The bar tender when we first got here was terrible... He didn't greet us, he didn't introduce him self, he plopped down a drink menu and moved along. When I asked for drink recommendations he said, "How about Gin and tonic?" When I said I was looking for something like a signature drink, he said it is. He was fast and the drinks were good but he was lacking any personality and engagement what so ever. I am not kidding when I say he said no more than 10 words in the hour we sat at the bar waiting for a table drinking almost $100 dollars in drinks. Now the waiter was phenomenal! Great knowledge of the food and helped with our table of 3's decisions. We had the Octopus, Calamari, Sardines, Bacalao, Bacon wrapped figs, Short rib ravioli, wine and desert. I did find a pea sized piece or foil in one dish, but being culinarian's we understood these things happen and didn't demand a discount. They sent out a free Tapas and a round of desert ! Half the food was phenomenal the other I thought was missing some salt, and the beef short rib ravioli was flat... Needed acid and salt. All in all, I would go here again if I had the same waiter but would substitute some other dishes in.
