Great show; horrible food.

The show was fantastic; however, the food was terrible. Only two choices for dinner, fish or roast beef; nearly everyone in our group chose roast beef and it was not edible (everyone left untouched) - it was almost leathery.
It would be 1-star if not for the great performers.

SUPER DISAPPOINTING AND A WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY

We booked the show with a Tapas meal. The tapas was fine but the show was a disaster. We actually joked and said that the reserve dancer team was on duty. The show was amateurish and not rehearsed. It was almost as if they made it up as they went along. When one of the dancers tried to make a dance move with the chair, which totally flopped, the other dancers burst out in laughter. The show was so short that when they finished everyone sat around waiting for the next dance, only to realize that that was it...We have seen better Spanish dance shows in South Africa. This show was a totally waste of time and money and I would definitely not recommend it to anyone
Response from Host , Nov 2019
Dear Maria.
Above all thank you for you honest and strong opinion about our flamenco show. This (along with my reply) will hopefully help our readers to understand what choice to make.
I am not sure how you ended up coming to the Tablao de Carmen, whether you chose to come after reading reviews on Viator, Tripadvisor, google or other websites or whether some friends recommended it or whether it was mere coincidence that you ended up her. The truth is that judging by your statements (“we joked and said that the reserve dancer team was on duty” and that you “have seen better Spanish dance shows in South Africa”), it looks like the selection criteria you have use to come to us is the wrong one.
Flamenco is only one small part of the huge, rich and complex part of the universe of Spanish dances. I add that the essence of the real and authentic flamenco art (this includes rigorous singing and guitar playing) is a serious and profound matter.
Tablao de Carmen specializes in this last bit, and not in offering a show where you will see other Spanish dances.
I take your comment very personally since this place was founded by my mother, a local who loves flamenco and understands it well. She opened the Tablao de Carmen 30 years ago in order to display and share what she believes to be genuine flamenco and also in order to improve the market choice of that time (only two places displayed touristic Flamenco). We love and enjoy Flamenco and what we offer is not thought to adapt to the touristic standards but instead to fit in with what we believe is special, unique and legitimate of the flamenco character and expression.
If my mother had opened this place to attract tourists maybe we should have taken your words into account and then change the show in order to have a perfect rehearsed show where artists will not laugh and chairs will be moved with exact precision. Or also we would have had to organize the duration of the show to last for more than an hour so clients would feel that their time watching is worth what they´ve paid. Instead, we choose not to choreograph neither make it longer than an hour ( including an interval). Our choice of flamenco show is overseen daily by my own eyes. Our experience guides us into maintaining this line versus the other flamenco places in Barcelona where you could probably find what you were looking for.
I am sorry you have been so misguided when you came to Tablao de Carmen and we wish you good luck in your future attempts to find the sort of Flamenco you are looking for.
Again, thank you for your time. Kind regards.

The restaurant was very small and the show was just ok. I have been to other shows and it was not as entertaining as other ones I've gone to.
Response from Host , Nov 2019
Hello.
We appreciate your feedback.
In an attempt to be constructive with your critical opinion, we would appreciate if you could let us know what sort of element you did not find as entertaining as other ones you have experienced. Any insight is always welcome and your comments are very helpful.
About your first comment that “the restaurant is very small” we wonder whether you are confusing us with another flamenco place. Our restaurant can host 150 people, set in 3 different levels (one mezzanine with at least 70 seats and two balconies, one hosts up to 35/40 and another one up to 15) and although it looks intimate it is not a small restaurant.
The sort of flamenco that we offer at Tablao de Carmen does not aim at being “entertaining” but rather “telling” of a live culture, and the expression of many different parts of a society that for many centuries has expressed through music and dance their character and ways of celebrating. Any insight is always welcome and your comments are very welcome.
The Tablao de Carmen is a place with a real and plain flamenco atmosphere where you can have drinks and food while a group of good flamenco artists perform in a very genuine and traditional way.
We are sorry that we have not match your expectations (if this is the place where you came and not another one).

Our party of 6 spent the evening at Tablao de Carmen for a 3 course dinner and a Flamenco show. Before the show we browsed the many shops in this beautiful Poble Espanol Architectural museum and purchased some local souvenirs. The show was outstanding, as was the food. The setting was small enough to experience the show up close. Very enjoyable evening!

Passionate Flamenco Performance

My female friend and I attended a Flamenco dinner show at Tablao de Carmen. Although, it wasn't my first time experiencing a Flamenco dinner show in Spain, I wanted my friend to have a memorable experience as a first timer. Tablao de Carmen is nestled in the gypsy quarter of Barcelona and my friend and I had an interesting time searching for it...basically we followed a group of ladies dressed flamboyantly to the event. We were greeted with a strong pitcher of Sangria and delicious entrantes and primo platos. At this show, there were two musicians, one main singer, three female Flamenco dancers and one male Flamenco dancer. They each had their own styles and interpretations of the dance...ranging from gracefully tender to intensely passionate. It was a wonderful experience...highly recommended. My friend sat in her chair in awe! The food was satiating...

This was such a special night for us. The story of Tablao de Carmen the the owner Mimo shared with us was so heartfelt. We felt very welcomed and were treated like old friends. The dancers were fantastic we never had such fun. Clapping and cheering from the audience. Our seats were perfect and the dinner very good especially the wine. I would say if you want a traditional flamenco experience and traditional Spanish cuisine don’t miss this place. It is not touristy at all I really felt like we were the only tourists there. An authentic experience.
Also this venue is located in a special place Pueblo Espanyol which has artists creating beautiful things to sell and lots of things to see and a museum to explore. We came back the next afternoon and spent a few hours do that and it was great no crowds and very peaceful. Had a great lunch too! Check it out you want be disappointed
