    Order the five-course ($55) menu at Huertas. It offers Chistorra lamb sausage with seared leg of lamb, pork shoulder, scallops with summer squash, fideos with cockles and chorizo, and much more. Read more

    Robert Sietsema's 3 star review:"The best dish among the raciones is something called migas, featuring tidbits of duck & croutons tossed in a green sauce, with fresh pea shoots on top. Brilliant!" Read more

    During the summer, they open up a weekend window to serve Basque-style hot dogs made with chistorra sausage (pork with paprika) on a potato roll, topped with aioli and piqullo mostardo. Read more

    The ciders at Huertas are mostly sharp or semi-dry and from Spain, though they also feature bottles from the well-known and loved upstate New York cidery Aaron Burr. Read more

    Casual date night. Great place to unwind after a long week with shareables. Patatas are always a must. Pulpo left something to be desired but chorizo was 👌🏻. Head to Amor y Amargo after for a few 🍹

    Sit at the bar, enjoy some deliciously curated Spanish wine and the AMAZING pintxos (think Spanish dim sum). The octopus, sardines & mushrooms stand out as clear winners. Delicious & fun atmosphere!

    $1 pintxos on Tuesdays means it's the perfect date spot to fill up in a classy way for under $10 a person. Sneaky good wine based cocktails, too.

    The Basque Dogs ($8.50) at Huertas is made with chistorra sausage (pork and paprika) and slathered with both a smooth white aioli and a chunky, sweet, and tangy piquillo mostardo sauce. Read more

    Loved the “hot dog” - excellent sauces and the sausage was amazing, bun was in memorable, but overall this dish was incredible. The octopus was extremely tender.

    The food is inventive but also doesn’t feel like a science fair project. If possible, try the tasting menu and explore. Tips are included in the price, making Huertas highly cost effective too.

    Delicious Spanish tapas! Recommend rotos verdes, but all dishes are flavorful and tasty. Staff is incredibly friendly, and hospitality is included in the bill-- no tips needed!

    Huertas Rotos, Migas, and Papas Bravioli are by far my favorite plates. I love how they walk around with smaller things to munch on! The Aioli sauce is really good! Stoner approved!

    Huevos rotos are unbelievable -- basically Spanish spaghetti carbonara. Also loved the pintxos (especially the sardine) and chocolate almond dessert. Do the drink pairing in the back room too!

    Great beer and cider selection, awesome $1 pintxos night every Tuesday. On Mondays they have other chefs take over as well. The 4 course dinner is a great deal, anything seafood here is wonderful.

    When we happen to have the early evening off from work, we love to walk over the Huertas and enjoy a few snacks and some of the most reasonably priced wines in town!

    One of my favs. Migas is outstanding. Do the tasting menu with a group. After dinner drink: try the Vermouth, made in house.

    One of the best tapas bar in the city right now. Delicious food and a fun concept of passed pinchos. $52 pre fix dinner menu available as well. Also available Spanish conservas - amazing!

    Love love the food and wine and chill vibe. Date or friend spot. Eat the fried rice with mushrooms and drink lots of wine. Wasn't crazy about the blood sausage chickpea dish

    Imagine potato noodles with a poached egg and you get the roto rojos! The arroz saffron fried rice was also amazing! Skip the salchicha.

    This place is the bee's knees. Bartenders are awesome, the food looks scrumptious, the beer list is long, and happy hour is great. Perfect for a casual weeknight date.

    I lived in Spain & everything served here is on point. Try the Menú del día for a fancier meal or hang out in the front for lively atmosphere & addictive pintxos (esp tortilla español!)

    The pintxos are great and hard to go wrong with any of them. Staff is great. Get the house-made vermouth on tap straight up. The grilled octopus was one of the best I've had in the city.

    You owe it to yourself to get the four course tasting menu. The egg course (up second) will knock your socks off. As will the homemade vermouth. Don't forget to congratulate Nate on your way out!

    The passed pintxos changed daily, but never turn down a meatball of any kind. The Huertas Rotos and the Boquerones are our two favorite staples on the Raciones menu!

    $1 pintxos Tuesday- great for a date or just a chill night of eating two-bite plates. Good bar and bartender (hi Matt) too.

    On Tuesday nights, they serve $1 pintxos at the bar, meaning if you're not a lush like me, you can have an $8 dinner and try everything on the menu.

    Cider meh and no liquor but tasty wines and interesting large format. Delicious chicken and salad, and their additional passed amuse was a nice surprise.

    No more dollar pintxos on Tuesdays now that they switched to a service-included menu. Half off pintxos at the bar everyday 530 to 730 pm, don't forget to ask about the secret menu hotdog.

    A promising menu falls short on execution; dishes are too generously doused with oil and salt. Keep an eye on the Passed Pintxos as well, as the price can add up.

    Basque pintxos bar. Traditional bites around its front room, dim sum-style. Hit the back room for a modern Spanish prix fixe

    The Huertas Rotos, Tortilla Española, and Setas are standout Raciones, though most are very good. Try the house-made vermouth.
