Can Sol\u00e9<\/b><\/a>, located at <\/span>Sant Carles, 4<\/b>, is a paella classic. This <\/span>Barceloneta<\/b><\/a> restaurant opened its doors in 1903 as a spot for fisherman at the port to eat at. Since then, all types of people and personalities have passed through their doors, attracted by their traditional seafood menu made with high-quality fresh ingredients and prepared with the utmost care. Their star plates include their lobster paella and <\/span>arroz a banda<\/span><\/i>, paella made with fish and saffron. We recommend that you ask for the fish of the day and that you reserve a table ahead of time, especially if you are going during the weekend. Another classic paella joint in Barceloneta is the restaurant <\/span>Salamanca<\/b><\/a>, located at <\/span>Pepe Rubianes, 34<\/b>. In addition, this spot has a beautiful terrace with one of the best views of the sea. This restaurant opened up about 40 years ago, and is located in a very privileged and touristic location, but their plates are anything but tourist-food caliber. Their <\/span>seafood<\/b><\/a> kitchen has the best of the market, with the best selection of fresh products. If you pass through, you\u2019ll see over 30 waiters offering the best service to their clients. <\/span>Salamanca<\/b> is famous for its fish and other seafood, but above all for its incredible paella. <\/span><\/p>\n
