Barsa Taberna - Toronto

Service is great here, terrace is spacious! eating here is amazing. we have the: seafood ceviche 5/5 asparagus and kirsch tomatensalat 4.5/5 Spanish.

Beat the pation in barsa taberna at the weekend, as the dinge go back normal in toronto. they treat COVID-19 stuff really good, a nice distance.

I used to be here in summer and enjoyed the terrace but this time I was not least impressed. when I was here this time.

I've never had a more disappointing meal. We convinced our neighbours to also order Barsa for Valentine's Day so that we could have just one person pick up as we live in the opposite corner of the city. We highly recommended the seafood paella as...we had it just weeks ago. It was beautiful. They have changed the dish completely. I tried calling immediately to ask what on earth we received and no one answered. I looked up photos of the dish online and they all looked like what we had before spanish rice with mussels, shrimp and scallops. We all ordered the same thing at our reccomendation and the dish was completely black. No mentioned of a changed recipe on their website. It was disgusting I could barely touch it. It was the most disappointing expensive Valentine's meal I have ever had and I have yet to get ahold of the restaurant to ask what went wrong. Our best guess it is now made with some sort of ink. Almost inedible and not what they are known for. We wasted our money and have wasted our neighbours money on a terrible dish. We called to place the order and their was NO mention of a change in recipe or them doing anything different. Nothing. Terrible. They get stars for the calamari.

The website advertised a flamenco show, in fact they had a live guitarist for about an hour, but no dancers. The food was bad, cold, badly seasoned, the meat was dry and stringy, and for the cheese “platter” one needs to bring tweezers from home...to handle the delicate foils of cheese. They give a really bad name to the Spanish cuisine.
