Buzzy and energetic, Barrafina is not the place to go for a first date but is perfect for a night out with your best girl or boy friend. Be prepared to wait a while as they don’t take bookings and this place is popular but it’s definitely worth the wait. You can stand at the side with a glass of something chilled and nibble on some of their tapas while you wait for your seat. The decor is slick and simple but comfortable. The staff are always busy but incredibly fast. They always have something exciting on the special board, usually fresh seafood. The food is reliably delicious and fresh.
