    The service made up for the food. It was very disappointing. Out of the four of us, only one ate most of his food because frankly he eats everything. The rest of us packed most of our food to go despite the fact that we were hungry. The issues varied from dry chicken, undercooked and under seasoned meet. How can you have a soupy yet dry paella. This tells me the rice was cooked recently but the seafood was reheated. Again, lacked flavor. We wish the food matched the atmosphere.

    So you’re not actually reserving a table on this app. You’re just securing your entrance. The cover fee is 20 a person and we realized we weren’t actually going to have a table once we got there. It was packed with people, and there were hardly any available tables (which are first come first serve apparently) because of course the people that arrived earlier hadn’t left yet. Food and drinks are pricey, although very tasty. There are two levels and both are decorated nicely and lean into the nostalgia of noche buena.

    Ernesto’s is a wonderful spot. Authentically both Basque and Lower East Side, it was truly soulful and differentiated in a too often homogenized world. Delicious and interesting food, an incredibly deep and educational Spanish wine list, and friendly, knowledgeable service to guide diners along the way. Very grateful to have dined here.
