Boqueria UES

Ordered from the tapas menu for Sunday brunch. The place wasn’t all that crowded. Except for the reed-y asparagus, the plates were great. The surprise of the day was the orange seasoned anchovies on homemade potato crisps. (Yum!)

Bottom line: OK food, good vibes, not super well run, but could be much worse. Could do better for the price Food: Average, nothing special: every plate we tried tasted a bit like home cooking, very one-dimensional, but not bad. Paella was below expectations: bit soggy, not quite crisped on the bottom, but still tasted burnt. Very light on the saffron. Shrimp was not fresh. Paella is treated (and priced) almost like their specialty, but executed carelessly Drinks: not well made but seems to use high quality ingredients Service: Below average Our waiter may have been overwhelmed by a large party and forgot to take our order, but one of the managers(?) noticed and ended up picking up the slack. Service noticeably dropped off when the manager's shift ended Overall: food had some chain-like qualities, service may be dicey, atmosphere is on the loud side, dark and moody

This place had an amazing deal for brunch! Got three person’s worth of food with $36 and it was more than enough variety. Good: - Every single dish was so tasty! Liked the sliders, the croquettes, and the churros a lot and French toast - really good variety and price value - Solid ambiance, very good for catching up in a semi private booth Bad: - A little slow on service Overall would come again!

We stopped in on a rainy Saturday afternoon on our way to an opening at the MET. Seated immediately at the bar. A few glasses of red wine, tomato bread and sautés shrimp. Perfect to hold us over until dinner! Food was great, we’re coming back for a full dinner!

It was a great place to eat and just to have a romantic dinner. Our server was great as well. We started with the appetizer which it was mushroom croquette delicious and creamy. Then we have las patatas bravas. Nice and cruncy with the amazing sauce. Then we have the amazing gambas, the shrimp and the sauce were so delicious. My boyfriend wanted more bread to eat the sauce. Then we have the flat bread with with onions and manchego cheese and goat chesse. That was so delicious. Then we have the thin noodles with squid a la tinta. That was really good definitely recommend it. Overall great place to eat and the drinks were also good.

Pete the manager is an amazing person when I first walked in he greeted me asked me if I needed help with menu and introduced himself this is why in about 2 months I have been there 7-8 times I love this place for lunch they have a killer happy hour Monday through Friday 3-6pm and weekend 4-6pm. He even as a great staff there Ricardo Nelly and jimmy are fantastic. Must go

We were looking for a nearby restaurant with an early dinner option, so we made a reservation at a place that opened at 5 PM. However, we arrived a bit early and didn't want to wait. Luckily, we stumbled upon this gem just down the street. It was the perfect choice! The service was impeccable, the staff were incredibly friendly, and the food was absolutely delicious. The manager, Peter, was particularly welcoming, super polite and accommodating. We'll definitely be returning soon.

We always choose the bar. But whet treat we had tonight… we met Luisa and Emanuel, what a stupendous duo the two of them. We laughed so much that we lost track of time. Food always amazing!

We arrived around happy hour on Saturday and it did not disappoint. My friend and I shared a pitcher of white sangria. Delicious and a great bang for the buck. We ordered multiple tapas(prices are cheaper during happy hour) and the service was amazing! Jose, JP and Derek took such good care of us. The food was very good and topped it all off with yummy churros. Will definitely be back.

The flavors in the lamb skewers were impeccable. It was so tender and juicy. I wasn't even hungry since I just had ramen from a place close by. I came here for drinks and left stuffed. My red sangria was light so I switched to the rose sangria which has rose wine, tequila and grapefruit. I would choose this over the red.

Yum! Stopped by for happy hour. Our favorites include the patatas bravas, bikini sandwich, bocadito jamon and of course, the churros! We also got the potato chips, mini hamburgers and pan con tomate. Would recommend visiting during happy hour (ends at 6pm) to take advantage of the sale. I'd say this is a great place to catch up with friends. Ambiance is nice and the service was great. One note - you can pay using the QR code on the table but we realized late that there's a $1.50 fee to use the online platform to pay. That was the default way to pay so I wish I requested to pay by paper receipt instead.

