    Salinas was a wonderful experience. Lisa took great care of us and made the night enjoyable. We tried several dishes, and everything was delicious, especially the octopus and skirt steak, which were real standouts. A solid spot for good food and great service!

    Excellent experience but the tables are extra small! It doesnt get more uncomfortable than this if youre a party of four stuck into the cubby seats on the side as you enter the restaurant. The seats are upright and youve about 2 inches between your chest and the table (and Im not overweight).The food was very good though, delicate, delicious and a joy to eat. If it werent for the cramped quarters the rating here would be a 5.

    Salinas is a gem of a spot that truly has it all! Their happy hour is fantastic, offering excellent deals that let you enjoy their incredible food and drinks at a great value. The atmosphere is chic yet welcoming, making it perfect for both casual get-togethers and special occasions.The food here is absolutely phenomenal — every dish is packed with flavor and beautifully presented. Here’s what we ordered:* PULPO CON CENIZAS: Tender Canary Island octopus paired with calçot aioli, seaweed, caper berries, black beans, and meyer lemon. It’s a perfectly balanced dish with smoky, tangy, and fresh flavors that highlight the octopus beautifully.* BRAVAS CON HUEVAS MARINAS: Crispy potatoes elevated to a whole new level with trout and black lumpfish caviar, shaved bottarga, citrus-soy, and a spicy brava sauce. It’s indulgent, creative, and an absolute must-try.* CRUDO: Faroe Island salmon tartare with borage cress, raw beets, red onions, and spicy sesame oil. The freshness of the salmon combined with the subtle heat of the sesame oil creates a dish that’s both light and flavorful.The bartenders were amazing — super friendly, attentive, and more than happy to offer recommendations or customize drinks to suit your tastes. It’s clear that they love what they do, and their energy adds to the overall experience.I honestly love it here and can’t recommend it enough. Whether it’s for happy hour or a full dinner, Salinas is a place you’ll keep coming back to!

    Amazing! Amazing experience! Tapas were the best I’ve had. Our table tried most on the menu- the octopus, ceviche and croquettes stick out to me, but everything was outstanding. The drinks were fabulous as well. Our server, Israel, provided top-notch service and went above and beyond. At least five team members and the manager routinely checked on us. We even got a complimentary dessert!

    We had an incredible time at the bar with Steven! He was the best and left a smile on our faces! Overall great food, drinks, super fun atmosphere. Will be back again! Thank you so much Salinas for a great experience.

    We had a fabulous birthday dinner for my best girl Jordan. We had the whole tasting menu but my favorites were all the appetizers, grilled peppers, egg croquettes, potato’s with caviar, and salmon sashimi. For an entire I had the octopus. Every thing was delicious and gorgeous and they treated us so so well. 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

  • Review 7 (2024-12-31 - Rating: 4)

    Good restaurant for small groups, date night, solo dining or catching up with friends. The tables are quite small, so more than 4 people is a squeeze. The arugula salad, meat main, fish main were all delicious. Food is great. Skip the house wine, even during Happy Hour, its not great. Staff is friendly. Nice ambiance.

  • Review 8 (2024-06-01 - Rating: 5)

    The service and food here were delicious. The pulpo (octopus was cooked to perfection). I had the seaweed vegan pasta and it was very tasty. Our server, Johnny was attentive. The atmosphere is great for date night. Will come back soon.

  • Review 9 (2024-01-28 - Rating: 5)

    Amazing food! The dinner was one of the best I’ve had in a long time! We had few appetizers and main courses and they did not miss! My favorite was the salmon with baked potatoes and beef skewers. The desserts were also 10/10! For the drinks we ordered their signature ones and the mixologist did a great job, I loved the drinks so much! I’m definitely coming back again for the food, great service and amazing atmosphere.

    The music is vibrant and so is the variety of tapas. Caught the happy hour and stayed for the drinks! Compliments to the chef, bartender and staff! Highly recommend for date night or friends night out.

