Returned to Txikito one year after our first visit. Fabulous experience. We had reservations at the bar and began with a sherry suggested by the bartender. We ordered two dishes. -Morros, beef cheek and jowl. I tasted sherry vinegar sweetened with sugar and mustard. Parsley leaves and softly pickled onion and fennel. Best thing ever. -Alcachofa Y Jamón, fried artichokes, melted leeks, poached egg, jamón ibérico. Second best thing ever. Friendly, knowledgeable employees. Great experience. Go there! read more

Extremely disappointing dining experience. Absolute shit hospitality. I like this restaurant, have come here multiple times over the years whenever I am visiting NYC from the west coast. We arrive at 9:15, as reserved, and the bearded stocky guy who greets and seats us begins with "you have to order in 15 minutes. I sent you a text." I say, "really, you sent a text?" I check my phone - he did indeed send a text as it turns out: at 8:57, 18 minutes before our reservation. Ok, annoying but whatever, so we order and he says "fine, you just need to order, no need to rush." Then, around 10pm, while there are at least other 3 parties still in the restaurant and still eating and drinking, I ask for a glass of wine and he says "don't you know the bar is closed?" I ask, "how would I know that?" He accuses me of being aggressive and rude and then belligerently pours me a glass of wine, like he's doing me a fuc**ng favor. We are holding nobody up, ordered quickly, and having quiet dinner for two. Oh, and their website says "bar open to 11 pm everyday", a full hour from now. What a douchebag and what an absolutely unpleasant dining experience. A hostile, charmless prick - I regret I chose to have one of my dinners here and I'm surprised that whoever employs this guy wants him as the face of hospitality with his surly, unpleasant nastiness. Gee, I'm sorry for making a dinner reservation at 9:15 and spending $150 bucks at your place and asking for glass of wine - how rude of me! Amazing that this is the service being offered no matter what, but maybe even more so after just being included again in Pete Wells' Times' list of 100 best restaurants. Seriously hope this guy is fired - he's in the wrong field and hurting this otherwise and historically great establishment. read more

Came here following NY Times top 100 restaurants list and really enjoy every dishes we had. As it's tapas style, it was perfect for 4-5 people to share lots of different dishes. The local squid dish was very special, looks like pasta and had very tender texture. Every dish we had was delicious! Our waitress was great at explaining the menu as well, we look forward to coming back again read more

Txikito in Chelsea is a basque-region Spanish restaurant serving basque cuisine along with familiar highlights from the rest of Spain. For dinner we had crispy cod kroketas, patatak reminiscent of patatas bravas, olives and hot jilda with smoked Japanese sausage. For mains we had thinly sliced pulpo, double pil pil (olive oil poached cod), mentreska (sword fish belly), arroz meloso with shrimp, and our favorite dish, the heartachingly crispy cochinillo (roasted suckling pig). Dessert was a creamy flan batido to end the night. This is one of our favorite and most authentic Spanish restaurants in NYC. We strongly recommend it and look forward to coming back read more

There's a reason Basque Country has the most concentration of Michelin stars in Europe and it's because it's blessed with incredibly lush mountains and a splendid seaside. It's hard to find any semblance of that in NY and I was surprised to encounter this place. I had to try and I was so pleasantly delighted. Most people will complain about the portions to the prices, which I get. However I do think that this cuisine and the quality of the food especially the seafood is really hard to find. My favorite would be the percebes -- I delight in oyster and grew up eating razor clams and this was in fact a great combo. I also really delighted in the pasta looking squid dish. What a surprise. read more

Not enough people are talking about Txikito! After seeing that they serve Basque style food, I knew I had to come try after falling in love with the food in San Sebastián, Spain. My mom and I ordered five dishes for the two of us, which we found to be the perfect amount. We started out with the blistered seasonal peppers which came with lots of flaky salt which I love. Then we had the octopus carpaccio which was so tender and delicate. We moved onto the warm dishes next and our first was fried artichokes with a poached egg, iberico ham, and a leek purée. The leek purée mixed with the runny yolk and salty ham was absolutely perfect. After we had the local squid with sweet onion and pine nut and this was such a surprising dish. The squid was cut almost like pasta and came with a really rich sauce. Our last dish was one of the specials which was wagyu short rib with peppers and anchovy butter. It had such a nice smoky flavor and the steak was perfectly cooked. The only negative is that my mom and I were waiting for awhile for a server (none had come to us even though tables seated after us had been attended to). Otherwise, I highly recommend checking out Txikito. read more

