    We had their signature paella and it was perfect! The best part though was the service - our waiter and their helpers were very attentive and the person serving us suggested great wine to pair with our food, thank you! The CASH ONLY option is a bit weird for this kind of upscale establishment, but if you come prepared, no problem. ATMs are close by as well. I will definitely bring my out-of-town guests to this restaurant as it is really close to my place and we had such a great experience there.

    Been wanting to come to this restaurant in a very long time since I loved food in Spain when I went, but having this in my hometown Washington height’s is just priceless, first off I have to say the service is exceptional! Make sure you ask for Oliver, he is a server and bartender he makes the most delicious caipirinha. He recommended the ribeye steak and it was amazing! Loved it! Will come back again for the Skirt steak. They have a full bar, nice tv’s to watch your favorite games and just have a really nice time.

    Nice place near the Palace theater. Server's were great always asking if you needed anything or refilling our drinks. Just remember to bring cash, they don't accept credit cards, but the do have a ATM downstairs that only charges $1 service fee.

    Excellent place for dates, good lighting, the music is diverse at a perfect volume that allows you to enjoy a good conversation and the music at the same time. The food and drinks are very good. I truly enjoy my time there every time i go just make sure to carry cash as they don't accept credit cards 🤨🤔😱😩yes i know! Below the black rice seafood paella. Delicious.

    The food and the service were amazing. the decor was not spectacular, but the food made up for it. I would also recommend the shrimp and lamb chop not pictured. A little pricey and parking is HORRIBLE, so add $35 to your bill!

    I haven't been to this restaurant in a while but I stopped in last night and ordered a ribeye steak with these delicious Spanish potatoes. I had this wonderful salad with artichokes and walnuts and cherry tomatoes and I had these dates wrapped in bacon and syrup. So so good. I sat at the bar and had a wonderful staff. Wonderful service, five stars. Very polite. It was just a wonderful experience and I would definitely return again. It was delicious. Food made to perfection. The only thing bring cash. They don't accept credit cards. Bring cash. Thank God there was an ATM in the basement. I give this place five stars

    We ate in a very nice trailer outside the restaurant but would have liked to have been seated inside instead. Food was amazing, steak on bread, chorizo in bbq sauce, the lambs were so delicious, wine was awesome. The only tapas we didn’t like was the octopus it was chewy, but other than that we loved this place. Service was outstanding.

    I’ve tried their mushroom croquette, spicy potatoes, shrimp gambas, octopus, bruschetta with steak on top, and dessert. Everything was great. Nice happy hour. Keep in mind that they are cash only

    Found this place on a whim while waiting for Movies with Lin Manuel Miranda at United Palace. Pleasantly surprised by the delicious tapas- garlic shrimp, goat stuffed peppers, sangria and little seafood burrito- and service. Will be back for more!

    Selected the place totally at random not knowing what we would find, it was a pleasant surprise. We ordered the steak and it was enough to feed two to four people while worth the money. The largest tapas item I've ever seen, Speaking of money, just a warning. They only take cash but there is a ATM machine downstairs. You can use any extra cash to tip the staff. They were very courteous.

    We visited Manolo Tapas to celebrate my cousin's birthday. This place has a very nice decor, and it's very clean but it's a small location. As soon as you enter, to the right is there bar location with a few chairs. To the left is there main dinning room. They have an additional private seating area located in the basement, which accommodates about 18 people. The staff was very nice and professional. The server recommended the paella, which he said was there best dish. It didn't have the traditional saffron flavors that a paella has, but presentation was nice. I had the Rib-eye which was under cooked but they fixed that without an issue, but I wanted vegetables but my waiter informed me that it comes with french fries and the veggies is an additional cost. The food was already a little pricey to begin with, churrasco Steak is $34 and Rib-eye $38. I'm not sure if I would return to this location or recommend it, but everyone deserves a second chance.

    Great food and excellent service! The only thing I didn't expect was for it to be cash only. There is an ATM inside so it's not a problem

  • 4/5 Josh M. 1 year ago on Google
    Good semi-Spanish food with a nice atmosphere. "Semi" because, like many NYC "Spanish tapas" restaurants, the preparation and ingredients have a notable DR or PR twist. For example, the chorizo has what tasted like a molle sauce or some sort of sweet thickener -- not something you'd see in a pure Spanish dish. The tortilla had bits of peppers etc. All good, but worth noting. Also, on the pricey side (although I haven't been out to eat in old neighborhood for a while to know what prices are nowadays).

    I celebrated my wedding 10 years ago at Manolo Tapas. I can guarantee that the food has been consistently delicious since they opened their doors. I love the ambiance, the service, and how fast the food is served to the tables.

  • 5/5 Phyllis L. 1 year ago on Google
    The ambiance, food and service were all 5 Star! The food was phenomenal! The Paella was out of this world! The seafood was very fresh and rice perfectly was cooked with wonderful seasonings! This is a very reasonable and must-do experience!

    Wow! Simply amazing. Incredible service. Incredible flavors. Incredible atmosphere. Best Spanish food I have experienced in the US. Are you in NY? LA ROSA Fine Foods / manolo tapas at 4165 Broadway is incredible. Wishing I could take them home to San Diego with me...