    Best Spanish cuisine in town! Our server Fabian was amazing, attentive, and overall great! The food was delicious! Compliments to the chef Johnny! 10/10 🤍

    Nice place. It was Clean. We sat in the Garden Room. Food was good but very expensive. I wasnt blown away.Our drinks were watered down (nothing New) . Just about every table was occupied, so they must be doing something right.

  • Review 16 (2024-10-13 - Rating: 5)

    Super delicious food, lovely wine and really nice staff. Fabian and Johnny took care of us. Very recommended.

  • Review 17 (2024-02-24 - Rating: 5)

    My friends and I had a great experience here. The service was really good, friendly and attentive. I love the Balearic sunset cocktail and the food was amazing, I highly recommend the eggplant, one of the best things I tried this year so far. Also, the ambient is really nice, with live music on the background but not too loud, so you can still enjoy the conversation with your friends. Will be back for sure.

  • Review 18 (2024-12-30 - Rating: 5)

    Really good modern twist on Spanish cuisine. Everything was delicious, and we ordered literally everything (family style) . The croquettes and the fideos were two of our favorites. Shootout to Lisa who took care of us from A to Z.

  • Review 19 (2024-12-07 - Rating: 5)

    This place was great! We had a reservation but had to start a little later due to a family emergency. The hostess was gracious and accommodating. Fabian was our server and was very kind and provided great service. Every dish we had was good too!I recommend making a reservation on Resy

  • Review 20 (2023-11-04 - Rating: 4)

    Great vibe, great food, great sound system and fun and comfortable layout. We ate almost every single time on the small plates menu and not one item disappointed. Get the pitcher of Sangria

  • Review 21 (2024-11-06 - Rating: 5)

    Cocktails were amazing! Olger gave amazing service 🤍 He knew exactly what to create out of my preference and the service was above and beyond. Not to mention the food was 11/10. This is going to be a go-to spot for girls nights! Vivian is also amazing at the bar!

  • Review 22 (2024-03-13 - Rating: 5)

    Delightful authentic Spanish find with a beautiful interior, menu, wine list and the garden seating area is just magical - had a reservation and we sat under the transparent roof listening to the rain while enjoying tapas all night. Will be back whenever we’re feeling up for deliciosa comida española! 💃🏾 ps. Be sure to try the NYC x Espana basque cheesecake - WOW!

  • Review 23 (2024-05-11 - Rating: 5)

    I loved the food so much! Their service was also great. I especially liked the croque! Ill come back next time.

  • Review 24 (2024-05-25 - Rating: 5)

    Visiting from LA and had a great time here. Highly recommend for a date night. Intimate/cozy vibes, great service and the food was excellent. We ordered a sampling of tapas: my favorites were the Bravas with caviar, Crudo and Entraña steak. Drinks were also very good.Make reservations in advance!

  • Review 25 (2024-12-15 - Rating: 5)

    My husband and I had such a great time here. Food, ambience and cocktails were awesome! The friendly bartender, Steven, really gave us a grate experience at the bar; if you’re there ask for him!

  • Review 26 (2023-05-17 - Rating: 4)

    We walked up to some unsuspecting store front but after being walked down a long hallway We got sat outside in a beautiful open roof room. Got the brave potatoes with lumpfish caviar. Was outstanding. Got the octopus, was amazing as well. The Iberian ham was eh kind of tasteless but the quality was up there I think I might just not care for Iberian ham. The cocktails were excellent. Got the seafood rice which was on point. The service was very good as well the back waiter was on the ball and my captain was very knowledgeable about the drinks and menu items. The cheese cake was delicious and warm. The only negative things I could mention was some of the plating was a little lazy, sauce on the rims water spots on the plates that type of thing hardly worth mentioning. But my table was wobbly which was really annoying.However, I definitely recommend visiting this restaurant!

  • Review 27 (2024-09-12 - Rating: 5)

    This place was a total vibe. We got a corner banquette in the back and it was great for people watching while dining. I had the grilled octopus, which was perfectly cooked and also tried my friends Bass that was so tasty. We shared the cauliflower rice for two, which was addictive as was the burnt cheesecake dessert. Will definitely be back for seconds!

