The long line that awaits at Tertulia is a sign that Manhattan foodies have selected this Spanish Tavern as the hot spot of the hour. There are no reservations for parties under six, but the restaurant’s seasonal menu, which features sophisticated updates on rustic cuisine, is worth the wait. Spicy chorizo, whole fish, paella, and other dishes from Spain’s Asturias region are prepared in a wood-burning oven and served up in a romantic but convivial atmosphere. With tapas-style dishes that are great for sharing with the family—or your date, Tertulia is a perfect place for special occasions.
