Yesterday, I was at Bocadillos for lunch with my partner. She ordered the chicken livers pasta and I ordered the burger with salad. Both our dishes, had a problem! Her pasta was sticky and clearly overdone, there were hardly ANY chicken livers, just sauce and the pasta was cold, like it had been sitting in the strainer for sometime. my burger was dry and the salad leaves were not fresh at all. The woman who served us seemed distracted, gave us dirty glasses with fingerprints and lint, and did not give my partner the right beer glass (I refuse to accept this establishment doesn't have the right ones). Another waiter kept staring at me making me feel uncomfortable. The sad thing is, I have heard so many positive reviews about Bocadillos in general, I am so disappointed my first experience turned out like this.

This is absolutely shocking service and I will not return. I would have walked out if it wasn’t for my niece being with me and...
Read moreThey serve great cake and have an interesting range if juices that I thoroughly enjoyed. Their waiters need to be more aware of their patrons. When we wanted to order another drink our waiter was nowhere to be found. We had to ask another waitress to process our order. We also asked for cake and the individual overseeing it didn't pass on our request and we had to ask again. Please address this. It is such a shame that his is such a nice place to enjoy a coffee date with a friend or partner but the staff are apathetic to their obligations to the customers. Please make the effort to address this as it is really off putting and will convince your patrons that they are not being acknowledged. They will most definitely take their...
