"If you’ve been in Spain for more than five minutes, you’ll no doubt have tried this legendary tapas dish. Fried potatoes smothered in garlicky aioli and spicy tomato sauce are a heat-laced spin on the french fry. All over town you’ll find bravas that range from deep frozen with sauces straight out of a squeezy bottle to gourmet. Still, we’d sacrifice our firstborns borns for the chunky potatoes at Bar Canyí that come with less alioli and more of the crack-like house brava sauce made from—wait for it—tomato, garlic, sautéed onions, sweet and smoky ñora peppers, rosemary, chipotle, cardamom, ginger, vanilla, orange peel, and lime zest. No wonder the flavor has so much depth." - isabelle kliger
"This tapas spot is located in that liminal space between the Seaport and Fort Point. And even though it’s a mini-chain, it’s a really useful place for a group brunch or dinner when you want to drink some good wine by the glass. The $52 chef’s menu is a solid deal where you’ll get a little bit of everything—we’re talking savory bacon-wrapped dates, silky tortilla española with confit potatoes, and a big plate of paella mariscos packed with monkfish, squid, shrimp, mussels, and what feels like everything other species you’d find in the ocean. Hit this spot for a work birthday lunch, a post-work Happy Hour, or just bring some friends who aren’t weird about small plates." - tanya edwards, grace kelly

"The Seaport lunch menu showcases tapas-style lunch fare including pork croquettes, bacon-wrapped dates stuffed with almonds and blue cheese, new salads and rice bowls with beef and pork meatballs in tomato sauce, and a $24 rapid-fire tapas lunch (lamb skewers, brussels sprouts with chorizo, roasted eggplant) that finishes with churros." - Nathan Tavares
"I note NYC-born Spanish tapas restaurant Boqueria has opened its first Massachusetts outpost in the Seaport at 25 Thomson Place." - Erika Adams
