LA VINOTINTO

"The music was too loud and our waitress was flirting with the guy at the bar and even sang happy birthday to him, she was glued to her cell phone. customers were bringing her the ticket and had to flag her down to get what we wanted. Service is not good. But the food is delicious. You need respectful runners."

"I love arepas and empanadas. Pan fry, deep fry, even bake, all depending what you want to do with them. These were deep fried and true to Venezuelan/Columbian tradition, made with Harina P.A.N. They're really simple and highly dependent fillings or toppings. So these were pretty good, as were the Empanadas. It was the cachapa that won me over. As good as any I've had. They always are. The sweet cheese inside with queso fresco crumble on top. Excellent. For full traditional experience, give the Vinotnto Mixto a shot. You won't regret it."

"As someone that eats peruvian food all my life, this place has been one of the worst serviced, worst tasting I've had. The service right off the bat was terrible. Even though we were seated immediately, we were not given times or if it was a busy night. From our perspective, it wasn't too busy a little wait wouldn't hurt. We had to be out by 10 and we got there at 7:45. It took our waitress 20 minutes to come by and take our drink order and with that time we had already decided what to eat so we planned on giving our entire order, but our waitress said to give her a second so she can do that separately. On a Friday night, they had no chicha, one of the busiest night, did not have any made so we had to get water. Finally after another 10 minutes, we were able to get our drinks and order in. We sat there for an hour with no food coming out. We waited until there we could find our waitress to just cancel and we couldn't find her for what felt like forever. When we finally did, we asked to just cancel our food and we'll pay for the drinks cause we had to leave in 20 minutes, to which she replied with "but the foods coming out right now, just give me a second to grab it". We told her if we can just get boxes so we can just pack it up to go and she obliged and got us the boxes and the check. We paid for the food BEFORE EVEN GETTING THE FOOD, but at this point we were just so over it and wanted to leave. She had us sit there another 15 minutes before all the food was out, half of our plates came out cold, the other half hot. We were very upset so we just packed our food and left. Now to talk about the food. One of the least flavored, sorry excuse for peruvian food. It didn't taste like an once of salt was on anything. I got the Lomo saltado and was immediately faced with something that didn't look or taste like it. Not only that, they still had the sticker on the tomato that was cooked into my food. I wish I could say I was making this up or exaggerating but the food was not good and not prepared well. It seems as though the resturant was trying to be more fancy than good food. Overall, the service and food were not good, the only thing I can say was nice was the resturant. Walking in, it seems like the fanciest place for it being myrtle. Beautiful on the inside, a beautiful bar, everyone in a great mood, family feel. Other than that, everything was awful. I don't see myself coming back, and to everyone who wants to go, keep in mind that you'll be there for a while for food less than average."

"Give this local and authentic Brazilian spot a try! It was really fresh food, and it was tasty. The menu was vast with lots of unique choices. Great for vegetarians to! The portion size was on par, and the service was nice."

"Very tasty food. Very nice service. It seems like they also organize events in there! We had a great time, even though it took long for our food to get there. The 4 stars and not 5 is because they bring part of the table’s order and take too long to finish bringing the rest of the plates. We started eating once everyone was served but some had colder plates than desired. Other than that, everything was 5 stars."
