We loved Vinitus so much we went twice during our trip to Spain--once in Madrid and once in Barcelona! Everything we tried was delicious, but the potatoes stole the show--crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and packed with flavor. The service was quick both times, and it felt like a modern take on classic tapas. Definitely a must-visit if you're in either city!

Got here during the dinnertime rush, and were seated at the bar after a short wait. Christian who was handling the bar, our order and adeptly juggling another orders was our server. He recommended some dishes which we thoroughly enjoyed. The bustling and welcoming vibe is memorable. They have a rotating menu of daily specials. We got the beef and foie gras montadito, shrimp ajillo, grilled octopus (pulpo), and fried seafood. For dessert we took Christian's recommendation and ordered the torrida crema de St Teresa an amazing version of French toast which will always be one of my happiest food memories! This is topped with a Catalan crema making it a delicious, decadent dessert! I'll look forward to coming back here!

I have to say this place had the best pistachio ice cream I've had in my life! Apparently they make it there. It was simply perfection. This place was in the high end of pricing but all the tapas we had were fantastic. We had the assortment of montaditos. One had a croqueta that was so good. The other had a salad like a coleslaw but not really. My husband enjoyed the others that had sardines and cod. But their desserts were the star of the show. Besides the pistachio ice cream we had the brownie and the crema catalana- all were delicious. Service was great. We didn't have to wait at all while we were there. Inside was very fusion/urban/cool restaurant. Nice to go and have some wine and tapas! It was a fun experience for sure.

Wow the best tapas in Barcelona, great place to people watch, great service, very clean bathrooms! They seated me inside with the window to look out. Prices are reasonable. Their Tinto cup is great! Razor clams, seafood grilled plate, octopus, and new meat tapa just so fresh and flavorful. Highly recommended!

Stopped by Vinitus for dinner a few weeks ago during a trip to Barcelona and had a wonderful experience. The food was amazing, the service was friendly and efficient, and the restaurant was clean and welcoming. We were a party of four adults and we ordered a whole bunch of tapas to share. There was a great variety to choose from and all tapas were prepared well. This was definitely a highlight meal for us while in Barcelona. As noted above, we tried several tapas that were on the menu for the day and shared. Although everything was tasty, some of our notable favorites included: - "Bravas" potatoes - Prawns "Garlic Style" - Lobster Paella - Potato and Nuts "Mini Bombs" - Beef Tenderloin Montadito with Foie - Chocolate with Churros (for dessert) This spot seems super popular, even for locals. We came by during the early evening for dinner and there was no wait. By the time we were done with our meal, the place was packed with tons of people waiting outside. The food and service definitely justify the popularity. We would definitely recommend Vinitus and would return on a future visit to Barcelona.

One of my favorite meal in BARCELONA! Everything was delicious and the prices were very reasonable. My friend and I got there around 1:30pm and waited about 15 mins. They do not take reservations. The line looked long but it was pretty quick. We didn't mind sitting at the bar and that is where they sat us. I think the bar is great because you get to see the cooks in action. I went during lunch and they have the LOBSTER Rice which was their huge paella and chef splits it to few plates to serve. So much flavor in this dish and the rice was cooked perfectly. I loved everything we order but a must order item is the Sirloin with Foie Gras. The steak is soft and the foie gras was full of flavor. Can I have another one please! The restaurant is big and warm. The staff was efficient and nice. I can't wait to come back.

Delicious reasonably priced tapas and wines, in a clean comfortable environment with excellent service. We walked here after seeing Casa Batlló....about 10 minutes: There was a line but it moved quite quickly. We were seated within 12 minutes of putting down our name. The place was huge with 2 floors of tables inside, a huge tapas bar that seats about 25 people and a covered outside dining area. Additionally I liked that it was very clean and well decorated. We liked it so much we came back for lunch 3 days later. That says a lot considering you practically stumble across a tapas bar/restaurant/eatery at every turn in the city center. Eleven days on both coasts of Spain, I've eaten my weight in Grilled Razor Clams and these were definitely my favorite. The sauce was slightly lighter in olive oil and a drizzle of white vinegar freshened up the entire dish and made a whole world of difference. Perfect with a glass of Cava or white wine. OCTOPUS "GALICIAN STYLE" is a traditional Spanish dish with octopus cooked with olive oil, smoked paprika, and sea salt. The octopus sliced into 1-inch pieces and served with potatoes. Here the octopus was served on a bed of puréed potatoes. Another winner. The octopus tender yet firm. The puréed potatoes smooth and soft but not rich and creamy which I really appreciated. To my taste, the dish needed a drizzle of olive oil and a dash of salt which I gladly added to make the dish perfect. Prawns Garlic Style - Poached prawns in a garlic olive oil with paprika. Simple but delicious. The broth not super garlicky, was so good we kept it to dip our bread in. Flautas (baguette sandwiches) with tuna, anchovies, olives and red pepper. Possibly my favorite sandwich...and I've had my share of Banh Mi. Loved this preparation with no mayonnaise. All the ingredients worked so well together. The roasted red bell pepper with olive oil and vinegar, added an a wonderful acidic freshness to the dish. The anchovies acted like the bass player in a band. Usually not the star of the show but would leave a void if not present. Here it played the role of salt and added a solid foundation of round umami for the other ingredients to build upon. All held in a fresh crispy baguette. I could eat this every day! Awe man I wish there were a place like this in Honolulu. Happy Eating!!

Lovely dining experience! It is a well-decorated restaurant and quite popular -- there was a line of 10-20 individuals when we came on a Thursday evening around 8 PM, but their service is very fast and we only had a 20 minute wait (for a party of 5). Overall, the tapas were decent; I was a big fan of cod with honey allioli. Cod with honey allioli (5/5): This was delicious and I would order it again. The cod was warm and melted in my mouth and the fruit jam and honey flavors really added to it, which was a wonderful surprise. Fried hot green peppers (4/5): This is a common dish at tapas restaurants and the ones we had at Vinitus were on the better end. Salty, savory, with a healthy (flavor-wise) dose of oil. Pan con tomate (4/5): The bread was fresh, and the flavor of the oil and tomato soaked through it well. Fried spring onions (3/5): The sauce complemented the spring onions well, but the spring onions were served in larger chunks, which meant we needed to cut them. However, the texture of spring onions makes it hard to cut at times (because it's a bit stringy) so the tempura would fall off, making it difficult to appreciate the dish completely. Fried artichoke (5/5): Light and crispy! Artichoke is not easy to make, and they did it well. Escalivada (3.5/5): Eggplant, peppers, and fig (?) at the top. I liked the sweetness of the fig as an addition but I think the eggplants and peppers could have had a stronger flavor (perhaps smokier). Asparagus and mushrooms (4/5): Both were cooked well, especially the mushrooms -- bursting with flavor! Would have appreciated more generous portions for this dish specifically. Ravioli with goat cheese and pear (3/5): The pear was a great addition and its sweetness, combined with the savoriness of the pasta, made for an interesting flavor combination. The ravioli itself was fairly standard. Gambas al Ajillo (4/5): Solid! The shrimp were well-cooked and very flavorful. Octopus (4/5): The texture of the octopus was good, which we appreciated; not too tough at all. I enjoyed the overall flavor of the dish, but there were some bites that were very salty.