Service was lovely. I stopped by on my walk with my dog and couldn't go inside to let them know I was here because I was with her. Once they saw me, they came out, gave me a menu, brought her a little bowl of water, and were super attentive. My waitress suggested a glass of wine that was delicious and the flatbread and speak was amazing.

This place had an amazing deal for brunch! Got three person's worth of food with $36 and it was more than enough variety. Good: - Every single dish was so tasty!

I really enjoy Boqueria and it pains me to say that I wouldn't return to this location since I've enjoyed the ambiance and service at the SoHo location much more. I feel the wait staff is a bit nicer and more helpful. I felt we didn't get the best service at the UES location since we didn't order drinks...however we did order dessert and gave a nice tip. :-) The food was pretty good except for the mini burgers which were a bit burnt and the tortilla which was cold. The brussel sprouts and bacon wrapped dates with almond were good. My favorite is still the patatas bravas. We also got the lemon churro rellenos (churros stuffed with lemon curd served with blueberry sauce).

Came here for a quick couple of tapas - I'm a fan! The vibe inside is very aesthetic, would come back for their brunch/lunch deal. The pan con tomate was delicious - the olive oil was rich and a great contrast to the bite of the pepper on top. We got our food super quickly, maybe within 10 mins of us getting there

Food, service and ambience were great! We enjoyed each tapa we ordered! Red Sangria was very good!

I have been here many times. They have an amazing happy hour and their food/drinks are really good. So why only 2 stars? I'm here on a Wednesday and had a reservation. The restaurant was pretty empty. Instead of seating us at a corner spot or roomier table, the hostess squeezed us in a tight table in the middle of a row of tables. There were many available tables and I asked if there was something else free because we intented to order a lot of food and was told no. To add insult to injury, they sat another couple at the table right next to ours even with so many free tables around! I know that sounds like such a trivial complaint, but it doesn't make sense! It's 5pm on a Wednesday!? I'll be back for their Happy Hour but will ask to sit at the bar.

A solid and decently priced tapas place in the neighborhood. Not the most inventively flavorful dishes I've ever tried, but everything we ordered was solid. Main thoughts on the food are: - The squid ink paella was the standout, served with plenty of tender shrimp and matchingly tender fideo noodles instead of rice - The patatas bravas were also great, and came drizzled with a generous amount of aioli - The lamb skewers were a bit hard instead of tender so I would skip that next time Our server was also friendly and helpful, giving us thoughtful recommendations on what to order and accommodating allergies in the group. The place was bustling on a Friday night, but tables were spaced apart enough to give patrons room to navigate the room. Definitely a great catch up spot and came in clutch with a last minute reservation the night before!

A great happy hour menu! Tried all the items which included potatoes bravas, marinated olives, tomato jam bread with Serrano ham & manchego cheese, frittata of eggs, toasted bread with yogurt & fire roasted eggplant. For dessert, churros with chocolate dip! It was a great variety of tapas and pretty filling for two people. Tried the El Vermut drink which was interesting, bitter sweet tangy - it was red vermouth, soda & orange, it's not for everyone but I liked it. Staff were friendly and attentive, atmosphere was great with lounge vibes. Overall it was a great experience, will be back to try other tapas!

I met my friends at Boqueria for Saturday brunch. I'd definitely recommend getting a reservation, as it's a fairly busy brunch spot! We ordered churros, papas bravas, and a larger paella, all to share. Churros were really delicious and fried very crisply with a chocolate nutella dipping sauce. We finished this quickly. The papas were also yummy and came out warm with great seasoning. The paella was good but maybe just short of great. It was packed with lots of seafood so it was great value in that regard. I felt like it could have used more flavor, herbs and salt. We ended up ordering a bit too much, so I think the portion sizes are healthy and prices are alright. There aren't too many tapas spots, so I would recommend Boqueria for shareable bites.

