What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
La Barca is highly praised for its exceptional paella and fresh seafood, complemented by stunning sea views and attentive service. While most experiences are overwhelmingly positive, a few reviewers noted that white sangria was not to their taste, and one found the policy regarding indoor seating for non-meal orders to be unreasonable. Overall, it's a recommended spot for quality food and a memorable dining atmosphere.
"Best Paella we’ve ever had, we also had the baby squid and garlic prawns to start - they are very generous portions and delicious. And to top it off we had a lovely view of the sunset and beach to enjoy the meal. I’d definitely recommend this place!"

"Food was really nice, menu looks expensive at first sight but portions are big and tasty.
White sangria wasn't nice but there is a plentiful drinks menu to compensate."
Russ Underwood
"Our last restaurant meal in Salou was at LA Barca. It was a hot Wednesday afternoon so we opted to sit inside with the cool aircon. The outdoor seating has a great view of the beach so not surprised very few people were inside.
As for the food and drinks... everything was fantastic. Cannot fault a single meal or drink. The restaurant looks like one of the more upmarket places on the ocean strip but the prices are quite competitive.
Service was excellent."
