| - Very, very disappointing. I don't even know where to start... Well, If "El Catrin" wants to be a trendy and upscale kind of restaurant, well they are not doing their homework properly...
The service is awful from the beginning, from the welcoming, from the hostess... The poor girl doesn't even know what she is doing.
The drinks were awful, terrible, the worse caipirinha I ever had.
The food is a joke... literally a joke, beginning with I don't consider what I eat Mexican food under any circumstance. The portions "tapas" (tapas are originally from the Spanish cuisine) are TINY, ridiculously small and extremely expensive.
What is this place thinking? we customers travel around the world, we are a multicultural and diverse city, we know what is Mexican food, and I never saw anything like this in my life.
What are we paying here is for the decoration, the location and that's it. I don't mind paying for an expensive dinner but I expect: good food and good service because that is why I go to an expensive restaurant. I usually never leave an exclusive restaurant unsatisfied... But we were hungry and after "El Catrin" we had to go have food somewhere else...
Guys, an honest advise, you are not Patria, Mexican food doesn't work tapas style. We ordered a steak medium rare, and what we got was a very, very petit and over cooked piece of meat... Tiny tacos for I believe it was $18... 1 shrimp for 8... well is just crazy... I know other comments are trying to justify the deficiencies because the restaurant just opened a couple of weeks ago, but seriously being new is not a excuse. If you were not ready, why did yo open? and if you decided to open why do we have to pay a high price for an experiment. Sorry.