Boqueria is a very well rounded place- I've been to the UES location and the SoHo one. SoHo is more cozy cute and Boqueria UES is a little more spacious. But you can get great lunch deals (and brunch apparently) and the dinner isn't so bad either. The food is incredible - I highly recommend the eggplant dip and the lemon zest Brussels sprouts. Haven't had paella here yet but everything I've ordered has been delicious- not a single miss. The service is rather fast and on the UES location they have online payment so you can easily split the tip. My friend is allergic to nuts so they were also careful to explain which dishes came in contact with the wrong pans. They're super accommodating and it's just hard to go wrong with Boqueria.

Boqueria is a lifesaver when it comes to needing a delicious dinner on a night without any reservations in hand. Every dish that I have had at Boqueria is extremely flavorful and I am thrilled every time I make a visit back. My girlfriend and I made our first visit to Boqueria earlier in the winter and were eager for some good tapas in the UES. We both have some food allergies and restrictions but with such an expansive menu, we were able to order 6+ items off the menu with no problem. We started off with the Olives which were an incredible start to the meal followed by the Pan Con Tomate and the Tortilla española, both of which were incredible. Our favorite bite of the night was the Patatas Bravas which is topped with an incredible duo of sauces and is cooked to perfection, a bite which we both come back for. The vibe and service in Boqueria are incredible and it has become one of our staples in the UES. Excited for more visits in the future.

Disclaimer: this review is for drinks only. I was in the UES for an educational dinner at a nearby restaurant but had some time to kill, so one of my colleagues and I thought it would be a good idea to stop here at Boqueria to grab a quick drink. There are a few Boquerias in the city; I went to one downtown many years ago (I think it has since closed) and remember enjoying it, so I was looking forward to seeing that the this location had to offer. Walking in, we were greeted by a large bar area with seating to the right and some tables to the right. We sat pretty close to the door so I didn't have a chance to scope out the whole space. Boqueria is mostly known for tapas - they have a good selection, but since we were eating soon elsewhere we just grabbed a drink. There was no skimping here either - they have a full bar selection including a number of signature and classic cocktails. I decided to go with the pina ahumada which had mezcal, pineapple, orange, and ginger. The drink was good - smooth and refreshing. Service was good, we were taken care of promptly and everyone was friendly. Overall, despite the short stay, I had a good experience at Boqueria and would definitely return for another drink and to rediscover their food menu.

This is my friend's favorite tapas place and I can see why! First off the ambience is amazing, it's dimly lit, very cozy and romantic while being spacious and comfortable. Love the decor and seating style. Now for the food, I was afraid they wouldn't have many vegetarian options but they had PLENTY!! So much so I wish I could drop by again to try them all! They had a great lunch deal of 24$ for two tapas and churros, my friend and I got the deal and tried four veg tapas with the patas bravas and mushroom croquets being our favorite. The potatoes were crispy, spicy and tangy, the creamy aioli on top complemented them perfectly. The mushroom croquettes (not pictured cos we devoured them) were AMAZING, they melt in your mouth, don't even taste like mushrooms and are so decadent. Wish they gave us more than three pieces lol. Service was super great and comped us a free tapas after giving us the wrong one by accident , all in all it was a wonderful experience!

Walked in for lunch on a Monday and got seated immediately. Service was super friendly and nice. We ordered a small paella and two tapas (manila clams and octopus) and it was delicious. I know other reviews said it took ~45 min for the paella but I guess because of timing in terms of the tapas coming out, it didnt feel like 45 minutes at all. The sauce for the manilla clams goes amazingly well with the bread and we ended up asking for more bread which was not charged! Octopus was cooked perfectly. Would definitely come again and try other tapas!