Short review: Pricey but tasty Basque spot. A bit loud. Good vermouth cocktail. Recommending the Láminas de Setas/King Oyster Mushroom Carpaccio heavily. They loved the octopus/pulpo also. Cochinillo/Roasted Suckling Pig is probably the most substantial dish but I preferred the Arroz Meloso/Bomba Rice with Seafood. I was here with several others perhaps a month ago or so to this nice Basque restaurant. As this place is known for tapas (or really pinchos/pintxos as it's Basque,) another person and I know decided to share some of the larger dishes from the specials board with her and we ordering separate appetizers. The place was a bit loud as it was very crowded but I was fine. The staff here was friendly and knowledgeable knowing what dishes contained certain allergens and also gave recommendations. I started with a cocktail which I cannot remember the name of but I think it was either $16 or $18 and it was the first one or second one listed on the menu from the vermouth section. It was white vermouth based and it contained an olive which was unique and it had a nice mix of bitterness and sweetness and I would recommend it for those who prefer a more bitter cocktail. I started with what was eventually my favorite dish of the night, the Láminas de Setas or King Oyster Mushroom Carpaccio. This consisted of said mushrooms along with Marcona almonds, tomato and Idiazabal cheese. This had a wonderful earthiness with the sliced almonds adding a good crunch. The cheese had a good saltiness. Apparently this dish used to be on the specials menu and I can see why they added it. The other person had the Pulpo/Octopus Carpaccio with citrus and piment d'espelette (or Espelette pepper) and that was $21. They liked it a lot commenting on it having a good texture and it was also well presented. The dishes came with thin sliced bread. Another person got the Jamón con Melon with Cinco Jotas paleta, melon de sapo (or Christmas melon,) and chicatana-espelette salt for $26 which they liked. From the specials, we went with the Cochinillo or Crispy Suckling Pig and the Arroz Meloso or Buttery Bomba Rice. The former was $38 and said large piece of pork was on top of a small amount of tximitxurri (or chimichurri) and there was a simple frisée on the side. The pork was rich and flavorful while the chimichurri was definitely a lot milder then versions I've had in some Argentine places being a little bit less garlicky for instance which left it a bit too rich. There also wasn't enough of it being very lightly put on the plate. This was combined with the fact that the salad wasn't strong enough to balance as there was no dressing. I preferred the rice (for $31) which was served like a risotto. Said dish had uni, matsutake mushrooms, wild shrimp, and tomato. The rice had a wonderful texture with a pronounced seafood and tomato flavor. There was an occasional fun texture from the shrimp and mushroom with the only real complaint seeing that it was a little too salty and the delicate uni was a little bit overpowered. The food here was solid though pricey with very good flavors and spices. The presentation of the dishes are also wonderful and I think you partially pay for that (also likely from the Spanish imports.) Particularly good smaller plates but the mains weren't too shabby either. Low 4. read more

I strongly recommend this restaurant! The food, service, and ambiance were all impeccable. For tapas, the sizes were reasonable--and more importantly, each dish was well thought out and contained traditional aspects of the Basque region with novel takes. I will be returning very soon! read more

While the staff seemed a bit overwhelemed at times, the food was excellent but for me the best part was the lack of noise. The spacing of the tables, the volume of the music and the elevated conduct of the clientele was a stand out. Sadly, noise levels now figure heavily into my rating of a restaurant. Now shouting needed to have a conversation here. Txikito should hold a master class on noise abatement for other eateries. Food stand outs: the squid ink custard, roast sucking pig and arroz meldoso were sensational. read more

