Everyone tells you to get the patatas bravas , and you should! But the pintxos morunos (lamb skewers ) are perfection. Best tapas in the city , by far.

Michael Sisk

Bottomless Brunch for $39. 4 tapas , 2 breakfast dishes , 1 dessert , and 4 drink choices (mimosas , red, white, and special sangria ). Wifi password is "NutellaChurros"

I absolutely loved this place. Went here with a group of 8 women. The ambiance and service were good- not too loud . I also loved that there were non shellfish tapas and paella options. Food was delish

Tim Van den heede

Nice athmosphere, great service, Squid dish came luke warm, great taste but hotter was better, pan con tomate at the level of an average Barcelona tapas bar , great wines , chorizo / manchego great !

Cole Kennedy

The wine is a smidge pricey , but this is still one of the coziest spots in the area to sit down for tapas and red wine . Plus, wicked friendly staff .

Marissa C

Always crowded and loud , but solid tapas . Can't go wrong with some ham , garlic shrimp and octopus . Top it off with the Txakolina wine and watch them pour it to effervescent deliciousness!

Elvis Rodricks

Beer sangria was very refreshing. Croquettes , bacon dates and cast iron shrimp hit the spot. Portions were generous and service impeccable. Skip the nutella churros . Great tapas place !

Sam Pezzullo

Best to go with a large group so you can order as much as possible. Everything is delicious! My favorites are the lamb meatballs , patatas bravas , and the tortilla .

Mayza Melo

Awesome place nd awesome food! Good place to enjoy in the end of the day, have the best rose sangria that u ever tried, and bests tapas ! Try paella , it's pretty great!

amy pelletier

I love this place, very good selection of Spanish wines and beer , the flank steak with peppers and potatoes is fabulous and they have wonderful Serrano hams and Spanish cheeses . ????????

Deb

Get the Croquetas Cremosas!!

Salvatore Canfora

Pan tomate is very good but try the shrimps , they are served in a garlic soupe ! Cozy and authentic enviroment, open until late

Destination: Anywhere & Everywhere

Great tapas restaurant in the city . Order the white sangria ! The lamb albondigas, sautéed spinach with pine nuts and the spicy shrimp with garlic were amazing dishes. You won't be disappointed.

Ms Helene

Steamed mussels white wine , chorizo & toasted bread $14 and sautéed spinach pine nuts , raisins , chickpeas & lemon $7. Highly recommended. Gets busy so book or go early to sit at the bar .

Mariel Lëmair

It can get *very* loud in here [no matter at what time of the day you stop by] Start with the bacon wrapped date—it has a nice surprise of a crunchy almond when you bit into this bite-sized delight!

Brent Lawless

Delicious Spanish style tapas . Meat and cheese plates are a great start, followed by some gambas and lamb skewers .

The Corcoran Group

Incredible and authentic Spanish Tapas ! Enjoy Sangria and a meal of Cojonudoi, Datiles con Beicon, Salteado de Setas, Gambas al Ajillo and Patatas Bravas .

Joan Park

i would go back for the red sangria and nutella stuffed churros . bacon wrapped dates , flatbread with pork belly and octopus were okay. skip the croquetas and patatas bravas .

funky flavor

The patatas bravas , the mushroom croquete and the meat balls are great. Also try the quail eggs if you can!! Very worth it for a tapas night and light eating.

Elizabeth Burstein

Awesome iberico ham , manchego cheese and pan con tomate, potato bravas and dates. Tempranillo wine

Trang Tran

Everything was great here especially the pork belly . The skin was super crispy while the meat/fat just melts in your mouth.

Serious Eats

A long wine list and high energy makes this tapas bar good for a night out with groups, though note that the small plates can quickly add up in price.

Peggy Chan

what is there not to love? personal favorites are the lamb meatballs , serrano ham and mushroom croquettes , dates with bacon , espinaca dish and flat bread with mushroom , chorizo and caramelized onion

Amaury J

I really loved it, and felt like I was in Spain for a quick second, but I think it’s a bit overpriced for what you get! Everything was delicious, though.