Great food Service is also great Handicap accessible Go for happy hour Great wines Dessert is a must

Time to update my review. We have been going to Boqueria UES since it opened and the food has always been top notch. Thankfully, that hasn't changed, the level of service has dropped....a lot. In short, we were in and out in less than 60 minutes. Not how I would like to spend a Saturday night out. When we arrived, we were crammed into a crowded bunch of tables when 85% of the restaurant was empty. We had: - Charcuterie - delicious - Potato Croquettes with Mushroom - very good - Eggplant tapas dish - good but I wouldn't get it again - Potatoes Bravas - delicious - Stuffed Dates - very good - Shrimp Dish - very good Again, the food is terrific and the sangria is delicious. Our severs were lovely and helpful but being in and out in under 60 minutes is unacceptable. Sitting on top of another couple in an empty restaurant is unacceptable. With so many great tapas restaurants, we will need to give thought as to whether or not we come back.

Have been to the Soho branch and once here and love this UES branch. Cute high tables and the dim lights are very comforting. We ordered the octopus, anchovies, lamb skewer, croquettes as well as fire roasted eggplants, finished with flan and ice cream as well shared the aperol spritz. Overall great service as food came in batches, and promptly, we didn't order the paella knowing it took 45 mins or more. I'm a big Tapas fan and this place is clearly a master and has its clientele. Only thing is we had booked our table through Resy and had noted we were celebrating birthday, usually most restaurants atleast get a candle on a mini cake or something ! Next time ....

I walked in and sat right down on a Sunday afternoon after the brunch rush. The food was alright but the service was great. I really loved the croquetas plated with quince pureé. The octopus came out very overcooked. The manager came over right away and took it off the bill.

It is November but still warm enough to eat outdoors so we chose a table outside side. I preferred it because it is not as noisy as it is inside. The tapas we ordered were the croquetas de jambon, meatballs, brussel sprouts, octopus and churros for desserts. The drinks we ordered were the sangaria and blood orange soda. All were delicious and my favorite were the meatballs and croquetas. The octopus was tasty but slightly tough. The server was efficient and friendly. All in all, it was pleasant and tasty but tapas add up. For 2 people it was $100 not including tip.

Great food and wonderful Sangria! The seafood pállela is especially delicious, as is the gambas al ajillo and pan con tomate. The service is attentive and helpful.. the only downside is that the level of energetic noise is loud inside. Fortunately we were able to sit on the patio

Date of visit: 17 June 2023 First Spanish restaurant that I tried since I moved to NYC. I'm sorry I had too many good spanish restaurants in my life (mostly overseas including Spain) but this is just not it. ~ Tortilla Espanola (1/5) ~ The tortilla is PALE. First time having a pale white tortilla. Just from the colour of it I already know it wouldn't taste good. Did it not use any egg yolk??? So obviously there is no egg flavour. Both the eggs and potato tasted very bland, not well seasoned. ~ Creamy mushroom croquettes, truffle allioli (3/5) ~ Ok it's a crispy creamy mushroom croquette alright, nothing spectacular. But I didn't really get any truffle taste. ~ Gambas Al Ajillo (2/5) ~ Ok this is NOT Gambas Al Ajillo. Authentic spanish Gambas dish is made with prawn, or at least larger than medium size shrimp. Look at the size of this, it's just ordinary small shrimps. I think it's the first time ever in my life that I have a Gambas dish in an upscale Spanish restaurant serving small shrimps instead of prawn (or even king prawns). The small shrimp itself are just ok, not the freshest I had. The sauce is not very garlicky either, and lobster reduction non existence. And this tapas cost $19, how do you justify it? ~ Paella de Mariscos / Seafood paella (2/5) ~ The seafood are mussels, squid, clams and shrimp. The shellfish tasted quite fresh. Rice is a bit too hard though. We ordered the S size. Wow it really is SMALL. Almost similar size to the garlic shrimp dish..... also the smallest paella I have ever had in my entire life. I have been to restaurants that offer a smaller size, but they are at least twice this size. At the cost of $29, it's way overpriced. ~ Churros (1/5) ~ One of the worst churros I have ever had. It's SO HARD and dry. A good churros should have a light and pillowy inside, but this churros simply doesn't have an "inside", the entire thing is just a hard shell. ~ Glass of Sherry ~ We are shocked when the glass is served. It's the size of a sample tasting wine glass, and only half full, it's ridiculous. Will I be back? NO Below average food, and way overpriced. This meal cost us $90 per person (with tips), I can get way better food at other restaurants with this price. If this is what an average Spanish restaurant taste like in NYC, then I have lost hope.

