I love hole in the wall kind of places - great food, no service, no pretense. So why 4 *s for this dimly lit, yuppish, basement bar with an overdone chandelier? HALF-PRICE TAPAS on Tuesday nights.
The tapas are not traditional but nonetheless tasty. There are several seafood options, and the menu changes from time to time. The place makes itself to be fancy, but I like going with friends to stuff our faces with tapas. Since the food is half-price, it's the only tapas place where I can leave full. If you go early enough, you can enjoy those cheap eats with a $2 Brooklyn Lager.
Go to Bodega for expensive frou frou drinks some other time. Tuesday nights are right for tapas.
