    Bodega Rose has great atmosphere and decor. The food was fantastic I loved the dish sharing experience. It’s a great way to try a few different dishes. And the service and staff were impeccable. Definitely going back

    I really loved this restaurant when my girlfriends and I went last year. So, I decided to host my 25th birthday dinner there with friends. I was really embarrassed bringing my friends there after the poor service received. Our drinks took a long time to come out, & our food took an extremely long time. Our dishes all came out at different times over a period of nearly 10 minutes, so by the time all the food came out and we started eating, half the food was getting cold. My sister didn’t get her order at all, and it had to be submitted to the kitchen after everyone else had their dishes. If it were busy, we’d totally get it, we’ve worked in the industry before. But, our server was behind the bar chatting with other employees a lot of the time (I don’t know her name, but she mentioned multiple times she usually doesn’t work there?). Nobody came to check in on how our food was. One of the girls wanted to order more food, but didn’t get the chance because nobody was checking on our table. Our plates weren’t being cleared so the table was a mess. We waited long for water refills & to order more cocktails. The night just felt like a drag. My friend had to go to the bar to ask for dessert menus; we weren’t offered them. We then got dessert and paid the bills. I asked for a to-go box for my cake. After about 10 minutes of waiting for the box, another server came over and rudely told my friend (not even myself, who booked the party), that we need to leave as someone else is waiting for the table. We felt so uncomfortable because we were actually waiting on them to bring the box. After leaving, everyone from my party mentioned the discomfort we felt during this meal. I’m really not a complainer, and I’ve worked in the industry in the past, so I let a lot of things slide because I get it. Although this dinner was so incredibly awkward and uncomfortable for the whole party, I would not recommend this restaurant again.