Ate here last night with another couple. When we walked in, the noise level was so high that we could not hear ourselves speak. The tables were on top of each other, and the place was very crowded. Wanted to try this place, since we all enjoy tapas, so we stayed. The portions were tiny, and the food had no taste. We all agreed that we will never eat here again. There are too many good restaurants in NYC.

Just had a wonderful evening at this restaurant- we had the chefs tasting menu- the food was delicious and plentiful, the service friendly and efficient. The atmosphere was charming. Will be back!

Really great service and great food. We ordered five items and that was perfect for two people. We ordered croquets de jamon, meatballs, lamb skewers, arugula salad and garlic shrimp. The star of the show was the skewers! Yum. I am a stickler for sangria though and the sangria here was a tad watery.

Dropped by for lunch and did the tapas lunch which includes 2 dishes from a pre-selected list per person and a churro w/ dipping chocolate. From the list, chose the patatas bravas, both types of croquettes, and the broccoli in white sauce. In addition, ordered the skirt steak medium-rare. Food was good and easy to share. Tapas lunch is only worth it if you want to try a variety of things. The churros at the end (two pieces with the dipping sauce) was good because it was just fried and not too sweet. I have been to other boquerias in the city and this location is standard and in-line with the other spots.

3rd time back and while I got the paella (still not as crispy as the 1st time I had it to my disappointment) and the Mushroom croquettes which I think are must haves, I also tried some new stuff. Asparagus: nicely charred with hazelnuts, but I preferred the Broccoli over this. Broccoli: very nicely roasted along with the Marconi almonds. I'd get this again for my vegetables. Bacalao: not a must have, it was nice enough for a generous portion of peas and squid ink, along with tender cod. Fideua negra: called a noodle paella, it caught our interest. The noodles are thin and very slimy(?), the texture was a little off putting but interesting to try. Wouldn't get it again though. Also got a pitcher of red Sangria, which was decent enough but would try another Sangria next time.

We visited my nephew and his husband in NYC, and they brought us here for dinner. It is such a cool NYC vibe. A small - midsized restaurant, we were seated immediately with a request to clear our table within the next 1.5 hours. More than enough time to enjoy this experience. We ordered drinks, which were crafted and SO GOOD! We did the samplers for the table and before we could blink, our table was filling with plates upon plates of hot, well seasoned and soooo tasty tapas. It was the perfect amount of food and was the perfect way to commune with our family as we all enjoyed and shared our meal together. Wonderful conversation was possible because of the way this meal was laid before us, the quick and attentive service the staff showered on us, and the atmosphere this restaurant prepared for its patrons. This is a definite recommend. But this is a PRICY recommend. For 3 mixed whisky drinks, a beer, 4 shared sampler platters and tip brought our meal total to around $315. Worth it for the lovely company and the wonderful conversation we had - but also for the meal and atmosphere. Thumbs up!

Not impressed at all! Tiny tapas for exorbitant prices! Our check was over well over $100 for two, with one round of drinks ... way way over-priced for very mediocre tapas. You are missing the entire point of a culture that eats tapas - it's supposed to be casual, inexpensive and delicious - you missed the mark on all three points. We will never return.

Thought the food and service were excellent! Everything was very flavorful and considering it is tapas the portions were decent! Will go back!

