Boqueria
With one location in Soho and another in the Flatiron district, Boqueria transports New Yorkers (and visitors) to the famous Barcelona market for which it was named. It's known for being terminally packed-as a tapas bar should be- and set in a fast-paced environment. Looking at the menu, the Pimientos de Padrón (Blistered Shishito peppers, coarse sea salt) and the Dátiles con Beicon (Dates stuffed with almonds and Valdeón, wrapped in bacon) caught our eye. Be sure not to forgo the extensive list of Spanish wines!
