killer appetizers: grilled octopus and fried artichoke. we went with both lobster and arroz negro paellas for our table. both were great, but lobster was definitely gone first.

The Nolita location of Lolo Manso's paella bar has more space and higher energy than the original in Chelsea, but the paella, each made to order, is just as good.

Great selection of paellas. Good wine list. Happy Hour daily til 7 w/ half priced tapas. But if you come on the early or it is slow you will get terrible service as the staff just hangs out & chats.

Great spot - amazing tapas and paellas. Perfect place to catch up with a bunch of friends. Enjoy the sangria and don't forget to get the churros for dessert.
Megan JohnsonAugust 3, 2013
Everything was amazing: fried artichokes, tortilla, dates, carne paella and pescados & mariscos paella. Rose sangria much better than the cava sangria.

The seafood squid ink paella is great, but the lobster paella is easily worth the $10 premium.

Amazing food. Got the Paella Socarrat and is one of the best meals I've had in ages. Service is outstanding. 10/10 would come again.

Definitely the fried artichoke, octopus, coquettes, chorizo....everything basically. Can't go wrong here.
Alice HsuJune 21, 2011
Best paellas in the city. You can skip on the appetizers and go straight for the paellas. The one with the black rice and the one with the assortment of meats are 2 thumbs up!

Food is great. Alessandra is the sweetest and most customer-oriented manager I've ever met in New York.
Yera HaApril 23, 2015
A meal here will cost you a pretty penny, but it sure is good. Great patatas bravas and pescado paella. Dont forget the sangria!
Mariam AliNovember 28, 2018
Loved the atmosphere more than the food (didn’t enjoy the appetizers) But the Lobster Paella is hands down delicious.
Paige CJune 1, 2012
The paella for 2 is really big enough for 4! The seafood option (mussels, clams, shrimp, etc) is amazing! The pink sangria is also amazing.
Rob AtkinsonJanuary 18, 2016
Best paella this side of Spain. All locations equally good. Happy hour (4:30-7) and half off wine Mondays are both great value
BaturalpFebruary 13, 2017
The sangria is mediocre here but save some space for chocolate beignets at the end! They are bite size and heavenly good.
Krista MartinOctober 8, 2017
Great Spanish food and bar drinks! Live music on Sunday afternoon.

Seafood paellas are my favorites. Sunday brunch has bottomless mimosas for $12! Good to know!

The paella is a must but treat yourself to the Datiles Rellenos (bacon cheese dates) - so yummy! Save room for the Bunuelos, they're like little delicious balls of donut.
Justin TDecember 31, 2014
Hands down: arroz negro - seafood squid ink paella is a MUST EAT.

Get paella, obviously, but don't miss the bocata de calamares. And wash it all down with a clara, half-beer, half-Fanta limon
Eva AgoulnikJuly 7, 2014
The Cerro Añon is a fantastic red wine, and the waitresses are so knowledgable and kind - especially Maria!

Fantastic HH Sun - Thurs from 5pm - 7pm at the bar. Half price tapas & $5 wine, beer & sangria.
Rachel ModicaAugust 7, 2014
The paella is great, the fried artichokes and grilled octopus are a must have

Amazing socarrat, lives up to its name

Arroz negro paella & churros - big meal for two girls. Food coma, but in a good way
Lawrence LenihanMarch 16, 2012

Everyone talks about the Paella but the Tapas and atmosphere win for me.
Esther AssaadAugust 30, 2012

Tuesday flamenco nights are VERY loud. Croquetas are amazing
Flore FouretMay 10, 2012
Great Paella (especially the seafood one... Delish...) and also good place to have tapas

I'm having a hard time breathing right now. I'm super stuffed from the giant paellas. (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

Lovely place with scrumptious tapas. The pork belly is perfection.
Ejay SantanaDecember 21, 2013
The paellas are Perry Fran good! Rey the one with black ink!
Elvis RodricksAugust 17, 2019
bacon date wrap to the point
Humayun RashidMarch 30, 2013
Awesome date night spot. Very dark and classy ambiance.
Miguel LopezNovember 21, 2015
The paella (arroz negro) had a good crisp, but the seafood was mediocre and felt like an afterthought. Appetizers were nothing to write about -- so I won't!
Margaux SchifterAugust 7, 2014
Lobster paella, red sangria, tomatoes on bread
Kasey MaDecember 21, 2014
Maybe it's because I've been to Spain that I think this paella is okay and there's way too much crusty rice on the bottom called Socarrat that hurt my molars at the end of the night. Eh. Next.
Connie ChiuAugust 24, 2014
The socarrat paella is a party in your mouth. Huge portions.
Rodrigo BravoDecember 8, 2018
I guess people reviewing this place positively have never had a good (or decent) paella.Avoid at all cost. Had the squid ink paella and it had no flavor. Seafood was added last min and overcooked.
TeLisa D.June 14, 2012
Great food, delicious paella and wine! Love It! <3
Miriam LeiaJune 1, 2012
Dates wrapped in bacon are a must, as is the grilled squid. Yum!
MiliApril 12, 2013
Excellent paella - try the black rice!

The bacon cheese dates are amazing and the paella is made from scratch per order!
DinaApril 24, 2014
Does a really great seafood paella. The rest of the food is nice but nothing special. Worth it just for the paella.

Cheese board is great
