This visit to Boqueria was very random. I decided to go to SoHo for dinner and I wasn't exactly sure where. My coworker gave me three suggestions (I won't mention the others) and I went with Boqueria. There are certain things that stand out to me when I'm reading reviews and looking at the photos. So this was the one for me. And let me tell you they did not disappoint. I didn't have a reservation but they were able to accommodate me. The atmosphere was pretty lively after work. They have a really nice happy hour menu as well. I ordered a few plates because hey! I need to report back to you guys lol. The wrapped dates in bacon OMG! The skirt steak, savory and cooked to perfection! The lamb skewers delectable. I also had another small dish which was a potatoe dish batatas something sorry forgot the name. But anyway you get the picture. Wait wait the sangria was sooo good!!! All in all a good choice and I will certainly keep this one on my radar! read more

Really great restaurant! Indoor is really nice, charming, and cool. The outdoor patio is cute and nice. The food was good, the only thing why I'm not giving a 5 star review is because the chicken was a bit burned. Otherwise I loved the sweet potato and broccolini. read more

Boqueria is a good spot to go if you're looking to share tapas and try a variety of dishes in a relaxed setting. I had the Tabla de Quesos y Embutidos, which had a nice assortment of fresh cheeses and cured meats, paired with a glass of prosecco. The paella de mariscos was also a decent choice the seafood tasted fresh and paired nicely with the creamy rice. The menu is well rounded, so there really is something for everyone read more

Great spot - customer service is excellent. The food is solid and it's such a great location. Easy to get to and you can go shop right after. They also have a $29 per person deal which includes tapas, entrees, and dessert. read more

Good happy hour options! We've tried the sangria, croquetas de jamón and pan con tomate. Everything was good. It was a little disappointing that they run out of Spanish beer (Estrella Galicia) and our server was a little slow but everything else was fine! read more

We went to Boqueria Soho to celebrate our dating anniversary. It was super packed at 8:30 on a Friday, so I'm really glad we made a reservation. The ambiance wasn't too fancy but also not too casual. Some people were dressed up, but you could definitely get away with jeans and a cute top. They first sat us at the bar, but there was a prosciutto slicer right in front of us, so we barely had any counter space and felt a little crammed. Our waitress was super sweet and immediately noticed. As soon as a spot opened up at the end of a long table, she moved us, which we really appreciated. They recommend two to three tapas per person, so we ordered five between the two of us. We got the gambas al ajillo, the Caesar salad with anchovies, the patatas bravas, the atún canario, and the pintxos morunos. I usually lean toward seafood, especially crudos, but I wasn't the biggest fan of the fish here. Neither the anchovies nor the tuna tasted particularly fresh. They weren't bad, just not something I'd seek out again. The potatoes and shrimp were both delicious. They were generously portioned and super flavorful. The lamb skewers were the star of the night. They weren't too gamey and were really well balanced and packed with flavor. Overall I'd give the meal a four out of five, mostly because the fish was underwhelming, but everything else was great. read more

Definitely disappointed with the food. I gave 4 stars for the sangria, great service and nice ambiance. Beautiful restaurant. My friends and I opted for the $52/person Chef's Menu "The Classics" option. We were served a bunch of different tapas. Notably was this super bland salad called Ensalada Vasca, it had literally nothing on it except dressing... We were very disappointed with the vegetable paella; the veggies were bland and the couscous was overcooked, some burnt. We all agreed it was more like a veggie fried rice anyone could make at home. We did like the Croquetas de Setas and Pintxos Morunos, those were tasty! Average were the Patatas Bravas, Shishito Peppers and Albondigas. The chocolate sauce for the churros was runny like soup. Staff was accommodating for a shrimp allergy and conscious of cross-contamination, which we appreciated! Our waiter, Franklin, was very attentive and friendly. Our food and drinks kept coming quickly, which we appreciated! I probably wouldn't recommend this restaurant to a friend for an important dinner. For drinks and vibes, it's great. read more

Couldn't take too many pictures because I was too focused on how AMAZING this food was! We got a bunch of tapas for the table so we tried a ton of- blue cheese stuffed dates wrapped in bacon, ham and mushroom croquettes, short rib flatbread, fried potatoes, garlic shrimp, Brussel sprouts and more! I would say my favorites were the garlic shrimp and the dates! The sangria was also delicious. We had a reservation for 5:00 on a Tuesday and by the time we left the place was full. Clearly a popular spot for their food, their service was also very helpful and attentive. Great energy in the place - I loved the decor/setup. read more

