If you are looking for delicious tapas, Pipa is the place to go. I orgered about 9 different plates with my aunt and not one was a dissapointent. We wished the plates kept coming and coming but our waistbands were tight and of course with tapas, like sushi - you order a bunch of things and then it ads up at the end.
It's a bit loud, service was slow but it was totally worth it i would 100% go back!
Pros: variety, atmosphere, sangria
Cons: small plates add up to one big bill

The mood at Pipa was warm and casual. The variety and the quality of the Tapas menu was very good. The service was good, however it would have been more pleasurable if the servers smiled and had been a little more attentive at the beginning of our meal.
They had live flamenco music and a dancer. They were entertaining but it was difficult to talk when they were performing. However, their short sets allowed diners to pay attention to them for a few minutes and then return to their table conversations. I think if they worked on the acoustics that would have provided a better ambience.
Overall, I enjoyed my meal at Pipa and would recommend it to my friends.

Favorite place for Tapas. Love all the chandeliers in the restaurant, it's always fun picking out which one you wish you had the money to buy. The food is outstanding! Stuffed Piquillos, Calamari (amazing!), scallops, shrimp, patatas la brava, crab croquettes. Calamari by far the best though. Sit long enough and the manager may just buy you a pitcher of sangria to get you to move to the bar. haha
Pros: atmosphere, location, food

I had dinner at Pipa on Sat night for my girlfriend's birthday. There were 6 of us girls and we ordered a bunch a tapas plates. Let me just say that EVERYTHING was scrumptuous. Everything had a robust, unique taste; most things simply were melt-in-your-mouth amazing. If you go, you must try the Veggie flatbread, the calamari (best calamari I've ever had, hands-down), the wild mushrooms, at least one three-cheese plate, and for dessert, the Bomba de Chocolate. You MUST have the sangria as well. It is phenomenal. The best part besides the food? Totally reasonable prices. It came out to about $50 a person for everything, 3 pitchers of sangria included! I've never spent so little on such a fantastic meal.
Another cool thing is that because it's tapas, you can order a bunch of plates, and if you're still hugnry or want to try something else after you've started eating, you can keep ordering and the food keeps coming, in a timely matter no less. The waitstaff was attentive without being obtrussive. The ambience is great. It's dark, beatiful, and cozy. My only other recommendation is to make a reservation and make it a few days in advance if you want a prime time. It was so crowded, I can't imagine getting a seat if you're just walking in off the street.
Pipa is definitely worth your time and energy!
Pros: Amazing, flavorful, inventive food; awesome sangria
Cons: can't think of one!

I love this restaurant for it's fabulous ambiance, delicious food and the sangria, oh the sangria. I eat here 2x per month and work for a very high end luxury fashion company - book lots of reservations here for our "C" levels...they love it too...
Except - I just called to make a reservation and they didn't have anything available so I was trying to talk to the "host" about options and he was soooooo rude - in fact, he hung up on me before I was finished speaking. Guess he's too busy to care about customers since they are so booked up. If the owners or anyone of significance reads this, try to talk to your people about being rude on the phone - you never know who you're speaking to... ; )
Pros: Great food, great ambience...
Cons: Rude employees

With Tapas on my mind i looked for a quick fix to my craving in the Union Square area. A quick search later i found Pipa, a rustic bohemian meets grand ballroom feel with tasty and reasonably priced fare for all. The chandeliers and unfinished ceilings make the feel both comforting but still high end. The staff was attentive and courteous. My favorite was the shrimp tapas. Making an online reservation was totally convenient and the prices were totally reasonable. I impressed my date and felt like a savvy new yorker. Take a chance and check out Pipa.
Pros: ambience, price, food, service

Everything we ordered for dinner was wonderful, and simply, but beautifully presented. The servers was available if we needed them, but they did not overrun our dinner checking on us. The focus of dinner was the food, wine, and my company, not the pomp and decor of the restaurant. I very much appreciate that.
