I loved the Manhattan location—I’ve been there five times! I even told my boyfriend to come because they’re usually great. But I don’t know what went wrong this time. The bartender came over twice, and it really felt like they were trying hard to push us out 🥹. They brought us the check while we still had full glasses of wine.
We were thinking to order more.

My boyfriend and I have visited this establishment twice, and unfortunately, both times we were completely ignored. Most recently, yesterday we sat at the bar and were not acknowledged or offered any service by the female bartender despite it not being busy. As locals, we genuinely wanted to support a neighborhood spot and gave it a second chance, but the consistent lack of attentiveness from the staff left us feeling unwelcome. Certainly, we will not be returning.

Great date spot, but pricey. I love this place when it’s a little slower.

The food and wine was nice but severely overpriced. Two croquettes for $11 doesn’t feel right

We had a great happy hour here! Our waiter gave us the best service (guy with pink streak in his beard) We really felt taken care of. We ordered the happy hour martinis, oysters (small but delicious), patatas bravas, and the sardines. All were delicious.

This location used to be dramatically better than the lower east side location but today it felt like a lot of staff recently quit. the caesar salad was water logged and it took 20 minutes to bring us a side of bread that we ordered at the beginning of our meal. i used to really love ten bells dispute the service because the food would hit but unfortunately that may no longer be the case.

Good wine, cool vibes!
Croquettes were really tasty

This wine bar is a great spot to head to if you’re looking for a happy hour in Bushwick! The seafood is very fresh and the spanish style tapas almost makes you feel as if you were dining in Europe. I highly recommend the octopus. It comes with a yummy sauce and a decent sized portion of oily potatoes. The flavors paired so well together and I highly recommend ordering this one for the table. The wine was also incredible and so was the service. Thank you for a wonderful experience. 6/5 for sure!

this is hands down the worst restaurant i’ve eaten at in the 8 years i’ve been living in brooklyn. it’s giving Fridays at the airport for sure. first of all it took almost 30 minutes for the server to finish organizing the menus for an empty house to take our order only to forget what we ordered because he didn’t write anything down only to return twice to ask what we had ordered cause he forgot. you needed a magnifying glass just to see the shishito peppers and the $14 artichoke dip came in a petri dish with a side of canned sourdough chips from 1978. i know im being silly in this review but it’s only only way im going to be okay with spending what did for literal garbage. seriously there are so many even half decent places that are better than this place and are actually reasonably priced.

I tried to contact the restaurant about an unauthorized tip on my card and they don't care so I'll have to be the person that writes a bad review. On September 30th, I went to ten bells with my friend. We split the bill, she left her tip on her card while I left cash. However, both of our cards were charged for the tip. So I ended up leaving a double tip. On October 1st, I contacted the restaurant with receipts and asked to be reimbursed for my tip. They didnt respond, so on October 14th I followed up. They responded on the 16th asking for more time. I didnt hear anything back, so I followed up again on October 25th. I haven't heard anything since. I have worked in restaurants for the past 12 years - an unauthorized tip is a very serious professional offense and looks horrendous on the business, so anytime such thing has happened in any of the restaurants I have worked in, it is handled immediately, often with a bonus of a free entree or the check being taken care of entirely. I really don't like being the person leaving a bad review with screenshots, unfortunately that's the only way to get a business's attention. I would like this matter to be resolved promptly.
