El Pote Espanol, New York, New York, Cuban Restaurant Details

Food:

"Home away from home" for Murray Hill amigos since '77, this Spanish stalwart keeps business brisk with "fantastic paella" and other "first-rate" Iberian standards; maybe it's looking a bit "shabby", but locals count themselves "lucky" to have it.

Food:

Great food! Cozy place

Food:

I have been a patron of this restaurant almost since opening day along with many of my family and friends. Used to bring my kids there when he was still a baby and today he's celebrating his 29th birthday there. I can say that the food as well as the service is FANTASTIC. I'm from Spain and can tell you the food is authentic. Love the owners Enrique and Pepe and love the staff.

Food:

Two stars because I don't hate it. It was nothing special. It is fake spanish food, not Spaniard more like salty over cooked burn latin food. The paella had no saffron which is one of the main ingredients and the rice was not paella rice. they gave me burnt chorizo and the waiter had a nasty atittute. This place is for someone who does know anything about Spanish food. I lived there in 2010.

Food:

A cozy quint Spanish restaurant that has been around for ages. The servers have also been there for ages. I highly recommend the paella and they would also make vegetarian paella upon request. Other favorites are the sangria and the desserts.

Food:

This is an excellent neighborhood restaurant. The Gamba is the best - flavorful and great for dunking the delicious bread in! The paella is the best I have had in ages - try the combo with shrimp, sausage, chicken and scallops. Yum!
