El Born

My husband and I went for the Tuesday deal on tapas (unlimited small plates until 9pm from a specific selection), the place was buzzing, absolutely great vibes. The salty peppers were phenomenal, as well as the patata bravas and little anchovy bruschetta. The let down was the paella, way too much squid ink, it was so overpowering that we could barely taste anything else. Plus both the rice and the fish were really overcooked and chewy and overall not that much flavorful. Drinks weren’t good either, too sweet, and not spicy at all (they were supposed to be). The restaurant is cute and cozy and the service nice. It’s a great place to go to on a Tuesday and the tapas deal is definitely good, but they should really work on their seafood dishes.

A delicious taste of Barcelona in Williamsburg. The authenticity of Barcelona infused our meal here. We ordered the Chef's Menu and this chef was so generous. Plate after plate of tapas came pouring forth from the kitchen. Each one so delicious. And by the time I felt like there was too much food then showed up the big pan of paella. Every mouthful, every taste was so good. The service was friendly and prompt. The dining hall is narrow and very long with an awesome garden in the back. Every seat was taken and with good reason. Very fair price, especially for this virtual trip to Barcelona.

Great bar/restaurant. Went for tapas at the end of their happy hour and I was surprised by the excellent prices. Foodwise, with my wife we had the cheese platter, charquterie platter, tortilla espanola and the croquetas. The best was the tortilla espanola with the rest being okeyish. Sangria was good, they also had a great selection of beers (not many draft though) and wines. Service was very friendly. Would recommend and will come back.

Oh boiii.. this place is AWESOME.. came here twice.. and I always look forward to dine here. All their dishes are savory and hits the spot. But my main picks are the octopus, kale salad, shrimp and ox tail.. trust me on this. If you order the same dish as I did. You will go out of your way to write this review. 🔥🔥🔥. It's always a mix crowd n it's always packed so make sure u have reservation. They also have spacious outdoor dining at the back with heaters but it can get lil chilly regardless. I can't wait to go during summer time n chill at the back. 🙂 As for parking you can always find on the street. Couple of blocks here n there, u will be fine.
