| - Not a great evening out.
Met friends after work for dinner and they suggested El Catrin. We sat on the patio which was questionable because it was too cold and very windy.
The fire pit was burning and the heaters were trying to keep us warm but it wasn't working. We were cold but decided to stick it out.
We had margaritas which were pretty good.
We mentioned to the waitress we were heading to a show at 8, she said no problem that she would mention it to the chef.
We started with the guacamole- delicious, I mean really good.
The rest of the food arrived reasonably quickly. Because it's tapas, the first few dishes arrived.
My wife asked for napkins and cutlery, I'm guessing the server must have mis-heard because she brought 2 cocktail napkins. Since our table had 4 people, my wife asked for more, the server than disappeared.
Our next meal arrives via a different server, again we asked for cutlery and napkins, and the second server seemed surprised by the ask. He brought cutlery and napkins, by the time he returned the meal was starting to cool down.
Now the first server returned with more cocktail napkins.
The food was pretty tasty, but portion sizes were way too small for the price, IMO.
And now the bill. We waited and waited, but our waitress was no where around. We finally asked another server to get our bill, she tracked down our waitress and she brought the bill and promptly disappeared again. She returned a few minutes later.
Not great service.
The patio is nice. (Trying to be positive)
Overall, mediocre at best.
I will not return.
