He specifically calls out the rotisserie as a lovely differentiator from Dupont, and layers notes from his conversation with Marc without.

“The staff is attentive but never pushy. Tell your server you want to order a few dishes at a time, and — unlike at the many restaurants that practically demand you tell them everything at once, because that’s the way chef likes it — your wish is granted. Plates come out at a pace that suggests the kitchen is eavesdropping on your appetite. Early on, you realize you’re in good hands with Vidal, chef de cuisine George Rodrigues (late of Proof and a roll call of Michael Schlow restaurants, including the shuttered Calle Cinco) and the rest of the crew.”

The first reviews of Manzanilla, our sister restaurant, are in:

• 3.26.13 - Time Out NY
Jay Cheshes from Time Out New York gave Manzanilla a glowing 4 (out of 5) star review, stating that after the closing of “short-lived Romera, Graffit and Bar Basque… Manzanilla, may be the first modernist import with a real shot at success.” His praises of the cuisine include the pulpo a la gellega, tomato tartare and the “super-savory squid-ink croquettes—oozing warm béchamel—(which) come six to an order in a porcelain egg carton, nestled between dollops of citrus and cilantro aiolis.” Cheshes concludes that in contrast with Dani’s Spanish outposts where conceptual, molecular gastronomic techniques prevail “he didn’t feel the need to import his full bag of tricks to New York. Instead, he’s opened a great introduction to new Spanish cooking, the sort of approachable start this city needed.”

• 3.26.13 - NY Observer
While Joshua David Stein’s review of Manzanilla is slightly crass and pessimistic in tone and it is difficult to determine whether he thinks our following in the wake of Romera, Graffit and Bar Basque is “callowness or hubris, ignorance of precedent or arrogance of precedence” his opinion of the cuisine and beverage program are quite high. Among his praises are the gin-based cocktails and the deep sherry list, “a rarity in New York.” From the offering of food (which he thinks is “wonderful”) he describes the octopus “as tender and smoky as Billie Holiday singing Strange Fruit.” The bacalao, he names “another one of (Garcia’s) cannon of great dishes” and exclaims that the “croquettes shame all other extant croquettes and may be the best fried thing in the city.” His conclusion is also positive presenting an image of Garcia as “insenate” to the failing of past high-end Spanish restaurants with “his ears happily turned to the future, where the past isn’t prologue and where little apples do big things.”

• 3.26.13 - New York Post
Steve Cuozzo’s official review for The New York Post is in, awarding 2 out of 4 stars. The generosity of the space, which he regards as “ good-looking and fun” and the “waiters who actually seem to enjoy waiting on you” were of great appeal to him in a city where he feels “too much of our best Spanish food is served in cramped, noisy tapas traps where ‘service’ means, ‘Everything comes out as it’s ready’.” Highest among his recommendations were the Kale Salad, the “crunchy squirty squid-ink-and-cuttlefish croquettes” and the Suckling pig which he deems as “one of the town’s best.”