The best place for date night, or to take your mother when she's in town (mine is very picky). The ambiance is impeccable with just the right amount of lighting and noise, which is rarely paired with food that is actually good. The cheese and meat boards are a shareable favorite and the gambas are my favorite tapa hands down (the garlic in oil makes for a great dipping sauce when you're done). Happy hour is definitely where you'll get the best bang for your buck. You probably need a reservation on most nights to avoid a wait, unless you're just two people on a weekday.

Came for happy hour (3pm-6pm) weekdays and got a really good bang for my buck. Great tapa variety offered and even better drink prices (I love their sangria). I recommend if you're looking for a happy hour deal - they also have happy hour on weekends (4pm-6pm)!

Spent almost 200 here on the $65 tasting menu and nothing was up to hype. The date and blue cheese was overly sweet. The garlic shrimp was bad, the only good was the aged ham. I have always been a fan of tapas and this is just the brand name restaurant. Avoid at all costs

I had a phenomenal brunch at Boqueria. I highly recommend it if you're looking for an all you can drink option. In my group, only one other person and I ordered the drink option. They brought a pitcher of sangria to our table each time we ordered a different sangria. Each flavor was totally different. As someone who LOVES tequila, I really enjoyed their rose sangria with tequila (despite being someone who doesn't necessarily love rose). The tortilla española and pan con tomate made me so nostalgic of my breakfasts in Spain! Everyone at my table loved their food!! We left feeling full but not heavy as if we'd eaten too much. (If you're someone that wants big portions and are very hungry, order some additional tapas). The service was great. The wait staff were very patient with my indecisive table. I was happy that they brought us the pitchers of sangria so that we didn't have to chase down the waiter when we needed another alcoholic beverage.

Chose this as impromptu place for brunch in between watching the marathon yesterday. It was madness yesterday along 2nd Avenue UES and this was a welcome relief. Was able to walk in with 3 friends and got a nice table inside. The host was pretty nice and friendly too. AC was pretty good considering the humidity yesterday. Abigail was our server and was attentive despite the place getting more packed an hour and so after. We started off with a round of drinks (Cava for me, sangria for my friends) and they were pretty refreshing. On to the tapas, we chose the marinated olives, croquetas de jamon (so good!), croquetas de setas (divine!) and the Pan con Tomate (so simple yet so delectable!). We ordered the medium Paella de Mariscos to share and after the wonderful tapas, the paella just rounded off the enjoyable experience. We ordered another round of drinks. Overall we paid $204 including the 20% gratuity. Would have been perfect 5-star except I realized we were never told that there was an unlimited sangria or mimosa offer for brunch that we could have taken advantage of. I had to find out in the brunch menu online now. Oh well. :) Overall it was still a nice experience.

Fantastic Tapas bar. Great food, great service. Fantastic atmosphere 5/5 without a doubt

One of my go to places for tapas and paella on the UES! Quality food, delicious sangria and a warm welcome atmosphere. Only complaint is it gets a bit noisy especially if you're towards at back near the open kitchen area.

Delicious my favorite was the Serrano ham, the crispy Brussels sprouts, bacon wrapped dates, and paella. The wait staff could not have been more attentive and we even met Sam the manager who made sure we had a great dining experience! Highly recommend

Got the lunch special. Included 2 tapas and 2 churros. Croquetas Jamone and tortillas espanola. Both had 3 tiny pieces. Menu says It's meant to be shared. God forbid someone was hungry. The sauce for the tortillas was good ole fashion Helmans mayo. The croquettes had sauce under 2 of the 3 and it might have been good if you could find it. The churros were meant for a new baby who's teething. Sad attempt. They really need to hire a food truck churro maker. Oh by the way tip and prison portion meal= $31. No drink. Won't be going back

I enjoy Boqueria for a good bottomless brunch. They give a lot of food and do a decent job at making sure the bottomless drinks flow. I really enjoy their patatas bravas and pan con tomate. They've also made us a vegetarian paella which was nice of them. I've been coming here since I moved to the neighborhood. Ambiance - really nice. A fun place for friends or a date. Price - the bottomless brunch is a really good deal.

