    Tortilla
    INDIA O.

    Went to Tapas de España and the service was excellent. We ordered the gambas al ajillo and the tortilla, both of which were super tasty. We also tried the pulpo a la gallega--it was very tender, but honestly pretty bland, and I ended up adding salt. We topped everything off with tres leches cake, which was absolutely delicious. I will definitely be returning to this place.

    Medio Churrasco a la Parrilla & pollo Al ajillo
    Keita N.

    10/10 will be a new regular at this restaurant. I haven't been inside for 10 years and coming back makes me question why I never returned before! The service first is impeccable. The waiters are nice, attentive, and VERYY helpful. They're always making sure you're well taken care of and content. The food was absolutely amazing. My churrasco was perfectly cooked as requested medium rare. Their sangria is actually to die for, I mean they do NOT hold back on the flavor and kick. One is enough let me tell you! The chicken from what I heard was well seasoned and juicy. Come here for drinks alone and you're set! Tapas all the way around!

    Seated right away on a Friday night, ordered two pitchers of red sangria and 4 tapas: patatas bravas, chicharron de pollo, croquettas de bacalao and garlic shrimp. Excellent food, excellent service, I will definitely be back

    Great place for families to enjoy a meal together, and they can easily accommodate large groups. I loved the complimentary soup they serve at the beginning; such a nice touch. The food is delicious and the seafood is very fresh. Parking in the area can be a bit tricky, so I'd recommend arriving a little early to give yourself time to find a spot.

    Use to come here often years ago, no idea what made me stop but, I'm glad to have rediscovered this gem. The food, the attentiveness of the staff and the quality of the food is amazing.

    Rabbit Stew (Conejo)
    Scott G.

    Lunch here today was really, really good. First off... the staff are great. They come often enough (and not TOO OFTEN) to check and make sure you're good. They're bilingual English/ Español, and the red Sangria kicks ass. Very full bodied and sweet. We had some Filet Mignon tips that had a lot of flavor and came in a somewhat spicy sauce. I had Rabbit Stew... the rabbit meat is a wee bit dry, but the stew was great nonetheless. Very nice atmosphere and good people. Would definitely return.

    One of my favorite spots for a sit at the bar with a good whiskey drink and churrasco.... My favorite date of all times to myself

    Cheese and meat plate, garlic shrimp, chorizo with onions
    Hiromi T.

    The paella was hands down the main act of my dining experience here! Loved the vibe with all the customers who seem to come very frequently and appreciating good food (which is obviously a good sign). Other than the paella, we tried a bunch of other tapas such as their shrimp with garlic sauce, chorizo with sauteed onions and meat and cheese board to pair well with our red sangria. Overall, experience was amazing and i highly recommend this place if you're in the mood for some tapas and DELICIOUS PAELLA!

    Food was delicious. This restaurant never disappoints. The tapas for two is a must order. The desserts and cappuccino were amazing. We come here regularly. Very nice staff and excellent service.

    Red sangria
    Katie N.

    Great red sangria! Get a pitcher to share with your group. Inside is a little cramped. Service is very friendly.

    Mushroom stuffed with crabmeat
    Stella P.

    Relatively large portions for tapas style, friendly staff, a lively restaurant, and delicious sangria and food!

    Pulpo a la gallega
    Kelly P.

    Never disappoints! I have been to Tapas 4-5 times now more or less, and I always leave content with the food and experience/ambience. Live flamenco on Friday nights and my favorite appetizer, the pulpo a la gallega which is always 10/10! Each meal I have tried has always been very tasteful and delicious! My friend knows the owner, and as much as I want to say that's why we had great service, I can't because I saw the owner and waiters talking and connecting with every table; very attentive!

