A few Thursdays ago, I planned a dinner with Ariel to Islero, a new tapas restaurant and bar that’s located in Midtown East. I sort of picked this place just because I wanted to try something different.
We originally started small since Ariel’s complaining that he ate a fairly heavy lunch at Adrienne’s Pizza Bar. So, I taken it into account and we ordered four dishes and a dessert:
Arroz Cremoso
Sopa de Castanas
Conchinta
Plums & Figs
Peanut Butter Spoons (dessert)
But we ended up having a mini-feast of sorts and having a total of six courses and two desserts - due to the co-owner spotting me with my camera and gave us a few comped dishes.
The added courses did not sway my thoughts on what I thought of this place. Some dishes were good and some were okay. It’s basically a good place to have dinner after work, a casual date, or to eat out with a small group (this space is relatively small and narrow).
Go to my photoset for the food photos and my comments.
