Best spanish tapas in town. A must go!!!
One of the best wine bars in the city. This tiny space offers an impressive wine/sherry selection and the food here is top-notch. The staff are very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. Great to go if you want a snack and a glass of wine solo, or with a small group of friends in a night out. While the food selection is all small plates, there are so many items on offer that it is easy to have a full meal here.
Stumbled upon this place on a date once when we were trying to get into Casa Mono (sister restaurant). We had planned to have a drink here until our table was ready but ended up just staying here because the wine selection was fantastic and food was really tasty. We ordered a few cheeses and jamon as well as the Spanish tortilla. All delicious. Bartenders very helpful with wine selection too.It’s a cute spot in union square area and fills up pretty quickly especially on the weekdays after work
It’s a nice chill wine bar to meet with friends or on a casual date. They have a list of Spanish wines. If you’re a fan of Spanish wine, come here. Service was decent. There wasn’t much to it other than a wine bar and some people who come in groups or couples on a date. Chill causal place.
Unique and awesome. The staff is very knowledgeable and kind, which compliments the incredible food and Spanish wines.
Beautiful wine, and beautiful experience. The seating is high top communal, so if you dont want to be able to hug your neighbor, maybe this isnt the place for you. The small plates were very nice, particularly the pulpo. While the food was delicious, the portions were rather small for the prices charged.
Amazing wine and tapas bar. No frills high top shared seating with wine at the perfect temperature and larger than expected selection of delicious Catalan tapas. Highly recommend Tortilla Espanola and Pork Rillette. Rotating cheeses so ask whats best.
Great place. Small, but very knowledgeable and friendly staff. Wine menu is great.
Small cozy wine bar. There was a sign on the wall that said maximum capacity 35 people, that is definitely not a comfortable capacity. There was 26 people in the bar when we were there and it was a bit snug. They have good wines by the glass and some cold bites. We would definitely go back for a glass or two.
Awesome. Relaxed, the staff are great and they know their wine. The Jamon and the food is great. We went on a lazy Sunday afternoon and it hit the spot and was perfect. The barman was passionate about the wine and the list and it was a fantastic experience. All good.
Strongly recommended. Delicious Spanish tapas and excellent service.
Im doing a very big mistake telling you that this place is awesome! Because now, all of you would go there and I wont have a seat.We enjoyed great bottle of wine, delicious and percise tapas plates like Barcelona. The decor is tight with beautiful bar design and jamon slicing machines. Above all, the service is top class with the staff flying around the tables, taking care of each one of the guest. I would take my sister there when shell be here I promise
Perfect friendly place, excellent wine list, delicious tapas. Love this place
Bar Jamon is a great (tiny!) wine bar in Gramercy. They have a very diverse wine selection and the waiters are very helpful in their explanations. There are some good small plates to choose from as well.Con: They know how to make the most of every inch of space so you’re really crammed in their with other patrons. This, however, didn’t take away from the overall good time that we had.Pro: If you have a reservation at Casa Mono, they will take whatever wine you don’t finish over to your table there when it’s time. Definitely stop in for a drink before your meal!
Their Spanish wines are excellent. A great place to have a nice enjoyable drink and/or meal.
It’s where you go when you want tasty tapas and good Spanish wine but not so interested in conversation. It’s too noisy and crowded for that. Go there to start your evening but if you stay too long, you will feel them breathing down your neck — literally.
Tables are shared high tops with other patrons, but it still managed to be an intimate first date setting. Would recommend ordering about 5 tapas for two people. The calamares with radicchio was by far my favorite. Had churros with chocolate for dessert. The chocolate had some sort of hot pepper spice to it which was surprising and delicious. Very knowledgeable staff.
Excellent experience! It was very busy but after waiting a while at the bar with a bottle of rose the guy working there tipped us off when a seat was about to become available. Even though it seems chaotic he somehow quietly enforces some sort of queue. The atmosphere feels just like Spain.. bustling with people, great wine and tasty bites.We felt like having a rose wine but with little experience in Spanish rose we choose a safe Grenache. I guess they also thought we chose too conservatively and we were treated to a tasting of two of the others on offer, both of which were surprisingly unusual and complex. Im already looking forward to coming back and getting a bottle of the Lopez de Heredia!We were well looked after, well fed and definitely well wined!
Very lovely place, feels like a professional wine bar with great food! Enjoy
I have been going to Bar Jamon for close to 13 years. I love this bar. The food. The service. The wines. I know every bartender there but sadly as of late, the professional and amazing bartenders have moved on with their lives. That has never deterred me from stopping by for a drink and a yummy nibble until last night.For years, after midnight mass on Greek Orthodox Easter, at St. Johns, which is a few doors down from Bar Jamon, we have always and for years, gone to Bar Jamon for a drink/food and to keep our candles lit until we get home. That is the Greek ritual, keep the candles lit – it’s our biggest holiday of the year.We have never felt more insulted, berated and treated so badly there or anywhere else in NY. The porter and what we believed was the manager of the night. Long blond hair in a pony tail - cannot remember his name was OUTRAGEOUS & bigoted towards our religion and violently rude.We accepted that our candles could not be on the table, so he placed them on the bar and let burn out w/out saying a word to us. Whats even worse he threw them outside!!!! We were stunned. He gave us no notice even though we were very clear of their importance. He didnt care!!! He told me so. Is this the new trend, Millennials have no respect - when their job is show customer service excellence, esp. in such an established place that costs a fortune.The only one who showed us respect (especially towards the Greek custom) he was the young Spanish bartender. He was soo kind to us, clearly he had no authority but what a beautiful soul. The porter making the food was just as bad as the Blonde manager.We have never felt more insulted in our lives!!!! He disrespected our culture, religion and our gender. I will NEVER go back to this place unless Juan Pablo is working. He has respect and is one of the best bartenders in NYC. Juan Pablo has manners and class.Shame on Bar Jamon for hiring such insolent workers. Racists, sexists and bigots are DONE in our modern world. Perhaps, you should hire people who know how to treat other people in the food/bev business - especially FEMALES whos night was ruined because of this incidence.Absolutely disgusted!SHAME ON YOU!