Boqueria in SoHo delivered an outstanding brunch experience that easily justified the $29-per-person family-style feast. We went for the full brunch spread, starting with tapas that included tortilla española and datiles con beicon (dates wrapped in bacon), perfectly sweet and savory. For the main brunch course, we had the short rib flatbread, huevos estrellados, and Boqueria bacon, egg, and cheese sandwiches, all cooked and seasoned beautifully. Dessert was churros with Nutella, a classic finish that capped everything off just right. The meal served as our one big meal for the day, and while it was more than enough food, the pacing of the courses was so well done that it never felt overwhelming. The service was superb from start to finish. Both the servers and hostess were attentive and professional, balancing efficiency with genuine warmth. The food leaned a little on the heavy side, but that's part of what makes Boqueria's brunch satisfying, rich, flavorful, and made to linger over. We were full the rest of the day. The vibe was exactly what you'd expect from SoHo on a weekend: a stylish, easy mix of shoppers, locals, and visitors taking a break from the bustle. It felt lively without being rushed, comfortable without trying too hard. I went with my soulmate, and we both agreed this is a spot we'd absolutely return to. Boqueria SoHo is a perfect choice for a date, a meet-up, or any time you want to relax over a well-paced, high-quality brunch in one of Manhattan's best neighborhoods. read more

We walked around the area trying to find somewhere for lunch and ended up here since there weren't too many other options. We decided to get the brunch menu since it seemed like a good way to try a lot of different things (and a great deal at $29 / person), but unfortunately those things were just okay and a lot of it was served cold (not ice cold but like room temperature when it should have been hot). Of all the things we tried, I can honestly say there were no stand outs. Tapas: TORTILLA ESPAÑOLA Traditional Spanish frittata of eggs, confit potatoes, onions CROQUETAS DE SETAS Creamy mushroom croquettes, truffle allioli Brunch: COCA DE SETAS Grilled flatbread, sautéed mushrooms, caramelized onions, black garlic, Caña de Cabra and Mahón cheeses HUEVOS HORNEADOS Two eggs simmered in tomato sauce, chorizo, roasted piquillo peppers, miti crema cheese, salsa verde, with grilled bread HUEVOS ESTRELLADOS Shoestring french fries, truffle potato cream, Jamón Serrano, fried egg Postre: Churros Dulce De Leche The best thing was probably the Huevos Horneados but everything else left something to be desired. Bland and room temperature, it was all just a bit disappointing. I wouldn't say it was BAD, just not great. But the portions were very generous! read more

Of course I'm back! Stopped in for lunch and once again--vibes immaculate. The playlist was hitting, the service was fast, and I had the pleasure of being helped by Jeffery, who was super nice and attentive without hovering. I ordered the Hamburguesa with a side salad and whew--chef's kiss. The burger was so well-seasoned, and I would've never guessed that bacon jam could pair so perfectly, but it absolutely slaps. The side salad wasn't an afterthought either--fresh, crisp, and perfectly tossed with just the right amount of dressing. 10/10 would recommend. Can't wait to come back again (because we all know I will). read more

Went here awhile ago for my friend's last year of the decade partial celebration. This place is so cute and tapas place. We ordered bunch of dishes and drinks to share and it was delicious. Every dish is just simply tasty and the drinks are wonderful. Great service since we're there early. Will comeback for more when we're in the neighborhood for sure. read more

"You know my mother made all this Paella... It's a Spanish dish. It's a mlange of fish, an meat with rice. Very tasty." -George Costanza, Seinfeld da Scene: After a long day walking around Chinatown, Little Italy and Nolita, we head to SOHO for sangria and tapas. Great space, high ceilings, busy, bustling and vibey... da Grub: Hit all the good stuff starting with a pitcher of blanca sangria and plate of hand-carved Jamón Ibérico, decadent... huge difference from Serrano. Pan Con Tomate, artichoke hearts, Gildas & Gambas were pretty standard... but the pickled anchovies, potato tortilla, and Picanha & chimichurri were off the hook good! da Service: Jose was quick and funny, plus he paired a great glass of Cesca Vincent to go with the steak. Check 'em out when in SOHO! read more

2.7 stars Popped in for some drinks and apps. The sangria was good. Their patatas bravas were soo good. I'm a potato lover & those hit the spot. I got their sliders as well. My issue here is that the server didn't ask how I want it cooked and it came pretty rare. I'm not into that so obviously they replaced it with no issue. When it came back it was okay. In addition to that I feel like the waiter was not attentive at all. I also didn't love how close together the tables were. I don't really feel a need to return. The churros were pretty good for dessert though! read more

