We also had pan con tomate and a flat bread with grilled veggies and they were just okay--not on the same level as the paella.4/2/2013 12:00:00 AMWonderful service, great food.Wonderful service, great food. It was a friends 25th birthday and they not only brought her a special cocktail for the occasion but then brought desert for the table.

Will definitely be returning.3/30/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat friendly service, wonderfulGreat friendly service, wonderful tapas dishes with some twists and innovative cocktails. Well worth a visit.3/26/2013 12:00:00 AMWest Village Spanish Gem: Go HungrySo good. Convivial atmosphere and highly accommodating staff (asked to move away from large, loud party of six or more; not a problem). Best go early for quiet experience. Third time and food is consistently good, fresh, complex, well-conceived and authentic - with a great wine list and sommelier to boot. My only hint for would-be patrons is always remember to not mix up Greenwich St. and AVENUE and get lost. As I've done every time, as a local.. Good for burning off a few calories, though, in the nicest of neighborhoods. A pleasure.
Particularly enjoyed the Croquetas de Setas y Pollo app (do split, as it's rich), flatbreads, ensalada de remolacha. Next up? Paella night.3/22/2013 12:00:00 AMNew Brunch Spot!Great brunch in a beautifully open space with a comfortable, modern design. Expecting nothing less from the Rayuela/Macondo team, this was great. This was needed on the West side. Pimms w fresh ginger cocktail paired w delicious pancakes and duck confit coca is the way to go! Service comfortable, easy, neighborhoody. Thank you Pablo.3/17/2013 12:00:00 AM
