05/05/2024: Yes, not really bad, but not really good either
15/04/2024: I love places where criticism is not welcome. As specified in the previous review, we arrive at the bar/restaurant and ask before taking a seat if they make cocktails such as mojitos. We are told that they don't make mojitos. We ask if they do Pinacolada and are told that they do. They make us sit down, after less than 20 seconds the girl arrives to ask us for our order (no menu or anything had been brought to us) but since we knew we wanted the pinacolada we ordered it and then we were given the menu as soon as we asked if it was possible to have a platter with cold cuts etc. Having attended hotel school, and having worked in the sector for 8 years, I think I know very well how basic cocktails are prepared. A pinacolada is a "creamy"/smoothie alcoholic drink that has a yellowish/white color depending on the preparation. Fresh pineapple is used, since you are making a smoothie, you use pineapple juice, coconut milk and white rum (obviously if it doesn't have pineapple, do without and blend it until you get a smooth consistency creamy). Do you think pinacolada is made with Malibu and pineapple juice shaken with ice? Apparently yes. As a decoration, among other things, add a slice of fresh or dried pineapple, a maximum of 2 cherries if there is no pineapple. But not a slice of orange but oh well. It's not that we came and ordered what we thought was off the menu (which I don't know), because the menu hadn't been provided to us, but above all if we asked "do the pinacolada" and I was told yes, I don't even have to look at the menu and I reiterate again that the menu was given to us once we asked for the platters. So dear owner, don't come and say that we were given the menu and that we ordered and consumed the order completely since I shot my drink because it really had a horrible and acidic taste. The other glass remained there, full, because it had only been tasted and therefore consumed completely nothing.
Then chicken thief? Charging €9 for a drink with only the right ingredients and pineapple juice really makes me laugh.
It would have been much simpler if they had told us "look, let's just do Aperol and that's it" at least we would have gone somewhere else and we could have saved ourselves both the negative experience and the review. Maybe first we learn to accept criticism (both positive and negative) and then also to make cocktails properly. But if you have 2.7 stars there must be a reason. Then if you don't have it as a drink on the menu, it was enough for them to tell us so that no one would be offended (I repeat that the menus were not provided to us so I don't know what you have and what you don't) but if other cocktails are also made like this it's better to just keep aperol and campari. It's human to make mistakes, absolutely. But this wasn't a careless mistake or too many clients/too much work to do at once. I'm not saying that the customer is always right because that's absolutely not true but in this case nothing can be said. This was just making a drink just to make it without the right ingredients and without following the procedure (being that it must be blended until creamy). However, the waiters were quick and friendly. Absolutely nothing to say about this. Having said that, good continuation.