We ordered a bunch of different dishes to share between 2 people for dinner. We had the sausage, peppers, octopus cappacio, shrimp with veggies cooked with miso, and the rice with bunch of seafoods (like a risotto).. overall the food was tasty and with good presentation.. however, we think the sausage was a bit pricey ($9 for 2 tinny skews with only 2 tinny piece of sausages...).. The overall bill came to be $110.. I think most of the food here have tinny portion.. it is kinda expensive for the price they are charging for this tinny plate of food.. you should definitely get some snacks before or after eating here.. it's not bad but definitely not a everyday dinning spot for us read more

Great Dish On a Magical Evening: Beneath the amber glow of a magical chilly winter evening, this oyster mushroom dish felt like poetry on a plate, cared by a chef's love, turning it into a symphony of flavors. Each bite was a silken interplay between tender and toothsome, imbued with an umami taste that melted on the palate; elevating the essence with an almost ethereal touch. This dish felt less like a food and more like an art. I'll recommend this to anyone who believes we 'live to eat' and not eat to live. read more

Txikito - Best Oyster Mushroom Dish Ever! - Basque Near Me - New York, New York

Journey through the Basque region with this spot. You will not be disappointed and can't miss with this menu. I'd recommend going as a group to try as much as possible. The wine selection was extensive, affordable, and exceptional quality specializing in Iberian wines. I had the cava which was great. We ordered a bunch of snacks and starters including the anchovies (boquerones) and kroketas both of which were delicious. The highlight of the evening was the special: a suckling pig that melted off the bone! I will def go back. Can also recommend the squid ribbons. The service was great. They seated us even without a reservation despite being busy and the server (Calvin) was really helpful getting us situated with the menu. read more

Txikito has been a mainstay in our repertoire over the past several years. A good, soothing meal when you most need it, a place that you never need to doubt or second-guess. In a city filled with a s "corporate" flavored fine-dinning (ahem, the entire Carbone-iverse of Resy waitlists and ) - Txikito feels like a place true to itself. It's not perfect - the service quality seems to ebb and flow like a violent tide. But it is indeed great. Maybe that's the lesson: Txikito doesn't let perfect be the enemy of very very good. read more

I have eaten here twice in the last month and both times have been great. The staff is extremely happy and friendly which makes the whole experience so enjoyable and reflects well on the culture and working conditions there. Restaurant is clean and the decor is modern, warm, and inviting, a great place to come on a date or with friends. The food is excellent, featuring a creative blend of flavors in every dish. Try the beef cheek as one of the mains; it's tender and flavorful. For dessert, I recommend the chocolate soufflé with kumquat peel at the bottom. read more

Being a Spaniard I always have high expectations if I try a Spanish restaurant. This one I have to say that surpassed my expectations and it's the second time I visit. I highly recommend the Arroz meloso, which is similar to a risotto dish with sea urchin, prawns and enoki mushrooms. Delicious! I also LOVED the octopus carpaccio, and can't forget the amber Jack which was VERY good specially dipping the sauce with bread, the pikillos peppers which are a variation of red peppers, the artichokes with jamón, krotetas are so typical and YUMMY, the boquerones are a type of sardine macerated in vinegar (super Spanish too) , and the rodaballo which is a Mediterranean turbot, my favorite fish. They are all small size dishes "tapas" so you can order some of them. I tried 3 desserts and my FAVORITE was the "Ruso" which reminded me of a Swiss dessert called meringue with Gruyère crème, but it was meringue with cultured cream. BOMB!!!! Soooo GOOD! Service was great as well. The only thing I didn't think it made much sense was to use basque language in the menu. It was even hard for me to know what some of the dishes were and I'm Spanish. So I'm sure it's even harder for anyone who comes. PS: I was also surprised that they had barnacles which are a DELICATESSEN in Spain and tough to harvest... I ate them but I'm not sure if people in New York would appreciate them since for them barnacles are not edible here. read more

