   Poor service, expensive food and drinks (for what they are), limited vegetarian options, lacking atmosphere. Actually cannot find a good word to say about this place other than perhaps to say that the staff weren’t rude! I’d booked it for my wife’s birthday. Never again.

   First time at Decimo, and no doubt we'll be back again soon! Fantastic views of the city, and great service - felt very well looked after and the food was divine. Went for the tacos for starters and pork chop as main course - wine and drinks selection was spot on, and a perfect end to the day for my wife and I after a visit to the theatre. Would recommend :)

   Very nice and cosy atmosphere, particularly appreciated having dinner close to the fireplace, friendly crowd and nice waiters, you will feel very welcome ! From a culinary experience, menu choice is rather limited, and quite expensive for what you have in the plate.

   We came for Xmas lunch. It was quite frustrating as they were having some problems in the kitchen meaning both food and drinks came out quite slowly and sporadically. The waiting staff were nice and apologetic and (at my suggestion) gave us the drinks on the house. It’s a cool ambiance but we were had to back home by a certain time so we didn’t have unlimited time to hang out

   We ended up sitting right under the AC, and when I asked if we could move, they informed me that the only other seats were for a table of four, so we had to stay put. They promised to turn down the AC, which they did for a brief three minutes before cranking it back up again. Now, wouldn't you know it—I caught a cold right before Christmas! It wasn’t the best experience, to say the least!

   A real surprise up in the 10th floor. Perfect place for a dinner for two or a group vibe. Buzzing and lively yet cosy and intimate spaces at the same time. A real find.

   The food wasn’t as good as last year when we visited.

   The food was nice when it arrived. But it took 3 attempts and over an hour and a half to have hot food - despite ordering from the lunchtime set menu. The alcohol free cocktails were good but then they confused the dessert order and forgot the coffee. Well designed menu but the execution is just not there.

   Decimo is not a typical Michelin Star restaurant - there are no foams, gels or sophisticated plating arrangements - but the food and wine is really good, the service professional and attentive, and the atmosphere warm and lively. We started by sharing a black bean and fried plantain taco and a tuna tostada, which were tricky to share, but delicious. Then we an Iberico pork chop and a beef fillet, sharing patatas bravas, marinated tomatoes and hispi cabbage - all really good. Best patatas bravas ever! For drinks we started with the house champagne, then Chablis with the pork, and merlot with the beef - all really good quality. A lovely night out.

    Food lovely but service very slow. Would come again but maybe try dinner instead of lunch.
