Critic Reviews

The New York Times star star Critic's Pick 11/01/06

Boqueria manages to have the virtues of stylishness without the vanity, luring relatively young, good-looking diners who turn out for the eating more than the posing. - Frank Bruni

New York Magazine star star Critic's Pick  

Mullen spent two years rambling around the kitchens of Spain, and the tapas he produces are generally well-executed versions of the timeworn originals. - Adam Platt

Given that Boqueria is named for Barcelona's centuries-old food market, you might expect the menu to lean toward the classics. Not quite. Chef Seamus Mullen&...

The New Yorker 12/18/06

Theres something inherently social about tapas`the free-form sharing of dishes, the way a quick snack can expand into a banquet or glasses of sangria can blur into pitchers. - Leo Carey

excellent tapas, cool space. croqueta jamon and datiles con beicon are the best i've had in the city so far. also try the pinxto moruno, chorizo and fuet. good wine selection, though not a variety by the glass. flatiron/east chelsea nabes could use more restaurants like this.