Party of 5 on a saturday evening. No host/hostess.l, frankly the place looked a bit tired. No one was smiling, everyone looked exhausted. The bar was empty. The menu was difficult to navigate. And when we did pick things, everything we got was either doused in oil or salt, some dishes had a lot of both. The prices weren't that bad, but i still wouldn't go back. I hate to focus on one thing, but the bartender was a dude in a loose red t shirt. Not even an ironic phrase. But that sort of sums up the place. My txikitotini was pretty bad. While ordering, i quietly asked the waitress to put it in a manly glass. When she brings it back, she serves it like she is announcing it to the table. Whatevs not a big deal, it was a joke anyways. What a drab. read more

Portions are tiny. $11 appetizer is 2 tiny skewers with pickles, literally one bite per skewer. $38 suckling pig is not enough of dry meat for even one person. Even wine pours are laughable, half of what you'd get in another restaurant. Be prepared to spend a minimum of $100 per person and then still leave hungry. The artichoke special had some very tough, almost impossible to chew through parts. Dessert selection was not great. We finally settled on cheesecake and didn't finish it. Other than dessert, there are virtually no carbs anywhere in the menu - we did get 5 tiny bread petals with one dish, but it wasn't nearly enough. Our server was wonderful. The ambiance was nice, loud, and lively. The wait to sit outside was more than an hour on a nice Saturday night. read more

I really wanted to like this place. Waiters were super nice but 4 out of the 5 dishes were super salty. My tongue went numb. Others were complaining too . The octopus was the only thing but even this compared to other places was on the well seasoned side. Even the tomato salad. So sad read more

I had recently traveled to Spain and was really missing Spanish food, so I picked Txikito to have dinner with some friends. I had the Casco Viejo cocktail (strong!) and we all shared a pitcher of white sangria that was really good (sweet, but not too sweet). The complimentary cod was amazing and might have been my favorite part of the meal. It was simple, but so delicious. Could have eaten it all day. We ordered a bunch of items off the menu and shared everything, including cod croquettes, foie micuit (foie gras terrine), patatas mentaiko (fries with spicy cod roe mayo), arraultza (chorizo, quail egg on top), octopus, squid ribbons, txarripatak (beef tripe, chickpeas, beef tendon, pig ear), and a rice special of the day. All of the dishes were great, but notable items were the foie gras terrine (so tasty and creamy), octopus (super fresh), and the fries (crispy, great mayo, and also because I just love fries). We enjoyed everything and my Spanish food craving was definitely satisfied! Of course, this made me miss Spain even more, but at least I know I can always come back to Txikito for amazing Spanish food.

Wow! Five years have gone by since I first wrote about Txikito. It's a fiesta every night of the week now, especially since they upgraded the decor and added festive outdoor seating. It's a fun vibe, but LOUD - we sat indoors, and the booming voices of the men sitting behind us ricocheted off the walls and made it hard to have a conversation. We have popped in a few times for drinks, and have been very pleased with the warm service. This is the first time we've stayed for dinner since the pandemic. I ordered carefully, remembering the hits and misses of our previous experience. Croquetas, shishito peppers and patatas bravas are all safe bets. The pork with crackling skin, a special, was fun to eat, although the pool of great sauce it was served in could have been tastier. The surprise hit of the night was the smoked swordfish - so good! My husband said, "I could eat this every night of the week," and I agreed. Wish the portion had been just a little larger for the price. All in all, we are so happy Txikito is a fixture in the neighborhood. read more

Very good Spanish restaurant, went with friends and enjoyed the evening! Everything was delicious and the service nice.

If I could give half stars, it would be 3.5. The atmosphere is nice with a neat shelf by the wall tables to give extra space to the narrow tables. The servers were polite and attentive. While I realize tapas are small bites, these were smaller than we expected given the price. The photos on Yelp also were misleading! I thought the chorizo hash sandwich bites would be at least two bites based on the pics, but it was actually smaller than a forkful. The best dish was a seasonal asparagus special with a good runny yolk. It was all nice quality food but perhaps more for a special occasion than a weeknight happy hour. read more

