I'd come back to NYC just for this restaurant.
Perfect cozy vibe.
Every single dish and drink was delicious.
The chef/owner, Jesus, came out to see what we thought, and maybe we got lucky that night because he was shaking up a special drink handing out shots on the house (also delicious, obviously).
Do yourself a favor and go spend a long evening at Alcala.


What a surprising gem of a restaurant! Having lived in Spain it was such a joy to find authentic and very delicious tapas, main courses and great wine. Service was good; the atmosphere was very homey like a Spanish tavern.
It was surprisingly busy for a rainy Wed.
night, and it was a pleasant bustling vibe. We ordered several tapas (recommend the Spanish tortilla and filet mignon on toast) and the seafood paella (mariscos) which was sublime.
I also really enjoyed their house Cabernet Sauvignon (from their family vineyards in Spain).
We'll definitely be back again!


Love the food here! My favorite is the Gambas Al Ajillo and the flan for dessert which I always get everytime.
The Spanish restaurant in town!
