   The food was outstanding. We had the mushroom croquettes, shrimp with garlic comfit, short ribs tapas and brussels sprouts and in each case the food and sauce were perfect, requiring more bread to dunk in the sauces. Our server was attentive and very friendly. This was our first time here and we look forward to coming back.

   We went for dinner on a Saturday night. If you are looking for a date night, this is NOT the place, we couldn’t talk to each other, had to point to things on the menu to agree on what we would be ordering, the level of noise was beyond ridiculous. There was absolutely no space between tables, we were sitting on top of each others tables, the waiters had no room to serve without inconveniencing someone else. I had people knocking me over all night as they were going back and forth to the restroom. If you still can live with that, the sangria was decent. We had tapas, the albóndigas were ok, the bread was just low quality, the scallops were well cooked, but the accompanying sauce was extremely vinegary/sour it didn’t compliment the scallops at all. The vegetables were small and covered with sauces that would hid the flavors of the vegetables. Chicharrón were good, the baby lamb chops were too fatty. Overall, we couldn’t wait to finish eating to leave the place, didn’t even finish all food, ran out of there quickly just to hear one’s thoughts!

   Bazar Tapas Bar and RestaurantResponded on January 16, 2023Thank you for coming by. Sorry for your experience. I'm going to investigate what happened. We are actually well known as a nice date spot and our food reviews are consistently good. So I take your post very seriously. Please feel free to get a hold of us so we can make it up to you. Thank you.

   Two of us shared a combination of four starters and tapas and the brunch paella. Everything was very tasty if not exceptional. Service was prompt and friendly. I would definitely return.

    The jumbo crab cake at $25 was so small and the crab was off. When we spoke to owner who was our waiter he only said he would let the kitchen know Waited a looonnnngggg time to get our food although they were not busy. Wouldn’t repeat this dining experience.

    Bazar Tapas Bar and RestaurantResponded on January 1, 2023Thank you for coming by. Our crab cakes, like all our items are house made and preparation starts early in the morning. We source the finest and freshest ingredients, the prices reflect this. Some dishes take longer than others, our famouse Paella is up to 40 Minutes, Chicken we cook from raw so it will take up to 25 minutes. You didn't complain about the quality of the food to me, the executive chef and I both will troubleshoot it. Please come back and we'll do our best by you.

    Mandatory gratuity of 20% I don’t expect to ask for water refill or dishes to be removed from the table.

    Bazar Tapas Bar and RestaurantResponded on December 26, 2022Thank you for giving us 5 stars on the food, and dining with us. I'll work with the staff on the service, though it was an extra busy holiday event with short staff due to the flu and holidays. The 20% is standard for events like this. We avoid the normal prix fix menu with it's higher prices and gratuity to give our customers more choice in both food and pricing. Thanks again and I hope you come back.

    Food was overpriced at $165 for Paella when the lobster was cold and no butter was served. The drinks were good and the waitress was friendly, but then to automatically add 20% tip and an additional credit card fee was ridiculous. Over $300 for cold Lobster, you can definitely find better restaurants in Manhattan.

    Bazar Tapas Bar and RestaurantResponded on December 25, 2022Thank you for coming last night. Our special Holidy Menu, a Lobster Tail Caviar paella: Generous portion for 2 to 3 people, great value. Credit Card fees keep increasing, we like many restaurants and retailers decided to keep our prices the same for Cash customers and are only passing on your banks merchant fee. The automatic gratuity is normal during special days and events. Our servers deserve it, so others can enjoy their time while our servers work and sacrifice their own family time.

    Great atmosphere and great service. The steamed mussels and the grilled octopus were both plentiful portions and amazingly delicious! The tuna appetizer was amazing, although smaller than the others. The pork belly was a bit dry and paled in comparison to the others. Definitely going back?

    The paella was very good to excellent and more than enough for 2 people although very expensive at $76. Still not sure if it was worth it. On the other hand, the sangria was one of the worst I (we) have tried in a Spanish restaurant and definitely not worth the price of $70 for a pitcher which I think is excessively expensive even for NYC. Next time I'm in town would try a different Spanish restaurant for sure.

    Bazar Tapas Bar and RestaurantResponded on December 25, 2022Thank you for joining us. Consider it feeds two (2) people with generous portions for both, we feel it's one of the best values in NYC. We source the best ingredients, and our kitchen staff starts prepping early in the morning for the dinner service. Our Paella is magnificent with Scallops, Shrimp, Monkfish, Squid, Octupus, imported spanish chorzo with a delicious lobster broth.

    A friend and I had a Wednesday reservation at 6:30. The front desk service was a bit disinterested, and it took us a while to get seated, but everything was smooth from there - our main server was incredibly helpful and accommodating about our time needs relative to a Broadway show that evening. We ordered the paella for two, and it was delightful. Almost all of the seafood was perfect, and the portion was easily enough for four people.

    I was very thankful the staff accomodated my group of 6 for seating more than an hour before our original reservation. However, it did mean we sat closest to the kitchen. Everyone enjoyed their food which included the mussels, short rib, lobster mac & cheese, lamb chops, scallops, octopus, spanish olives and truffle fries. I will say I expected the short rib to be more tender. Mines was rather tough and had to be cut/shredded with a knife. The carrots that accompanied it were lacking in flavor, as most of mines were charred. The chocolate mousse was a wonderful surprise but I simply had to inquire several times for staff to sing Happy Birthday to my girlfriend. All in all, the group as a whole enjoy this experience.

    First time here last night, 3 of us ordered 7 small plates to share and it was a perfect amount of food. Everything was delicious, the seared tuna was a standout, the fennel salad that came with the crab cake was delightful, and the cauliflower dish was a surprising favorite among all of us. DJ started around 9 which of course increased the noise level but not to an unbearable level. Service was great. Will definitely be back!

    I have been here twice and sat outside both times. Tonight in October there were heaters which made it quite comfortable. The service was excellent and staff could not have been nicer. Delicious food. Carafes of wine are a good bargain. I loved the floral decor and ambience.
