The food is delicious, the service is friendly without being overbearing, the room is comfortable and stylish… all the components of a relaxing and fun evening.

Classy, elegant and grown up. They do take their wine seriously and the staff certainly know their topic but the atmosphere is relaxed and not at all stuffy.

Love the wood-fired focus, I’m a committed protein so the style suits me particularly well. Quality of ingredients was obvious and the 190+ aged rib was one of the best I’ve ever had.

Flavours are great. Both the sobrasada and jamon are lovely quality, the bbq squid is delicious with just the right amount of resistance and meatballs are tasty. The disappointment for me is the paella – it’s normally one of my favourite meals but this version didn’t rate for me. I found it way too moist, not enough flavour and no skin on the bottom.

I’ve dined at The Grand on a number of occasions and have never been disappointed. The atmosphere is more wintery being an inside/dark-ish vibe but during those colder months, it’s perfect for those who want good food without the fuss.

Great wings, nice selection of refreshments (even for those who aren’t into beer!). A very simple concept though so will be interesting to see if it can maintain interest. Personally I feel that it’s more of a summer place (not overly cosy for winter) but others might see if differently. Hope they continue to evolve.

Perfect place for afternoon drinks in the winter sunshine! Terrific food, lots of options for small things or something more substantial but I’ve also popped in a few times now just for drinks. Definitely worth a stop.

Barrio 2304 – Newcastle, NSW, Australia

Barrio definitely has it all. The constantly changing menu of tapas dishes never disappoints and it’s so difficult to choose favourites – prawns, meatballs, lamb… even the salads are amazing. Service is always friendly and efficient. Value for money is excellent.
