Mercado Little Spain, José Andrés’ Colossal Hudson Yards Food Hall, Opens Friday | Eater NY

"For a classic tapas stop, Bravas serves patatas bravas—potatoes cut into cubes, fried, and topped with a spicy tomato sauce—and I would take the portion to share with friends in “the plaza,” the market’s central seating area." - Carla Vianna

Best burger I have had in awhile. The fries were just so crunchy and soft in the best ways. My husband got the snoop dog hot dog he loved it.

Ever since the early hot dog days I have never been disappointed. However the Tapas are in a different league. And you will always be treated as family.

Guys. This is the best local burger and brunch joint in town. Mid-range price level, and worth EVERY penny, every time. Everything is made in-house and you can taste it. Get the Patatas Bravas, you won’t regret it. Supporting a local restaurant is absolutely no chore and a no-brainer here.

I came here yesterday for the very first time, and I am already planning my return. The overall experience was excellent, starting with the good service and continuing right through to the impressive quality of the food. I ordered the Snoop Burger and swapped the raw onion for grilled onion. Let me tell you, this burger is a masterpiece—hands down tied for the the best smash burger I've had anywhere in the Hoosier state ! It was not greasy at all, had a crisp outside, soft inside, was well seasoned, and paired perfectly with all the toppings. It was an easy 11/10 experience! I highly, highly recommend this place.

I had been wanting to try the steak frites for a while now and they did not disappoint! The fries were crispy and fresh as always and the steak was tender and full of flavor. The chimichurri sauce was perfect, all around my new favorite meal at Bravas!!

I've been thinking about this burger for the last few days ... and it may just be enough of an excuse to plan a stopover in Fort Wayne again soon. My husband and I were on a road trip to Indiana Dunes National Park, and we were driving through the area around lunch time. We were craving burgers and pulled up Yelp, which directed us to the adorable and delicious Bravas. We found free street parking nearby, and ordered at the counter with no wait. The decor is colorful and quirky, which is a fun parallel to the inventive menu. I couldn't resist the West Coast burger, which seemed to be their take on the In-N-Out burger. I appreciate that they put their own spin on a classic, rather than just trying to copy it. The sauce was incredible, and the burger itself was cooked throughout with a perfectly crispy crust. Pair that with a side of seasoned fries, and this was the perfect road trip fuel. My husband also ordered the West Coast, along with the Bravas Dog. He'll never say no to a chili cheese coney, and this was a fun rendition with crispy potato sticks on top to add some extra texture. Bravas team, keep on doing what you're doing!

This is the best smash burger in the city. There is no comparison to the other "Guys"! The smash on the burger, the crispy ring, soft bun, and fresh veggies make it top tier. The staff is always cordial and accommodating. They make each customer feel just as welcomed as the last. There is seating inside and outside with about 9 tables inside and a small bar seating option.

Arguably one of FW's best burger joints... If you like Cali-style smash burgers, Bravas is the place to be... Chill atmosphere, friendly service, and outstanding burgers makes Bravas a must try. I'd put their burger up against some of FW's best (Henry's, Kekionga, etc.) and their house patatas are a party in your mouth and all of FW is invited... Insanely good. The only knock on Bravas is the price... $14 for a double West Coast burger (no fries, just the burger) is completely outrageous. They really need to figure out a reasonably priced combo meal and it would put them over the top. Nonetheless, Bravas is as good as advertised.

The food and service at Brava's is excellent! Saturday night I had one of the best steaks I have ever eaten.

Tried bravas for lunch during savor Fort Wayne. This was their updated location as they used to be a couple doors down. They have an exterior patio that was heated but it was too warm to sit out there for me. Inside the nice but small. Burger was delicious and filling. Fries were crispy but a little salty if I was being picky. I tried the Bravas sauce with was delicious. I missed their thrice fried patatas. No complaints on service. I would come back here.

