TELÈFERIC BARCELONA - WALNUT CREEK

Three of us dined before SIP and before attending a Ruth Bancroft event. Pleasantly surprised on great cuisine, service, etc. wonderful reminder of Barcelona pintxos!

I really wanted to like this place. First off, it was over-crowded so we weren't totally comfortable. Supposed to be outdoor dining and the place was so closed up it really wasn't outdoors. The only reason we stayed was that we got seated around the outside of the restaurant so we had a sliver of fresh air coming through.

Service was slow but friendly. The tapas were a disappointment. We ordered four dishes and enjoyed two-the ahi tuna taquitos and the Brussel sprouts. The potatoes were a disappointment-did not like the sauce on top. Our last dish we couldn't eat-I think it was a smoked tomato-the presentation was beautiful, but when we cut into it it was raw inside and had a runny cheese. Yuck.

The worst part was how loud it was. We could hardly talk to each other. Spent over $100 for just two of us for a very small amount of food that wasn't very good.

Loved our meal! The service & attention we received was great! Will be back :)

The best food, cocktails and vibe that Walnut Creek has to offer.

Booked this place for my friends birthday. It was wonderful and they did a special dessert for her birthday 🎂 This place has amazing food to share and is consistently good! Really enjoy the ambiance no matter what the occasion.

Food was delicious, enough for 4 to share. Patio dining.

Everything delicious,excellent service.

We had a great time food was amazing! They ya e done a great job setting up their outdoor dining!

Great view!!! However sitting outdoor in the patio it was extremely cold and very hard to enjoy the food.

All the tapas were so delicious!
I definitely recommend coming to this restaurant. The wine list and the sangria was also great.

Telefèric Barcelona is my favorite place to eat. The only impediment is That they don’t have more space and the staff does a good job covering All restrictions.
It’s a delight to interact with the people who work there!

I had put a note on our reservation that it was a birthday celebration for husband but they didn’t mention or recognize this during our meal. I felt awkward saying anything at the time but when we started to sing happy birthday to him during dessert they said oh you should have told us! I felt they should have known and acknowledged it as we arrived at the front desk where they should have seen the note on my reservation. Next time?? The tapas was excellent though but was served a little too quickly in my opinion. Thank you.

Omg! Great food seasoned to perfection! The staff was friendly and the service was Excellent! Every Tapas was filled with flavor that was soooo satisfying to my palate. Teleferic Barcelona I will be back!!!

Really fabulous food and drinks. We had the octopus, the dessert trio, I also had the "Tourist" cocktail. Everything was to die for. We had extremely fast and friendly service.

Extremely noisy.
One poor waiter was responsible for 20 tables.
The place was filthy. Food was just okay.

Had an accident which I understand, The staff are great! Food delicious. However broken glass on my food and they didn't even try to removed the item from my check, my Sangria wasn't even removed from my bill (on my Birthday) We were very cool and calm about it, We didn't even ask for nothing for free, but come on! don't charge me for what I didn't even finished to eat nor my drink that got spell all over me on my new clothes, didn't even offer to pay for dry cleaners, I could of being a more difficult guest and I wasn't! Because I understand that accidents happen! I just didn't want to get the staff in trouble ( They were very nice and polite ) The management was more concern about serving me back the same steak, than make it right for me. Very disappointing of how it was handle. (Covid 19 Can not serve the same food.....Common sense!!!!)
Other than that everything was great! You guys are very fortunate that I don't like to get anyone in trouble, other guest would of take you to the cleaners!!!

Fantastic food and service. Our new fav in WC. Even with all of the COVID restrictions, they’ve figured out how to create a really nice evening.

My family loves this place ever since I took them here for the first time and it’s now our go to place for family celebration.

The food was mediocre and quite overpriced. I'd go elsewhere for authentic tapas.

I’m glad they have outdoor dining with a roof. Wished I would have asked to have one of the two propane heaters moved close to our table.

Great Food and Drinks!!!! GReat Ambinece!! Definitely return.

Food was great and service was good.