It was my first time to try their lunch menu and it was not disappointing at all! The lunch menu had a quite a few choices of sandwiches and bowls. I ordered the Bocata De Escalivada and Pintxos Morunos. Both dishes were delicious. The first dish was a sandwich version of their Escalivada (grilled eggplant, peppers, onions, yogurt) plate. I ordered it because I was curious about how this combination was for a sandwich. Surprising it was great: the grilled baguette was crispy and hot. The roasted veggie was chilled so that it was refreshing. The yogurt spread added more flavors to it. I chose salad as my side. The second dish was basically lamb skewers on a piece of sourdough. The lamb was served medium. Very tender. I also liked the salsa on top of it (more like chopped herbs than the Mexican salsa). However, it might be better if they drain some water/fat from the lamb to prevent the bread below to be wet. Service was great as well. My server was enjoyed chatting with diners very much. He also recommended dishes and described how they were cooked to me. Food also came out in reasonable time. Definitely a good place for lunch! read more

We were looking for a late lunch and decided on Boqueria because of there patio! The service is very welcoming and friendly and they do have a happy hour menu! We ended up ordering off the regular menu because we wanted more healthier options but everything is pretty well priced! The glazed carrots were definitely the highlight! My partner who isn't a huge fan of veggies LOVED this dish! I also really enjoyed the tuna tartar- it was nice thick pieces of tuna, clean and fresh! They also have mini martinis- which is always fun! read more

Loved it here!! They had lots of seating, and although it was kind of small, they were able to fit lots of people into the restaurant. The service was amazing and food came out quick since the kitchen is open and various servers were bringing our dishes to the table. The food was pretty good, would recommend the bacon wrapped dates, patatas bravas, calamari, and brussels sprouts! My watermelon sandia was the star, it was super light and refreshing!

The food at Boqueria was good, but unfortunately the service really ruined the experience. Our server was extremely rude and made us feel unwelcome throughout the meal. On top of that, we were overcharged compared to the prices listed on the menu, which was frustrating and felt unfair. I was excited to try this place and the food itself was enjoyable, but the poor service and billing issue left a bad impression. I would be hesitant to come back unless the service improves and menu pricing is honored properly. read more

This was not my first time at Boqueria, but it was my first visit to this location--and what a disappointment. The biggest letdown was the service. Our waiter was quite rude, and although I didn't want to start an argument since this was a special occasion planned in advance, it definitely affected the experience the most. I hate to say it, but it's unlikely I'll be returning to Boqueria. In the past, I enjoyed it so much that I even bought a gift card for a friend, which makes this experience all the more disappointing. read more

A mix up with the reservation where the phone hostess said my party of 2 may have to sit at the counter but probably not. Despite my making a reservation reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where they lost Jerry's car reservation. "You know how to take a reservation but you don't know to 'Hold the reservation.' ". No matter we got a table at 7pm. "La comida está deliciosa. -- The food is delicious." Drinks/wine were regional Spanish based. Thumbs up for very cold prosecco and albarino. Shared a seafood paella, manchego and the 2 ibericos to start. Excellent. Service very good. Smart crowd, date place on a Friday. The chairs and tables were high top encouraging frequent turnover and more seating-not a fan. I noticed another Baby Boom couple had difficulty navigating their table top too. We would come back though. We used to live on West Bway, 1984-1993 where at least Ken's Broome Street Bar (1972) is still around. Hope Boqueria (2008) has a similar run. read more

Traveling from out of town (SF) Tooo a recommendation from a local for a lunch spot to go here and order the bacon wrapped dates. Loved the neighborhood. Everything was extraordinary from the service to the food. We ordered the Brussel sprout salad, the bacon wrapped dates (heard they were amazing), the tuna bowl and we each got our own glass of red sangria. I would have gotten a pitcher but my gf doesn't drink enough. LOL - I do recommend a pitcher for 2+ people. I think he said it's 5 glasses. Liked the sangria but I am not the expert on all things sangria. Brussels sprout salad was great! Loved the cranberries and almonds and nice light dressing. Bacon wrapped dates soft and delicious. Sweet and salty and melt in our mouth. Come with three. We also loved the freshness and clean citrus of the tuna bowl. Was perfect. We even opted for the churros with Nutella dipping sauce cause you know... I needed something sweet at the end. Good. Crispy, maybe 5inch churros. We loved the food and dining experience as a whole. Would definitely recommend. Also has a patio. And plenty of shopping in the area. read more

