Amazing menu, chic Spanish decor and the service was top notch. We came twice on our trip.

Lamano Chelsea deserves more stars. I am blown away by the exceptional customer service, delicious food and intimate restaurant design.I held an event here and everyone with the company went above and beyond to make sure it was impeccable. Kristian, Charlie (our host/server for the evening) and the staff were phenomenal, extremely communicative and very easy throughout the event. I applaud them! The food was delicious, well-timed and fed our group perfectly. The croquettes and seafood paella were the top for me. The wines and selection of alcohol was more than adequate.Its safe to say with the amount of thank you texts and compliments of the restaurant that I received, that our entire party had a great time and will be back! Los Cintron, our band, was equally thrilled with the restaurant and happy to make the celebration extra special.I could not have dreamt of a better experience.Go here.

Had meat, cheese, olive platter + pimientos and wine. All tasted excellent, 5 stars for that. (Creme Catalan dessert was ok.)Service good but slightly harder than it should have been to get out order taken and get our bill, was Saturday eve though.Had no reservation so sat at the bar which was fine but its a shame the bar top doesnt come out a bit more so there would be somewhere to put your knees.

My companion and I were looking to get out of a panel after a movie screening at the nearby SVA theater. We looked at the map to see what was available in the area and Lamano was one of the options. Im not sure why we chose it in the end but it may have been simply because we were already walking in its direction. Im glad we did!The place was small but in every facet packed a punch. Whomever designed the interior knew what they were doing. There is well placed mirror that makes the place look twice as big. Its a really good design trick! Because of the size of the place the tables (all High Tops) are close together. So be forewarned that you might get a little closer than usual to your fellow diners. In fact, you may have to share tables.The kitchen is tiny and pretty much in full view. Remarkably, that small kitchen puts out some pretty awesome dishes. It makes sense that their menu is filled with a lot of tapas options. We ordered several dishes. I liked all but one (a cold bread based dish that I cant recall at the moment). Other than that, my only other dislike was the Strawberry Cider. I think next time Ill stick with the regular cider but dont take my word for it. Try it yourself!Bottom line: You should definitely visit! Just be ready for cozy quarters and avoid the cold tapas dishes. Youll love it!

Came here for brunch on a Saturday via a Pulsd offer. Everything was delicious and the service was impeccable. The cava sangria was light and refreshing and not too sweet. The mimosas were fresh and tasty. It brought us back to our recent trip to Spain. Would definitely come back again.

I visited on a hot summer evening with friends. We ordered a few drinks and a small meal. I did enjoy the food, a potato thing, though did find my portion to be a bit small. Its a nice place in a good location.

Absolutely delicious. The paella was scrape-the-pan-clean good. Charcuterie plate was equally tasty5/5 would come back in a heartbeat.

What a wonderful experience. Made me feel like I was back in Spain at the tapas bar where I worked. The food was delicious and wonderfully plated. Kava sangria was realy good. A new place I will love bringing friends to.

Review 12 (2019-08-23 - Rating: 4)
Great service. Small place so definitely come with a reservation or at a time where theres not a lot of traffic. Awesome croquetas! The chorizo was nothing special. Everything else was good . Not life changing, but really well done .

The place is very cozy, plays great Spanish love songs (including from the great Juan Luis Guerra) and the dessert (creme brulee with berries & marshmallows) was yummy!!!

We thought this place was terrific. They even ran out to buy something they were out of when we asked for it. The artichoke was especially tasty. They gave generous tastes for wine. Go for it!

Review 16 (2021-02-17 - Rating: 4)
Overall the food was okay. Kinda pricey for the amount. However, I did really enjoy the paella. Great atmosphere though!

Mmmmmm tapas. Didn’t have a bad bite in here! Food came out pretty quickly too despite the tapas norm. Would def go here again.

Verry nice venue.Just the right place you need either for a first date or for a drink with friends. Do not hesitate on trying different wines there.

So good for an intimate drink and the tapas are Insanely delicious. The croquetas 😭😭😭💕💕💕💕 especially the truffle one :-)

Great service and outdoor seating are definitely their main selling point. The food was good but had better tapas elsewhere in town. Wish they didn’t put mayo on their beef carpaccio.

Everything was really good. And the service was excellent!

Very friendly service in an intimate setting. If you go here you need to get the paella. I ordered 1 but I wish we had gotten 2.

Review 30 (2017-06-25 - Rating: 5)
I got the charcuterie board and some wine. Both were fantastic!

Everything tasted amazing, try it all. Team was wonderful.

Just stopped in because of the lighting outside the restaurant. I ordered the sushi rolls and a drink. The ambience of all the lights is unique. My sushi was excellent and not expensive. You can bring visitors and family to experience this hidden gem.

Make sure you try the pulpo de feira (octopus and spuds).

Small but lively tapas place. Everything we tried was delicious and the setting was perfect for a small group. The veal cheeks and melted cheese with sausage were two of my favourites.

Review 39 (2018-09-24 - Rating: 4)
Definitely going back. Went for happy hour and the selection of food is delicious. There are about 10 tapas options on the menu for HH, tried four of them and was a happy camper.

Great food. Service was spotty, but it was packed and this was during COVID so it was the outside dining thing. Still, Id go back for sure. Recommended!

Great wine, food, & service. Lamano is the place for a relaxing experience with excellent small bites and a glass of rioja.

Review 43 (2021-10-17 - Rating: 4)
The cava sangria was great and the service was excellent but the menu was lacking - it is a very small menu with not much to choose from. I would come back here for drinks and hanging out outside but not for dinner.

Review 44 (2018-04-23 - Rating: 5)
Quiet wine bar tucked away off of 8th. It was a great place to meet and catch up with a friend during happy hour.

Review 45 (2020-02-11 - Rating: 5)
A small quaint tapas spot with great staff and tasty food. I came with my one year old to catch up with friends, and although they had no high-chairs for kids, the waitress ran to the restaurant next door and borrowed one. The gambas (shrimp) was in a tasty broth, which was perfect for dippping bread, the croquetas were tasty and crisp, and sangria was not too sweet and refreshing.

Review 46 (2018-02-12 - Rating: 5)
Great service and food, the chef is actually from Spain so this place is legit. Recommend the Octopus on the menu.

Review 47 (2018-11-09 - Rating: 4)

Brunch blew past any expectations we had. Morcilla with eggs by far the best.

Charming tapas spot with subtle twists on classics. Reasonable wine options and friendly service. Patatas bravas very flavorful, gambas al ajillo delicious and chef substituted olive oil for beef broth for our pescaterian friend. Beets were phenomenal. Tuna tartar fell flat, but everything else was great.

Review 56 (2017-03-23 - Rating: 5)
Great spot! Soprassada was my favorite.

Review 57 (2018-03-29 - Rating: 4)
Small place, but great food and ambiance. The Egg plant with nuts was a let down, but the rest was incredibly tasty - recommend the fried potatoes and croquettes

Review 58 (2017-05-06 - Rating: 5)
Spanish reds are my FAVORITE wines! The glass options here are very good. I had a glass of their Monastrell (Xenys) followed by the Cabernet (Chateldon Reserva). Both were excellent. Their Patatas Bravas was also very good. The service is great and the ambiance is sharp. Im happy I walked in and will gladly come back!
