A disappointing end of an amazing night..
I booked this restaurant for an amazing evening. Earlier in the day, me and my girlfriend had got engaged. We had been to La Tienda de Plácido y Grata multiple times in 2022 and always had an amazing time. So naturally thought this would be a great place to celebrate our engagement. Sadly, it didn’t live up to our expectations.
We got seated quickly & that was great. The service was extremely slow & only 1 waiter serving all of the tables. We ordered Cava (no champagne) & a large water for the table. The water come quickly enough, the Cava sadly didn’t. We then ordered cocktails, which also didn’t come. The nanchos we ordered were burnt & we could tell these weren’t made fresh by the way the oil and cheese were on the plate. The fresh(ish) avocado & salsa didn’t make up or cover up the practically rotten tortilla chips.
When I say the food was inedible, I mean it was inedible. I could see in the reflection of the glass the way the Chef was preparing the food & it looked so rushed and unprepared.
Thankfully, we decided before our main course come to leave. We had simply had enough. 40ish minutes into being there, the Cava & the cocktails still hadn’t come. The ONLY thing that was good about the evening was that the waiter understood what we were saying and didn’t charge us for the water.
We had planned to come to La Tienda de Plácido y Grata multiple times but we won’t be coming back. We are so unbelievably gutted as we had such an amazing experience before.
