Graffiti Food & Wine Bar

I went to this place two years ago and the food was pretty decent..went again last wk to take my partner for a birthday surprise for high end experimental food.This experiment went highly wrong... and it almost ruined the date...we ordered the lychee drink and the fruit was rancid.The watermelon feta salad was at best o.k.sliced; watermelon, feta, and slushed mint....the paneer was disgusting, all heat but no flavor..the spinach tasted bitter, and left a film in your mouth.The skate was greasy, like it was sitting in old oil or it wasnt heated highly enough before put in to cook..the duck dish was dry like leftover shredded chicken..the only good tapa was the scallops...three bites of good food...90 bucks wasted on four tiny plates of food..I was so embarrassed...we ended up going to a nearby rrestaurant to eat a good meal after....never ever again....

My husband and I love to explore East Village and Alphabet city. During one of these outings we stumbled across Graffiti. This is possibly one of the smallest restaurants I have ever been to.The tables follow a small communal style seating and the group we were seated with was welcoming and friendly. They made several recommendations off the menu which we made sure to try.
The chef, the hostess, the waitresses, everyone works well like the little gears in a time piece keeping perfect time.
Amazing flavors and textures, I am really so impressed that all these flavors can come out of such a tiny kitchen!
We can't wait to go again!

Tiniest place you'll ever call a restaurant, seriously! This restaurant symbolizes everything NYC stands for, namely eclectic, tiny and rather expensive.

The size of the space only adds to the experience. Awesome and delicious Indian food with a twist, and great tapas. Chef Mehta is phenomenal, finds time to speak to his customers. Chatted with our table for about half an hour.

Great food, special place! Be prepared to make friends with your neighbors because you won't have any other choice due to the spacial limitations of the place.
