El Born

Great spot for some simply good tapas . Awesome and inexpensive happy hour on Sundays. Get one of everything on the happy hour menu . Service is great and a garden area outback. Try the gazpacho

I love this place! Tuesday Pallea night is amazing! Pallea for two and a bottle of wine for $50! Great for date night , the cocktails are delicious, and they have a pre-fix menu for large parties .

The tapas menu at El Born is heavy on the vegetable dishes , but you'll also find lamb chops , foie gras with quince, quail with chocolate , and crispy rabbit . Read more

Makes me feel like home, in Barcelona. It tastes the closest to real Catalan tapas in nyc! Good wine and beer selection too.

As of Fall 2014, there is a new chef and new seasonal menu . Much more creative presentation ! Paella is delish. Socarrat was the perfect nutty, crunch you expect. Bravas is better than ever.

Really loved this place. Great shitito peppers and potatoes bravas . The wine list is wonderful and the atmosphere is romantic but not fancy . Loved it.

The $45 9-tapas special is a GREAT deal. Nice vibe, solid food, would def. come back.

Oxtail cannelloni ! And mushrooms ! Omgawd.

Live music ! Great selection of tapas , excellent paellas , fixed price menu is the best for large parties .

The grilled octopus dish is plentiful and delicious. Crispy and flavorful. Also, pretty solid happy hour deals .

Excellent food, service and wine . Get the croquetas and paella . Or come for happy hour !

Grilled octopus is a must. Also extremely legit 2 for 1 gin and tonics on Thursdays!

The Mushroom Spread is excellent you must try the Cod appetizer and the chocolate croquettes

This place was great but beware the spicy martini is indeed spicy . Oh and they have PX!

Cute patio and great tapas happy hour . Will definitely be back!

Cozy spot to host a birthday dinner . Order the tuna tartare !

We ordered a lot of tapas and nothing was wonderful

Grill octopus is really good. Green tomatoes are what ever

A slice of Spain in Greenpoint! Great food and wine .

Nice courtyard and happy hour pitchers of Margarita .

Tried three different tapas : the patatas bravas , the octopus , and some sort of meatballs . All of them were bland. The octopus just tasted like the oil it was cooked in.

Very good tapas

Such a lovely spot. Get the tuna .

Grill Octopus and Cava of your dreams.

50% off bottles of wine on Mondays! ???? ???? ????

Get the Braves El Born! Just do it.

Eat the grilled octopus , drink the Spanish hot toddy

Great happy hour !

Tapas , beer , happy hour

Very European, i.e. great food, awful service.

Such a nice tapas place . Delicious paellas ! Especially the one with seafood .

Food did not live up to reviews

Sadly I do not recommend this place. While the service was lovely, the food was really disappointing.

Avoid this place. I'm from Barcelona and this is not the real deal.

Service is mediocre. Food too. Wait until they get it together before coming here.

Not bad but not worth the $$$ \_(ツ)_/¯

Long wait for bad food.

Sangria y comida española . ‘Nuff said.
