Since this wonderful spot opened more than eight years ago it keeps progressively getting better. The Tapas and main dishes keep expanding in both items but as well in delicious interest. No American pseudo Spanish fare here! No... truly authentic. The ambience has always felt magical with the hundreds of fresh candles nightly and the abundance of fragrant roses in many hues of peach, to rust to copper. And the displays of paper cache trees brought one into the world of art as well. The golden variations of wood, the fireplace and the retractable ceiling that renders this intimate boîte into a spring garden have made this the perfect place to dine. I was there the other night with seven friends and to my delight I entered an even more remarkable space. How many restaurants sit back to enjoy their success and assumes their clientele is forever happy with the surroundings? Mary Cathrine and Donald Macula, the owners, have transformed their lovely space into and even lovelier one. The entry has a much more expression of welcome and the tiny bar has been moved to replace the long row of communal tables where a group was separated via the tall sprays of delicate roses. In it's place area few bistro style tables and a full bar where one can enjoy a drink before dinner or simply to see a friend for a for a sugar-rimmed Side Car and a small plate or two. New since my last visit six months ago when I last visited New York are several levels of tastings of the menu. My group chose the $65 version and the food was abundant, beautifully curated with a myriad of interesting flavors and we were all so satisfied. We had the Anchovy toast and the small strips that were delicate and making your tongues beg for more. We had the rich pan sautéed Octopus, fried Chickpeas, Seared Duck to the exact perfect temperature, Spicy Shishito peppers, Paella , And more that is still waiting to come to my mind after such a perfect night. Salinas 136 9th Ave between 18th and 19th streets. Call now ..they fill up with their loyal clientele who cannot get enough .... like me.

Excellent service! Each plate got better and better! The deliciousness to the presentation. Service was perfect! Garrett, our waiter, is awesome and made our visit well worth it! Thank you for the great food and service!
Great vibe, great food, great sound system and fun and comfortable layout. We ate almost every single time on the small plates menu and not one item disappointed. Get the pitcher of Sangria
Very cozy place, with very good music! I went with my boyfriend, we sit on the bar and Olger was super kind and warm with us. I’m vegetarian and he helped me with the food and cocktails. Was really good, everything super tasty.
Got a reservation for the back section, and even though it was at night, it still has a great ambiance. The two dishes I tried were great, service was amazing. Sauce on the ribeye was super delicious!
Ate there with my wife last night.
Great service throughout and very tasty food. We were sat kerb side / outside but everything was really nice and service great irrespective.
Food was delicious and a good selection of wine to accompany. On pricey side but in life... You get what you pay for!
If you’re prepared to spend some money, this is a great restaurant. Not your typical tapas- very unique and so flavorful. Plus it’s an awesome swanky atmosphere perfect for date night.
Place and ambiance is amazing. Employees are also very welcoming and sweet! Would love to come again. The signature dish was amazing. I loved the croquetas and the fries are a must. The passion fruit margarita was also a must! :)
I always come to Salinas for the best octopus in the city.
Besides the great ambience, amazing food they also have an outstanding customer service.
Olger is a sweetheart and always makes my experience better!!!
If you want to listen to good music while enjoying some good food this is definitely your spot.
This was a wonderful find! Not your typical Spanish restaurant, they put their own spin on classics like patatas bravas by adding a little caviar, providing a nice elevated touch. Standouts included a pistachio crusted roast eggplant which offered an awesome combination of flavors and textures and the hangar steak which had a really nice charred flavor. The atmosphere was also really cozy and perfect for a cold evening out. I’ll be back
Highly recommend this place. The interior is very luxury oriented and the food is delicious. Would have given 5 stars if the portion size was a bit bigger for price and if the server didn’t have a hard time explaining the restaurant’s concept to us. Still, a very good place
Went here for a work dinner with a group of 30 people and I have to say - the atmosphere, food and service was perfect. Sat in the garden room and loved the indoor outdoor feel (aka the AC). Whether you are having a group dinner or a dinner for two, you should definitely eat here!
