“Our experience at La Bodega was overall really good. The food and drinks were delicious, and the service and atmosphere were nice.We ordered one pulled pork tapa and the paella verduras and 2 Spanish coffees!Flavors were unique and tasty.We were under the impression that our coffees would be prepared tableside and were a little disappointed that they were prepared at the bar. We saw that another table ordered the same thing, and it was prepared at their table. So be sure to ask if you are expecting it to be a table side experience.The other note I would make is that while the tapas are delicious, they are not a good value. The portions are very small. The paella, in my opinion, was a better value.We would come back again, but would probably stick with just the paella and drinks.“
“Lovely new wine bar and restaurant in the River market. We visited on a busy Saturday and had about a 15 minute wait to be seated outside. There are two separate outdoor patios with a combination of umbrellas and awnings. The inside is quite spacious and we could have chosen to sit inside immediately. But why would we want to do that on such a beautiful day! Hostess took our name and texted me when our table was ready. Our waitress was knowledgeable and pleasant, the meatball subs were excellent, and the atmosphere couldn’t be beat. We sat outside with a view of the hubbub outside, and enjoyed watching the streetcars go by. My husband and I feel like these are the best meatballs we have ever had. I asked about bringing a large group for lunch and was told they are open for lunch on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. They do take reservations for larger groups. There is free parking during the week in the area where the market is located on weekends.“
“I was quite surprised that it reminded me so much of a cafeteria, someplace where you walk into Like a company or a hospital and it’s just real simple, very sterile and I must mention only a handful of seats The food was good!!!!!The portions were very very small, and like most things overpriced. The service was accommodating and I’m glad I got to experience it(once)“
“Been here a few times with friends, and I enjoyed each experience. The ambiance is hard to beat - beautiful homage to butterflies that make up the central bar that is surrounded by the seating. Kind and attentive service too. I think their cocktails are unique and for the most part good, but I do think some of the flavors are a risk and aren't for everybody. Still, I would come again and bring people from out of town.“
“My wife and I took a break from espresso shops and tried this hotel restaurant for coffee. It turned out surprisingly better than expected. The service was excellent, and the cappuccino was better than expected. It was good that I tried this restaurant.“
“Amazingly great food that is out of this world. Definitely for the major foodie at heart. Didn’t get the baklava cause we were told kitchen was closed…. Not mad as we had dessert elsewhere but coming from an industry employee the last course in service should also be the last station to close in the kitchen. The meal itself was fantastic and everything i could have wanted which is why i was very disappointed i was able to try the dessert. Oysters were delicious, ribeye seasoned and cooked to perfection, bone marrow melts in your mouth, cauliflower that take your love for the veggie to another level. Craft cocktail menu is a true craft cocktail menu not like most other restaurants want to be craft menus.“
“The simplistic menu is packed full of flavor & delight. They've taken a handful of staple ingredients and transformed them into the perfect elevated bites of salt, fat, bitter & sweet. We would have eaten our way through the whole menu if we weren't stuffed. We highly recommend getting cozy with a loved one & a beautiful cocktail and order one of everything.“
“What a beautiful space for drinks and dinner! There's a fun holiday cocktail menu and all our small plates (Harissa Shrimp, Bolognese Pasta, and Seared Tuna) were wonderful. Every dish that was carried out to other tables looked amazing. The service was great too, and hope we can go back someday soon!“
