La Bodega is a very special spot with beautiful decor and an incredible vibe. The space is unique, featuring a lush greenhouse and a view of a steel train car through the glass. The staff is extremely nice and hardworking, making the experience even better. Guests enjoy a variety of delicious food, including empanadas, grilled octopus, and mushrooms, with everything feeling fresh and made with love. The menu offers popular dishes like chivito, milanesa, parrilla, carrots, and the Wood Grilled Poussin Chicken, which are all highly praised. The duck, which must be requested 48 hours in advance, is fantastic and highly recommended. The meat plate with sausage, ribeye, and chicken is juicy and satisfying. The cocktails are well crafted and interesting, with drinks like the Fig Infused Bourbon Old Fashioned being a hit. The bar offers unique drinks like Jamaican Pilsner, and the bartender is creative. Portions are small, so ordering a few dishes or tapas is recommended, especially if not sharing. The octopus is nicely charred, and clever tapas often include unexpected twists like chimichurri. Guests have expressed love for the steak and sausage, finding them very tasty. The atmosphere is cozy and classy, making La Bodega a great place to enjoy quality food and friendly service. Despite some dishes being average, the overall experience is enjoyable and worth visiting, especially for its atmosphere, good food, and welcoming staff.