    My cousin (god we love her) lives in the building next door so for the past 2 years Haven has been…read moreher haunt. Now I have a thing when people say "it's just next door" or "it's right down the street." What did George Dubya say? Fool me once and it's shame on you, fool me twice and the shame is mine for getting us into a war based on lies and greed?" Yeah something like that. Anyways, I typically don't believe when people say something is close so whenever I visit her we just order in delivery rather than motivate (ie put on a bra) and go out. But dang it this is literally. Right. Next. Door. As in I can sit on the deck outside of the restaurant and look in her living room. Smh. I say all that to say IVE BEEN MISSING OUT!! Her bday was this weekend so she booked a large table for family and friends. I was relieved to see they had valet. Parking is atrocious in this development so to only pay $10 to be 10 feet from the door was awesome. The restaurant itself is beautiful and the staff know her well and treated her as a valued guest. Here's the rundown: We went for BRUNCH. They have a prix fixe for $41 of most of the brunch items and it includes 2 Bellini, 2 mimosas, or 2 Bloody Marys. Good right? Welp what you don't know is that their cocktail menu is incredible so to heck with the prix fixe. We got mimosas at home!! Between the 10 of us we got cocktails, appetizers, entrees, desserts, coffee. Highlights: -Service was spectacular. Wesley was On It! By the time we finished eating there was another party of 10+ seated right behind us that he was servicing. I hope he enjoys the reward$ of his hard work! Make it rain on em Wesley! -Fat friendly seating. No arms, solid chairs, comfortable cushions. We were there for 4 hours and my booty was never sore. -Food. We tore it up and it was all delicious. My half of the table had the farm house breakfast sando, the fried chicken sando, French omelette, huevo rancheros. We shared the crab hush puppies, wings, calamari, goat cheese salad, and blueberry pancakes. I was nosey and saw that some of my other table mates ordered the skirt steak and eggs and the short rib. -Drinks. I know my husband loves mango so I suggested he get the smoked mango drink. I didn't know it came with theatrics. Dinner and a show?! Btw by the time our table was done almost everyone had ordered one. Lychee martini, Paloma, old fashioned, midnight espresso. Also all very good! -The View. Our party was too large to sit outside but we did sit right at the floor to ceiling windows. In between birthday wishes and food comas we watched the boats, jet skis, and undulating waves of the Hudson. Previous posters are correct - the place is pricey. But high key the people who live in that area are already paying a premium for everything else sooooo. Now, I DONT live in that area lmao so this will be a rarer treat for me. But I was happy to celebrate my cousin's birthday in a place that she loves. Awesome experience - I look forward to returning! 10/10 would put on a bra for this and walk downstairs lol

The menu may be the same, but the food is not. Every dish we ordered lacked the quality and consistency that made this restaurant stand out. The flavors were flat, the seasoning was inconsistent, several dishes arrived lukewarm, and the presentation looked rushed. Nothing had the attention to detail or care that I remembered. It genuinely feels like the kitchen is being run differently. While the menu hasn't changed, the execution certainly has. The recipes may be the same on paper, but the food tastes completely different. The balance of flavors, the quality of the ingredients, and the consistency that once made this place special just aren't there anymore. You can tell the person leading the kitchen is no longer the same because the food no longer reflects the standards this restaurant used to be known for. For the prices they're charging, I expected so much better. Instead, I left disappointed and wondering what happened to a restaurant I used to recommend to everyone. Unfortunately, this visit convinced me not to come back. I sincerely hope they can get back to the level of quality they once had, but until then, I'll be taking my business elsewhere.

Honestly, every single dish was delicious. The dakgalbi was spicy in the best way with that cheesy finish, the bossam was tender and satisfying, and the grilled mackerel and calamari were both cooked perfectly.

I had never had steamed skate anywhere before so my acquaintance told me that I wouldn't like it because it's "pungent" but I'm so glad I got to try it because I LOVED IT. So savory, flavorful, and packed with umami. Another good thing is their extensive menu. I can't wait to come back to try the rest of their dishes. The interior decor is very nice as well. The high ceilings and black color theme give it an elevated feel. And the staff is very nice and accommodating CONS: their air conditioning was broken when we went in the middle of summer (which I'm sure they'll eventually fix). I didn't mind because I love the heat but my acquaintance was sweating uncomfortably. Also, the food was good and some dishes were great but I wouldn't say it's the "best I ever had." The grilled beltfish was very plain (and bland) until I squeezed lemon juice all over it. It's the type of place that has endless comfort food and is your regular go-to spot (or go to order in) when you feel too lazy or tired to cook (or hungover) rather than a special occasion spot This place is decent and reliable. And everyone needs one of those in their back pocket to lean on.