I don't know why it took me so long to visit Bravas. It is nothing short of amazing. Casual without being a dump or cliche. Delicious without being fussy. Good food, Good vibes, Good everything. I had the Peanut Butter Burger and was totally blown away. If I could I would eat 3 in one sitting. Juicy crispy salty. So so good. The other burgers tried at my table were the Snooop and the West Coast. I had the Patatas, they had the fries. So excellent. I like the picnic table seating on the patio (it's heated for winter!) and the open kitchen. No hiding here, what you see is what you get. Cloth napkins, real silverware, glass glasses. Is Bravas my new favorite? Probably.

This was our first visit to Bravas' new location. This location is a lot brighter because there are huge windows looking out to the patio dining. I pretty much only wanted the patatas bravas but ordered the Snoop Dog (beef hot dog, smoked gouda cheese, garlic aoili) as well. My husband had the Snoop Burger (smash burger, garlic aioli, onion, lettuce, Ossian bacon) and Patatas Bravas. Everything tasted fantastic! Our lunch partners were really impressed and said they'd be back with their grandkids. We took a piece of lemon pie and Basque Chocolate Cheesecake home. Yum! I'm glad we took them home before trying them because I'd have been tempted to order a second piece to go.

Bravas always gives you quality food, good service, and a killer atmosphere. Highly recommend the Patatas Bravas, Chicken Sandwich, or the Bacon Cheeseburger. You cannot possibly go wrong with any of their creations. It's a must try in Fort Wayne.

You know how you feel when you find a wadded up $20 in a pocket somewhere. That's how you feel when you leave Bravas, a sincere calm, warm, and looking forward to what is coming because you are set. Everything about Bravas is of value, the art is fun and inspiring, the people are really fun and inspiring, and then the food. whatever you choose I have eaten it and am telling you that happiness can be bought. Come here with your friends, chill and enjoy a wonderful meal.

Went for the first time, for dinner with a friend on Tuesday. It was SO great! We shared a special burger & several appetizers, dessert & a bottle of wine. Every single dish was special and delicious. Would love to try it all! The server warned us it was their busiest night, but service was great. The atmosphere was lively & cheerful. As an out-of towner, I wish I could return again and again. Sitting outside was ideal for me. My one complaint was that inside the exhaust system was under performing. I was coughing & nearing overwhelmed by the scents & grilling meats inside the very cute seating area.

This has become my favorite place to eat in Fort Wayne. Food is top notch, the perfect blend between American and true Spanish food. My girlfriend is from Spain and said that is the best Spanish food she has ever eaten in the U.S. Even better? The staff, they are super friendly, attentive to detail and made our experience unforgettable. The owner came and talk to us and she is the best as well. Becky you are the best. We can't wait to be back. - Franco & Claudia.

The service is wonderful. One of the best burgers in town ! I can't help but order the Patty melt. The french fries are the best. Their sauces are great.

Excellent food and excellent ambiance! This was a bit of a gem for my boyfriend and I to find in town. I was looking for a new burger place to try, and I happened upon this place on Yelp - the menu looked tempting to say the least. It was a bit of a ways away from us, but we decided to make the trek over and give it a go on a lazy Saturday. The burger was so, so good, honestly one of the best smash burgers I've had! The fries and fried potatoes were GREAT. And everything else on the menu is something I definitely want to try later on... I seriously can't believe how excited I am to come back and try more.

Fantastic service and totally yummy tapas. We had shishito peppers, papayas bravas, pan con tomate, and berenjena (eggplant).

Anytime I'm out of town on business. I always look for the hotspots. This one came highly recommended, and it did not disappoint. Small local dive restaurant. Known for the burgers I had the honey pimento fried chicken sandwich. Likely in my top 10 favorite all-time sandwiches it was to die for. They do have 3 to 4 beers on tap and a wine selection. Small patio. Alternative vibe. Great ambience and atmosphere. Just a local joint that doesn't disappoint on the food end at all. Will definitely visit again when in Fort Wayne.

