Pata Negra in Bristol, City of

La comida era muy agradable, pero desde el principio, la camarera era miserable y grosero. Cuando llegó la factura, fue grosera con mi amigo cuando dijo que no podía leer la máquina de lectura de tarjetas. Lástima porque la comida era preciosa pero arruinó la noche...

¡Muy caro, especialmente porque el menú no incluye impuestos! Después de impuestos y cargo de servicio un pequeño plato de sushi 'Tempura' que tenía 2 pequeñas piezas de tempura en, el costo total no era de £ 13 sino £ 17. 55 así que ten en cuenta que no recibes lo que crees que estás pagando. Muy engañoso, no vivimos en los Estados Unidos, por lo que los impuestos deben incluirse como de costumbre o establecerse claramente en el menú. La comida estaba bien, un poco soso y tacaño en la salsa. No volvería a menos que se hicieran mejoras.

Mi hijo había visto las críticas y quería probar este restaurante así que me invitó a almorzar. Salmón y entrante de sushi de gambas - No soy un fan de las gambas por lo general, pero wow me encantó! Dan Dan tallarines - fantástico! Absolutamente maravilloso! El personal es muy acogedor y amable

En una tarde agradable pub repleta de mi sobrino, y decidimos comer aquí, ya que el menú se veía tan bien mientras estábamos tomando una copa.

He estado queriendo ir a Cuatro Monos Sabios por algún tiempo, y finalmente tuve la oportunidad de ir allí para almorzar hoy. No me decepcionó - decoración funky, personal súper amable, gran gama vegetariana, ingredientes naturales y comida muy sabrosa. Le prometí a mi esposa que la llevaría allí para probarlo, probablemente un fin de semana, ya que tengo entendido que tienen DJ tocando entonces. También será una buena oportunidad para probar los cócteles.

The foods amazing from here I order frequently but I went to the location today and it was like a hotbox the air was so stuffy and the tables where beyond sticky I didn’t even want to put my elbows on it. My cocktail tasted like medicine if that’s what the spec sheet wanted then you’re bang on track. Wouldn’t come back the prices are soooo expensive for what it’s worth, £11 for two bao buns????

Our first visit but not our last. We had a splendid meal and a lovely welcome. Some places look really offended when you ask if they could turn the music down. Not here! Really interesting food.

A great restaurant where the food is amazing, service is wonderful, with a lovely atmosphere. The pork rib starters were particularly delicious. We had a table of 13 people and chose the £28 per head set menu. The food was great quality, although not plentiful and hence the slightly lower score for VFM. Despite that - I will return to try some things outside of the set menu - although the ribs will be ordered!

The food is very good but I would say overall this restaurant is quite overpriced. The lunch menu seems like a good deal beforehand, but then the drinks are quite expensive (£6.60 for a can cider) and a 12.50% is added to the final bill as service charge, which was not disclosed before handling out the bill and I ended up paying without realising. I am not sure why I have to pay 12.50% extra for having the food delivered to the table, when the waiter did not even check if everything was ok afterwards. I would think this is basic service and would not have to pay extra for it. To sum up, even I really enjoy the food and atmosphere, I would not be coming back, it all felt like a rip-off and the service was not great.

We booked through first table to get an early pre show discount booking. You book for 5pm which gives you plenty of time to enjoy dinner and a few drinks before heading over to the hippodrome which is just a few minutes walk away. You get 50% off your food bill which makes it amazing value. Really great food, lovely indoor and outdoor seating and fab drinkies and really good service. Our offer made it amazing value. Thank for a great start to our evening.

I ordered the pork ramen after not having the boa bun in. Maybe the biggest regret of my life? For 15£ I had some very weird tasting noodles which just seemed off which I find difficult because it's noodles and can't wrap my head around how you can do them wrong. We was sat at the table for 15mins with half eaten food away from us and no one came over the take it away and Christ I felt sick. Luckily we got the dish free but wouldn't recommend. Additionally the broth was cold :)

Fantastic place found in Bristol. Food was absolutely lovely and very well priced. The one thing I will say is please get an air con or open a window. Many people were a little upset due to the heat of the place.

