Wow!! Absolutely amazing restaurant and bar! Flew in late last night and wanted a fun place with atmosphere to have appetizers and drinks. This was the perfect place!! Outdoor or indoor patio with mist kept is cool and refreshed. Loved the dim lighting and the modern decor! So inviting and relaxing. Fresh flowers on the tables and comfortable chairs. Very good service ! Excellent food! Tasty drinks that were visually appealing!! I’ll definitely go back ! Julio

Recent reviews highlight the amazing dinner experience, with guests mentioning the gorgeous patio with mountain views and warm, friendly service that makes the night special. The food, especially the short rib empanadas and squash blossoms, was described as fresh, creative, and thoughtfully prepared. The cocktails are also highly praised, with the bar staff showing expertise and skill. The overall vibe, flavors, and atmosphere are said to come together perfectly, making it a highly recommended spot for date nights, celebrations, or just treating oneself.
Some visitors mention that the outdoor heaters create a pleasant environment, even on cooler evenings. The food remains excellent, comparable to their sister location, and service is noted as superb, including attentive table leveling. However, there are occasional long waits between seating, ordering drinks, and food, especially when the bar staff is new or busy. The restaurant's location can be tricky to find, with entry off Barristo and no clear doorway until calling for directions. Despite these minor issues, Clandestino continues to be a favorite for many, offering a flavorful and enjoyable dining experience.
