An enoteca requires that the temperature be at a certain level so the wine may be enjoyed lengthily. They need to fix this issue. Otherwise all is well.

Last night I met a colleague for a glass of wine in Barcino at the Power Plant Mall. When it first opened it created a real buzz and continues to pack in the "beautiful people" - especially on Friday nights! But, it is the ONLY BAR IN ROCKWELL so it has a pretty captive audience. The owners scored a real... More

I like the ambiance, the food, the good selection of wines and the service. My favorite is at Greenbelt and they have good Latin bands playing. Highly recommended.

Mix of Spanish and Philippino dishes. Very mediocre paella, and service was terrible although it was new year eve and they had expanded number of tables so possibly could not handle the numbers. Long wine list but if you wanted wine by the glass there were only a couple of selections and the one I had (the costlier choice) was... More

I went there for Sunday lunch today with a friend; hers arrived promptly enough but 20 minutes later, and being advised twice "It's just coming, sir" I went to the bar to ask where it was. It was just being handed to the waitress through the serving hatch and I saw slide her thumb all round the plate to take... More

Been to branches in the Fort and Grrenbelt. Extensive wine selection at reasonable prices. Spanish food was also quite good, actually. But you have to keep calling the waiters to order and get served. Service was real slow. Inefficiency extends to reservations which they managed to botch up in Greenbelt and the Fort gave wrong parking directions. Recommend with reservations.

I usually hang out with friends at the branch at Fort Bonifacio. The place offers an excellent selection of Spanish wines to suit all budgets. they actually distribute the wines they carry locally so you get them cheaper than other stores. Food has also improved a lot since the introduction of a Spanish chef. Of all their branches, I like... More

I've always only had tapas here... and highly recommend chorizo iberico, bilbao frito and gambas aljillo to line the stomach before drinking. Great place to chill. Waiters are helpful but aren't that familiar with their wines.

Our friends took us to Barcino, we had paella and the squid paella, it was great! I can't remember the food that we had since it was our friends who ordered the food. They are the ones who are frequent goers to this restaurant. It was a great night. Good food - good wine! and Good service!
