Profile

This venue is closed.

Spanish food doesn't possess the big flavors that have attracted so many Americans to southwestern fare, but chef/owner Bobby Flay has the audacity to inject some and the skill to make it work. In an unfortunate room that reminds you of Gaudi by way of Pee-wee Herman, items as modest-sounding as salmon tartare on a chick pea polenta cake, black squid ink risotto, and black pepper-crusted sirloin exhibit pure bravado. — Rob Patronite and Robin Raisfeld

Prix-Fixe Menu

Three-course lunch, $24.07

Note
With the introduction of her dessert tapas menu, Pastry Chef Vicki Wells has taken the small-plates craze to its logical confectionary conclusion. Any three exquisite mouthfuls from a list of twelve go for $11.

Recommended Dishes

Salmon tartare, $13; black squid ink risotto, $29; black pepper-crusted sirloin, $34; paella, $33
