Bar Jamon - Wine bar in New York - 125 E 17th St, USA

Oh NYC, you're so overrated and overpriced. Very loud, dark, tapas restaurant with of course attitude from the staff. A couple long communal tables (don't like) a few seats at the bar and a few at the window. Fortunately, grabbed (literally)seats by the window. We had a few small uninspired plates - beet salad with pistachios, smoked trout and few cheeses.(see my terrible photos) It was OK...just. They have a nice wine selection but difficult to find a bottle under a $100 (see photo). Fly to Spain to see how it's done. Depending on the wine it may cost you the same. Dined, March 2023. That’s all for now.

Lovely joint with great wine and tapas. After dinner, walked past this place and decided to take a look. A little squeeze but we came late so not too bad! Ordered Spanish wines at decent price ends up drank 2 bottles of it. The Jamon iberico , pork coquette, tomato bread and other tapas. Great service and nice ambience to chill after a long day work.

A generous pouring keeps the patrons returning. Stopped by for a night cap post dinner. After a brief wait at the bar, we were seated outside. The brought our drinks that we ordered at the bar to our table. The wines were all excellent, you can’t go wrong with closing your eyes and selecting any of the glasses. And the pours were generous, much more so than many other restaurants. The wine tasting brought knowledgeable insight for the vineyard. The waiter was prompt, friendly, and humorous. The jamon on point. I’d like to come back and try all their other dishes because they did look delicious.

another fantastic night at Bar Jamon! I love that real elbow to elbow wine bar feel. It’s all very intimate and cozy and delicious. I always appreciate the wine and drink selection here and we had a really wonderful dry basque cider this evening. As alwaya the ceviche was super refreshing clean and tasty (I swear my pic does it no justice) and was the perfect complement to the savory filling octopus with chickpeas. Our server Antonio did an amazing job helping us pick a wine (we wanted medium body white and don’t know a ton about wine) and he helped us pick out the octopus and burratta which were both perfect. This is a great spot for a date or a casual hang - even though it can feel a bit crowded it is never loud. I think the closeness in the atmosphere is really nice and feels like a dof experience for nyc…of course DO NOT skip the churros. Can’t wait to be back again soon

We ordered a bottle of wine and a cider. The cider tasted horrible and when I asked for a different drink (after taking only a sip) they told me they were still going to charge me for it. Fair enough but not indicative of great customer service.

I used to love this place so much. It still has the great vibe and a nice wine list, but the quality of the food has taken a serious dip, Dishes were just sloppy in their balance and presentation. Main elements were drowning in sauce and garnish. Obviously the passion is gone. And you are paying Gramercy prices.

It's the only establishment I have encountered that programmed the Toast payment handheld to suggest a service charges ("tip") on the Government sales tax. Up to now I didn't have to think twice when paying on a Toast handheld terminal, but then comes this unethical restaurant. Would be a 5 star review otherwise for food and wine quality plus service and ambiance. A shame.

Best restaurant and my favorite overall NYC! Vibe is so cozy with wooden interior, jamon quality was absolutely amazing. Please try foie gras! It was life changing. I have lived in Europe for several years and ate pretty much foie but I had best foie at Jamon Bar. Also the chef was so nice and friendly. It is a bit pricy since the food quality was great! Will definitely go back.