  • Review 28 (2023-10-30 - Rating: 5)

    Place and ambiance is amazing. Employees are also very welcoming and sweet! Would love to come again. The signature dish was amazing. I loved the croquetas and the fries are a must. The passion fruit margarita was also a must! :)

  • Review 29 (2024-11-24 - Rating: 5)

    Excellent food, highly recommend. The skirt steak was insanely good - you got to try it! Order it with the patatas marinas and you will be in heaven. Also, Fabian and Jhonny (I think this was his name) were fantastic!!! I will definitely come back.

  • Review 30 (2024-09-22 - Rating: 5)

    Salinas exceeded all my expectations! The food was simply divine, with each dish perfectly crafted and full of rich, authentic flavors. The service was fast and attentive, which made the whole dining experience smooth and enjoyable. Whether you’re craving traditional Spanish tapas or something more substantial, this place has it all. I’ll definitely be back soon!

  • Review 31 (2024-05-29 - Rating: 5)

    Great discovery,Very nice ambiance and service but most of all the food was excellent.Felt like being back in San Sebastien for a moment.Crocchette the octopus and the amazing seabass.Do not skip the Cheesecake, it is a must try for this Basque specialty!

  • Review 32 (2024-10-27 - Rating: 5)

    Steven made us the best drinks & he gave us the best recommendations. Truly a bartender who loves what he does & listens to people’s taste and will make drinks that suit you. It was such a personalized experience. I 10/10 recommend Steven. He’s the best bartender in the city!!

  • Review 33 (2023-11-23 - Rating: 5)

    Very cozy place, with very good music! I went with my boyfriend, we sit on the bar and Olger was super kind and warm with us. I’m vegetarian and he helped me with the food and cocktails. Was really good, everything super tasty.

  • Review 34 (2024-11-03 - Rating: 5)

    This is the second time that i have came to Salinas and it has been great. Both times i got John to serve us and he has been the best. He gave us a great experience and recommended some great food. If you ever come here, ask for John. If i could rate it higher, i definitely would.

  • Review 35 (2024-06-16 - Rating: 5)

    Amazing experience! Food was excellent and great drinks. Perfect for a date night or night out with friends! Vibey and intimate yet fun!

  • Review 36 (2022-06-24 - Rating: 5)

    Such a beautiful space with incredible food and service. We showed up 20 min early and sat at the bar till our table was ready. Had a great conversation with the bar tender who recommended some dishes for dinner. I had the rice paella which was great. Full of flavor and fresh seafood. Had the squid ink croquets which were so damn good and filling. It’s so hard to find any kind of squid ink dish. And the steak was the star of the night. One of the best steaks I ever had. Cooked to perfection with the perfect seasoning and slight char. The desert was great as well. Had the burnt cheesecake and it was a perfect cap to the dinner.Definitely coming back for that steak. And hopefully the garden room roof is open next time.

The soft lighting and charming décor set the stage for a memorable dining experience.Salina’s is the kind of place that keeps you coming back for more. The combination of great food, fantastic flavors, and an outstanding team makes it a standout spot in the city. Highly recommended!

    Ate there with my wife last night.Great service throughout and very tasty food. We were sat kerb side / outside but everything was really nice and service great irrespective.Food was delicious and a good selection of wine to accompany. On pricey side but in life... You get what you pay for!

  • Review 39 (2022-03-24 - Rating: 5)

    Great dining experience at Salinas. Kind of shocked that its only a 4.3 Starred spot. Meanwhile the food is delicious, feels new and refreshing and is complimented by great service. We arrived a little early for a birthday meal and were accepted at the bar with no wait and got drinks almost immediately, no need to transfer bills to table. The first round of drinks (Balearic Sunset and Imitation of Life) were pretty good! and in 15 minutes or so we were brought to our table. The vibe is dim bar car on a midnight train. We sat in the beautiful atrium in the back perfect for a rainy night. We had Croquetas, Fried artchoke and beet plate which was amazing, some crispy potatoes and the European Sea Bass, which was some of the best fish I have ever tried. All in all a marvelous experience and would definitely go back!

