La Fonda Del Sol Description:
The dual-personality La Fonda del Sol offers Josh DeChellis's modern take on Spanish tapas in a modern-day reincarnation of Joe Baum's famed restaurant of the same name. Designed by Adam Tihany, the restaurant stands out from other business-oriented Midtown choices. The lower-level casual space is bright and minimalist in décor with a full bar and menu of tapas. Upstairs, in the luxe, airy dining room, selections from the tapas menu accompany an extensive entrée menu. Traditional Catalán favorites like tomato bread, patatas "bravas" and Serrano ham grace the menus in both rooms. To create a traditional Spanish feast, try the tuna tacos or blistered piquillo peppers ("padrones") to start, followed by some of the heartier selections like skate a la plancha or chicken with chorizo and rice. Desserts include Spanish-influenced tres leche cake as well as rice pudding with roasted pineapple and chile de arbol. Spanish wines and cavas are offered along with Spanish-influenced martinis. Because of its location, the restaurant is very popular during lunch and after work. Try for a reservation after the theater or on the weekend when you can enjoy a less frenetic ambience.
