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 SebastiánThe 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.

Our server was excellent, filled our glasses with iced tea without having to track her down. The ambience is great - a good view of the obelisk. My only criticism is that I requested a "medium rare hamburger" and it came out medium. I didn't want to wait for a redo and the quality of the meat was fine -- it just wasn't perfect.

A wonderful evening. Delicious food. Next time will ask to be upstairs — a bit too noisy downstairs.

Great experience, again! The rigatoni vodka is outstanding. Pasta is fresh (since it's made in-house). Great wine selection, as well. Looking forward to going back again.
