    Quick pre-theater dinner and Bota was perfect. Great selection of traditional dishes, all done very well. We were impressed with the fried brussel sprouts. Nice little wine list as well. Very attentive service.

    If I could rate a place 5+ stars, COQUETA would be the place to get that ranking. Every. Single. Tapas. Dish. We. Had. Was. Astoundingly. Good. From the Bocadillo La Casa “Bikini” to the Patatas Bravas to the Calabacines a la Brasa... this is one of the very few places that was SO good, we ordered more after that initial trio just to experience more of the menu. Drink-wise, the cocktails are some of the best I've had in the city - creative, delicious, beautifully presented, and memorable. This entire dining experience is one I won't forget. Thank you!

    Had a very nice business lunch at La Marcha and I would recommend it to anyone. We tried all of the tapas available at lunchtime and enjoyed them. Had seconds of the very tender octopus, mushroom croquettes, and brussel sprouts. The dining room is small but nice. We were right next to another group, though I imagine we were the louder of the parties. One waiter for the small room, so there was some initial waiting before we got our orders moving, but he was very pleasant and took good care of us.

    Wow. We had a wonderful time at the Red Window. We had been anticipating going for a few months. We had booked a table to celebrate 2 belated birthdays in August for October. Little did we know that they changed their hours of opening for October. I called and reconfirmed the date and time with them and they said they would open for us as planned. We were treated like queens. We had a lovely server name Melanie. She served us our fantastic rojo sangria and let us know all the popular tapas and entrees as well as her favorites. One of the birthday girls is a food and wine blogger so she picked Melanie brain on the drinks and food being served. We ordered food we could all share. Caesar salad, Arugula Salad,Buffalo chicken wings,and Chili Braised Lamb pasta. Everything was delicious and very filling. They comp us 4 glasses of champagne to celebrate our 2 ladies birthday. What a memorable day. Melanie from Lucca made it so special for us too. The ambiance of the Red Window is colorful and festive and the lively music they played gave it a party atmosphere. We will all go back again. Thanks to the owner for honoring our reservations. You made us very happy!!