With the fresh flowers and the wonderful layout, this makes a great date night romantic dinner place.The cocktails were very good and the food was amazing. Such great options and creativity by the chef.The pulpo (octopus) was phenomenal and so were the sardines, oh they were so good!So were the branzino and the Iberico rice dish!Cant wait to go back!

  • Review 62 (2022-05-18 - Rating: 5)

    “What’s not to like here?” said the Michelin Guide back in 2017. I only discovered Salinatoday after living in Chelsea for over 3 years. I can’t believe I didn’t discover this place sooner. Food , cocktails. atmosphere and service all fantastic. Yes it’s a bit pricey but gosh was it worth it. Smoked salt cod on toast was fabulous, so was the bravas with caviar and beetroot with anchovies to name but a few. The basque cheesecake was a great finish. Thank you. We’ll be back very soon.

  • Review 63 (2023-01-04 - Rating: 5)

    Super cute location in chelsea. Small venue but very cute. Went during the winter but during the summer the roof deck will open up. We enjoyed many different food options in tapas style including the shishitos, croquets, papas fritas, octopus, spaghetti, steak, and olive oil cake. Really enjoyed everything especially the octopus and the steak. Also had espresso martinis and vanilla martini. Service was amazing, very quick and very kind. Really enjoyed everything about this experience and one of my recent favorites in the city. Can’t recommend enough.

    I recently attended a friends birthday dinner at Salinas, and it was an absolutely unforgettable experience. Located on 9th Avenue, this Spanish restaurant exudes charm and elegance. The service was impeccable, with the staff ensuring every detail of the evening was perfect. The food was delicious and flavorful, showcasing the best of Spanish cuisine. Every dish was beautifully presented and bursting with taste. The ambiance made it the ideal spot for a celebration. I cant recommend Salinas enough for a special occasion or simply a night out. Definitely a 5-star experience!I even posted a video 🎬 of it on ig @zazalandco

  • Review 70 (2021-12-08 - Rating: 5)

    So we tasted a lot from the menu. The best ones are the artichokes, cauliflower, the meat on the bone! The one that is 2.2 pounds and $150 for two people is great. The fish - we had sea bass is great as well. In general highly recommend this place. With the prices on the menu they can put a tablecloth on an ugly table…

    I looked up top Spanish restaurants in NYC and Salinas was high on the list. The 5 star reviews of this place are so true as the ambience, food and overall service was truly top notch. Our server Andrew was courteous, attentive, friendly, knowledgeable and wonderful which only added to our amazing experience. My wife and I celebrated our 6th wedding anniversary here and we will be back asap! Food was immense, the atmosphere was very romantic and refreshing, but the service itself was also very consistent. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking to celebrate or just eat and drink at a nice place!

    Highly recommend this place. The interior is very luxury oriented and the food is delicious. Would have given 5 stars if the portion size was a bit bigger for price and if the server didn’t have a hard time explaining the restaurant’s concept to us. Still, a very good place

  • Review 78 (2019-01-31 - Rating: 5)

    Salinas was a happy accident, after I got kicked out of Gin Bathtub next door. I traded a C+ crowd for an A crowd, including Tears for Fears, and Billy Idol (yes, both acts are still around) music producers. The crowd was approachable, chic, and well - dressed, but not pretentious. The food was amazing! How come Id never heard of this before, unlike my well - connected guest, who had? The service was on par with the food. $$$ - $$$$ out of $$$$$ The bathroom was clean. The establishment is handicable, and wheelchair friendly. Couldnt be happier - well maybe sitting by the fireplace. WARNING: 15 MINUTE HOLD TIME FOR A TABLE. Show up on minute 16, and youll be booted, so arrive on time!

