    This is one of my favorite places in NYC, a neighborhood gem. Great wines, better sangria, good food and always a good energy with the crowd. Come early and stay late.

    Wow. I have had lots of tapas in my life and I am thoroughly impressed. The tortilla was amazing and the torrija for dessert was probably one of the best desserts Ive ever had. Highly recommended.

    You can't go wrong with anything on the menu, but if you don't want to wait, show up early. This is a popular local spot and patrons tend to camp out for more than an hour on average.

    Lamb Chops and bacon wrapped dates are a must!!! The goat cheese is another chart topper. The Sangria was sweet and tasty. The ambiance is mature, sexy and cozy. This is my new go to spot!!!

    A secret little tapa place on UWS. The manager/owner was very on top of it -- opening the door, thanking is for coming, making sure the place was running smoothly. Very good

    The absolute best wine list in the city if you like old South American reds. The food is rich and delicious. The location and outdoor seating is perfect.

    Candlelit and cozy tapas joint with an awesome maître d’ and sommelier – they’ll remember you next time you visit. We loved the dates, lamb sliders and salt cod croquettes.

    Really friendly service, great wines and delicious tapas. Have yet to have dinner there, but if it's as good as the small plates, awesome.

    The set list: churrasco, drapes with bacon, lamb sliders, croquetas de queso manchego and gambas al ajillo. Ran a nice cold negra modelo beer to go along.

    Really outstanding. Get the bacon-wrapped dates and pork belly for sure. Also get the scallop special if it's available. Add in some veggies too; they're small plates. Save room for dessert.

    Wine by the glass is a bit pricey but the food is so delicious it makes it worth it. Such a cozy and welcoming place.

    My favorite tapas place on the west side. Lamb sliders- perfect. Wild boar paella, boom. Lots of tasty items on the menu and a great wine selection.

    Best tapas and sangria on the upper west side. Sangria is strong and fruity. Best tapas include the lamb burgers and the baked eggplant.

    A great spot for tapas in the UWS. We recommend the bacon wrapped dates and the lamb sliders. Perfect for an early or late dinner.

    It used to be a great place. But for the past few months quality is less excellent than it used to be, it seems that prices increased and service is slower. What happened? I loved this place

    Try the Raventòs i blanc, pair with croquettes, Lamb sliders, or bacon wrapped date.

    decent food and good affordable wines, but incredibly slow and sporadic service. they may have been understaffed with outdoor seating opened up.

    Delicious food but some items are not on par with the rest: the paella albeit stacked with ingredients it is too watery and the rice is bland. The sliders were normal as well.

    The size of the dishes is small, even main course. People go there more for hanging out and drinking rather than food. But nice atmosphere for a Saturday night. The restaurant is small and noisy tho.

    Nice staff, cute location, but both food and wine were decidedly mediocre. Don’t begrudge the meal, but there are FAR better tapas spots in NYC.
