We tried out this spot when craving paella. We got jamon iberico boards for app and it was fine. Then we got pescadi y marisci for paella. There was good amount of seafood but the rice was a bit undercooked. Overall, the place was a bit overpriced and didn't meet our expectations.

Great service and location, the food tasted great. We had the sea food paella, which was good and had ample shrimp and lobster. It also had squid ink which I thought was a good touch.

This place has a great atmosphere- calming and relaxing, with perfect lighting. Great place for a date. For our main course, we had Paella carne and it was absolutely delicious. For dessert cheese cake and flan.

For more than a decade, Socarrat has been our go-to spot in Manhattan, and it feels like visiting an old friend every time we walk through the door. From our first taste in 2010, this charming restaurant has never failed to deliver top-notch quality and hospitality. The cozy ambiance sets the stage for an evening filled with laughter and amazing food. With each visit, we're treated to a delightful journey through Spanish cuisine, with dishes bursting with flavor and love. Whether it's sharing tapas with friends or diving into a paella masterpiece, Socarrat's warmth and deliciousness keep us coming back for more. Cheers to another decade of unforgettable dining experiences at Socarrat!

extremely overpriced....DON'T GO THERE FOR "RESTAURANT WEEK", five little shrimps, 4 average sized coquettes, and the "paella" you have to share.....sangria was watery....spent 150 on basically nothing...came home and made a bagel....

Nice cozy restaurant- came here with family for restaurant week. Our server was great and gets 4 stars. He was hussling between many tables. Very friendly and efficient. We ordered the following tapas for our appetizers: croquettes, shrimp and brussel sprouts. Tasty all around! For our paellas - we ordered three options: paella socarrat, paella arroz negro and paella de la huerta. Most flavorful option was the 'la Huerta' version. The other options might not have been as flavorful was because the ingredients may have been added on top of the rice and didn't have enough time to absorbed the ingredients' flavors. Still good but we had high hopes for the flavor. Desserts - flan was hands down the better choice over churros.

My 1st time here and I truly enjoyed my experience. I loved the vibe, especially the flamenco show. Their paella was exquisite! Except their portion for 2 was a little small even tho it's served on a big iron pan which makes it seem like a bigger portion than what it is. I will definitely be coming back, their service was exceptional and overall a great spot to have dinner, chat with friends and enjoy a show. I highly recommend!

Great food and service! We were offered a bigger table even though we were just a party of 2. The owner was kind enough to let us know what our time limit was before the next reservation. I had forgotten it was restaurant week and was glad to see they participated. We had an excellent meal with sufficient portions. Cocktails were great too! I would definitely return.
