    (Translated by Google) It was horrible, we ordered two different dishes, they brought me something that I did not order and after it was not my mistake, the person who attended us was super rude, saying that I had changed the plate, I threw the cutlery and the chair that was next to us. side. They may be "privileged" for having a nice location, but without good customer service, it is useless. (Original) Fue horrible, pedimos dos platos diferentes, me trajeron algo que no pedí y tras de que no fue mi error, la persona que nos atendió fue súper grosera, diciendo que yo había cambiado el plato, nos tiro los cubiertos y la silla que estaba al lado. Puede que sean “privilegiados” por tener una locación bonita, pero sin un buen servicio al cliente, de nada sirve.

    Absolutely great place to have just a drink with your love ones or have nourishing meal no matter at what time. Food is absolutely perfect. Some advice for the people reading reviews: anyone complaining about the price: dismiss that review at once: one knew the price before ordering anything, so if it was above your budget why the heck did you order and then complained about it??? Those complaining food was bad: dismiss at once: food is never bad (takes lots of effort to screw up the food!!!) it’s just that you don’t like the food and you don’t want to pay for it, so you shift the blame on the food being bad. Suggestion: watch the movie “The Menu” highly recommended for butchers.

    Be careful here. We had a pretty ok dinner. The scenery was great, cocktails were average, food was decent... But when we were brought the cheque, the waiter asked for a tip. But when we looked at the check he had already added $25.000 COP and when we asked he sheepishly admitted it. Unfortunately for him we live in Colombia and will advise people against going there. Especially gringos.

    (Translated by Google) Pay attention when paying !!!!! I attended this establishment tonight, and at the time of paying with the dataphone, the person at the box increased the value of the tip, a value higher than what was on the invoice that was delivered to us at the table. I noticed it before paying, but they should take advantage of those who do not notice the change in value. Additionally, they did not give me the invoice at the end. Please check twice before canceling the value. (Original) ¡¡¡¡Presten atención al momento de pagar!!!!! Asistí en la noche de hoy a este establecimiento, y al momento de pagar con el datáfono, la persona en la caja aumentó el valor de la propina, un valor superior al que estaba en la factura que nos entregaron en la mesa. Lo noté antes de pagar, pero deben sacar provecho de los que no notan el cambio en el valor. Adicionalmente, no me entregaron la factura al finalizar. Por favor, revisen dos veces antes de cancelar el valor.

    Certainly not the one to give a bad review but this place warrants it. Although I only went there once this is my opinion. We had just arrived to our hotel and wanted some kind of meal before heading to bed. We arrive around 8:30pm. There is only 1 server, and 1 bartender and many tables of people. Prob 20 mins before he came over to our table. And then close to another 45 minute before the food came out. There were certainly people there but it wasn't crowded. Maybe 10 other tables. The sauces on both of our meals tasted like bad buffalo sauce and bad A1 sauce. Tasted like synthetic. And my cocktail drink was very difficult to muster due to the imbalance of taste. We knew the waiter was having a hard time keep up, so we didn't bother him with anything. But the only reason we went there was because it was the closest to our hotel.

    (Translated by Google) When we left they wanted to overcharge us without us noticing, even though we had already received the corresponding 10%. The waiter service and the food are good but the detail of overcharging secretly bothered me a lot. (Original) Al salir querían cobrarnos propina de más sin que nos diéramos cuenta, aún cuando ya les habíamos el 10% correspondiente. El servicio de los meseros y la comida son buenos pero el detalle de cobrar de más a escondidas me molestó bastante.

    A very beautiful restaurant on the water in the El Laguito section of Cartagena. The food, service and views were excellent. During my last trip to Cartagena, I ate here three times. Absolutely great place.

    This sleepy romantic spot was perfect for what we wanted. Seeking a place that remained open after midnight with great seafood. This was it! We had fried snapper, ceviche, grilled seafood mixtos that had snails, mussels, shrimp, calamari, crab and fish. We left there extremely pleased and very full.

    Checked into the Hilton at 1030pm and needed a place to get some food after a long travel day. Intriga Tropical is a neighboring property with seats over looking the canal area of Cartagena. Basic dining, open until 2am, with views of the water, it was exactly what we were looking for. The mixed seafood ceviche was tasty and the pepper steak was flavourful. Average serving size, which is very normal. Be warned, there are quite a few mosquitos but they have bug spray in case you need it. Overall, decent food, very reasonable prices, and open late.

    My friend and I ordered steak and fish dishes, and both were awful—we didn't even finish our meals. We paid in cash and the server kept our change, so we also felt ripped off. However, the view from the deck is beautiful

👍 If the servers were only helpful and friendly I would give this restaurant five stars. The servers seem to have an attitude and an air of snootiness. Not acceptable. The food is well presented but it does take a while to get it. My Poblano crepe was quite acceptable. The mushroom crepe was super yum...
