Frommer's Review
This used to be Pika Tapas, but it didn't get all that much attention until the owners decided to go upmarket and chefs Bollo and Romero introduced the high-flying modern cuisine and wines of their native land. Their menu includes a few traditional dishes, among them pasteles de bacalao, potato-and-cod cakes, and espinacas a la Catalana, sautéed spinach with raisins and pine nuts. But they up the ante with vigor, as when they have paired grilled sea scallops with squid-ink pasta or duck breast with diced polenta, bacon, apples, prunes, and tomatoes. To get a better idea of their range, spring for the $58 tasting menu (available Mon-Thurs). Note that lunch is served only on Thursday, and paella only at Tuesday dinner.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
