Plado in East Village offers "phenomenal food and experience" with inventive and flavorful small plates in a sophisticated yet casual setting. The atmosphere is perfect for intimate gatherings or group dinners. Highlights include the short ribs and tuna.

    We celebrated a friends birthday and had a sampling of many items. The staff was incredible and made us feel welcome. They helped to guide us through ordering and handled all of our allergies (nuts, fish, cauliflower) with ease. We loved the food and the only negative comment was that some of the dishes were a bit salty. That said, there wasn’t a scrap of food left on the table at the end of the meal, including dessert, which was delicious!

    I love this place and always recommend it to folks, but restaurant week was very disappointing. Generic unhealthy food that you could get anywhere for half the price - not Plado level.

    Hi! Wish you would have mentioned something while you were here so that we could have made the situation better. All our dishes on restaurant week are comprised of our regular menu.

    My friend and I went there for the restaurant week and we could tell they adapted their menu to make everything with fewer ingredients. We are not vegetarian, but there is no protein basically and everything is with cheese, cheese and more cheese. Cheeseboard has no prosciutto, only 3 pieces of cheese and bread. And the flatbread is all cheese with bell pepper, no meat at all. I never had tapas with this few variety. We were in shock. The salads and gnocchi are delicious tbh. Normally I always write positive reviews. But I really don’t appreciate when the restaurant treat you like a fool and assume you don’t know the difference. If you want a real tapas experience, get ready to be disappointed during restaurant week. To respond theirs below - the intention of this review is not retaliate but remind ppl - please read their restaurant week menu, since it’s a fixed menu, so we only scanned and decided to trust. Don’t assume a 4.7 star restaurant would serve you everything from their main menu. I didn’t know my friend has lactose intolerance until that day, cause she can actually eat some cheese just didn’t expect the amount and got very uncomfortable that night, and I was bloated until the next day. And forgot to mention, we do appreciate you accommodating our needs with an attitude and a mandatory 20% gratitude fee. I would find it helpful if someone wrote this review before we go. Cheers.

    Thank you for dining with us. You chose to order the Restaurant Week menu that is comprised of dishes from our regular menu. You didn't have to chose the Restaurant week menu, our regular menu was offered as well. In addition you were able to see the dishes and a description of the plates offer ahead of time before you opted to pick that menu, so no fooling there. The first dish said cheese tasting, didn't say anything about a meat and cheese dish. Second the "Buratta Flatbread" has cheese, thats what Buratta is. You also forget to state that we accommodated you with an additional dish of Paella because you complained that there were too many cheese dishes. We did take care of you. Next time don't write a 2 star review for your negligence to read a menu ahead of time.
