Just love everything about this place! Delicious food, great service and the best tinto de verano I had in NY. Awesome!
Awesome food and service! The food and drinks were unique and delicious. Highly recommend the arroz.
This is definitely one of my favorite New York places to go to. Love the food, the wine, the service and just the all around atmosphere. It is where I go with friends who know about food, want to eat really, really well and just have a relaxing good time.
Friendly staff and terrific food. One of my favorite places in the neighborhood.
The food and service was amazing. 5 stars all the way.
Solid place to go for Spanish style tapas.
Everything we ordered was delicious. Alongside the well prepared small plates, the cocktails were also quite nice.
The interior is also well designed and suitable for casual and nicer meals
Food is flavorful, we loved the basque dog, the Gilda’s were tiny, not enough to fully enjoy the flavor. We ordered the octopus which was delicious, please try it! The drinks were great, we tried the vermouth on tap, the gin and tonic on tap, and a glass of rioja. The steak was the worst part of my experience. It was a cheap cut of beef cooked very very poorly. It had a thick grey/brown ring around the edges a little pink and mainly blue in the middle. Very poorly cooked.
Too busy eating to take photos! Dark, intimate and cosy table at the back for 6 of us. Waitress was excellent and in moments we’d agreed on the chef’s suggestion of sharing plates for 6. Excellent food - Mexican/Asian with a gourmet twist on homely. Wine list was well-rounded and not gouging on the pricing front. 800 bucks for 6 chef’s meals and 3 bottles of Spanish Rioja. Good soundtrack that was 80s/90s and not too loud. An excellent casual addition to that part of town.
I'm in love!
The food was unexpectedly amazing, very thoughtful, creative, well balanced - party in my mouth!
My favorites were
Shishito peppers,
Mackerel
Papatas Bravas
Saffron Fried Rice
We will go back to try more!
The food and the service were really good. Everything we had was delicious and quite authentic. They also serve basque cider !
Nice cozy place in a friendly neighbourhood.

This place was amazing! Got their gin cocktail and it was surprisingly smooth. We decided to be spontaneous and went with the "chef cook for you" menu that is $48 on Mondays (normally $60) and comes with family style appetizer and entrees. The octopus was cooked to it's perfection, and the chorizo was super flavorful unlike normal sausages to how you would expect. The swordfish was slightly disappointing as it wasn't as flavorful as the other dishes but it didn't ruin the overall dining experience. The food was great and the staff was friendly - always stopping by at the right time to serve us the next dish and fill our water. This place also doesn't accept tip nwhich was a surprise towards the end. Definitely recommend!
This is a review of the even by Tasting Collective that we attended. It was a 10-course brunch, created especially for this event (they don't usually serve brunch).
The inside was really nice and warm, with lots and lots of wood used throughout. Even the sign outside had wood. The left side was exposed red brick wall, beautiful and brings out the rick history behind it. The inside is long but not so narrow. I liked how the tables are set in a way that they are more spacious than most other restaurants in Manhattan. Right behind these counters is a huge, beautiful, wooden bar, fully stacked.
They have counter seating and tables seating up front, and booth seating in back, next to kitchen. After the booth and kitchen, they have a bigger room with more table seating.
During this 10-course brunch, I got to taste: Citrus and Cream Torrijas, Green Garlic Tortilla Española, Jamón Croquetas, Little Gem Salad, Marinated Mushrooms, Membrillo and Idiazabal Toasts, Octopus and Shishito Pepper Skewers, Pimentón Bacon and Pea Migas, Piquillo Rellenos, Smoked Pork Fat Potatoes.
I had an amazing brunch here at Huertas, thanks to the chef, staff, and of course, Tasting Collective. I would love to go back for more of their high quality, tasty food. One thing I learned about this restaurant is that they use “Hospitality Included” structure, meaning, no tips required. Therefore, their staffs are treated equally and fairy, and they have more connection to the restaurant and it’s success. It is good to know your server is not working to get your tip, but they are working to do their best, without any concern for tips. I really like and support that! This is a great spot to have an amazing, high quality meal to share with your loved ones, in very comforting, relaxing atmosphere. I can already think of several people to bring with us for our future visits…! Read my full review of this restaurant and food on my food blog, foodlovergirl.
