i love eating spanish tapas, i visit the country every year so i know what to look for in taste. And this restaurant is, by far, one of the best spanish tapas restaurants in NYC.

The food is good and really reasonably priced for Manhattan. The space is small but that's to be expected on this tiny island. What the place lacks in decor and service (which is NOT terrible, just not superb), it makes up in value and fun.

NOT RECOMMENDED. Last night I had dinner here with four friends. We arrived around 8:30 to learn it would be about 45 minutes for a table. We had a couple of rounds of drinks at the bar, as we watched people who were long finished with their meals keep their tables occupied, and empty tables being held for reservations that never arrived. Finally after an hour and a half we were seated at a table. A table with four chairs – there were five of us. One person stood for 15 minutes until they found another table for us. Eventually they moved us to another table that was a little too close for comfort. The food was nothing special. We asked for water and got one glass to share. When the bill arrived I asked the waitress if they could help us with a round of drinks or something, she looked at me and said “You do not have any right to ask that. We won’t take anything off.” Granted we chose to stay, but we spent a lot of money in their restaurant and they could have done a little something for the inconveniences. Service was awful.
