Had dinner with my Italian friend/colleague here and we both loved the food. I highly recommend the goat cheese salad. We had paella as main paired with sangria. It was perfect. My friend loved the place. She said “this is a good restaurant” - which is saying a lot coming from a foodie Milanese.
Our special Friday Five Thirsty venue where we hang out and unwind the week. Awesome staff, great food and drinks. This Barcino branch rocks!
Ambiance in Eastwood is great. You’ll really chilling and eating at the same time. Plus, service is also excellent. Their Paella Negra matches well with their Sangria.
The Callos is a must try! From the first time I tried it until now, a Barcino visit will always have Callos. Soft, flavourful, think sauce. Yummy indeed!
Barcino is a great place to wine and dine. We used our 1+1 promo from zomato. The gambas al ajillo was definitely great with alot of garlic! Paella de chorizo tastes good as well. The chopitos are fried baby squid which are great bites. We didnt like the torreznos or the crispy pork belly because it has more fats that expected. We also got the white and red sangria which tastes fine.
(Additional review)
Tried the following also:
1. Croquettas chorizo - very good taste
2. Paella mixta - good enough
3. Pasta marinara - normal
Had paella and gambas de alilio. We used zomato gold so we only paid for the paella. The gambas was amazing and garlicky. A bit pricy for 5 pcs of shrimp i think about 800+ peso. Service was a bit slow, had to ask water for like 4 times. Though it was a very busy thursday.
Good food, good wine, and good atmosphere. Dishes are a bit pricey and take some time to arrive at the table but they taste excellent.
You can't go wrong with their paella; so far I've tried their rich Paella Negra, and the Paella a la Gallega, a tasty traditional take on the dish consisting of mixed octopus, squid, and veggies. Other must-orders are the garlicky Gambas al Ajillo and the very tender Lengua in red wine sauce. For the kids-at-heart like me, I also recommend the Patatas Bravas, which are basically fried, cubed potatoes topped with cheese with a little bit of spice. Not really a fan of their desserts though - both their Churros and Crema Catalana were just okay.
Food we ordered were awesome! Great service (tho at around 430pm only 1 server was available). Fantastic savings from Zomato Gold
Negative: there were flies
My friends and I always go for a glass of sangria here. As usual, food and drinks tasted great. Good service, though I wish they'd automatically refill empty water glasses.

Love this place! The ambience is really sophisticated but feels cozy at the same time.
Staff are very friendly and provides fast service.
As for the food, don’t miss their paella negra. I think it’s their best seller. Their calamari is really good and was quite surprised with the lemon caramel dip that goes well with the squid ring. One of their new dishes is the torreznos which is deep fried pork belly. It was well done to a crisp on the outside and will surprise you with the tenderness of the meat inside!
Edit as of 29 September:
Back after some months, with my girl friends and this place still is a delight. Came around the time they opened but the staff was very friendly and led me to our reserved table. As for the food, it never disappoints. We had another variant of their paella which was equally good, the patatas bravas and the croquettes are a staple. This time we tried their puff pastry— canutillos rellenos de crema. Was really good, tasty but not too sweet. We have already decided that this will definitely be our go-to place for our catch-up dates.