This is a review of the even by Tasting Collective that we attended. It was a 10 course Traditional Basque Feast. This restaurant is owned and operated by husband and wife chef team. They have a few other restaurants in NYC. I always enjoy Basque style food, Spanish cuisine and tapas, so I was excited for this event. The interior is heavy with wood, making it cozy and warm atmosphere that is so inviting. They have two rooms, one with a bar and small amount of seating, and another room with many more table seating. We were pretty crammed in the second room, barely fitting the table, sitting over the edge... And since there were no space to put everyone's coats and bags, the seating was really, REALLY tight. At this event, we got to try Marijuli, Croqueta de Bakalo, Pimientos de Gernika, Mondatio Tutera, Pulpo de Roca, Gulas del Monte, Bakalo Andra Mari, Pochas, Cochinillo, and Txakoli Poached Pear. Even though this was a tasting event, the amount of food we received was very small. They were all tasty, high quality, and some dishes were even creative and very interesting. I wish if we had a bit more portion so that we could fully appreciate the flavor of each dish. The best thing fro the 10 course was Pulpo de Roca and the dessert. We had a nice dinner here. Each dish was very tasty and high quality. I liked the uniqueness of the dishes and creativity that came with it. It was not as comfortable, as we were over the edge of the table, and the portion received was small...but we were still happy to attend this event. Chef Alex was great, provided us with loads of interesting information and very personable. read more

great basque place. everything was drowning in aromatic olive oil, fresh ingredients, and a very interesting take on the gilda inspired by, so they say, a chicago hot dog. the beef cheek tasted like it was braised in A1 steak sauce, in the best way possible. was surprisingly crispy on the outside. unfortunately, the basque cheesecake was not gluten free which is, as i understand, not how la viña makes it. read more

3.5/5, rounded down because of the not-great value. Food ranged from so-so to pretty tasty, but wouldn't necessarily recommend or return. We ordered several tapas to share, including three pintxos (foie gras terrine, sofrito topped with quail egg, and deviled crab), octopus carpaccio, the ham and shrimp "gnocchi", and the seared beef cheek. The three orders of pintxos (small slice of bread topped with various items) only came with two bites each, so if you're dining out with a larger group, the cost of these add up quite quickly (each ranged from $8-10). My favorite of the three was the foie gras terrine (although it's hard to mess up foie). The seared beef cheek was also very tasty and tender - this one actually came as a generous portion size. My least favorite dish of the night was the octopus carpaccio. The octopus was sliced so thinly, that it barely had any texture or existence in one's mouth, and they overdid it on the olive oil. We also got one of the cakes to share for dessert, but it tasted like something that had been sitting in a fridge for a while. read more

I ate here a few weeks ago. Party of 4, spending almost $1,000 for dinner. As we were finishing our meal and had just ordered another round of drinks, I was informed that our time was up and that we had to leave. No time for dessert I guess. We all agreed that if we were going to pay that much for dinner, it would never again be at a restaurant that 'timed' us. Needless to say, will never return. Ridiculous. read more

This was probably one of the best tapas meals I've ever had. It helped that I went with a local who guided me. They helped pick a Spanish wine to compliment what we ordered and we loved it. There was also a bit size treat from the chef while we waited for our dishes to arrive. We started with the artichoke, (tutera), then the white beans (pochas), octopus carpaccio (pulpo), squid ribbons (txipiron encebollado). She said there were only 2 orders of suckling pig left so we got that too. OMG everything was outstanding. I'll dream of those white beans flavored with mussels. The squid ribbons melted in my mouth. Loved the pulpo. The suckling pig was juicy and delicious. We had a 9:15pm reservation but showed up late. They accommodated is graciously. Later in the evening amid this gastronomical feast, they asked us for our dessert choice because the kitchen was closing. We ordered but they brought out later at the appropriate time. It was a cake and ice cream and delicious! I highly recommend this place! read more

4.5 out of 5, rounded up My review is high partly because my Bill was 50% off by using the TimeOut box offer I purchased. Wonderful small tapas and meats at this cute location in Chelsea. We had the octopus carpaccio, and croquette to start. The octopus carpaccio ($18) is a good size and delicious. The croquette only come as two super small croquette; very good but kind of pathetic of a plate to bring out. For entree we tried the suckling pig, the lamb shank, and the sausage. My favorite was certainly the suckling pig, perfectly cooked, and coming off the bones very smoothly, and came with a delicious chimichurri sauce. The lamb shank was also really good and came surrounded by a tasty and spicy sauce, with beans. The sausage was a good portion and came with two different kinds: a blood sausage and another type of sausage. Finally for dessert, we decided to try the chocolate flan and the Napoleon. Both are $9 and pretty fair sizes. Both really good, in particular the chocolate dessert. Overall nice experience, cute location and good service. The prices are high because without drinking, we would have spent around $70 per person without our discount. read more

