For old school tapas and vermouth, head to Bodega 1900.

If you want to go all out, Enoteca is the place for it. The space is beautiful, the wine list (mostly Catalan) is long, and the seafood is excellent

With several different high-quality restaurants and bars, you're bound to find something you like in El Nacional.

Another Barceloneta tapas spot. The speciality at La Cova Fumada is the bomba (a “potato bomb").

Els Pescadors serves delicious and traditional Catalan seafood, but unlike many restaurants in the same category, it isn't full of tourists.
