Bartolo

The cutest bar and seating decor. So much character and great vibe. Service was excellent and sever we had was knowledgable, accomodating. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming. Cocktails were not impressive but food was amazing. Chicharron and anchovie is must have if you like those dishes. Price is high for the app portion but so good. Quality here, not quantity. Mandatory garlic shrimp egg app was huge and good for sharing; yummy and well priced. The mushroom or dishes for vegeterians, not so exciting. Ended with a good flan dish.

As a fan of Ernestos, I finally got to experience Bartolo and it exceeded my expectations. The space itself was incredibly stylish and the food was fantastic. A few standouts for me were the Anchoa Y Matequilla, Champinones Al Ajillo, Huevos Fritos Con Patatas Y Gambas, Callos A La Madrilena, and Chuleta De Buey, amongst others. Don't sleep on the cocktails here. I would put their martini up with some of my other favorites in the city. I was also a big fan of the Espresso De Brandt which is an Espresso Martini with Pastis and Cacao. Top level! Really awesome staff, service, and vibes. Can't wait to return.

World class dining experience! It brought be back to Spain instantly! Chef Ryan is using the best ingredients and cooking with incredible technique. Each bites makes you want to try the next!

Sexy, beautiful little restaurant... It's a sprawling but tight space, so newbie fabulous-affective passive-aggressive transplants are fortunately forced to actively engage with and experience actual New Yorkers... It's a great Spanish restaurant, in the West Village, and it's flippin' delicious...

The ajo blanco is one of the best dishes I’ve eaten in New York City. It’s a perfect balance of texture, cream, salt, and sweet. The anchovies with butter, the chicharron with almonds, and the braised oxtail with potatoes were spectacular. I prefer the tortilla at Ernesto’s, but Bartolo’s thin and runny version was very well done. The torcino dessert with plums, almond cookies, and a rich crumble was pure heaven. Our server was great. And the decor is stunning. Every detail—the paneled walls, the rose colored seating, and the matador prints—make you feel like you’re living a Hemingway novel. Go here. It’s really good.