A great local story about a local hot dog cart then food truck and then store front establishment. The "newer" location has a great vibe and feel to it, especially the outdoor seating. The burgers, hot dogs and fritatas will always be the go to, but the new kitchen arrangement has alliwes for some more dinner options. A nice steak presentation being one of them. We always try to support local and highly recommend you giving Bravas your full attention for a great local eatery.

I've now been to Brava's at their new location 3 times and haven't been disappointed, even a little. Burgers, dogs, and patatas are still on point. The croquetas, eggplant, and other items on the expanded menu are some of the best "fancy" foods I've had at a restaurant. I'm usually disappointed by such items at higher priced restaurants, including some of those in Fort Wayne. Not the case here. I've found the service to be top notch as well. At the old location, I had some long wait times and have had the opposite experience in their new digs. Bo, Sean, and the rest of the staff are so friendly and bona fide basketball nerds who are happy to discuss whatever happened to Roy Hibbert, Shea Serrano books/podcasts, and other obscure basketball trivia. The ambiance is what you'd expect of elder-millennial foodie/basketball nerd core people opening a restaurant. And that's a good thing in my book.

I love that you can get somewhat adventurous with Bravas new menu and still get a damn good smashburger or hot dog, pretty rad. Anyway, food was great, friendly service and a great neighborhood restaurant vibes. Will be back to support this local business and these hard working business owners. Eat here.

Their food is delicious, service was very friendly and professional. A smaller inside location, but very cozy and very tasty! I am posting pictures just so people have a general idea of what's there, the blue menu seems to be more seasonal items that they switch out. But they are a very local, hip place, they may or may not have an item- anything you get there is delicious!

Trisha B.

Yelp
Overall disappointing. They were out of multiple things we were interested in trying, the wait staff was very blasé blasé, and the food we ended up choosing was subpar. The steak frites were disappointing, the burger was extremely salty, and our patatas portion size compared to our peers was noticeably less. I will not be coming back.

I had never been to Bravas before so i'm a first timer. I ordered a hot dog and their little potato side. My food was good but i felt it was a little pricey my husband did get a very tasty burger and he was happy. Just a little disappointed in the cost. but all in all i was glad to have tried it.

Wonderful and terrific service. Pricing is very fair for the quality you get. You can get a hot dog and your date can order one of the best steaks in town and you can finish it off with a very good dessert.

Very high prices for what you get. Basic food at an inflated cost. Even the Scooby snacks are overrated and overpriced. I really like the idea of having a hamburger and hot dog joint in the area where they ate located, but their idea seems to be basic food at higher prices that might draw in people from other areas. Not a good model for the neighborhood where they are located and probably not sustainable. Wish them the best, but I won't be back unless they make some changes, either to the menu or to the prices. I would just recommend trying them and judging for yourselves.

Back at Bravas again for the second time less than a week after my last visit. Today we tried the caramel apple burger and steak frites. Steak was cooked to a perfect medium rare and served over a bread of delicious seasoned fries. The caramel apple burger was also a big hit. It does literally have caramel and apple slices, which may seem off putting to some but the combination of sweet and salty is definitely worth giving it a try. Service was excellent as usual. The restaurant was busy so be prepared that you may need to wait a minute or two for a table!

This place was absolutely amazing! The wife and myself went here after going to the Farmers Market. The outside of the building isn't much to look at but the inside was clean, vibrant, and generally just felt nice to be in. We both ordered the build yer burger with potatoes and salad. The potatoes were crisp outside and soft inside. The salad was colorful and decorative and served in a cold bowl the way a salad should be served. It wasn't just some lettuce that was dumped out of a bag. It was an impressive presentation for such a small eatery. The vegan burgers ( made in house) we had were delicious! We will definitely be frequenting Bravas quite often for as long as they are around. I highly recommend eating here!

I've been wanting to try Bravas for a while and finally got the chance, I ordered a build your own burger and the patatas bravas. Would highly recommend both, the service was amazing and it was so nice to sit outside and enjoy the food!
