"A vibrant, bustling spot that feels lively no matter when you go or where you sit, Mas excels at presenting the unfussy flavors of Spanish tapas. Get your fingers messy with the gambas a la parilla—shell-on shrimp with garlic aioli, and pay your respects to foods of origin like jamon serrano reserva and manchego. You can learn all you need to know about a tapas place by its tortilla espanola, and the one at Mas is best in its class, with soft potatoes and sweet onions suspended in fluffy eggs." - Stephanie Ganz
