I've been to Burdo at least 8 times, so I obviously enjoy it. What I love:The cocktails - innovative and delish.The bar snacks and apps - these are the best things on the menu.Brunch.The interior design.Service is usually solid.What I don't love:The techno music can be over-the-top sometimes. Scale it back.I've never been impressed by an entree. They are always good, but never amazing. I've learned to stick to ordering the snacks to share or pizza.

It's a long couple of blocks from the nearest Metro stop, but this experience is worth it. Imagine a food court with maybe 40 different choices ranging from the simple to fine dining, filled with people and music, all at reasonable prices. The noise and the crowds downstairs were almost overwhelming, but we found a seat upstairs at the Italian restaurant and had a great meal.Hello! We love that you had a good experience Welcome always!

The pub is angular lapiedra of British culture. There will always be a pub on every main street of cities in the UK. Much more than just a place to order a drink and eat, the Pub is a community center, where you will always have a friend, the bartender wh

I went in for a drink, and the bar was maybe 50% full. I sat down at a stool on the corner of the bar and waited for service. The guy behind the bar was busy, the girl was "wandering " around. I tried numerous times to make eye contact and raised my hand, to at least let them know I wanted a drink. Nothing.There were 5 bar staff, all at the small table next to the entrance. All talking, not serving. Again, I tried to make eye contact to no avail - chating was more important. There were quite a few people in the bar, so perhaps a better use of time would have been walking around asking clients if they wanted to order something.After 8 minutes (yeah , I clocked it), I got up and left. Could I have gotten up and walked over to the girls and asked for some service? - --Of course I could have, but I am generally fed up with the attrocious levels of service in Colombian bars that I walk out if they cannot be bothered to train their staff. The owner was sitting right in the entrance. Tips are included in the bill, and staff shoudl at least try to offer some level of serviceBeing the owner of Patrick's I was sad to read this Review, Patrick's is under New Management, the person in charge has knowledge & Experience to run a Excellent Staff, Customer & Food Satisfaction, We open at 10AM for Breakfast everyday and have 2 Shifts in Staff, Our night shift being the most experienced..Heads will Roll, Im not Happy! Hope you will give us another try in the Future...Thanks!

Reviewer - Me- Fat - Asian From NYC - Tbone was okay ,, price was 26 USD - ok piece of meat but for that price I was expecting it . Food was good - Mash potatoes were horrible - puree of potatoes covered in cheap cheese and had a few cherry tomatoes .. honestly what the hell - tasted not right.

Tonight I went with my family to Toro restraurnt. I highly highly recommend this restruant. Safe neighbourhood, lots of people around. And the steak was just amazing and I am a picky eater. Plus our waiter knew some english which helped a lot with the menu. Such a nice guy! Plus fantastic prices for steak!

The service was very slow. We kept trying to get waiters attention to order and were ignored. I went up to front desk and a waitress said sheâd be right over but that didnât happen. So after waiting a bit more, I went back to the front desk and started ordering from there (the waitress finally came over). I asked for a burger to be cut in half so my young children could share it (as there was no kids menu) and they said they wouldnât do it. My kids and I have eaten burgers in over 12 countries and never had our request for a burger to be cut in half for kids to be refused. So we left hungry, frustrated and disappointed as we had read good things about the food and traveled quite a distance to get to Chef Burger at Los Molinos mall. We took our business elsewhere. I really hope management will train wait staff to be more service oriented and responsive.
