The Sangria Bowl — Restaurant in Culpeper

I really want to like The Sangria Bowl, but my recent experience will most likely keep me from coming back. A friend and I were dining in having a few drinks which was nice, the live music was a little too loud cause the waitress was clearly having a hard time hearing anything as I had to repeat orders a lot, but the man performing was very good and quite nice! We started off with their sangria flight and the jalamango was missing the jalapeno so it was just mango, still good but not exactly what we wanted, everything else while dining in was nice. When I placed a to-go order of loaded fries, two orders of beef empanadas, and a side order of mac n cheese, when I got home I realized that half the order was wrong. I was missing an order of empanadas and the mac n cheese, in their place was an order of sliders I didn't ask for and just a to-go box filled with buns and a small dollop of mac n cheese. It was very disappointing as I had even waited an extra 15 minutes for the "mac n cheese". I called to see if they would at least refund me for the empanadas and mac n cheese, but I was told that because I had taken my to-go order out of the restaurant that they wouldn't refund the missing and incorrect items, and instead they said I could come back in and buy the items to go again. The management seems very unwilling to correct mistakes, and due to that I don't think I'll be coming back. I know if they messed anything up if I went again nothing...

I came here with my girlfriend for my birthday and things were fine at first. The server Natalie was nice but needs to improve her recollection. We ordered both things that were offered on the menu which were beef empanadas and chicken strips and fries. They came back with the chicken strips but instead of beef we received shrimp, luckily were not allergic. The server also asked if we needed silverware after bringing our food and we said yes, we never did get our silverware. We also asked for waters at the start and only after receiving our food our food because I asked again. The drinks were good but mostly juice. Near the end of our visit, what I would assume is, the manager came and asked how things went. I demanded the beef empanadas not be in our check since we didn’t actually get what we ordered but still have them to go. From the beginning the manager said we should have let our sever know of any allergies as it states on the menus and the only menus we received were the drink menus that have no such disclaimer.

All in all I would not recommend this place unless you pregame and come here for...

First and last time trying the Sangria Bowl. Food and drinks are way overpriced, and the food was not good. We ordered shrimp tacos. $5 each for what appeared to be frozen breaded shrimp from a grocery store with some bad tasting sauce and some sour cream. Definitely not authentic Hispanic food. And all of the interior tables were jammed together near the bar. I assume that was because of the line dancing class earlier, but none of the staff seemed to want to move them. The tables stayed that way for the duration of our visit. We were seated directly in front of the kitchen door where I got numerous glimpses inside. Pieces of food and other debris on the floor. The only reason I am giving 2 stars instead of 1 is our waitress. I didn't get her name but she did a great job. There are many other great dining options in...
