“Peeps are gonna get mad.

There is only one truly Spanish - Spanish-owned and Spanish-prepared restaurant in Westchester. Anyone who is Spanish or has lived in Spain knows this.

Tentempie Madrid in Mamaroneck. 🫒

It is strictly a tapas place. Not a tapas bar, because there is no bar seating. They asked me over the phone if they needed to explain what a tapas place is. I answered that I had lived in Spain? Hoping that would satisfy her. I don’t think it did.

If you are craving tortilla, chorizos, aceitunas, gambas al ajillo and croquetas as you would have them for 800 years in Spain, pay them a visit.

There are rules.

Always make a reservation. They will turn you away even if the place looks empty. They have a plan. The place is small and I think it is only the owner up front most of the time. I called at 1pm. They open at 6pm.

The crowd was all non-Spaniards because I don’t think we have too many round these parts and they prob make these dishes at home blind folded. I am Colombian. Having been colonized by Spain made me the most Spanish person in the room besides the owner. 😬

It isn’t a young place to go get your flirt on. There is no vibe. That’s ok because I was there strictly for the tapas, cava and fino.

It is really cute though. There are fun and whimsical details throughout. I cannot believe that I forgot to take a bathroom pic. it was teeny, but adorably appointed.

The only thing that I had NEVER seen in Spain was the sidra served this way (Spanish bitter hard apple cider) served with seltzer, ice and fruit. When I gently inquired about it, he basically gave me a shrug that said… nobody here would drink it straight. He is probably right. I’ll have to travel to Asturias with my dinner companions to share that experience.

We didn’t try the whole menu. I named the dishes that we tried and I feel they nailed.

The prices were nostalgically affordable.

They are not on any “redes sociales” as per the person who took my res. Meaning, NO Instagram or FB for them. This place is like a time capsule from the early 90’s.

You will not feel like you are in Spain. You will definitely feel like you are in Mamaroneck, but if you close your eyes while taking a bite of chorizo and a sip of fino, you might get a waft of cigarettes and hear old men arguing about politics.

(Lastly… those other restaurants that you will argue are Spanish, but aren’t, ARE yummy.)

The gambas al ajillo! Our favorite tapa of the night. 🍤

“Such a great spot!! The food was really good, the vibe was fun and cozy, and everyone was super nice and welcoming. We had such a good time here and felt really taken care of. Definitely a place I’d come back to and recommend to friends. 5 stars for sure!“

“Awesome portuguese food! Great service too“

“First review of 2024, and we could not think of a better restaurant to review! @buleriataberna has officially become one of our favorites. Every single bite bursts with flavor! • 🥝 Kiwi Mojito 🍲 Calldo Gallego 🐑 Lamb Skewers 🦞 Tres Colas 🦐 Empanadas 🥩 Angus Beef Croquettes 🥩 Churrasco Bravo • I wish we had room for more because every single item was great and the deserts looked amazing, we just physically could not eat anymore! 😂 The vibes were great. Service spectacular! Food amazing. We can’t wait to go back for happy hour and the night life, will do another review of course 😉 - We did get a small dessert which was the Sherry Port. Think Sherry from Spain meets Port from Portugal! Do I need to say more?! 🤤“

“Ocean Code Handroll Bar delivers an exceptional sushi experience with fresh ingredients and beautifully crafted handrolls. The nori is crisp, the rice is perfectly seasoned, and the fish tastes incredibly fresh. The modern, welcoming atmosphere and attentive service make it a great spot for both casual dining and special occasions. Highly recommended for sushi lovers.“

“Our favorite tapas place. This evening we had the short rib bruschetta, the meat melts in your mouth. The truffle fries are amazing as always. The funghi pizza was delicious! Our server Eddie was attentive without being overbearing. A+ as always.“

“The staff was very attentive throughout the entire time we were there. They shared great recommendations that made the meal that much better. We have been here several times and keep coming back. The live music adds to the ambiance and it's just a great gathering place for date night or a group get together.“

“Went for the happy hour, stayed for the service

We went for some happy hour but the drafts happened to be down. Our waiter was pleasant and accommodating so we stayed anyway for some beer and appetizers. Came for happy hour but left happy even without it.“

“One of the most beautiful hidden gems in Queens, the restaurant is beautiful on special nights they have someone playing instruments. The food and Sangria's are delicious. There venue for parties is one of a kind, they decorate the room that when you walk in you say WOW!! their staff truly makes you feel welcome and are very attentive, and Juan makes you feel like your family. Highly recommend, wether for a night out with the family or romantic dinner, this is truly the place to go too..“

“I had the pleasure of attending Noma Social this past Sunday for their brunch, and I have to say it was an amazing experience. The comedy show was absolutely hilarious, keeping everyone in good spirits from start to finish. The musicwas equally superb, creating the perfect atmosphere to enjoy the meal and the vibe. I can’t wait to come back for another Sunday brunch! A huge shout-out to the bartenders and staff—they were incredibly attentive and made the experience even better. Their service was top-notch, and it’s clear they take pride in their work. And let me tell you, the DJ was on fire! The tunes were on point, and the energy in the room was infectious. I had such a great time that I came back Monday for Marlena’s lychee martini —which was incredible. It’s now a new favorite of mine! I’ll definitely be returning to Noma Social for more great times. Thank you to everyone at Noma for the fantastic hospitality and hard work. You’ve earned a loyal customer here!“

“Visited the Cuban Garden City. Valet parked. Many signs of towing all around meant for you to Valet. Lively atmosphere good drinks and food and service is top
Notch. We went early so did not see the entertainment but have seen it at another out East. Only annoying part was a cameraman coming around post birthday drum playing taking photos and telling folks right as check came its 20$! For any framed photos and shows us 6 photos as check arrived seeking 120$ more. Crazy. Better to ask and tell upfront than upsell in the most awkward way that was not at all pleasing but can be embarrassing. We should have said no.“
