    We visit this location often. Last night, service was a little off, but it seemed we had a new server. Otherwise, good food and ambiance.

    It was such a long wait for everything. We ordered 2 margarita flights and only one came out at the very end and we had to remind them twice to bring out the second. The flights were good. The chips and 3 dips were amazing. Our waitress had to be flagged down multiple times for water and soda refills. Food was good, service was lacking. I had a reservation as well.

    Disappointing Valentine’s Evening First of all, I want to say that the food itself, and our server, were great. My boyfriend wanted Mexican food, and we have gone to the Casa Del Barco on the Canal Walk several times. This was our first time coming to the Short Pump location. Had I known what was in store, I would have made other arrangements. First and foremost, the dining room layout for the night was ridiculous. We were so close to the people at our sides that even the table next to us complained to the server. We were mostly silent during our meals as there was no way we could have a remotely private conversation. I work in hospitality management, and this dining room arrangement demonstrates clearly poor judgement among your management team; prioritizing quantity over a quality experience. In addition, when the food runner brought out my meal, he spilled grease on me. Luckily, I was still wearing my rain jacket and it didn’t get on my clothes. He was very apologetic, and it really wasn’t a big deal, but it certainly didn’t make an already bad experience any better. By the time the bill was presented, I was so ready to get out of your establishment that I didn’t even look at the bill. Upon checking my statement today, the bill came to $90+ (presumably including the 22% gratuity I selected for our server). I was prepared to spend double that on dinner for Valentines, but given the experience it just felt like a ripoff.
