Interesting latino food -- terrible service – The 3 dishes we shared were very tasty: Creole fish, chicken in curry, fish in coconut curry. They were not spicy enough for us, but we like Mexican and Thai food. I would like to return, but only if the service improves. The waiter was nice in the beginning, when we were alone in the restaurant. We hardly saw him after ordering. I told him I have allergies and what they were. He said there would be no problem with the vegetables and when he brought them, I showed him that there ... read more

Sketchy Place – I few friends and I went to the Latin Bistro a few nights ago, and for the most part the food was fairly good. The Chicken Parmesan was good. It gave me the taste like I was eating at McDonalds :). Out whole point by going there was to dance on their dance floor. Once we hit the dance floor, some old random guy tried to hook up with my girlfriend. I gave him my death stare and he backed off. This gave me the impression that this place is very sketchy. My suggestion is, if your going to dance at this place, go... read more

They must have good music – Because the food ain't all that. Maybe it was because I had high expectations, but I should have known better when I had to change my reservation twice (on Valentine's Day) and they had no problem changing it...probably because it was mostly empty..red flag number 1 No manager, no host we stood in the entry way for 2 minutes before anyone said hello (on Valentine's Day) Advertised there would be specials on V alentines Day...there were none.. I had a restaurant coupon they wouldn't accommodate b/c... read more

Service sliced? – We enjoyed the food. the drinks, and the atmosphere. However, we were left with a not so good impression of the place based on service. The dress code doesn't seem to be enforced. We waited 15-20 min to be served or I should say even asked what we wanted to drink. The bill came bill came and all was good so we gave our card to pay, but when it came back there was an automatic 18% gratuity that was added in and already charged. Pretty shocking to us since there was only 2 of us and the service was not up to ... read more

Paella was amazing! – We went here on a Friday night around 6-7. It was great case they had a happy hour with half priced drinks and apps. We ordered the Paella, which takes 50 minutes to make and it was amazing! We had to call a friend to help finish it. It took three of us. Keep in mind it is not a real fancy posh place but the Paella was as good as I have had in Spain!

Don't get knifed – I am in the industry and am very forgiving, but here's what you should expect. You will walk in and no one will greet you for ten minutes. Next you'll be escorted to your "fine dining" booth, passing by the bar with toddlers playing on the floor next to drunken adults. Next the food will take awhile, but be affordable and tasty - not the sort you'd go back for, but might look impressive otherwise. When you go to the restroom, plan to see the inside of the door carved up with knives from top to bottom (no j... read more
