The Pink Chihuahua

Awful food and service. The first sign we should have left was the whole place smells like fried food, which makes up a lot of what is offered, which was partly my mistake for not noticing that when I previewed the menu online. The menus were greasy and not up to date. My clothes still smell two hours after leaving. The food quality was very poor. In our party we tried many things and understand how tapas restaurants work but the timing was terrible. As far as quality goes the shrimp came on lettuce that looked like it would be served at a school lunch. The vegetables that came with the spare ribs definitely were frozen bag vegetables. The half rack of ribs was a total of four ribs was little to no meat. I could go on and on but the food was terrible, overpriced, and equally poor service, who never ever offered to refill our drinks and didn't check back with us after our food arrived. We were there almost two hours. We saw other unhappy tables and the owner told me there were three tables that complained.

We came for a weekend at starved rock and caught a drag show and some tasty tapas. The cocktails were good and strong. You can tell the owner really cares he checks on his customers. We will be back whenever we visit! Get the pork belly quesadilla and the brie!

The food was good but over priced, especially considering it's small plates/tapas meaning you'd need to order a few different items to make it a meal. The menu w9as very over whelming, there's cuisine from all around the word which sounds nice in theory but it actually made it very confusing. Also, the service was very slow even though it was me and my husband and one other couple in the entire restaurant. Response to owner: I have enjoyed tapas many times and completely understand the meal being longer than normal, but when I said service was slow I was referring to the fact that it took over 20 minutes to get one plate of bruschetto when there were only 4 people in the restaurant. After now seeing your responses to people who didn't enjoy your restaurant I have to say I'm even more disappointed. I don't know anyone who would want to go to a restaurant where the owner is condescending and standoffish.

Horrible. Waited over an hour for food that had no flavor. Place wasn’t even busy. Our group didn’t get their food at the same time. First entree came out and the last person in our group got their food 15 minutes later. Very hard to pay such a price for complete s#%! food and a water glass that never got refilled. It’s very worth your time to wait for Bash or Tangled Roots.

Terrible HORRIBLE customer service. It took 15 minutes on a Sunday to get ketchup and bbq sauce. We were the first people seated. It took 40 minutes just to get an order in. We can hear them from across the restaurant talking about us. Not to mention our table was dirty and there were napkins under my feet. I wouldn’t recommend it. And to make matters worse: just to get more money out of use they upcharged us on the drinks.
