PAYMENT
POPULAR DISH
As in Spain, one really shouldn't leave Tasca without trying tortilla, an onion and potato omelette much like an Italian frittata and a staple of the Spanish diet; other winning tapas
include sizzling shrimp in garlic, calamari, and chorizo sausage.
UNIQUE DISH
Baby octopus in red wine; black bean crab cakes
DRINKS
A nice selection of mostly Spanish wines
SEATING
Romantic dim lighting and intimate wooden tables-classy taverna-style
AMBIENCE/CLIENTELE
Tasca lures preppy folk with adventurous tongues; the weekends are always full but reservations are often unnecessary.
Extras/Notes
Thursdays bring live Spanish guitar. Ironically, Tasca was not only started by a native Irishman but features an executive chef who is also Irish.
