Need a pick me up? Feeling depressed? Ole! La barra will lift your spirits, fill your stomach and feed your soul. They have managed to bring the feeling and taste of Spain to Chelsea. This is my favorite place to stop and get a vermut, tapas and churros after a day in New York. A perfect ending!

Second time to this restaurant. Service was personable and overall very good as expected. The food took some time to come and once we advise the waiter things started to arrive. We ordered from the restaurant week menu this time around. The food was of great quality, well presented, and tasty.
