Fantastic place, we walked in on a Thursday night thinking we needed a reservation, but we got a table. Service was top-notch. The food was even better. Highly recommend.
Enjoyed a wonderful date night with my husband. The specials are amazing - would 110% recommend the sirloin steak special! The other plates are good as well - nothing we ate was bad.
A perfect place for drinks, a date or meeting people.
The staff is attentive responsive but the place is busy so give them a little time.
Overall the food is great but the special Octopus and chorizo (pinxtos pulpo y chorizo) and squid in ink and rice are standouts.
All for a very reasonable in Manhattan.

Sitting outside enjoying my delicious squid and squid ink sauce, sipping on a tap sangria and feeling the sun hit my face was perfect. Highly recommend the stuffed peppers as well, really awesome on a hot day. 10/10!
We enjoyed our dining experience here so much. The attentive, knowledgeable and friendly waitress made excellent suggestions and everything we ordered was delicious. We sat in a booth and while we appreciated the extra room for the three of us, and have room for the food we ordered, the wood seat was hard and even though I’m tall, my legs awkwardly dangled from the seat and feet barely touched the floor. Seating aside, we couldn’t ask for a better dining experience and will definitely return.
I came here for a date night and was so impressed by each of the tapas. We ordered 5 dishes to share between us 2. We luckily arrived for happy hour before 6pm and ordered 2 rounds of the hel's belz. Loved the croquettes, po boy, and lamb skewers. We had space for dessert thankfully so got the flan. Will def be returning.
Delicious food, really friendly staff and good drinks! Our friend from Spain was with us, she said the food was just as good as what she has back in Spain. Authentic dishes!
I have their food 4 in total but adding 1 to the staff. The space was narrow but it made the vibes warm and lovely.
✨My VIP went to Flan tbh! It was really smooth, creamy and the taste was fantastic! with the caramel sauce.
🍽Beef tongue was also a good one for me. The layers of the tastes were well balanced.
Croquette and the squid & rice with ink sauce were not that outstanding. Croquette was a classic; and the rice was too soft.
I appreciate the bartender treated me the little dessert as I mentioned my birthday was coming (the next day.) And it was deliiiiucious😌
Unpretentious, authentic tapas that celebrates the ingredients with simple flavors. Highly recommend the ham croquettes, lamb screwer, veal tongue, the signature flan, and whatever’s on their daily specials list. Great service and cozy ambiance. Come early for lovely walk-in bar seats.

We used to come here, all the time. Now, one of our favorite staff is gone and our other only works on weekends. And, the reviews were not good for a while. But, I've always loved this place and convinced my friends to try again.
So glad we did! The food is as good as it always was (even though my unfortunate dietary needs have limited me.) And our server--Rebecca--was SO on top of things! She guided me every step of the way, and even alerted me to bad for ME ingredients in some of our old faves. She made us feel like she had no other customers for the evening. She was so attuned! Good to see some other familiar faces, as well.
The only reason I had to score low was not really Tia's fault. One of my friends required a proper chair, rather than one of the higher ones or a seat at the bar. So, we had to sit in back. Sadly, there was a group of young women, having a birthday party. Not only were they so loud that I had to shout to be heard--and usually I'm the one being told to be quieter--but they really dwarfed the entire room with their selfishness. So, not a critique on my beloved Tia Pol. This is more of a warning to keep a lookout for big groups of women if you're going to sit in the back room. Otherwise, you're in good hands!
Everything we ordered was very tasty.I don't think you can go wrong here. The seasoning on the tapas was just amazing. I loved the lamb skewers and Crockett the best!
The food at Tia Pol is really tasty but not necessarily out if this world. The croquetas and patatas bravas are especially good and we also really enjoyed the artichoke salad. But what makes this place so great and keeps me coming back is the staff and the atmosphere. The space itself is cozy yet lively and the staff is incredibly friendly.
My experience was fantastic!! Its a jewel in that neighborhood. The metredi is phenomenal, very professional....the food is just amazing! Come and visit and enjoy this experience! Just gorgeous 😍
Sat at the bar for Happy Hour and it was a great time. Met some other people and we all enjoyed the great food, service, and the awesome 80s music playlist!
The food is worth every penny. Bring your friends and share everything on the menu.
Come in during happy hour. The waitress was really nice and gave us wonderful recommendations. She also let us know that happy hour was ending, but said we could order off the happy hour menu for our first round of drinks.
A number of words of praise come to mind for Tia Pol and the culinary experience I had, but authentic is the first and really describes it. After enjoying tapas in some truly excellent local restaurants during visits to Spain, I can say unequivocally the only difference is location. I look forward to my next experience at Tia Pol.
Happy hour until 6pm with a nice selection of drinks and food.
You have to be sitting outside or at the bar to get the happy hour though.
Would recommend the Patatas Bravas!
The cocktails were quite good, but we'd try the wine next time instead
Friendly staff who were very welcoming and there for anything you need.
As soon as you bite into the sharp, crunchy bread, you know these folks take their food seriously. Delicious tapas with high quality ingredients, and extremely helpful staff. Don't forget to check the specials for treats like fried pig ears!
Super cozy Spanish tapas place in Chelsea. Loved everything I’ve tried here: kale salad with artichoke and white asparagus, tomato salad with tuna, chicken liver, and so on. Would love to come back!
