   Unfortunately the service was very slow considering we only ordered tapas. The management was apologetic, which we appreciate, however did not improve the overall experience. Maybe better luck next time.

   Took 20 mins to get situated and to a table even though we had reservations. The silverware was dirty and it was obvious. Food was your typical experience, nothing special.

   Bad check in. Had reservations and waited over half an hour past checking in to be seated. Dinning room way too bright and over lit. 1905 salad is an overrated Cobb salad meets Olive Garden. My Ropa Vieja had almost zero meat in it and was a soupy tomato and onion mess. My wife’s chicken mangengo was good, but that was it. For the prices, even knowing it is a tourist trap were not worth the experience and food.

   Poor customer service. Hostess needs another job. Set a negative tone for my evening. Food order was wrong for one of my ordered tapas Salad was gross. Overall, fail.

    Unpleasant atmosphere and terrible service. Our food was decent, the sangria is just ok, and I've had better bread pudding. First time here and not sure what the hype is all about. Wife and I came for our ten year anniversary and regret it. Staff was scrambling with a lack of coordination, dropping silverware each time they cleared a table, and leaving dirty dishes everywhere. Trays of dirty dishes were left sitting around the restaurant. Wait staff kept squeezing behind my chair, bumping into me. Our table seemed like it was in the middle of a walkway. Took a long time to start getting service and once we did, it felt sloppy. The attitude of the waiter made us feel like a side thought. Our dinner cane out in less than 10 minutes of ordering but our salad never came. Took quite a long time to flag down the waiter about the issue. The waiter seemed flustered and very disorganized. Its hard to explain how uncomfortable he made is feel. Not rude just maybe never had done this job before and didnt know how to treat people Then It took so long to get our bill and cash out. This topped our list for worst service at a restaurant.
