Spain: Sevilla
As New Yorkers living a hectic lifestyle, there’s a certain magic in the Spanish tradition of decompressing over an assortment of small plates (a.k.a. tapas) and a glass of wine. That’s why we love Sevilla, a homey Spanish restaurant in the West Village that has been running since 1941 (being open for so long in this ever-changing city has to tell you something about the quality of the food, right?). Order some crunchy croquetas, a juicy tortilla, and a Paella Valenciana, and enjoy the authentic Spanish food in this unpretentious old-world tavern. Fun fact: Sevilla is one of five restaurants to earn the “America’s Classics” award in 2015.