First time visiting since early this year. Still blown away by the creative menu items and presentation. It is easily one of my top restaurants in the area.

*COVID CONCERNING*

My husband I went on our first date since March this past weekend and we were shocked with what experienced. Teleferic had about 30 people waiting to be seated, all standing in the small waiting area. Groups of 12 people asking to be seated together, demanding actually. They were running behind so my husband I decided to wait outside and not in with all the people. I checked online to see if they were booked but nope, still showing lots of open reservations. Seems like 25% capacity was loose. Our food was ok, not the same as what we have enjoyed many times before but I expected that with the pandemic. Once seated we had a group of two tables who were together surrounding our two top. It was so uncomfortable to have 12 people moving back and forth around our table all without masks that we only ordered drinks with apps and got out of there. In and out within a hour! If you are at all concerned with COVID, I would recommend finding a different restaurant. Just didn’t feel safe.

Disappointing experience. The most expensive paella on the menu was recommended by our server, the dungeness crab paella. I was excited to try this dish but it was terrible. It was very salty, all of the fish was rubbery and had a very fishy smell, even for a seafood dish. My husband and I did not eat our $68 fishy rice. I order the cote iberico hangar steak for my son. First, we had to hunt down our server to find out where it was and she finally stopped by to say they overcooked it so they had to make another one. Likely story, but ok, fine. When they finally brought it out, it was very rare and we ordered med-rare. Our server took it back to the kitchen, came back and told us we ordered it wrong and said they'd cook a new one. The new one was practically well-done. My son was hungry we dealt with it. Lastly, they are now imposing 20% gratuity to all patrons, regardless of number of guests. When asked, she said it's on the menu and it takes care of all of the house. I wouldn't mind but they apply the 20% against the total bill - half of our bill was alcohol. And I do think that if they are going to do this, they should point it out up front and give good service. We had to track down our server anytime we needed something and she did not check on us a single time without being asked. This is one of my favorite restaurants in WC. I was extremely disappointed by the food and service.

Great drinks, great food. A little pricey to spend with the kids but worth every penny too bring your spouse/date. I love this place.

Good spot to meet friends. Pisco sours were on point. Paella was large and filling.

Food was very bland and we were disappointed, surprised that so much was fried. Server went on break apparently without saying anything to us and had to flag down 2 different waiters to order a drink. Finally when we were almost done it came.

The food was delicious and the service was fine, although a bit slow. In non-COVID times, this restaurant would be great, however...

Although we felt safe at our table (not technically "outside," but close to a large window and spread apart), the inside of this restaurant and the bar was WAAAAY too crowded and the patrons were without masks even when not eating/drinking. I feel sorry for the wait staff as this seems pretty risky serving people who are obviously not taking precautions. Contra Costa County needs to check in on these restaurants to make sure they are in compliance.

First time, incredible experience! Very authentic food and well done decor
Service was excellent!

Birthday dinner was incredible. The service and quality of food was excellent.

Absolutely love the food and the ambience. Great place to hangout with friends

Service and drinks are not consistent. It's a hit or miss. Disappointing last time.

Been here a few times with my wife and with friends and had a great experience each time. The food selection is great, the service excellent and the cocktail choices were great. We'll be back soon to try more tapas and drinks. You never get tired of their food.

Service was perfect!!! Thank you for making our Anniversary feel special.

It was a very expensive meal! Many of the dishes weren't very good - the fries that came with the pork were completely cold and soft and the pork itself was sadly overcooked. Also, while they advised that they had "outdoor sitting" it was practically completely enclosed, which didn't feel very Covid safe. We did enjoy the wine, but paid a lot for it! We won't be coming back.

Loved it. Would like to see the Tapas cart return. I think the Covid risk is very low and you could put a cover over the food. Let’s get back to normal.

Food is delicious. Cocktails are amazing. This is places is packed though so just an fyi because of COVID.

Anniversary

We had an awesome meal at Teleferic. It was a date night, and our table.was available promptly and service was excellent. The food was amazing! We got the empanadas and paella, with a corn salad.

Highly recommended!
