From the May 2008 Food & Wine Go List
Seasonal Spanish tapas are prepared by husband-and-wife team Alexandra Alexandra Raij and Eder Montero in a sliver of a space near Chelsea's art galleries. Manhattan was oddly lacking in great tapas bars until Tía Pol came along. Now, the pitch-perfect tapas and the all-Spanish wine list draw in fans from all over the city, which means there are constant crowds at the door. Also a Go List selection in 2007 and 2006.
We loved: The sandwich of chorizo sprinkled with bittersweet chocolate.
