"A Spanish spot that maintained its one-star standing." - Melissa McCart
"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." - team infatuation
"There’s something reassuring about a kitchen that brings in whole beasts and does its own butchery, and this small but perfectly formed room proves it with dishes that aren’t those one-bite wonders blighting so many places. Scrambled eggs with uni is a must, while confit goat will make you question why you don’t see more of it on other menus; this is food to cure what ails you." - The MICHELIN Guide
"Casa Mono is a reliable classic that will impress anyone in the market for small plates of seafood, meat, and vegetables. Just know that a tapas dinner here can get expensive quickly, and you usually can’t just walk in. (Even the bar next door, Bar Jamón, is often too busy for you to find a seat.) Make a reservation and come here on a double date with people who won’t mind sharing things like bacalao croquetas, goat confit, and crispy pig ears.

"For a perfect solo night, my go-to for years has been a seat at the chef’s table; the awe-inspiring menu and divine wine list count as self-care for me any day." - Edward Barsamian
