Restaurante Café do Forte - Bistrô Lounge — Restaurant in Região Geográfica Imediata de Salvador

I went to the place because it was full when I passed the night before. I went there as a second choice because mi preferred restaurant was closed on a sunday evening. Very disappointing experience. Plates are average, service is very bad. The biggest problem was the following. It was my wife's birthday. Before ordering I went inside to ask the waiter if we could have a small celebration with the desert. Apart from the fact that he literally said: "we can provide candles if you buy a desert" (when most restaurants offer you dessert just to celebrate). Anyways. In the middle of the dinner the waiter comes to say that he has to leave but has arranged everything with his colleague, therefore ruining the surprise. At the moment of truth: desert comes with no candles; they ran out of them last night. I say it is unacceptable but anyways, I don't want to fight in front of my family. So, I say I will come to talk to the manager when I finish. Surprise surprise, he comes to the table to offer explanations: "we thought we had but we don't. And they don't sell here in town" . Right after, he reassures me that one employee is out in town looking for candles and that we should wait, while kids are literally crying because they wanted the cake and candles for mom. Great finale: the check comes, and I have to pay full price. Not event a discount, not even "desert for free". Lesson: avoid even if it is full...

The atmosphere is wonderful. The service is fantastic. I believe the owners walk around during the weekends and makes everyone feel right at home even though the restaurant is super busy. It’s just a...

Estive neste restaurante há dois anos e, na época, foi uma das melhores experiências gastronômicas que já tive, comida memorável, tudo excelente. Voltei com grande expectativa ontem, mas infelizmente a experiência não foi a mesma.

O prato estava visualmente muito bonito, o tempero também estava bom, mas o ponto do arroz do risoto estava completamente errado, muito duro. Pedi o risoto de limão siciliano com salmão também, e o salmão veio extremamente seco. O garçom até se prontificou a trazer outro, mas já estávamos com o prato pela metade, então optamos por não trocar.

O atendimento continuou muito bom, como da primeira vez, mas, considerando o valor cobrado, é essencial que haja mais cuidado na execução dos pratos. Uma pena, pois o restaurante tem...
