"Everything we ordered was tasted very very good, and the presentation was beautiful."
"The steak bits, roasted cauliflower, roasted mushrooms, and crab cake were all outstanding!"
"Delicious tapas!"
"Actually had Christmas dinner here and wow! Recommendations include the lamb, mushroom croquettes and octopus."
"Every single thing we ate was so delicious. Lobster mac and cheese, grilled Octopus, bone marrow with toast, grilled scallops, with all of the garnishes were all amazing."
"The food here was mouth watering."
"The food was undeniably delicious, and the location was great."
Cons:
"The truffle lobster mac and cheese was a bit too heavy in my opinion. The steak bites were a bit dry for my liking."
"Food was decent, but paella rice was a bit dry."
"The paella has no flavor at all… we doubt that the chef didn't put any salt in it, it tastes like plain white rice."
"The paella for two was dry and lacked flavor/seasoning. The rice was literally stuck to the bottom of the pan because it was dry and overcooked."
"The shrimp, mussels, rice, monkfish, and squid were all dry. Not worth the 78 bucks."
"Grilled octopus was ridiculous... 28 bucks for 1 slice? that's unacceptable..."
"Worse place ever, paella was bad, no flavor, just like regular rice, bad service."
Service
Pros:
"The service was amazing our waitress was pretty much on it the whole time we didn’t have to ask for anything."
"Outstanding servers will give perfect wine and plate suggestions."

"Our server Jelena (pronounced Yelena), was also a warm hearted breath of fresh air."
"Elis our waitress was awesome! So sweet and so attentive."
"Our waitress was really nice and attentive. the service was great!"
Cons:
"I don't like going to places where the staff looks and acts like they don't want to be there."
"20 minutes later the hostess showed up and said sorry we are short of staff."
"We had to summon the waitress and ask for service, the bar tender comes out and ask us what we ordered & Said the waitress didn't understand what we ordered she was new."
"However when the bill came, we were surprised to see an extra surcharge of approx $4 on our bill."
"The worst service of some workers on this place."
"Ordered and 47 minutes later I called the restaurant since I could not get anyone attention."
"The service was awful. I asked for extra a set of utensil to share the dish. But waiter said one person only can got one knife and fork."
Ambience
Pros:
"Convenient midtown location for after work happy hour. Great ambience."
"A bustling venue full of delicious food and good vibes."
"The ambiance is relaxing. I'm not on display for photo ops, it's not pretentious (for NY) as everyone there is for the company (at least tonight) and it's dark with enough warm lighting."
"Decoration was nice and the live singer was amazing."
"Cute place in the city for a date!"
"The ambience is very sexy very romantic dimly lit candles at the table it was a really nice vibe for a late night bite."
"The atmosphere is great."
Cons:
"The atmosphere ding is because there was a live loungey kind of jazz band, who were lovely musicians, but piped far too loudly through the speaker system."
"The music needed to be at least 50% the volume it was at on the speakers."
"I was wincing at the noise level, and my party had to begin shouting across the table to hear each other."
"The ambience was ok, nothing extraordinary."
"Place is not warm and welcoming any more."
"Nice ambience but lacks any kind of Spanish feel."
"The place is cute and vibe-y. It gets loud at night with music and people talking."
Value
Pros:
"Pro Tip: If you're arriving after 7pm the parking on streets parallel is free."
"Great happy hour deals (that seem to last all day)."
"The carafes of wine are a good deal."
"They have a special offer of $38 for unlimited cocktails for 90 min."
"Bazar has a great happy hour from 3:30p-6:30p daily. Drinks are slightly discounted coming out to $9 a cocktail and $7 a glass of wine."
"They have really good prices and the service is very attentive."
"Ordered: Oysters (1/2 off for HH), Oxtail Cavatelli and Amish Half Chicken, 2 sangria's, chocolate dessert = $130 incl. tip and tax. Not so bad at all given the neighborhood and how much food we ordered."
Cons:
"When paying, if you want to pay by credit card, you need to pay extra."
"The most off-putting thing is that they charge an additional fee to your bill for paying with credit card."
"They charged unreasonable Non cash adjustment fee when we asked for check."
"We had to be cautious with the bill to avoid paying double tips as they charged a gratuity of 20% and they will charge for credit card fees if you’re paying with card."
"AVIOD, minimum 20% tip for two ppl dine in... Like wth dude if you require a mandatory service fee you should LABEL IT or TOLD the customers BEFOREHAND."
"Prices on menu “reflect a cash discount” and you’ll be charged $3-5 more per item if you pay with card."
"The drinks were fine but ridiculously overpriced (even by NYC cocktail bar standards...$16 for an old fashioned with Maker’s Mark?)."