My boyfriend took me here and it was a perfect evening! for a split second i felt like we were transported to spain, between the wine and tapas i was in heaven. the octopus was delicious and the manchego cheese paired so well with the wine. the spot is romantic, super small and lit with candles. two bottles and a couple of tapas later, we didnt have a worry in the world.
I seem to only visit this place as a spillover option when Casa Mono cant accommodate, but I should really go all the time. Its so intimate and cozy and friendly, especially leaning up against the bar. The staff are charming. The wine is good, and the range of seafood treats is excellent. Try the marinated calamari, the chorizo, the pan con tomate, or pretty much any ol cheese.
A very nice vintage styled bar. It brought me back to my time when I lived in Spain. The food was pretty good, the Tinto de Verano was ok. It had way to much ice and the decanter it came in didnt have that fancy gadget to block the ice from plopping into your glass. Meanwhile the couple next to us were granted that luxury. Maybe it was because I wasnt worthy.
Atmosphere is good and the place nice, but the is far away from the taste of real Spanish tapas, especially in terms of prices and quantity. Probably its hard to find a good Spanish tapas restaurant in NYC where quality is great and prices on average.
What a rip off. This is the other side of Casa Mono, Batalis tapas duo. Bar Jamon was actually recommended to me so imagine my disappointment when we were seated at the freezing cold window and constantly bumped by the server and other patrons because theres really only room for 10 people to be in here comfortably yet they have 20 seats.I hated the menu. I get that they have limited plates and it constantly changes because they break down a whole hog each week, which is admirable and interesting... but thats where my appreciation ended. A half glass of sherry was like $22. Ive been to similar places with way better prices, way more imaginative cold plates, and better service. We got a charcuterie plate and a bruschetta type starter, lacking cheese but the serrano ham was quite good and two glasses of wine.... Bill was $90.
Fantastic service - the server was able to recommend a great wine with just a small amount of information, food was ok
Terrible service! although, churros are great! I went with my parents to have some dinner, but the place was packed. Not a big deal, we just waited to get a few chairs. The real issue was the bartender/server (a guy with long hair) who was a total jerk! I had to ask a few times for a drink. After I asked for the drink on the third time, the bartender replied Oh, so do you want it now?. Anyways, my parents thought that they didnt want to attend us so they preffered not ask for anything else, but I just sticked around and asked for 2 orders of churros (because I heard they were really good at this place. Indeed, churros are amazing!). Anyways, the bartender/waiter never offered water, or anything else to order. Even after we got the food, we were not given any utensils to eat, NOT even napkins! I had to go ask for napkins because our hands were full of sugar from the churros. On top of that, at the end, I asked for a regular coke and the guy gave me a diet coke... Terrible service. I liked the food, but I will never go back to that place because of the poor service.
Walked in with four people on 3.12 at 10pm and the waiter said not tonight, buddyNever coming back
Bar Jamon is an excellent alternative when you cant get a seat next door at the tapas restaurant. Small and cozy, Bar Jamon serves Spanish wine with light bites. We shared a plate of Iberico ham and got a small carafe of red wine. Great for catching up and equally romantic. Open late night. Always a buzz. Gramercy gem for grownups.
I love this place. Great bocadillos and montados. Also, the selection of Spanish wines by coravin is fantastic, as is the option to get 3 and 5 ounce pours.
Closest place to Spain west of the Canary Islands. The great thing about Bar Jamon is that not only are the staff excellent, they actually know what they are talking about, and bring their passion for the food right to the table. If wisdom can be eaten, this is a place to start.
Cute Spanish wine bar, sister to their neighbor Casa Mono. This is more focused on light bites if youre not wanting to pay for the full meal of net door. Cheese plate and meats, for the win!
Great wine by the glass. You can also order some tapas. The atmosphere is intimate and is perfect for a date.
A super cozy beautiful place , best spanish tapas bar in the city with the best wines , pan con tomate is a must 😋😋😋
Great wine spot just near Union square - owner/manager enjoys taking care of his guests and will guide you to right selection.
Very friendly, knowledgeable, and personable service. Broad selection of excellent wines. Delicious and authentic Spanish snacks.
Visited bar jarmon on a cool saturday afternoon and enjoyed it a lot..small quaint space but very friendly crowd...waiter great helping us with dishes and wines..octopus dish was great as was the fresh anchovies over tomatoes and pork fat on toast..will visit on next visit when we have more time
The Foie Gras was possibly the best thing that I’ve ever eaten.
Expensive, salty and above all, prices do not match the quality offered. Jamon Navidul is considered as one of the lowest quality hams in Spain, while here its offered along with 5J
Great place, cozy. Gets picked quickly because its a bit small. Tasty wines!!!
HUGE selection of wines, unique food. The bartender Darwin went over and above expectations.
Nice place with good wine and ham. Very unique setting. Not enough seating though.
Reminds me of Barcelona. Love the servers and the olives and the vermut + cava spritzes. Loud but good for a passionate fun time.
Excellent tapas in Gramercy...we love the location as much as the perfectly sliced iberico ham and creamy gazpacho
Amazing wine selection and tapas
Great wine selection and tapas are great, but no hot food.
Great bar with tasty small bites and a great wine selection.
Incredible food and the wine to match will be back
Good attempt at spanish tapas. What they had was good...more food variety needed.
Good wines and appetizers, but tend to be crowded and noisy, hence the 4 stars
Excellent place for good wine and tapas.
Delicious Jamon and friendly staff
The first and only rule of Bar Jamon: always talk about how Spanish it is.
Small bar with a good wine selection and good atmosphere
Great wine and cheese with decent price

