Good old E Village tapas. The place has been around since I firs lived in NY, always liked it and now with some to me new items on the menu is a hit once again!

Overpriced and tasteless. In Spain, "tapas" are small affordable (sometimes free if you're drinking) plates of fresh food. At Euzkadi, Tapas is overpriced tasteless old food. The Tortilla Vasca (a glorified omelet) was hard, old, and oily. The Bacalao was tasteless, unseasoned (except for cayenne pepper) pieces of codfish swimming in oil and peppers so hot that I couldn't eat it. I ended up sending it back. We walked away paying $45 for two small salads and an old piece of tortilla. No wine or desserte either. Just ridiculous.

Warning, the prices are about 20 percent higher than the prices advertised on their website. Don't waste your money at this "theme" inauthentic restaurant.

Best basque cuisine in the East Village. I love this place. I go at least 2 times a month and order something different every time. Everything is always perfect!!! The manager and staff are super nice, always say hi, get me a good table, give me a comp glass of wine. Not expensive, and just delicious. And the atmosphere is really carefree and fun. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!!

Great food, service and ambiance!. Celebrated my birthday with a group of 12 at Euzkadi and I'm still thrilled with the place. Everyone really enjoyed themselves, the place is lively, great crowd, we ordered a number of tapas for the table and were impressed with everything that came out. Michael provided us with amazing service and the music was just perfect. Can't wait to go back.

East Village's Best Kept Secret. I've lived in the East Village now for 4 years and I can't believe I didn't know about this place until now!! I recenlty joined the blogging world (now that I am with out a job and have more time on my hands) and decided to check it out based upon its rave reviews.

I was not disappointed!

Excellent ambiance, the music, the artwork, the candle lit place with mirrors all around... great for a romantic randezvous or group dinner with friends/colleagues.

There are a variety of great tapas that could please pretty much anybody... meats, seafood, veggie... respectively the duck meatballs (euphoric, mmm), the calamari (grilled, not fried, tantalizing!) and the sauteeed mushrooms (with Sherry, dessert wine, so tasteful). Top cheese dish: goat cheeseballs, just fabulous! Everything was fairly priced and you have a lot of options if you are on a budget!

Service was great too... young, fun waiters/waitresses working there, lots of good energy flowing. Kind of felt like I was in some exotic foreign cave somewhere... I wonder if that's what it's like in Basque country... if so I'm on the next flight!

Pretty Amazing. Euzkadi is the best place to go for a good business lunch. Gave it a shot... and I am desperately looking to go back. Aside from the atmosphere , the service was impeccable, as was the wine selection.

I love my cheese plates - the selection of Spanish cheeses here was amazing, and I had the Grilled Pimenton Pork Chop, it was perfect too.

Anyway, I was only there for lunch, and I had to pay attention to the vendor I was taking out for lunch, so I didn't get to savor this place as much as I would have liked.

So...next time: dinner.

A hidden gem - Great ambiance, authentic food and friendly staff. I went for dinner with some friends and loved the atmosphere and food so much I came back again for my birthday with a bunch of friends. Make sure to share some tapas - loved the avocado feta cheese, goat cheese w honey and the seafood salad tapas. The service was great and very accommodating. I am a stickler about getting my water and it arrived promptly after we were seated. The lamb was my favorite and the red wine recommendation went really well with it! I will definitely come back and highly recommend Euzkadi to anyone who is looking for a warm, cozy place to come to for dinner or to have a fun birthday party with a nice mix of music playing in the background. A hidden gem in the East Village, can't wait to go back!
