My wife and I were disappointed with our overall dinner experience. I had been there once before and enjoyed the food, ambience and service so I wanted to bring my wife to enjoy it as well. We were placed at a table near the door and it was extremely cold. I asked an employee if we could move to another table further from the door (there were several open tables for 2 people) and were told it wasn’t possible because they had reservations for larger parties, but they remained opened 30 minutes after our arrival. It was very uncomfortable to eat in a cold space, so we decided to leave early. In addition to the cold air, our server was inattentive and rushed away from us after we put in drink order and later food order. We asked to speak with a manager when the bill was set on the table, only to be told the manager was gone, who turned out to be the employee who declined our request. We did enjoy the food and drinks, but wished the service and environment had been better. This ruined our Valentine's Day dinner.

So we love the vibe of the place, the food was tasty, we would there guacamole, and plantain chips as well as they croquettes with Ropa Vieja , and their Cherasco was on point as well. The black beans were a little salty for our taste, but had a good base. And we also ordered their hamburger, which was a lacking although their manchego garlic fries that accompany it were so tasty. And I, though we love their lovely vibe, the music was incredibly loud, we were screaming in order to have a conversation, and we were literally across from each other .
