"People often ask us about tapas, as if New York is littered with amazing Spanish restaurants on every corner. In reality, there are only a few greats, and Casa Mono is the best of them. The menu is a mix of traditional and more creative small plates, and pretty much all of them are good. The Ensalada Mono, octopus, bone marrow, and skirt steak should definitely be part of your order. Get access to exclusive reservations at this spot with Chase Sapphire Reserve.
