I've read in one of the comments that cheaper tapas are available elsewhere. These are not your standard tapas, It's made of excellent fresh ingredients, flavours beautifully combined and nicely served, One of the best restaurants I tried this visit, and it really deserves the good reviews, Also a nice place to hang out and staff helpful and eager to...

Really enjoyed the tapas. They are not the traditional tapas but very creative contemporary tapas. Must have: fried abergines on goat cheese and honey, fried egg with foie gras on potatoes. Definitely come back again!

Before going to Barcelona I was keen to research a good tapas place. La Pepita turned out to be fantastic food, about 6 euros a dish. There aren't any lunch 'deals', however, so there are cheaper places to go to in the Gothic quarter. Pepita set us back 24 euros a head, in the Gothic area there were other set... More

We arrived right on time for our 20.30 booking for 5 and were greeted warmly, by name amidst a busy and vibrant restaurant by the restaurateur/owner herself. After reviewing the menu we decided to hand ourselves over to the experts, and after declaring there was nothing we wouldn't try/didn't like we were sent various plates of 'tapas with a twist'...

We researched Tripadvisor in advance of our visit to Barcelona to select restaurants. This was another find and we were not disappointed. It's a small, very popular, busy restaurant so would advise booking in advance as we did. We were warmly greeted on our arrival and Sophia took us through the menu as we were served the very pleasant cava... More

La Pepita, a permutation of the popular Pepito sandwich is an unassuming small restaurant bar close to Avenida Diagonal. Don't be fooled by the exterior, as you walk in you will find that lovely owner Sofia Boixet has done a great job decorating the place with local artist paintings. Service was exceptional, and Sofia personally guided us throughout culinary experience.... More

Everything they said was true! The food was amazing, the music was good, the service was excelllent. We walked in on a saturday night without reservation and I wasn't too optimistic to find a table. We had to wait for about 20min with a good wine as company and after that we got a place at the bar.

Yesterday I went to La Pepita and had a wonderful night. Everything was perfect. My friend who was visiting loved the place and had a terrific experience. We sit in the little table right at the entrance and it was a great spot. The place was packed but we had our intimacy and could chat so relaxed. The food was... More

Lovely little tapas bar, great food and good for our kids. We will definitely go back. We saw the owner giving a homeless person a cup of coffee too!
