If you're in Evanston and really craving tapas, then this will do the trick. Otherwise, there are better Tapas places in the city or better restaurants in Evanston. more

A wide variety of generously-sized tapas, all very flavorful. The scallops tapa is particularly good. Very friendly service. Numerous outdoor tables. Very reasonable prices - 4 of us recently ate there for under $50 including drinks. You might have a bit of a wait - it's deservedly very popular. more

The only bad thing about sitting outside in the din of the air conditioner next door. more

My daughter and niece were in town and we wanted to go someplace interesting for my son's birthday. What a treat Tapas Barcelona turned out to be. Our server was knowledgeable and attentive and the food was simply wonderful. I can't wait for my next visit. more

One of our very first dates was at this restaurant. Best time to try it out is Summertime as they have a great patio! more

I have been to Tapas Barcelona several times and have not had a bad experience yet. The food is fresh and well prepared. The outdoor seating provides a great neighborhood feel. Service is generally good, but depending on the night, it can be slow. Try the bacon wrapped dates, and/or the grilled tilapia. more

Consistently good place for tapas. Highlights include their baked goat cheese, tilapia dish, bacon wrapped dates, and many more. Nice atmosphere as well. Their sangria is just ok. Always have a great meal here. more
