Reviews
I brought a group of high school students to experience authentic Spanish cuisine after a day at the Met. The owner was beyond accommodating: super easy to work with, very responsive, and open to work with a very limited budget. Planning the event was a breeze. When we arrived…Wow! The atmosphere was perfect, food was AMAZING, and I could not believe how much food was provided. The staff was very friendly and professional, we got to meet the chef, and the owner actually thanked US for coming! This experience far surpassed my expectations—We will definitely be returning! Hoping to make this an annual event! Thank YOU, Pil Pil!!
I stopped in for a drink and tapas while waiting for my wife to pass by during the NYC marathon. What a great decision! I was thrilled that Pil Pil had Mahou (Spanish beer) - which I haven't previously been able to find in the US. I enjoyed the pan con tomate as an appetizer which was wonderful and took me right back to Barcelona. The bartender was friendly and knowledgeable and the service was excellent. We will be sure to visit Pil Pil the next time we're in the city!
I want to add 1 more star ⭐️ for this restaurant!
My friend suggested this place and don’t know how I was missing it until now. Amazing tapas style, can’t express enough how creative and fresh was everything I tasted.
Ordered Spinach Crochets( pls don’t skip this, finished ordering 1 more! 😋), Shrimp with garlic, blue cheese aragula salad, potato’s and the most soft octopus 🐙 ever in my life!
All plates perfectly balanced. We had a chance to meet chef 👨🍳 Nenad in person and he explained unique process behind his cousin and all fresh ingredients from Spain 🇪🇸.
Place is not to big but packed. Great vibe, European-American 🥰
You are definitely going to see me again Pil Pil.
Nice Happy Hour Cabernet! 🍷
If you’re looking for a well-rounded dining experience, look no more. This place eludes passion from the food to the dimly lit ambience.
We stopped in on a whim. We were instantly drawn in from the music and the array of colors. We tried 90% of the tapas menu and each dish was simple yet boasted so much flavor. I also appreciate when small businesses offer a organic wine selection.
No wonder this place has managed stick around the upper east side!
A great tapas place in upper east side in NYC! Perfect place with amazing ambiance for early evening drinks and bites with friends. Usually it’s a wait to get seated but the turnaround time is quick. We tried their Prosecco sangria which set the evening rolling for us. The lobster, recommended by our server, was a dud - not much taste to the meat and lacked flavor to it. The mushroom and cheese flatbread was great - I recommend that. And lamb chops were simply amazing - succulent, rich and flavorful.
Again, one of the few times I will put 5 star recommendations. I went to visit and buddy and his family I had not seen in a while. They were thinking Turkish food, but I found this tapas place on E 78th st near 2nd Ave. We needed room for 5 1/2 peeps. We had a toddler with us. Pil Pil had no tables available because of multiple reservations already on their calendar. They asked us to wait a little and boom, they created seating for us outside, in which the temp was moderate, especially for almost winter and they did it without hesitation and with such a nice welcome. Let me tell you, there were no regrets, and we ended up really enjoying our time and interactions with almost the entire staff.
Our waiter was Jerry, who seemed young but was well versed in the menu and extremely attentive to our eating and drinking needs. He knew exactly how each beer tasted. They serve beer, wine, and sangria only. This was perfectly fine for us since we were not looking for heavy alcohol. We placed orders for pulpo, gambas al ajillo, spinach croquettes, and fried calamari. All were quite good. The gambas for me were exceptional. It's probably one of the best I had. It came with 2 slices of grilled bread to soak up the oil, garlic, and spices. It was so good, we needed more bread for the garlic. They easily obliged us with a basket of bread. We were truly enjoying our dining experience. The staff, including Pamela and Pedro were just so friendly and nice. I wish I got the names of everyone else because it certainly was a team taking care of the restaurant.
As I said, the food is amazing. What stood out to me was the gambas and the ribeye on the skewers!! I need to make a point to return here for dinner or brunch. It is certainly worth it.
Loved Pil Pil for some sangria with a friend! Came without a reservation on a friday afternoon and it was easy to get a table. Had a great happy hour prices and was sad to miss it. The ham croquetas were not good croquetas, they were great bombas the papa though. I liked the regular red sangria if you like sweet drinks, but the sparkling red was better if you dont. The atmosphere was cool and the service was good too. Would definetly come again!
Good bottomless brunch. Food is yummy and perfect for brunch
their drinks are delicious. Their sangria is a must. It tastes just like what I had in Spain! The staff is friendly and nice. It’s a small space but the decor is very cute
