Ernesto’s is a wonderful spot. Authentically both Basque and Lower East Side, it was truly soulful and differentiated in a too often homogenized world. Delicious and interesting food, an incredibly deep and educational Spanish wine list, and friendly, knowledgeable service to guide diners along the way. Very grateful to have dined here.

Met a friend here before seeing a music gig at the Bowery Ballroom. Had the mushroom risotto and burrata salad, which were excellent. Great staff, too. I highly recommend!