Walked here from The Met for lunch on a gorgeous day. We sat outside without a reservation. The waiter was very nice. The kitchen may be short staffed. The food took way too long. At least everything was good. We got each small plate separately with long time lapses between. The pan con tomate was good. We didn't taste any garlic which of course there should have been. The patatas Bravas was good. Ensalada Cogollos was good. It needed more dressing for flavor Pulpo a la Plancha was great. Cooked perfectly. We'd eat here again when in the area. Especially if we can sit outside on a beautiful day.

Good at boqueria is always delicious, salty, slightly oily, and the drinks are strong. It was relatively quiet for an early Sunday dinner. The meat and cheese board is always a hit, comes with lots of variety AND the tomato garlic bread!

UPDATE- Boqueria is like wine getting better each time I try I love the dining experience of Spanish culture that Boqueria just gets. Unhurried, tapas served plate by plate, lively bustling environment. New dishes I tried in order of need it in ur mouth immediately to respectfully not thinking about it anymore (also look at their website for super helpful yummy pics) Gambas al ajillio $19 -sweet shrimps swimming in a garlicky oily pool. fried lil pieces of thinly sliced garlic and im not kidding when i say i would eat this w a spoon but t god they give bread so i dont appear so ravenous Esparragos con romesco (seasonal) -juicy stalks of asparagus dressed in aoili and sprinkled w cheese and hazelnuts. cut up into bite size pieces.. hazelnuts and asparagus are the duo of the year Pollo rustido (half portion) $23 -lemony, succulent w a very chimichurri like salsa verde drizzled on top Escalivada +$15 and boquerones + $6) -this was prob the most exciting item to try. eggplant with an option to add anchovies? never tried anything like this so say less!! -tapendade style eggplant with yogurty sauce. refreshing and mild slighty tangy -.. BUT add the boquerones (pickled white anchovies) and what a game changing combo!! that rush of saltiness balanced with yogurty eggplant spread... these are the exciting flavors im lookin to try -ALSO special shout-out bc these can be ordered as two separate tapas (cept boquerones are $12) but our waiter said just do this option and I LOVE when they're just lookin out for u like that Datiles con beicon $9 -i swear i blinked and those 3 pieces were gone. the date is overpowering or maybe the blue cheese and bacon is lacking. this could be workshopped for better balance and standout of flavors Churro con chocolate (5 piece) $8 -tradish churro so it's not like doused in cinnamon sugar but it makes for a great base for that subtly sweet hot chocolate Pan con tomate $8 -thick chunky bread but nothin spesh. saved it dip in the gambas dish A few more items to try out but maybe ill go the Boqueira experience route which is like their $65 per person Chefs choice option as im sure it is a fantastic, wordly culinary treat (excuse the photos, my sweet mom is still learning the aesthetic part of pics hahaha)

Stopped by this place on a whim; I thought it was okay but I've had better tapas elsewhere. The service was rather slow; although they were pretty busy that night. We ordered a paella and a few of the tapas. I thought everything was decent; the paella was a bit salty but overall not bad, and the tapas were salty but didn't have quite the refined flavor of other spots.

The perfect date night spot! Loved the cozy ambiance and the service was excellent. Our tapas came out quick and hot, and all of them were excellent. Some of my favorites were the patatas bravas, the croquettes, and the shrimp. Definitely will be returning!

Came here for my birthday. Dining area was dim with a open view of the the kitchen. Staff and service was exceptional and so friendly! We ordered the "Boqueria Experience" which included a charcuterie board (30 month aged Jamón ibérico at the top of the picture), 5 tapas, and a seafood paella. The staff said what each tapa was right before serving it (I forgot most of the names sorry! ) Since it was my birthday, the staff was nice enough to gift a churro with a sparkly candle stuck in it that came with a side of light chocolate sauce. Overall, the Boqueria experience was good. It was worth to try once but I probably would not come back.

Seafood Paella - Small Gambus is very good The inside of this restaurant is also nice and comfortable.
