This is the place the town’s discerning trenchermen are all fighting to get into. Chef Andy Nusser, who served apprenticeships at Babbo and Po, has a fondness for robust, elemental flavors, which he shuffles together in deliciously ingenious ways. Duck eggs make regular appearances on the tapas-style menu, as does grilled steak with a nutty romesco sauce, and sweetbreads seized in a thick crust. There are tables in the tiny submariner’s space, but sit at the bar to experience Spanish food cooked “à la plancha,” or on the grill, in all its smoky glory.
Recommended DishesFried calamari, $12; patatas bravas, $8; fried duck egg, $13; sliced skirt steak, $15
