Spain Restaurant

Spain is one of the best kept secrets in NYC. I have been going for the last 10 years and the food is always delicious. Remember that cash is king here, no credit cards are taken but the prices are more than reasonable. The entrees are large and lots of free tapas at the beginning of the meal which means you are getting big bang for the bucks! Pros: Inexpensive, delicious food more

Yes this restaurant is cash-only, and yes it's not the most chic atmosphere in NYC, BUT the ample food, friendly service and unique ambience make it worth the trip. I had an excellent time there a year ago and again last night. The waitstaff brought us so many free tapas (chilled mussels, spare ribs, chorizo, sauteed shrimp) along with our house salad and bread that we barely had room for the entrees. The wine selection is limited but reasonably priced, relative to other NYC dining experiences. The dining area can get a little noisy but that adds to the Spanish cantina atmosphere. The service was attentive and friendly. The entrees were enormous and very well prepared. I recommend perhaps sharing some of the main course selections if dining with multiple companions. See you soon at Spain! Pros: great service, convenient location, fun atmosphere Cons: , crowded, no reservations more

The restaurants overall feeling is that of a cheap cafeteria. The food is not well presented and insipid. The service is overall unfriendly and rude. The owner asked to walk two blocks to an ATM to retrieve cash. I DO NOT recomend this restaurant. more

I've gone to this place, geez a million times , on dates & with groups. It's a great place the paella & sangria are awesome and I love love love the free tapas. The funniest thing though is how I once tried to describe it to someone new. My first words were ""Okay it may look a little scary...""lol... The ambiance of the place could use some work. It's been around for ages and I think they never changed the decor.(kind of like your grandmother or great grandmothers house. ) Other than that it's a great casual dinning place. Not romantic, or fancy-smancy, if your down to earth and low key you'll enjoy it. Pros: great sangria, great paella, free tapas Cons: can get loud, aged/faded decor, cash only more

Good place for authentic cuisine! I promise you will not leave hungry. They start you off with free mussels vinagerette, spare ribs, sausages, and salad. Once you've warmed up your stomach with all of these free goodies, please do yourself a favor and have some of the best paella ever. The seafood is enormous and fresh and the rice that accompanies it is a nice complement that doesn't overpower the flavors of the seafood. You gotta try it. Pros: Great food, Greta Service, Great Paella Cons: Decor more
