The choice of condiments that one may wish to use to complement the potatoes is rather limited, all their sauces are premixed and dispensed from tubes by the waiters and bar tenders. The rest of the menu is nothing to right home about. Local people come to fill their stomachs in a fast lunch. Needless to say you also should not expect any selection of wines and drinks other than plonk. So if your goal is to experience a not very touristy local feeding operation with tasty patatas bravas you may want to try it.

Many people say they are THE BEST bravas in Barcelona, but I have to say they could win the spot for WORST BRAVAS. The potatoes are mushy and taste like they have been reheated in the microwave. The sauce is too oily and only tastes like garlic. My stomach was upset after eating them because they were so greasy. I don’t understand why this place is so busy!? Maybe because it’s the only bar open on the street? Sadly we won’t be returning. Señor Vermut has MUCH better bravas.

The restaurant is was packed both nights all with locals and locals don’t eat at bad places or expensive! Well worth a visit if you are in the area.
