Barcelona Restaurant and Wine Bar is an award-winning
Spanish tapas restaurant group located throughout Connecticut from the greater
New York region to West Hartford and New Haven.  Barcelona was begun in 1995 by Sasa
Mahr-Batuz, based on his memories of years of living in Spain and Portugal, and
Andy Pforzheimer, based on his 20 years as a chef at world-famous restaurants
in France, California and New York.  Beginning
with a tiny, 38-seat wine bar they set out to recreate the feel and the look of
an evening on the Ramblas. They worked hard and made no compromises to achieve
their aims: sophisticated décor that evoked Milan, SoHo, or Rio de Janeiro.
Simple, flavor-filled dishes redolent with olive oil, lemon, smoky paprika.  A comprehensive list of wines by the glass
from around the world, with an emphasis on the lesser-known regions of Spain
and Portugal. They were guided not by any places that existed at the time, but
only by what they liked, and the way they liked it.