2022-01-26Lovely 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.

2021-10-16A 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.

2022-03-29Had a great time, first time here but felt like I was back in Spain. Food and wine, what more can I want.

2022-07-10Hard to believe this is a sister establishment to Casa Mono. We came here for dessert for the churros after dinner next door. It was $9 for two cold and unevenly soggy and crunchy sticks, although the chocolate sauce was fair. Service was also not very smooth unlike next door. We wont be coming back.

2021-06-20We really like this cool little spot, next to Casa Mono. Thye have a great wine selection and good nibbles. We had the Iberico jamon and an EXCELLENT dish of Spanish Sobrasada with Honeycomb and Quince Mermelada, WOW! The photo doesnt do it justice :)

2022-04-11Closed when we turned up at 10pm even though online advertised open until Midnight.Went to the attached restaurant to ask for a booking for 3 people for drinks and a bite to eat and was told they couldn’t seat us as they only do drinks at their “Bar Jamón” which was closed tonight.

2019-11-19Over 200 wine bottles to choose from. Sister bar/restaurant of Casa Mono. You can hang here while waiting for your table at Casa Mono and theyll even bring over your drinks if. You havent finished them. Great service.

2019-12-08Hopped in after Casa Mono closed its last call. It’s also a nice place to grab a glass of wine while waiting to be seated at Casa Mono.

2017-04-27Dimly lit, intimate wine bar with tapas and a great sherry program. This is slightly more casual than Casa Mono next door, but the same quality. The service staff is usually great.
