Barceloneta, Restaurant Description

A little something about us. . .
We're based on Queens Road, in Leicester. A lively area, perfect for a cosy family meal, a romantic date for two or a fun filled evening with friends; we aim to accommodate for all parties.
Barceloneta serves freshly cooked tapas, inspired from areas of Spain, the Mediterranean and North Africa. A little something for everyone to try. We have a spectacular early week menu, offering a selection of our most popular dishes as part of deal, available Sundays Mondays and Tuesdays.
We always recommend booking a table as we never know how busy we will get until the evening itself.
We have a wonderful extensive selection of drinks, including beers, wines, spirits and cocktails, as well as the traditional, most popular Spanish cocktail itself, Sangria.
We've created this page for our customers, their friends and family, and for staff and ex-staff. For keeping up to date with the goings on in our restaurant; special events, deals, changes to our menus. And for sharing your experience- we'll post some photos and please tag us in your photos and posts.
Hopefully, we'll see you in our restaurant.

This was our 1st visit , good job we booked it was really busy even at 6.30. Trying to pick what we wanted wasn't easy so we asked the waitress for 5 meat, 5 fish and 5 vegetable dishes. What a great selection she made , stuffed squid , mussels , prawns , chicken skewers , paella , fried aubergine , goats cheese croquettes, cous cous salad , Pattas Bravas and many more. It was absolutely delicious . We will be back .

User

User

User

Been coming to this restaurant for many years with my family. My husband and I attended last week for our wedding anniversary and enjoyed the same top quality food as ever. Can honestly say that we have never been disappointed, the food is amazing and the staff are friendly and accommodating. Would like to say a big thank you to Paul for making the night extra special. As always, five out of five.

User

My boyfriend and I went on a Wednesday night, we booked but didn't need too. We eat tapas regular in Birmingham, bar estilo, which is our favourite however, we was not dissopointed. My favourite was the ribs, they are a must! My boyfriends favourite was the chorizo in red wine.....I would recommend to anyone ! The waiter was very helpful and friendly. Oh and the bar next door, Dos do amazing cocktails. A great evening!!!

User

I go there often the food is great and the staffs are lovely I'll love to celebrate my birthday there in 2 weeks time good continuation ������

User

Great food, defined go again. Some of the seating is poorly placed due to size but luckily we were moved out of the way

User

Good food 🥘 really enjoyed the evening and staff were very pleasant

User

First time at the restaurant and we weren't disappointed, staff very helpful and food was lovely. The portion sizes were surprising (in a good way) plenty to eat, great atmosphere. Will definately be returning if not just for the chicken and chorizo kebabs alone.

User

I went for new years eve. I felt that we ordered the wrong dishes so I really didn't enjoy it. All the food came at once so it went cold. The table was a bit small. The service is excellent though. However I've been on a normal night and the food was WOW! I would go again because I've been when it was really good. I guess it's what you get on a new years eve night.

User

We had a lovely meal here last night and the staff were very friendly. You were very busy which must have been why it took until I went to ask a waiter to take our order 3/4hr later before we were given any attention. We had to wait a further 15 mins for our drinks to arrive. So a total of 1 1/4 hrs before our food arrived. The food as usual was fantastic, the atmosphere and friendliness of the staff spot on. However the end result of my husband's birthday party was frustrating. Also being that we were the last in the restaurant, which had emptied around us, and felt we should forgo coffees etc as staff were waiting to go home.

User

Disappointing rushed us from the moment we got there advising us the table is only for 2 hours and then kept telling us we have a certain time left. Also took the meals away even though we had not finished. Poor service and charged a ridiculous service charge. Would not recommend this place.

User

Always loved this place but booked for Valentine's Day and not so good. Dumped on a small crushed in table and we asked to move, which we did , the service was slow even tho not as busy as I've seen before and the food that is usually fabulous was sadly poor. Overcooked calamari, like rubber, and prawns in chilli sauce were cold and overcooked . The only nice dish was my husbands whitebait which was cooked fresh off main menu.

Asked for service charge to be removed it was so poor. Disappointed 😩 This place was my favourite restaurant but couldn't deliver at all this night.

User

This was my all time favourite restaurant. For my birthday we booked a table and got excited as the food is fabulous and the cocktails too. Well this time it was really poor. Only 1 menu to go round ...fine we managed. Order the food and went for our favourites. We had a couple of cocktails then the food arrived. I started to eat the pork fillet and it tasted off. Hubby tried it too . He told me to stop eating turned the pork over and it was totally raw. We got the waitress to take a look and she was shocked. She took the plate to the kitchen had a chat with the chef (who then proceeded to give us unsettling looks all night from the pass) she returned apologised and said that our bill was called and we could have drinks and desserts on the house. We dosnt feel like eating so passed on the desserts. I asked for another couple of cocktails. The waitress returned to say the manager said we would have to pay for them. I asked to speak to the manager as that was not what had just been said to us. The manager came and then said his staff has got it wrong and we could have anything for free. We had our drinks then left a tip for the waitress as it wasn't her fault. It was a ruined birthday meal and hubby had had a really bad tummy for 2 days after. Gutted will never go back! Oh and they did change the chef a while ago we found out and I think that may be the problem. Such a shame!
