"Despite bad reviews about Groupon experience we gave them a chance. I am so glad we did . 4 tapas per person, paella for 2, bottle of wine and 2 deserts for 25 euros you can’t go wrong. Food was very good and fresh, service was nice. Restaurant clean and nice and cool inside after walking outside half a day. Thank you for nice dinner."

"This place was truly amazing! We stopped in for dinner and no other customers were there. So we had the place to ourselves. The staff were nice and let us be. We had great time laughing and enjoying the moment. We ordered the olive super fresh and tomato bread. Then we got seafood and chicken paella along with pasta pesto and carbonara. The pasta was creamy and paella was flavorful. They also gave us all a glass of champagne on the house. Overall very yummy do recommend!"

"We found this place through a discount offer on the "Fork" app. The discount did not work online but we called and they kindly offered to honor the discount. Service was fast and good, responsive waiters. Food was okay, decent paella, the crema catalana left a bit to be desired. I would say, for the price we paid it was okay. If we had paid full price I would have felt it would not have been worth it. Overall, it is an okay place."

"Nestled in the heart of Barcelona, Catlunya Restaurant tantalizes taste buds with its exquisite Catalan cuisine. Each dish is a symphony of flavors, expertly crafted to perfection. From savory seafood paella to melt-in-your-mouth tapas, every bite transports diners on a culinary journey through Catalonia. Impeccable service and charming ambiance complete the experience."

"I’ve been there with my friend as we booked table via an application. The food is decent, huge portion. The waiter and waitress were nice also. The only point that should work on is the toilet, as after eating seafood we need soap to wash hands and mouth, but it ran out. Anyway, this is the point y’all could work on so I still give a 5 star rating for general experience."
