with jam being the highlight. Non-pretentious, but daring, with good staff, and excellent wine and food. Help this place stick around! ”
