"My wife and I enjoyed a wonderful experience at Addictive. We had reservations and thoroughly enjoyed everything. A special thank you to Patrick. The atmosphere was really nice. Patrick and staff were very friendly and efficient - they really made our dining experience even better. We enjoyed the tuna tartare, mussels and seafood paella- very very tasty!"

"Made a reservation here and I’m so happy I did. Addictive NYC is one of those rare spots that makes you forget you’re even in Midtown. You walk down a set of stairs and suddenly the noise, the crowds, the chaos is all gone. The staff couldn’t have been nicer. Our waiter knew the menu and the wine list like the back of his hand, and every recommendation he made hit the mark. Speaking of the wine list it’s unreal. They have wines from all over the world and even have their own brand. Easily one of the best I’ve seen in the city, with bottles you don’t see anywhere else. The food is honestly outstanding. If I could eat here everyday I would. Every plate looked beautiful and tasted even better You can tell the kitchen here really cares about what they’re putting out. If you’re looking for a place that’s intimate, elevated, and a real break from the city madness, this is it."

"We came by on a rainy Thursday night. We were a bit early for our reservation, but that didn't seem to be an issue at all, because the welcome was warm and seamless. While there isn't a traditional host stand, the service from the moment we walked in was impeccable. A special thanks to our waiter, Stefano, whose attentiveness and genuine care elevated our entire evening. He was warm, knowledgeable, and made sure every detail was just right! The atmosphere at Addictive NYC is both charming and thoughtfully designed. Floral decorations add a soft, fun, and trendy touch, line lights cast a warm glow throughout the space, and little details like corks in glass jars and wine bottles artfully lined up along the wall give it a cozy yet curated feel. The restaurant is somewhat small, but the layout is arranged in a way that doesn't feel cramped. We were spaced out enough to enjoy a relaxed dinner without feeling like we were on top of other tables. The food was absolutely phenomenal, especially for Restaurant Week. Some places don't bring their best or serve meager portions during RW, leaving you wondering why you even bothered but that wasn't the case here. Everything was done with care and full flavor. We started with two versions of the Ensalada de Setas, one without tomatoes (per my request) and one without mushrooms (per theirs). Both were earthy, flavorful, and beautifully balanced. For my entrée, I had the Costillas de Cordero, which were tender and perfectly seasoned one of the best lamb dishes I've had at a NYC restaurant. It's served with a hummus I was initially skeptical about, but it was flavorful and paired wonderfully with the lamb. We ended with Torta Santiago, a traditional Spanish almond cake that was moist, subtly sweet, and a delightful way to close out the meal. Honorable mention goes to the other entrée, the salmon with roasted vegetables, which was expertly seasoned, cooked just right, and paired with fresh, vibrant veggies. You can tell there's real passion behind the food here. All paired with a shared bottle of wine. Addictive NYC truly lives up to its name. Between the incredible food, the cozy and stylish ambiance, and Stefano's top-tier hospitality, this is a place I'll absolutely return to. It's a perfect choice for a girls' night, a date night, or catching up with friends. A quick tip: since the space is small, it's best to make a reservation, especially for larger groups. Also, keep in mind that there's a 3% surcharge for credit card payments, and totals are split between cash and card. Can't wait to come back!"

"Casual and cozy Spanish tapas and paella restaurant that's ornately decorated. Happy hour offers $9 wine. The tempranillo red was very good. Their cheese plate served decent portions and their garlic shrimp and hummus was also good. Recommend for casual dining that won't hurt your wallet too much."
