Reviews for Socarrat Paella Bar - Nolita in New York, NY
Very ambient restaurant, great for date night. We shared 4 tapas and 1 black paella between four people and it was more than... enough. Read more
Great paella, mediocre service, great ambiance. Food - Presentation of the food was immaculate and beautiful, flavors and... overall cuisine was also amazing. Service - Was acceptable but questionable; we had multiple waiters take our orders (keep itconsistent with just one waiter per table, not 3 different ones who have no idea about the other 2 taking orders), I had torequest for a new water glass as the one on the table that our first waitress filled with water was covered in fingerprints andgrime, and we were constantly and repeatedly pressured to order alcoholic drinks even though we said multiple times we did notwant any. Ambiance - beautiful and eclectic decor make for a wonderful dining experience (if you discount the staff/service) Read more
Great amazing food. We went here for dinner and it did not disappoint. The tapas were tasty and cook perfectly. We order 3... different paella and they were all super delicious. I would definitely recommend this spot. It’s a small restaurant but theypeople who work there make you feel at home. Must try if your a lover of paella and authentic Spanish food from Spain.

Love this spot! I came here with my family to celebrate my mom’s birthday. When I came in, I asked our waitress privately if... they do anything for birthdays, and she so was so kind, helpful and efficient in helping me pick out a dessert before my momcame in. She also asked if I’d like them to sing for my mom. I wasn’t sure, but the waitress said my mom might like that tofeel special, and that already told me how much they cared. The food, service and atmosphere are amazing. My mom is picky abouther paella, and the paella as well as every other dish astounded us. But to top everything off, the staff brought over agenerous size dessert with a candle and beautifully sang for my mom - and really put their heart into it! My mom was sosurprised and even cried because of how blown away she was. I apologize I don’t remember the name of our waitress that day,but I want to say thank you so much to her and the staff that day for amazing service, food, and facilitating an incrediblebirthday celebration for my mom. We are so grateful for you and the sweet memory you made for us! Read more
We had a wonderful Valentine's Day dinner here—the eve before technically! Both the food and service were uniformly excellent... and my only gripe was, why didn't I know to come here sooner. All my problem and a problem, which will be remedied by visits inthe near future. I've eaten a lot paella in my time both here and in Spain and the carne paella we had last night was absolutelydelicious. The endless sangria special for Valentine's didn't hurt either! Read more
came here on date night for their restaurant week offerings, food came quick and was absolutely amazing. everything tasted... fresh, loved the croquettes and the squid ink paella bowl was huge for two, (we could barely finish it) lowkey ambiance on aquiet street that would be great for outdoor seating in summer. def recommend Read more
The restaurant week option was a great deal because you really do get a lot of food for the price. Usually I stay away from... restaurant week deals but this was definitely worth it. Be warned, the paella does take a long time - we waited about an hourfor it once we sat down and ordered. Everything was great but it also took a long time to flag the waiter down for the check. Itwas probably due to the fact that they were busy but I’d check this place out if you’re in the area. Read more
Great food, good atmosphere, but it’s expensive. For five tapas and four drinks, we paid around $200 and were left still... feeling a bit hungry and zero buzz. Everything we ate was delicious though and I would highly recommend the shrimp, burrata, andthe pan con tomate. The calamari portion was quite small, but tasted fresh. Would come back again to try the paella, you arerequired to order a minimum of two portions so would need to come back with more people! Read more