Nice place to have small plates with many people. Interesting drinks and great service. The dishes are a bit pricy but the quality is amazing. The octopus was very tender.
Everything was excellent, but I we did find the octopus a little bit bland. In addition, the mackerel was literally out of a can, so also a bit blend. Great service and a comfy restaurant in the LES. Wise to make a reservation. Also, as most tapas restaurants, it does get expensive.
Cool venue, probably best to go on a slow night so you can hear your own conversations. Veggie options somewhat limited, but doable. The mushrooms were the most flavorful dish.
The steak was delicious and the drink meet me in the bathroom even though its not alcoholic taste very good and interesting:))
We had a private event at Huertas last weekend and cant express our heartfelt gratitude with the quality and execution of their delicious food, drinks and exceptional service! From beginning to end, Katie and Jonah were phenomenal in helping us plan the event - made it easy and never stressful. We did a lot of research for a private lunch and Huertas met all our requirements - real private room, delicious & well priced food menu options and drink packages, and responsiveness.
As I told Huertas, we are truly thankful for the turnout of our private event, that we can't wait to plan the next private event there again!
If you are looking for a restaurant for a private event, look no further and reach out to Katie at Huertas - she is exceptional and was there for the planning and at the event itself!
Highly recommend Huertas, for Happy Hour, Dinner and Private Events!
Really awesome place! Was invited there tonight and it was my first time. Everything here is first rate - food, drinks, decor and service. We had couple of tapas (tuna with chick peas; some kind of rice; octopus over potatoes; a dish with shrimp; deep fried stuff balls) topped off with a sweet fried roll dipped in hot fudge. (Sorry, don't remember what were the dishes called!) The portions were so generous that we ended up taking some home. Really exceptional was the service... Staff continuously checked on our well-being and it wasn't only our server. They were so professional and courteous; always came over with a genuine smile and helpful suggestions. My friend loved it so much, she's seriously contemplating a party there for her son's 21st. Absolutely will return and recommend!
Surprisingly delicious honestly. We didn’t have a reservation on a Saturday and were able to sit at the bar and move to a table to eat. Good happy hour deals until 7 every day and amazing food!
Would recommend and return.
I recently bought a Basque cookbook, but have never had the food, so I was really excited when I found Huertas while researching places to eat in NYC. Wow! The food and service were so good I found myself asking why there aren't more restaurants like this everywhere...meaning outside NYC. The pintxos were a great way to start. Our waitress highly recommended the Iberico steak and it was so delicious I can't even describe how good it was. The Octopus was excellent as well. Wine by the bottle is reasonably priced. I have to come back to NYC soon for business and am definitely coming back here for dinner!
We went here to get the tasting menu, and it was really good. It's probably my favorite restaurant right now, and I would like to go back when I can. It was cool that they had a chef's tasting menu that wasn't necessarily on their menu. One of the favorite dishes I had was potato and squid in squid ink. I think the tasting menu is really worth it especially on Sunday and weekdays when it's cheaper. I love the fact that it doesn't accept gratuity, while their service was still very good. The manager, Flip, was also very friendly and came over to talk to us for awhile about the food. I will definitely come back here again.
My husband and our 2 friends had been to Basque and we were missing the food so we went to this place. Made a reservation for a Saturday night and they kept it. Even though our 2 friends were running late, they sat us. Everything was delicious. We did around 7 main plates amongst the 4 of us and 2 desserts. Perfect amount of food for us and all delicious. The only reason for 4 stars was our server wasn’t the friendliest and seemed eager for us to leave, maybe since 2 of us weren’t drinking alcohol? Worth a try!
