Francisco’s Centro Vasco

Time Out says
Friendly warning! We're working hard to be accurate. But these are unusual times, so please check that venues remain open.
Vasco is Spanish for “Basque,” but dinner at this Chelsea staple is usually a Maine event—fresh, reasonably priced New England lobster. Scribbled on the waiter’s notepad is the latest by-the-pound list of available crustaceans living out their final moments in the kitchen’s tank. Go classic—simply boiled and served with drawn butter—or try Francisco’s Favorite: a 1-pound lobster stuffed with crabmeat and sprinkled with queso fresco. The simple formula appears to be working: So many people line up to get into the dark, dated dining room, the maître d’ occasionally resorts to using a velvet rope.
