Seated at the kitchen window, I couldn't have asked for a better seat at in the house. Chef Arturo not only accommodated my partners food questions and adjustments but also was our server for the busy lunch. Great burger, juicy roasted chicken and possibly the best Ceasars salad I've ever had. Crispy potatoes wedges are to die for. Can't wait to come back for tapas!

Boqueria is absolutely phenomenal. From the aesthetic & ambiance, menu selection, to superb service. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, without being overbearing. We tried about 11 dishes and every single one was amazing. Bobbi was the best part of the evening; her bubbly personality and laughter helped make my friend's birthday even more special (and shout out to the birthday churros). I cannot recommend this place enough! I will definitely come back the next time I'm in the city.

At the risk of sounding dramatic, and as a super fan of all things relating to the Iberian peninsula, this has been my favourite culinary experience in NYC. Leo was a superb server and the space is incredible. 10/10 recommend!

Camilo was an amazing server and the food matched the quality! My favorite was the seasonal carrots, husband loved the hamburguesa and we both enjoyed the meatballs. I would love to come back here again if we visit the city 💕

Food was great. Paella didn’t take so long which was amazing. We had both the pulpo and the gambas al ajillo and they were fantastic. The green sauce in the paella is great, it add some nice flavor. We came around 3PM on a Sunday and the place was pretty empty but it has a nice vibe.

I tried the Classic Chefs Menu and everything was amazing. It’s carb heavy but still delicious. It was two of us the tasting menu was $52 we got a drink each and including tip I spent about $90 per person for all of it.

Great food and service! Came in at a super hot weather but their food still raised our appetite. Close to the theatre district so super connu for theatre fans. Would come back again.

We had a fantastic dining experience! The food was absolutely delicious, fresh, flavorful, and served hot. Our server was incredibly warm and hospitable, going above and beyond to ensure we were well taken care of. She was attentive throughout the meal, checking in at just the right moments without being intrusive. The welcoming atmosphere and excellent service made for a wonderful time with family. We’ll definitely be back!

The experience from start to finish felt thoughtfully curated, the kind that reminds you how powerful great hospitality and well-executed food can be. From the moment we arrived, the service set the tone. Karla (with a “K” 😊) took exceptional care of us throughout the meal, attentive without ever being intrusive. She had a warm, natural way of making us feel welcomed and comfortable. Manager Tiffany also stopped by and went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. That level of attentiveness elevates a meal from simply good to genuinely memorable. The atmosphere itself deserves recognition. Even during the lunch hour, the space maintained a calming, relaxed energy. We ordered the paella, and although it required a bit of patience, it was absolutely worth the wait. The rice was cooked beautifully, with a superb texture that struck that delicate balance between tender and structured. It was hearty and deeply satisfying. For my personal taste it leaned slightly salty, but the overall execution and flavor profile still made it a standout dish. Among the tapas, the croquetas were easily the highlight of the meal. Crisp on the outside and wonderfully creamy within, they delivered that perfect contrast of texture that makes this classic tapa so beloved. Each bite was rich, comforting, and incredibly flavorful—without a doubt my favorite small plate of the afternoon.

I have been to the Boston location a few times, and decided to try my luck in NYC. I was not disappointed. Service was a little slow, but the food and ambiance were just perfect. We ordered albondigas ($17.5) croquetas ($9)and gambas al ajillo ($19.5) all delicious and authentically Spanish. Two bottles of wine later ($60 each) and a great lunch was had. Food is authentic and delicious. I can’t wait to go back.

Been here two times and did the “Boqueria experience” both times. The first time had an amazing experience. Everything was brought out with an explanation of what you were getting and in a nice timely matter. The most recent time felt rushed, they were bringing multiple plates out at once. They didn’t let us know what we were eating. Our table was so crowded because they didn’t give us time to finish our current plates. Either way food was always good.

It's perfectly decent Spanish Tapas. Nice decor, good service. The food is alright, nothing that will blow your mind but it's good. The Brussels sprouts is nicely caramelized and mildly charred, which is proper. The octopus was ok, it was tender but would have been better if the "skin" was crispy. Overall, would I eat there? Sure, if it's convenient, but wouldn't go out of my way to go specifically for it.

We went last night pre movie and were seated immediately . I loved everything especially the fast , friendly efficient service . Only issue, vwe sat outside in the enclosed courtyard and it was very noisy a lot of the time with people talking . There's a fantastic selection of reasonably priced tapas dishes and the ones we had were delicious ( not amazing but arrived fast!) . Would go back definately .

Chic Ambiance and Must-Try Tapas! ​We visited Boqueria W40th for a slightly delayed weekend brunch and were seated immediately, which was a nice start. The atmosphere here is truly a highlight—very chic, vibrant, and thoroughly enjoyable. It sets a fantastic scene for a New York brunch or tapas experience. ​Our server was excellent: polite, friendly, and clearly knowledgeable about the menu, guiding us through the tapas-style offerings. ​For starters, we were highly impressed with the tapas. The Kale Salad was very nice and refreshing; while it lacked a bit of crunch, the delicious cheese component more than made up for it. The absolute star of the meal, however, was the Mushroom Croquets. With its perfectly crunchy exterior and the wonderfully cheesy, truffle aioli filling, it was a thoroughly flavorful delight that truly won us over! ​Hoping for another hit, I ordered the single-serve Seafood Paella. Unfortunately, this dish was a bit disappointing. Although the flavor profile was there (and improved with a pinch of salt), the iron skillet it was served in had excessive charring—it felt almost burnt in parts, making some of the rice nearly inedible. While the rice texture might have been intentionally al dente, the char was distracting and meant the dish ultimately didn’t meet expectations. ​Overall: Boqueria is a fantastic spot for the atmosphere and those incredible tapas (seriously, order the croquetas!). The service is top-notch. If you stick to their strong small plates, you will have a wonderful meal.
