Thank you so much for your kind words N Chong. We’re glad you enjoyed our seafood paella and Michelle’s service. It means a lot to us that you had a great experience during your trip. We hope to see you again soon at Arume Restaurante Barcelona!
Daracık basık bir restaurant. Rezevasyonsuz gittik erken saat oldugu icin yer vardı. Tabaklar kirliydi değiştirdiler. Pasta hazırlanan alan karşımdaydı maalesef. Hazirlanan tabağa eldivensiz elle müdahale edilmesi gibi şeyler cok gözüme takıldı. Lezzetl olarak da ortalama üstü diyebilirim. Mükemmel değildi.
Klein, gemütlich, köstlich, Service sehr freundlich und "auf Zack".
Unbedingt für abends reservieren!
Wir hatten freitags auf 20.00h bestellt, es war voll. Als wir 21.45h raus sind, warteten viele Leute an der Bar auf einen Tisch.
Wir hatten Paella mit Ente und Pilzen, Seebarsch mit Blattsalat, als Nachtisch köstliches "Bicamisu" mit Nüssen und Erdbeeren.

Liebe Susanna, herzlichen Dank für Ihre tolle Bewertung und die netten Worte! Es freut uns sehr, dass Ihnen unser Essen und Service gefallen haben. Besonders schön zu hören, dass Sie unser Bicamisu genossen haben. Wir hoffen, Sie bald wieder bei uns begrüßen zu dürfen!
Extremely extremely disappointed in this restaurant.
I will be as objective as I can with this.
When we sat down we were given the choice of two tables - this was a plus.
We were quickly shown the menu with an iPad and also had the choice of browsing the menu through a qr code - which was both environmentally friendly and a good way to show all allergy information of the dishes in an organized manner.
Our waiter was relatively friendly and gave us sufficient time to order.
We ordered three staters.
Kindly note that on the image of the menu - you can see two scallops for the price of €8.5 - when we received the bill we were charged€8.5 for each - perhaps I misread the menu and for this I apologise for jumping to criticism. That said the image could potentially be misleading .
The scallops were overwhelmed with sauces and we could not really taste any scallop very well.
The oysters were fresh and well priced - a fine touch in the fact that a wedge of lime was provided for each oyster we ordered.
Octopus had the same problem - you could not really taste its intrinsic flavour - instead the flavour was forced on by other condiments.
Mains: the duck paella was just plain salty - positive was that it came out hot which was pleasant. Again not much flavour and not thought tasted very much like oyster sauce.
The lamb was room temperature and resembled pulled lamb(?) I have attached a photo for reference but I have never had anything like it. It was also dry and this time there was no sauce to save the dish.
Lastly the pork cheeks - most disappointing as again was served room temperature at best . Also pork cheeks are known to be very tender parts but the texture was agin dry and difficult to chew ! I guess this may be preferable for those who have a liking for chewy chewy textures!
In the end the service was lacking as we waited ages to get the bill , as the restaurant got busy and lively . We went directly to the till to get the bill and was greeted by quite rude response by the waiter - she dismissed my concerns about possible false advertisement with the scallop and seemed impatient when I was checking the bill was correct!
Ultimately , for such a highly regarded restaurant I expected much, much better - and as the bill came to €160 for us in the end for a party of four , with half filled stomachs , I simply cannot recommend it to fellow tourists ! ( and I would say that this restaurant is filled with 80% tourists )
call it what you will , but I wish the restaurant the best and I hope that it can benefit off my honest feedback to improve for the future !
This place is a MUST. Top quality food and the friendliest staff!! Unbeatable

Thank you so much, Nicole! We're so glad to hear you enjoyed the quality of our food and the atmosphere. We hope to see you again soon at Arume so we can continue sharing wonderful moments together. Best regards from the whole team!
We had dinner on 2026 May 5th. We walked from our hotel nearby to the restaurant, we must admit walking along the dilapidated alley leading towards the restaurant is really a mixed feeling. We wasn’t quite sure the restaurant in this neighbourhood is what we expected ….
Nevertheless we reached the restaurant and walked in, We ordered a €45/person set dinner.
Thank god we made the right decision to go into the restaurant. The food are nicely cooked and presented, and the service are good, the waitresses are hospitable and friendly. We enjoy our dinner very much and thanks to the team for great cooking. Highly recommend to everyone who enjoys great meal.

My wife and I had a fabulous time at Arume. We had the tempura octopus and Duck paella. Both were their respective best we had tried. Our server Michelle did an amazing job!

Thank you so much, Mayara, for your kind words! We're so glad to hear you felt comfortable and that our team, especially Precious, made your experience special. We'd love to welcome you back to Arume anytime. Until next time!
La comida está muy bien. Es de buena calidad, está bien hecha y aunque es un poco cara, en general la relacion calidad/precio es bastante aceptable.
El ambiente ya menos. Nos pusieron a 3 personas encajonadas en una mesa de dos contra la pared y dos barandillas, practicamente sin sitio para moverse lo que hacía dificil hasta corta.
La comida no cabía en la mesa. Trajeron 3 platos y el tercero se lo tuvieron que llevar de vuelta a la cocina hasta que nos comieramos los otros dos porque no lo podian poner en la mesa al no haber sitio. Jamás vi al alguien llevarse de vuelta un plato a cocina por no tener espacio para ponerlo.

¡Muchas gracias por tu valoración y tus comentarios detallados, Miguel! Nos alegra saber que disfrutaste de la calidad de nuestra comida. Tomamos nota sobre el espacio en las mesas para mejorar la experiencia. Esperamos verte de nuevo y que tu próxima visita sea aún más cómoda.
The stuff gave us a very warm welcome once we arrived. The service was excellent. The food were delicious. We ordered cocktails (blackberry mojito and sangria). Blackberry mojito was little too sweet and lack of alcohol. Sangria was slightly light tasted. We ordered appetizers (scallops, ham, and oysters) Oysters were fresh but little fragments of the shell remained. Ham was terrific. Scallops were soft and tender. For the main, we ordered duck paella and pork chop. Duck paella was wonderful. Just little salty but very strong favors. The dining experience was very good overall.
