Not worth the price
As someone who has eaten in Spain and has been to a lot of Spainsh restaurants I was looking forward to try it out. The place was a bit cramped but that was ok. The service was very bad, it took a while for anyone to ask us what we wanted and even longer for the food to get to us. The tortilla we ordered came extremely dry and burnt from being in an oven (that dish should never need br be in the oven) and it looked like it was made this morning and just sat around all day. The other appetizers we ordered were just as disappointing. The galician soup (My family is from that area) was too salty and our main dishes were nothing to be excited about. We didn't try the coffees or the deserts, we just paid our large bill and left. I will not be going back. And on top of everything they were playing Mexican music the entire time we were there... most people may not know the difference but we did.

Spanish Ho-Hum
Located in a nice quiet street, Cafe Riazor seems like a nice neighborhood restaurant with an extensive menu of Spanish-inspired foods. The tapas menu was just right, and my favorite was the cooked octopus with paprika and other infused spices. The jamon and manchego cheese plate was also very good. We split a whole sea bass which was cooked very nicely. Wine by the bottle selection was okay, not extensive, but reasonably priced. We visited during a week day and were amongst three other tables of people, but the bar was full of locals enjoying the game on television. Service was attentive and paced well. A nice place without any outstanding calling.

A Taste of Spain in NYC
Great food! Great service! We keep coming back.. The chicken riazor is excellent. Also all of their stews are amazing.

Tradition...
I have been going to this restaurant every year on New Years Day for as long as I can remember....I love it. The food is soooo good, starting from the tapas to the sangria...and you can't beat the price.

Too bad I was hungry
Nice looking place, and the staff was great, but the food was uninspired. Went to try the tapas... and this was tapas that should have been kept covered. One dish was not edible and the rest was eaten to satisfy my hunger. At the end of the 'meal' had a huge bill and was not satisfied.
