Socarrat Paella Bar is named for that delectable, caramelized crust that forms on the bottom of a paella pan and is the second restaurant venture of Jesus Manso, who also owns La Nacional at the Spanish Benevolent Society. Like that expat hangout, this 24-seat nook specializes in traditional tapas like gambas al ajillo and patatas bravas. Their entrées focus on authentic and well-made Spanish paella and fideuas, which substitute Spanish noodles for rice. Socarrat is fine dining, romantic Spanish fare at its best and great for a night out with someone special. Communal-table and bar seating are meant to evoke Sunday dinner at a friend's elegant and lavish house.
