Pulpo Kitchen & Lounge

Tapas spot in the Grand Central District. Cocktails are solid, but the pork belly steals the show.

The review

Our take

Pulpo Kitchen & Lounge sits on Central Avenue in the Grand Central District. It's a spot for Latin-inspired tapas and cocktails. We tried the marinated olives, pork belly, and a little gem salad. The pork belly stood out, rich and flavorful. Cocktails were a highlight too. The place has a relaxed vibe with live music sometimes, and the patio is a nice touch. They take reservations, but we just walked in and easily got a seat at the bar. We'll be back for the pork belly and drinks.

What stood out

The pork belly was the standout dish, rich and flavorful.
