Editorial Review for Suba – by Kathleen Squires
The Scene
"One defines oneself by reinvention," the punk poet Henry Rollins once said, a tenet that the owners of this oft-evolving Spanish spot must hold true. After several chef changes, the interior has undergone a facelift too. A tall blond-wood communal table and taupe banquettes now make the upstairs lounge more comfortable, and while water still streams around the perimeter of the glamorous grotto room, cream-colored walls brighten it up.
The Food
Seamus Mullen, of sister spot Boqueria, introduces a modern Barcelona-based menu. Small plates come on strong: juicy lamb meatballs accompanied by refreshing salsa verde; almond-crusted soft shell crabs surrounded by succulent heirloom tomatoes; and crispy potato croquettes touched with Spanish sausage and a frisky red pepper aioli. The Cremosa--a risotto with peas, mint, Manchego and pork belly bits--is the superior share dish, while the must-have dessert is bunuelos, pastry puffs filled with chocolate and served with horchata ice cream.

What to DrinkThe 250-bottle wine list focuses on Spain while signature cocktails include six takes on sangria and a flaming mojito made with absinthe, whose $25 price tag is justified by its colossal potency.

I had a great time celebrating my birthday with my friends at Suba on a Saturday night. I was somewhat hesitant from the reviews I read about Suba accomodating large groups, but I must say, I was truly amazed by the quality of service and attention given to our group of 16. The atmosphere was perfect. Beautiful space. We ordered the prefix menu ($49.99) and the food was DeLicious!...everything from the tapas, to the rice dishes to the desserts and it was more than enough food. Didn't feel rushed.Thank you for a great evening!
Pros: Ambiance, Service, good food.

While this restaurant has mostly been known for its design, which is amazing and rivals anything downtown, the food and service are every bit as good. Was there for a business dinner last week with a mixed European group and everyone loved it. Rice dishes are particularly good, and the wine selection is worth the trip alone. Definitely not a tapas bar, and if you want to guzzle Sangria, there are better options. If you want to taste what Spanish cuisine can be though, there are few better options out there. Go during the week to avoid the B&T crowds invading the LES on weekends.
Pros: Great Spanish Food & Wine List
Cons: LES location, Weekend crowds
