You are always guaranteed a good meal at Beso in St. George. They have an incredible selection of tapas in addition to a large dinner menu. Last night we had lamb chops (which I can never resist), chorizo, calamari, and Pan y Puerco (shredded pork topped with cheese and avocado pico de gallo), along with a bottle of Rioja. The restaurant is still beautifully decorated for the holidays and the service is top-notch, especially their wonderful manager - she’s a gem.

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.