Matthew Caldecutt

The salted anchovies were my favorite, but the croquetas and lamb meatballs were great too. The plates are for sharing, but four dishes went a long way

Lori Luo

Daily specials are available in addition to their fixed menu . Opt for the tortilla , bacon-wrapped dates, and albondigas; and don't forget to ask for more bread .

Carrie

Everything was good, and the portions were bigger than expected for tapas . I really liked the eggplant dip

محمد السجا

One of the best restaurants in nyc. Great pimientos , patatas bravas , pan con tomate, gambas al ajio, flan . Great atmosphere as well ! Enjooooy!

ºDamian White º

Fantastic, AUTHENTIC Spanish tapas ! Was a nice return from Spain, after our craving for the cuisine. Filled that hungry void for some good Tortilla , Squid & Croquetas nicely. (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

Hayley Schulkind

All of their tapas dishes are delicious,especially Gambas al Ajillo , Escalivada, and the Pintxos Morunos. Patatas Bravas are a must!

Untapped Cities

While many “Spanish” restaurants often combine Spanish food with Mexican and Latin-American foods, Boqueria sticks to authentic European Spanish cooking. Read more

Gabriel Hayes

So many amazing sangrias . Loved the Sangria De Naranja Sanguina (Blood Orange , Tequila , Lime Cordial topped with cava or beer )

Gerardo Panza

I didn’t try Paella but my wife and I ate Some entrance however next time we will go for Paella , looks delicious

Rachel Wang

Great spot for post work tapas and drinks! Food comes out quickly too. Come before 8pm to snag a table easily

Village Voice

Venture farther inside and find lamb kebabs doused with sharp salsa verde , baby octopus salad , and sausage crostini surmounted by a fried quail egg . Read more

Dina

Some of the best tapas in NYC. Shrimp with garlic , croquettas and potato bravas are a must. Very busy and fills up fast.

Swati

Bacon wrapped dates . Croquettes . Corn . Churros (dulce de leche). Order those and you are winning at life!

sue q

Great tapas . Order the fish on special. Great fluke and Amazing scallops . Bread with tomato .

Namitta Shankar

Broccoli con valdeon-brilliant, Espinacas a la catalana- too much salt Patatas bravas - flavorful, Aged manchego - fantastic,Sangrias - best I've had in NYC. Not great service (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

Erin Shea

Definitely a loud restaurant but the bacon wrapped dates are worth the noise. They are divine.

Valentina Monte

LOVE it here. Order anything and everything. Particularly: prosciutto/cheeses, brussel sprouts , garlic shrimp , chorizo , and everything else on the menu.

Morgan Polotan

Gambas al Ajillo and Patatas Bravas are the two best tapas on the menu. Octopus and bacon-wrapped dates are mediocre.

Sarah P.

Gambas and lamb skewers . Great happy hour deal but only at the barz.

ᴡ B

Get the bacon-wrapped dates, croquetas , and jamón serrano . Enjoy a pitcher of red sangria while you're there too!

Alexandria Lang

one of the best bottomless brunches . Go with friends and get the tapas !

Roger Ehrenberg

The croquetas are sublime. The tortilla is delicious as well . If they have the Brussels sprouts , apple and pine nuts as a special, get it!!

Helen Shakespeare

Tapas that are authentic , flavoursome and delicious. Great service and lovely atmosphere

Rosi Liriano Facenda

Sangrias are a must.. very good, very strong. Plus tapas are awesome. Space a little bit tight but fine

honeywhatscooking.com

Patatas Bravas . White Sangria . Mushroom croquettes . Shush uti Margarita - similar to Jalapeño Margarita . Churros & Chocolate sauce. Seafood Paella is pretty good.

Tanner Christensen

Blood orange mimosas for brunch , try the oxtail stuffed peppers , lamb meatballs , or croquettes . Can't go wrong.

The lobster Mac and cheese is awesome! $30 for bottomless mimosa, sangria, and a few other options plus an entree. The mimosas weren't strong but still worth the $30. Great atmosphere and music. - Byron Flores
