| - My boyfriend and I went in here on a Tuesday night to meet a friend... and it was absolutely packed. None of us had ever been here, so we had no idea it was "Taco Tuesday." The bartender greeted us, took our name, and offered to get us a drink while we were waiting.
We were seated after about 35 minutes, and had a bit of an issue with our table mates (two parties were seated at one of the long tables--not a big deal, and the issue is neither here nor there, as the bartender helped to sort it out).
Luckily we'd gotten that drink before being seated, because we didn't see a waitress for quite a while. All three of us had finished our beverage and had been looking around for 10 minutes or so. Finally our waitress came over (it seemed like she was the only person working besides the bartender? Bad idea for a busy night), and asked me (no one else) if I wanted another glass of wine; I said yes, and she walked away... without knowing what I had been drinking. Surprise, surprise, she comes back 5 minutes later and asks which wine I had--my boyfriend and friend jump in to give their drink orders, too.
So we get our drinks a few minutes later, and she walks away... again. Mind you, we still haven't gotten menus, heard any specials, been asked if we're eating...
Next time the waitress appears at our table mates' sides, I flag her down and ask if we could have some food menus. We order, get our food, yada yada yada. The service was similar throughout the entire evening--even when it slowed down and the restaurant started clearing out. And not ONCE did ANYONE mention anything about the specials. I still have no idea what the exact deal is, but we were venting our frustrations to another friend who'd recommended the place later that week, and she told us why they were so busy on Tuesday.
On food: we got a few small plates--the charcuterie board, the olives, and the pan con tomate. Largely good, though the pan con tomate was a bit bitter... too much garlic/not enough tomato, perhaps.
TL;DR: If you go on Tuesday, know already that it's "Taco Tuesday" and that you will have slow service and no one will give you any indication about what is going on. The bartender will probably pay more attention (to your table) than your waitress. Tasty wine and food, for the most part.
Will try this again (not on a Tuesday) to compare; may try Tuesday night again if an off night shows it's worth it.
