Poor service, dry expensive food
Havana Spice Restaurant的点评
点评:Read the reviews and was disappointed. Most of the restaurant was long rows of tables, few smaller tables. Asked to sit outside and the request was ignored. Was offered two options inside, neither of which were comfortable. Locals appeared to be welcomed, others—don’t waste your time. Someone brought water and toasted white bread. Server came to the table soon and just stood there. We gave our drink order and assumed he’d leave so we could figure out the menu. He continued to just stand there pleasantly. We said we’d order later. He just stood and we asked him about a few dishes and he just smiled so we assumed it was a language barrier—not so. So we hurriedly picked some things . Ordered the appetizer sampler for $33. It was swimming in grease. 4 shrimp, two crab(?) fingers, 1 tamale (really just a bunch of fried masa), about 10 chunks of dry pork and the rest plantains—about 2/3 of the platter. Snapper dinner—came with broccoli and a Caesar salad. Burnt broccoli and dry uninteresting snapper. Cuban sandwich was shredded pork, ham and cheese on a hoagie roll. Most generic Cuban sandwich I’ve ever had . We weren’t given any napkins or utensils. Had to hunt down the waiter and finally asked the one server we saw. Never asked if we needed anything. No water or drink refills. Had to hunt him down for the check. We decided he was
just inexperienced. $115 lunch plus tax and tip. I guess we just looked like tourists so they didn’t particularly want our business.
翻译:读了评论,很失望。餐厅的大部分都是长排桌子,只有几张小桌子。要求坐在外面,但被忽略了。里面提供了两个选择,但都不舒服。当地人似乎很受欢迎,其他人——不要浪费你的时间。有人拿来水和烤白面包。服务员很快就来到桌边,只是站在那里。我们给了我们饮料订单,以为他会离开,这样我们就可以弄清楚菜单了。他仍然愉快地站在那里。我们说我们稍后再点菜。他只是站着,我们问了他几道菜,他只是笑了笑,所以我们以为是语言障碍——但事实并非如此。所以我们匆匆选了一些东西。点了 33 美元的开胃菜样品。它浸在油里。4 只虾,两个蟹肉条(?),1 个墨西哥粽子(实际上只是一堆炸玉米粉蒸肉),大约 10 块干猪肉和其余的芭蕉——大约占了拼盘的 2/3。鲷鱼晚餐——配西兰花和凯撒沙拉。烧焦的西兰花和干巴巴的鲷鱼,毫无趣味。古巴三明治是三明治面包卷里夹着切碎的猪肉、火腿和奶酪。这是我吃过的最普通的古巴三明治。我们没有得到任何餐巾或餐具。不得不去找服务员,最后问了我们看到的一位服务员。从来没有问过我们是否需要什么。没有续水或续饮料。不得不去找他结账。我们认为他只是缺乏经验。115 美元的午餐,外加税和小费。我想我们看起来像游客,所以他们并不特别想要我们的生意。
