This review suggests it is 🤔
I’m going to book it and if it’s not properly signed up then we’ll cancel nearer the time.
I agree it’s a rip off but then so is a ropey character buffet and we all do it! 🤷

That’s very true but $20 dollars when a similar cocktail at a higher end restaurant at home is around £8 is a fairer comparison and I still think it’s overpriced.

Wise words. I am all for Companies making a decent profit and I roll with the price of drinks. But there is a World of difference in making a good profit as opposed to ripping people off.

I quite like the look of the menu. Will we go there? Not a chance in hell.

The dis unplugged review confirmed it is on DDP as a two credit signature.

My feelings exactly. Love the look of the food and cocktails, just feel its a rip off.

Watched the dis unplugged review on YouTube - they had a few small plates, shared an entree and had a dessert each and called it around $200 after tip with no AP or TIW discount. So it appears comparable to other signatures however they both admitted they weren’t particularly full and could still go another plate which would be unusual for me following a $200 meal for two.

That is ridiculous.

There is a review on another site similar to this one.

Their bill was $400!

However take a look at this. $45 for a wooden board full of god awful fat. I wouldn't pay 45 cents for that.

The 2 slices of bread look lost, please tell me that's not all you get?

Ha! Hopefully there’s more bread in a basket out of shot?!
I would never pay $400 for tapas but if we can use credits then we’ll give it a go.
OH loves authentic tapas so he’s looking forward to it! I hope he isn’t disappointed 😬

I often find tapas massively underwhelming, including in Spain, normally leaving me hungry . Eating potatoes in sauce, calamari (and other fried foods) and hams doesn't do much for me personally but at these prices it certainly doesn't. Best one I've ever been to is a fantastic Italian Tapas on Castle Street Liverpool (they have a Spanish one in the City also). It was fantastic and about £5-7 a dish, not these prices!

I am guessing if it is a signature on the DDP the tapas wont be included it will be the main meals and a dessert. Not sure if they offer the Tapas how that would work unless it’s the set taster ones which are very expensive per head
