Basque restaurant · Lower East Side

19 Destination-Worthy Restaurants in the Lower East Side

"Tucked away at the southeast corner of the Lower East Side, far from the frenetic bar scene and facing a park, this spare, brick-walled space with modernistic light fixtures makes a great romantic date spot. The menu from chef Ryan Bartlow features Basque fare and dishes from other Spanish regions to pair with wines." - Robert Sietsema, Eater Staff