  • Review 82 (2022-04-11 - Rating: 5)

    Everything about this experience was amazing. From the decor to the natural light in the dining room to the food, all of my senses are treated to classy-yet-casual dining evening.Among the introductory dishes which were all very tasty, I was drawn to the coliflor al yogurt. This yogurt was a highlighted accoutrement that I didnt know roasted cauliflower needed. It was a refreshingly unexpected surprise.The paella was what you wanted it to be. The rice alone captured all the flavors which almost made the clams, shrimp, and chicken seem extra...almost. Add the entraña to the other proteins to grant the evening a decisive victory.And just when you think it couldnt get any better, the desserts where outstanding! The torrija was anything but what I imagined bread pudding to be. The passion fruit carried me to the end with the marmalade (and a slight hint of mint) to stick the landing.The pastel de queso vasco lists with a simple description, but it was more than the words. This has to be the creamiest cheesecake I have ever had. The burning gave the dessert a slight crunch yet caramelized it just enough to peak the sweetness. When you order one of these, order two.This was my evening. Its a pin on the map whenever I am back in the city.

    Service was excellent however the food was not. The dishes were interesting but not well executed with what appeared to be a lack of care on seasoning and temperature control. Thre decor is well done although it could use a refresh.

    This is one of our favorite bars, where you can strike up a conversation with the friendly barmen. The food always amazing especially if you want a Tapas experience.

    Came here for dinner Friday night. We ate in the garden room which I would highly recommend! We shared everything: patatas bravas, croquetas, chicken and the rice dish with vegetables. Everything was amazing, its hard to pick a favorite. The white sangria which was also delicious. The croquetas of the day were steak, spinach and blue cheese which was a unique combination that I hadn’t had before but might have been the best croquetas I’ve had and we almost always get the croquetas at a tapas restaurant. Our waiter was also very friendly! 10/10 would recommend!

The food was AMAZING, I haven’t found a real Spaniard restaurant in NYC, it was delightful!!.I strongly recommend the Paella, it was the best dish!!!The only thing that it was over priced was the fish of the day (branzino that day), the portion is too small for the price, it was delicious as well.You must come to this place!

    Excellent. Ambiance is not typical Spanish but it is very romantic. The food is exceptional. I sat at the bar and had the filetito with the Dido wine. Theres something to be said about a place whose bar menu is better than the main menu at other places. Tried it before deciding on where Id take my wife for Valentines day and this will be my choice. Definitely recommend. *Updating my review after Valentines day* This place did not disappoint. Definitely a must if you want to impress that special someone. The bartender remembered my face from the previous visit and was very accommodating. My wife enjoyed the food and was very happy that she got to dress up, as this place definitely attracts a more sophisticated crowd.

  • Review 111 (2017-06-19 - Rating: 4)

    The back garden is one of the most beautifully ornate places Ive been: intricate floral arrangements and a skylight make for a very romantic dinner setting. Food was solid, but expensive enough that it missed the 5-star mark for me.

    Steven gave me the best service I’ve had in NYC living here for over 2.5 years. He’s a great hostess and even better server.

    Salinas is a nice spot with a cozy, romantic vibe. The front room, with its comfy booths and fireplace, is a great place to eat. The food was tasty, with some standout dishes like the Pulpo con cenizas, which had well-cooked octopus over black beans. The Bravas Marinas were good, but the caviar didnt quite fit the dish. Overall, its worth a visit for some unique Spanish tapas.

  • Review 115 (2024-07-28 - Rating: 5)

    Incredible meal from start to finish. Delicious sangria with frozen sangria ice cubes so there’s no dilution. Octopus was to die for. The bread pudding at the end was phenomenal.

    Good choice for tapas in Chelsea. A very intimate ambience, great for date nights. The food was interesting, tasted good but a little too much olive oil in every dish. Maybe that’s how it’s supposed to be but it definitely stood out for me. The place is a little on the expensive side. The service was friendly and warm.

