Boqueria - New York

Amazing food, atmosphere, and service! First time having tapas and loved it. Would highly recommend the salad and the dates with bacon. The paella was good too, the seafood on top was delicious, but the rice could have been more flavorful and crispy. But otherwise had a great time

The service was great the server gave great recommendations. They had a special where you could get an appetizer, two plates and a dessert for $35, so one of us did that and the other one got small plates. The lamb skewer was by far my favorite. The bread literally melted in my mouth. The patatas bravas were well seasoned. Would definitely love to try more in the future!

Amazing, as always! The service was excellent, friendly, and attentive. The food was perfectly prepared— the churros were a bit over cooked— but everyone is entitled to an off day. Just a consistently good restaurant- a must try!

Eh. Not impressed. I came here after reading all the great reviews and the food was nothing to rave about. Maybe I’ll try something else next time. But the food I got was not that great. Portions were very small. Patatas Bravas was completely burnt to a crisp. If you are looking for a good Spanish restaurant, I would go elsewhere. There are many other great ones in NYC. Also, seating was very very tight. At one point, I was shoulder-to-shoulder with the other guests next to me. And on top of that, service was slow.

Great ambiance. Can feel a lil loud but still highly recommended for dates. Lighting here is a thing of a beauty. Poppin tapas dishes: Boquerones, an anchovies dish, was not fishy at all but rather had nice lemony scent/taste. Maiz Rustido, their seasonal dish, had nice mixture of spicy and cheesy flavors. But Patatas Bravas was a big disappointment. The textures were inconsistent and some spots were burnt to an extent we felt unpleasant. Gambas was blend. Not enough flavor at all. Paella was above average but by then we were bloated it takes 40+ mins for Paella to be ready. Overall, it’s worth a shot. But if you’re expecting Barcelona, you’ll only get that visually.