Food is good... but what they call "snacks" (their version of appetizers) are extremely tiny. I ordered 2 plates, which had 2 tiny skewers on each plate. I ordered a cocktail but it was only 50% filled with lots of ice cubes. I thought that was hilarious and odd.... The dish with artichoke had really fibrous parts where I could not chew through the whole piece.. had to eventually swallow since I didn't wanna spit it out on the table. read more

Pricey patio place posits perfect seafood (squid) spaghetti-style stuff. There are four tiny tables on the street. Not even a patio. You end up right on the sidewalk. Certainly this must be some concession to the restaurant from the city, but they are not either able or willing to go the extra step to make it feel like a "Terrace." Fortunately this seems to be a pretty low-key, family area and not too many questionable folks on the street to harass one during a meal. It was a bit disorganized when we arrived. We stood inside for quite a while, at least five minutes, before someone came up to seat us. We had made a reservation on open table. It was not necessary as early as we came on a Friday night. Even by 7:30 PM it was not fully booked. We were extremely hungry and immediately ordered the spicy fries and croquettes. My dining companion ordered a glass of white wine. Our server was extremely kind, amenable, and thoroughly explained everything. She was delightful as were all the expediters who brought the food out. As soon as our first dish arrive, the crow cats, we could see why the reviews for this restaurant or so low. To say that are serving was tiny would be an understatement. Which would be fine if the price wasn't mighty. The crow cats were not even the size of my little finger. Two of them for seven dollars was a bit shocking. This is not a fancy high-end restaurant in a fancy high-end neighborhood. The sticker shock continued with the tiny serving of wine in an IKEA water glass. It was probably 4 to 5 ounces of wine for $11. Wow! I realize we are in New York but still. We, nevertheless, ordered some more tapas style food to share. There was a special dish of fried cauliflower, accentuated with a soft boiled egg and mushrooms. This was absolutely delicious. The other stand out to, one for which I will either order through Postmates or return for, was the often mentioned squid ribbons. They are just phenomenal. The rest of the meal, including the small slices of bread that were served at no charge, was quite average. I failed to mention the amuse-bouche which was brought to us prior to our meal. It was a quite delicious mussel with a dollop of tart and tasty tomato sauce on top. The phenomenal flavor and petite size foreshadowed the rest of the meal. We had a total of two glasses of wine and for shared plates. Three of those plates were vegetarian. The bill came to $90 and we were still not totally full. We stopped on the way home for ice cream which, at six dollars, seemed like a bargain after the meal we just had. Was this a tasty restaurant? Yes! Were the prices extraordinarily high? Yes!! I wonder if there is someway for them to mitigate the high prices and not reduce the quality of their excellent food. I hate to give a three star review when food is extremely tasty and service is quite phenomenal, but the pricing was just so shocking for the value. Definitely come and try the squid ribbons! read more

Excellent across the board. Food was great. Service was great. Would highly recommend and will def go back

The internal concept of this restaurant is very beautiful. The walls separating the two sections of the restaurant make it seem bigger. And then in the section with the bar, some tables have a little shelf attached to the wall providing more space for food and drinks. On the topic of drinks, they have a great selection of cocktails. I had the Juantxo. It had a sweet tart taste. I enjoyed it very much. It is important to note that this is a tapas restaurant and everything on the menu is to share. That being said, the prices are pretty high for a dish that isn't meant to fill you. I had the octopus, stuffed peppers, the rice with the shrimp and the avocado squash. Everything was really good but the best one was the octopus. It doesn't come out with tentacles, it's more slivers of octopus. Service was fantastic. Our waitress was very attentive. read more
