Great for a date. The atmosphere at Las Ramblas makes for a cozy dinner date. In addition to being along the riverwalk, the setting is calm and quiet. The prices for tapas range from $4 - $8 for a "small plate" and $19 - $31 for a "big plate." I was dissappointed that they were out of calamari on a Friday night, but everything else I ordered was great. They make a great mango mojito although its a little small for the price. The "shrimp a la plancha" was really good as were the "patatas bravas." What I enjoyed the most were the "Cider braised spareribs" They were great.

They are located inside of the Hotel Contessa, downstairs. If you're not staying at the hotel, feel free to park at the hotel because they do validate parking.

What would have added to this place for me would have been perhaps dimmer lighting and some audible Latin music. The music they were playing just didn't seem to go with the atmosphere and you could barely hear it. Other than that, I would defintely return.

Wonderful food and ambiance. We came here because other places on the river were so crowded. We had great food in a great setting. The service was attentive and not obtrusive. It was a delightful evening. Bring along someone you love

Great Food and Great Outside Seating. We chose Las Ramblas for our anniversary dinner based solely on the Citysearch reviews. I was very pleased with the meal and the service. We were able to sit outside and the restaurant was situated on a quiet stretch of the Riverwalk. I would recommend Las Ramblas to anyone who would like a nice meal that will not break the bank.

Scrumptious. My boyfriend recently discovered this place and boy what a find!!! We have gone back 2 additional times since our first visit. The food is delicious and the atmosphere is always welcoming. Whether it is a girls night, guys night, or a romantic date this is the place to be. The sangria is wonderful and constantly flowing. The tapas are delicious, especially the Goats Cheese. Everything we ate there, including dessert, is scrumptious and extremely fresh. It is the perfect place for any occasion. If you want to have a great time and eat well I recommend this place highly!!!!

Good to go back. I visited the restaurant on the first Saturday over Fiesta. It was a while since my wife & I had been, so we were a little anxious after reading mixed reviews.

But we thoroughly enjoyed everything. The food was outstanding & the setting is picturesque. We will be back.

Simple but elegant. My husband and I came here for our anniversary & we had a splendid time. We founf the swaiter to be very attentive, maybe even a little too much.

The food was a delight, even though I only had a salad & Steak & my husband had the ribs followed by Chicken. It was simple yet full of flavor.

We will be back

Could they even find Spain on a map?. The food isn't awful but it IS NOT Spainish cuisine. The Cataplana is okay but how hard is it to mix garlic, vegetables, seafood and wine? Anyone could make that edible. It just seems to me that the menu came together after a cook book shopping trip to Borders. Go to Spain. Eat real Spainish food.
