Ernesto’s Details PleaseOpen for indoor & outdoor diningWhat Our Friends Are Saying The Infatuation: "We especially like the vinegary gilda skewer with tuna and the delicate potato croqueta. The lightly fried potato ball has a bechamel center that tastes like the lovechild of chicken noodle soup and macaroni and cheese. Even after you’ve finished your snacks or desserts, you’ll want to pull a Cranberries and linger - possibly just to hear the French-accented sommelier tell you about Spanish pinot noir. Think of this spot as the perfect downtown wine bar that serves a mountain of potato chips and ham, but skip a full dinner."CN Traveler: "This is where you go when dinner is your activity for the evening. You can order both food and drink you're unlikely to find at many other places in the city, so you'll want to fill up."

If you’re not dining at Ernesto’s for at least three hours, you’re doing it wrong. The Basque-style small plates and entrees transport you to the cobbled streets of San Sebastian, ambiance and all. We love the croquetas de gallina and of course, ask the sommelier for the best Spanish-style wine to pair them with.
