El Vaso de Oro Review

This is a very good Barceloneta tapas bar that makes its own beer. Inside, the place is dauntingly narrow, making it a challenge not to elbow your neighbor as you raise your glass. Most people consider this part of the fun, though, as they tuck into a juicy solomillo (sirloin steak) served with pimientos del padrón (miniature green peppers), light croquetas de jamón (ham croquettes), or a shellfish and seafood salad. If you are on a budget, watch what you eat, as the portions here are small, and the bill adds up unexpectedly.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
