This place was terrible! For the life of me I could not understand why this place was packed. The hostess/waitress was not pleasant and very Un-knowledgeable about anything to do with the menu. I was hoping for a glass of wine, but they only carry Oak Leaf and Barefoot! Yuck! I wouldn't have ordered that if it was $1.
So, I opted for a dirty martini (this is a martini and tapas bar after all) it was the worst dirty martini I had ever had. My friend enjoyed her fruity martini, but I am not a fruity drink kind of girl... And if you are going to call yourself a martini bar.... Your bartenders should be experienced in making all kinds of Martini's.... Especially a standard martini, dirty!
Moving on, we were starving.... So we ordered the caprese stackers and tuna tartare. My friend and I consider ourselves somewhat of Caprese gurus. We order it everywhere we go and make it at home on a regular basis. Thinly sliced tomato (not fit for a cheeseburger) CUCUMBER?!?!?, Â 1" cubed processed mozzarella cheese, what appeared to be some dried basil flakes and balsamic is NOT caprese ( I am KICKING myself for not taking a picture to share). It was disgusting and I am sad to say I ate it because I was famished. The worst part is they charged $9 for it.
The tuna tartare was actually not that bad. Â I'm happy to report I'm not vomiting this morning....(cause trust me, I did worry). Again, at over $11 it was extremely overpriced for the quality.
This place achieved an EPIC FAIL TRIFECTA! Â Poor service, poor drinks and poor tapas.
We quickly paid our tab and high tailed it to a more appropriate establishment for wine and tapas.
Visited this place for the first time...it was late night, great dj and good crowd for a restaurant turned party after hours. Friendly staff and a perfect martini (I'm extremely picky). The one sad experience was the tuna tartare. I'm in the service industry and tend to be VERY forgiving when it comes to bad food. What was described on the menu as well as here on Yelp sounded fantastic! What showed up was a martini glass of canned tuna. Yes, seriously canned tuna. Not sure what happened in the kitchen but our waitress was gracious about taking it back and not charging us. Be cautious when you order this...hopefully it was just a fluke. This wouldn't stop me from coming back.