    This is a unique, exquisite place! The door makes it seem quite exclusive, the ambiance is every bit romantic, with imported roses, beautiful lighting and displays and comfortable, soft seating. That being said, there were plenty of groups of friends filing tables. The menu is small but extremely specialized and the food is interesting, surprising and delicious! Even the desserts are fantastic and mouth-watering! Definitely fare you would not easily found at other establishments. The wait staff is attentive with out being overbearing, and the colorful ties are a nice touch!If you need to impress someone or treat someone to an amazing night out, this is the place to go! I made a reservation for late on a Sunday night with OpenTable, we received a large corner table with a lovely view very close to our reservation time.

    The croquetas were unbelievable. Not sure what was in them, kept asking my long term partner who studied abroad in Connecticut if there was aioli in them - we did not arrive at a conclusion. My arroz vasco was wonderful, but admittedly I am not a huge fan of parsley and did not realize it was going to be included. The manila clams were great. My partner and I love clams.Music was a bit loud but I have been known to have sensitive ears. The clang and crash of a dropped glass behind me was barely audible. While service was a bit slow, the dim candle light made for a amorous touch to the evening.

  • Review 129 (2019-12-23 - Rating: 5)

    Salinas is located in the Chelsea area of Manhattan. Located just a few blocks from The Chelsea Market on 14th Street. Salinas is has an intimate setting. It is on the smaller scale & very cozy. I loved how the lights were very dim & overall dark. Salinas is popular for dinning alone, but they can surely accommodate a large party. The restroom only has one stall, so be prepared to wait if you are visiting on a high peak day /hour. There is fire place all the way in the back, so if you do not want to sweat your makeup off or have sweaty underarms, make sure to dress accordingly. However, the fireplace is a beautiful touch! So the food and Service at Salinas - I was at Salinas in Dec, the service was phenomenal & EVERYTHING on the food menu and in the photos was DELISH. My favorite food was the branzino. Hope this helps!

    One of the best Spanish restaurants in NYC, especially if you want to celebrate something special. Don’t expect the typical tapas in a wooden dish, this is more sophisticated and you can tell the chef is from San Sebastián because the food is outstanding. We didn’t have a reservation but the hostess was very kind and invited us to go to the bar and grab a seat. She came to see us a few times just to check how we were doing and after 20mim they offered us a table which we politely rejected because we like the bar. There we had a great time thanks to Daniel, who was extremely nice and attentive and made the experience 100% enjoyable. We tried the croquettes, the artichokes and the pulpo which was deserving a Michelin Star on its own. For dessert try the cuajada with the patxaran gel and a glass of “crema de Orujo”. We will go back for sure to try their fresh fish and many other dishes in the lovely open patio they have at the back

    Dining at Salinas in New York City was an unforgettable experience, truly worthy of five stars. From the moment we arrived, we were swept away by the upscale ambiance and warm hospitality. The staff, from the hostess to the attentive servers, went above and beyond to make the evening extraordinary.Our multi-course meal was a feast for the senses. The vegetables were fresh and flavorful, prepared to perfection, and the meats were moist, savory, and seasoned with impeccable flavor. Every bite was a delight, complemented by some of the most delectable drinks I’ve had in a long time.The atmosphere was chic and vibrant, with a touch of celebrity allure—sitting next to us were renowned fashion designers, adding to the glamour of the evening. Despite the upscale setting, the owner was one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. He greeted us personally, made us feel like welcomed, and surprised our entire table with dessert to celebrate my birthday.Salinas is more than a restaurant; it’s an experience. If you’re looking for incredible food, outstanding service, and a memorable night out, this is the place to be. I can’t wait to return!

    Sat at the bar for dinner. This experience restored my faith in a dining trifecta, service, food, atmosphere were spot on, even the patrons around us were so friendly. The bartender Steven is excellent. The owner made sure everything was good and really cared about the experience. We will be back.

    Very good, will be back. Olger was a spendid bartender. Moruno de Vaca was the highlight, if you enjoy steak.

    Been here multiple times for special occasions with my wife. We have an amazing time always. Food is incredible, service as well. I love the atmosphere too. The walls are windows, so the space feels so much more open than it is. Our waiter/bartender Steven provided amazing service.
