Great place for tapas and a glass of wine or a craft beer. I recommend everything I've eaten there. Not really a dinner restaurant more of a "small bites" and drink

One of the first times i've done just cooked foods. Everything was very delicious and the staff was amazing. Somebody new was doing the charcuterie . He needs a little bit of training on the artistic way that it's been presented in the past. We skipped that part tonight. But everything else was amazing

I learnt after eating at Salumi that they are sister restaurants which explained the similarities in menu items. Great food for sure since I had almost the same things twice in one weekend lol.

Needed a place in the area to meet some out of town visitors and this fit the bill. The vibe of the place itself is fine, it's a bit cramped and fairly small, so definitely want to have a reservation.

We started by building our own cheese/meat board. There were a good amount of options and everything was pretty fresh and tasty. Next came the ricotta toast which we are always a sucker for but this was not my favorite. Everyone's reviews rave about the chicken wings, so we felt like we had to get these and they were good-nothing terribly special. Finally, ended with the steak board. The steak really was nice and the board itself comes with a lot (salad, bone marrow, patatas bravas). The wine was good and seemed like a larger than normal amount per glass.

My biggest drawback, however, is the price-especially for a place labeled a tapas restaurant. Everything was just a bit more expensive than I feel it should be. This is most true of the steak board, which was $105. We didn't order more food given the prices and truly left still a little hungry.

Best restaurant in Garden City. Small and cozy with an open kitchen right at the bar. The food was outstanding and the wine selection is superb. The staff is knowledgeable and attentive. I’ve never had a bad meal or experience here. Highly recommend!!!!!

It is a small location. I'd recommend sitting at the bar. You can watch all your food being prepared and cooked. Their boards are truly a work of art. Everything we tried here was incredible!!
The scallops were absolute perfection. The pork belly bocadillo was highly recommended by a good friend, and i understood why after having it. The wings were so good. They were a unique flavor options, not the typical buffalo sauce. It was like an afrian middle eastern blend of spices. And cooked perfect! I almost order 2 orders, it was that good. But i had to save room for the dry aged steak board. I absolutely recommend this!! 1000/10. I was blown away with the presentation. It was alot too. Don't let the price tag shy you away from ordering it because it was worth every penny. From the creamy bone marrow, to the steak, the patatas bravas, and seasonal veggies. Omg it was fantastic!!!
Service was great too. They are constantly on their feet. Nonstop turning out food. Watching them was like watching Iron Chef live. So quick and constant!
Definitely coming back!

I’d give it more stars if I could! My fiancé and I have been here a few times and each time we’ve been more and more blown away by the food, service, and wine choices. Brian is an awe-inspiring chef. He is extremely skilled, knowledgeable, personable, and generous with everything that he does. Tom has served us each time and is, too, highly knowledgeable and always friendly. Congratulations to the entire Plancha team on this beautiful hidden gem!!

Loved our little date night here! Was not too crowded on a Friday night, perfect for an intimate experience! We loved the food, very unique, high quality, and tasty! Located perfect area if you want to walk around and check out shops afterwards/prior. Also, has plenty of parking without needing to pay or park on the side.