Had dinner at 9pm on a Saturday. It was packed and very lively. We are in our late 40s and were probably the oldest people there by about 25 years but we didn't feel out of place. Very nice ambiance. We chose Boqueria because we went to Spain in April and really wanted some tapas. We had the following: -Jamón de Bellota: the flavor was perfect but the texture wasn't the best. It was a little dried out and leathery and could have been sliced a little thinner. For the price, it should be much better. -Patatas Bravas: the potatoes weren't as crispy as they should have been. They were a little mushy. The pepper sauce was very tomato-forward and didn't have enough pimentón. Honestly, I'm going to be that person and say that mine are better. -Croquetas de setas: very very good. Wish there were more in the order. -Escalivada: this was delicious. Reminds me of something we had in Granada. -Salmon à la Catalina: the salmon was delicious and well cooked. Choripán: this was so good. And no, don't call it a hot dog. Overall the meal was not bad. The service was fantastic. Sam was attentive, engaging, and friendly. We would go back just for her. read more

Boqueria is located in the heart of Soho and conveniently within walking distance from the Spring St subway station. After window shopping, my family and I decided to try Boqueria. The hostess asked for my number and entered it into their system before seating us at a booth table. The ambiance was perfect for our lunch date. I informed our server about my food allergies. Tapas *sharing is caring* Boquerones con Naranja Tortilla Española Mejillones con Azafrán: The steamed mussels were flavorful. Sadly, I ate all the bread and wished for more to dip into the delicious sherry and saffron sauce. Half Pollo Rustido: The Catalan-style roasted chicken was finger-licking goodness.

Plenty of vegetarian options, comfortable seating and a bustling vibe. What's not to like about this spot? It was loud on a Friday night but with this many people, no surprise. The manager acceded to our request to turn the music down, I appreciated that. Recommended: the Brussels sprout salad, the brave potatoes (patatas bravas), the veg paella. I cannot recommend the cheeses. See and be seen. read more

We had the Seafood Paella as our entrée. For any paella, getting the rice right is one of the key factors and this place definitely did that well. The rice was flavourful and balanced. The seafood was also great - clams, mussels, shrimp, squid and fish. They said the paella takes about 30 - 40 mins to prepare but ours came within 20 mins. The chocolate cheesecake was excellent! Had it with a double espresso. The staff were extremely kind and helpful. A lot of the tables were set up for cafe stool chairs. Lighting was done right - I usually don't like places that are too dark. Overall, a great experience. read more

From beginning to end, our experience was lovely. Delicious selections of tapas, a variety of options and menus to choose from. We dined during Happy Hour on a Saturday. (4pm-6pm) The front of the house staff were verh welcoming, servers were attentive. Ambiance was amazing, dim lighting yet could still read the menus, music was a plus, very chic, vibe was awesome. We asked one of the servers about the music. She said it was an AI program that detects the amount of diners and sets tone of music. (Fewer would play mellow and Vice versa) See attached pics. read more

It's raining cats and dogs here in NYC, so I decided to have some comfy Spanish food at Boqueria Soho (there are several location in NY and in DC). There is a Boqueria in DC and I go there often. The location here in New York is packed, but as usual I sat at the bar and No Problem. A glass of Albariño, some mellow music and great tapas... With octopus. Plus, mushroom croquetas, pinchos morunos, pan en tomat, another Albariño. And a small, seafood paella with socarrat. Great service at the bar!! What else can a human want? read more

I went for Brunch today. I wanted to try the Brunch Feast. It's usually served for more than one person. My guest couldn't make it and they were able to accommodate it for a party of 1. 2 appetizers and 3 bigger plate items. They sized down some items for one person and I still had food left to take home. I had the meatballs, patatas bravas, huevos horneados (favorite!), French toast and the mushroom flatbread and churros. Everything was pretty good. It wasn't amazing but good. And the value was really good. $29 for all of that!? The service was also really good. The people were really kind. I'd recommend it. read more

I'm a huge fan of Boqueria and have even hosted my birthday here last year. Unfortunately, I felt quite miffed from my experience here last night. See below for specifics on each category: Food: White Sangria, Patatas Bravas, bocadito de jamon. So yummy! Always love getting a pitcher and snacks to share with friends. Service: 5 of us walked in at 5 and were sat down and served fast. Unfortunately, it felt like our server was not happy that we only ordered 2 tapas in the beginning and wanted to hurry us out of there. We weren't even done eating and he began taking our plates away and gave us the check before we asked for it. We were going to order another pitcher, but decided not to because it felt as if we were unwelcome. I would understand if the restaurant was busy, but many tables were empty at the time ‍. Ambiance: cute as always! Great place to bring someone who enjoys fun and fancy environments read more
