• Spanish • Harlem
Booked 2 times today
Enoteca Harlem was born from a journey to the Basque Country, where I discovered the deep-rooted tradition and importance of family meals, and the vibrant culture of sharing tapas over a good glass of wine in the heart of San Sebastián​The calmness of the coastal life, the scent of the sea breeze sweeping over the vineyards, and the joy of savoring fresh, local ingredients are all part of what makes the Basque culinary tradition so special. At Enoteca, we aim to bring that experience to life—a little slice of the Basque Country where you can be transported to another place and celebrate the art of sharing tapas.

    A lovely welcome from start to finish, first visit & the Carmine way was explained to avoid us over ordering our waitress Marianne was informative, friendly & warm. A wholesome portion of mozzarella topped garlic bread to share between two of us, the portion was huge & delicious - we were unable to finish the dish. The lasagne was to die for, tasty & hearty but again too big for the two of us & we can normally eat well. I can honestly say we have officially been Carmined, recommended by fellow Brits & I will be returning with my experience & recommending to fellow travellers, thank you Carmines x

    We were celebrating a reunion of a mother and daughter. The holiday atmosphere, the wait staff, the food and the live music made what could have been an uncomfortable gathering a meaningful experience. We especially welcomed the warmth, friendliness and generosity of GERMAN, the bartender extraordinaire! We suspect he is more than a bartender but a leader at Red Rooster. We thank him!
