I live in Spain, it's cultural, they bring the dishes out as they are ready from the kitchen. You don't want them like that, you tell the server, and they'll bring them as you want them.

Hi Kristen, excellent detailed review. Regarding the table for two number of portions, that is exactly something I would have noticed too as I like a good deal and I don’t want to ever feel ripped off. You’re not shy…maybe next time at the end of the service, you could ask the server how the portions are determined, table for 2-3 gets x # servings, tables for 4-5 get x # servings for example. What we don’t know about the table of two is whether they had someone in their party that cancelled at the last moment with a non-refundable prepayment. Now I’m curious too.
@wrightdownmainstreet6 ай бұрын
They were seated at a 2 top so I would assume it was a party of 2 from the jump. I am curious what would have happened if we were a party of 4. I genuinely think you all get the same portion no matter what. So I recommend going as a party of 2 😊

I drove all the way out to DS from Tampa last night.. was all set up with my view from House of Blues.. then Mother Nature had other plans. First.. it was too windy. Then they said they were good to go.. we started seeing some lights from he far left.. then the whole system crashed! They tried to restart and it crashed again. Then they cancelled the show "Due to unforeseen circumstances". I was so bummed and didn't wait for the late show because the forecast still showed windy conditions. So.. I would be afraid after spending $79.. that the show would be cancelled. I'll try again in before the show leaves.

Yes, you should pretty much have the same view since Summer House is right next door to Jaleo! I am not sure if you can specifically reserve a table on the back patio though, so maybe try to get there a little early to request an outdoor table.

I understand what you're saying about the portion sizes, but at the end of the day, that's what tapas are and they're expensive. Plus, it's really important that restaurants are consistent with their portion sizes to ensure everyone is paying the same amount for the same thing listed on the menu. It just wouldn't be fair for one table to pay the same money for something but receive a larger portion, regardless of party size. Because tapas are small and supposed to be shared, large groups have to accept that they may have to order more than one of each dish. 🤷♀ Great video though. Always enjoy your content!
@Traveling14826 ай бұрын
Strongly disagree. This meal package is priced per person, not per dish or per table. The portions should be sized for the number of people since each person pays the same (regardless of whether it is a table or 2, 3 pr whatever).

I did not like this restaurant when I ate there. The food was ok, not anything fantastic. Some things were good, other things were bland and just meh. The seats were uncomfortable, there was no place to put your purse or bags except for the floor, which was not great. It was not crowded (we ate there at lunch), but it was strangely loud with the music and all the hard surfaces bouncing sound around. The waiter stood and stared at us from the bar as we ate. The table and chairs were really cheap, it was like being in a fast food place, but acting like high class. Anyway, there are so many much better places to eat there, so it was a one and done for us.
