El Reposo

This was my 1st and last visit to this restaurant. We weren't there 10min and the manager walked over to our table and told us that if we're going get chips and dip then we would have to pay for them. My wife was in awwe and felt very disrespected! We planned to get something small but also order drinks. I felt that was very rude. I don't know if it's because we are African American, as the restaurant had predominantly Caucasian guests at the time of our visit. I've never been treated like that. We were also with our two young daughters which made them feel very uncomfortable.

We had a reservation for our large party. It started off shaky as we were ignored for several minutes at the door. Several staff members approached the hostess' stand and were standing at the computer by the door. The bartender (who became our waitress) came from behind the bar.....and seated AND waited on our party. We had a wonderful time. Our waitress, Ms. Aided, was kind and patient, all while she worked her heiney off. There were 40 of us, including about 20 hungry, impatient, growing teens, and she was our only server. She had someone help her to bring a few meals to the table. Ms. Aided also covered the bar and other tables. Ms. Aided's head was spinning, and she was visibly exhausted, yet she managed to maintain her beautiful demeanor and kind smile. I wish El Reposo had more staff that night and more help for her. People were going behind the bar getting their own drinks off tap. I worked alongside Ms. Aided as I ran back and forth to help her bring plates and silverware, figure out orders, refill drinks, and sort out payments. Her service was great. El Reposo is a nice relaxed restaurant however, needs help.