Wow! Amazing food and such a cool, quirky vibe! Can highly recommend the pork Dan Dan noodles, curry fries and tonkotsu Ramen. I can’t wait to go back and try the Korean chicken burger, it looks unreal!

Absolutely amazing food - slightly on the pricey side but you do get what you pay for! Excellent variety of dishes and well worth a visit if you like your Asian food

First visit here and will be returning for sure Menu has lots of options, Curry fries were amazing and nothing has compared to them since They are a must to order If looking for 5* restaurant this isn’t the place for you If looking for a Chilled relaxed vibe to have good food and drinks you need to visit Couldn’t fault our visit

Good food, very poorly managed. We were surrounded in staff who were more interested in their mobile phones and each other than serving their biggest table. Sorry not to be positive, nice enough people but zero management or leadership as far as I could see….

What a brilliant place. Amazing service from start to finish. Funky decor. The food was absolutely brilliant! Loved the gyoza and the pork Dan Dan noodles. It's the best food I have ever eaten!!! It tasted delicious, and I would highly recommend this venue to anyone. Cannot wait to return :-) Also we had a nice chilled sauvignon blanc which was reasonably priced!

So disappointed. We came here a week ago for my wife’s birthday and it was less than average. The tables were dirty, the place was more like a student bar than a restaurant. The portions were tiny and the food nothing special and the overall bill was extortionate for the average food and overall disappointing experience. The website and Instagram page make the place look a hundred times better than it is which I’m guessing is how they get people through the door! I spent the whole time staring at Poh over the road wishing I had booked there :(

Visited this restaurant while visiting Bristol. We have nothing as adventurous as Korean food where we live so we thought we would give it a try. We didn't have a booking and the restaurant was fairly busy but we were shown straight to a table by a lovely waitress. I suspect, based on customers that evening we (in our 50's) are older than the usual customer base- most others were in their 20's. We did wait quite a while for our food, but when it arrived it was really tasty. The portion size wasnt overly generous, but as we had had a big lunch that day they were perfect for what we wanted. It was quite pricey for both food and drink , which surprised me as it had quite a student vibe Overall good food and service- something different for us and if there was a rating in between Average and Very Good (ie Good) i would place it there.

For a restaurant that was pretty empty (only 3 tables at 5:30 on a Wednesday) the service was poor. Had to get the barman’s attention to get an order in as after 10-15 mins no one had even taken a drinks order. He took our food and drink order. Food came out quickly and was hot and honestly so lovely! We cleared our own plates to the side and a waitress came to collect them half of them. We asked to order a few more dishes, she said she would clear and come back. She never came back and never cleared the rest of the plates so we had to ask again. All in all the waiting staff were lazy and would rather just have a chat. Considering the street food/tapas relaxed style of dining regardless of table size there is a service charge automatically added which is discretionary, it is wasn’t food my kind friend I wouldn’t have paid it as I think the service was poor. Such a shame for the people to let the food down.

Great service. Friendly quick and helpful in menu suggestions. Food was GREAT Bought a jacket as their merch is all awesome

Went here for dinner and the food was amazing but after seeing the chef come out of the kitchen and talk to his friend whilst rolling some tobacco up infront of me was quite disgusting. Service was also very average to say there were less than a handful of tables in the restaurant.

Average food and worse service. I can’t believe the same people behind 7 Lucky Gods came up with this. I won’t be going again

Struggling to review a place that doesn't respond to numerous website requests to book a table for 12, nor do they answer the phone number listed online.

Arrived for lunch no one else was in the restaurant. We were sat down quickly however service was not great staff seemed more interested in closing up for the day and didn’t seem that familiar with any of the menu when asking questions. The food...

Had a Friday lunch reservation for 5 people. Got there on time and the restaurant looked fairly quiet so was quite surprised to have to wait to be seated… although just having the table pointed out to us and not given menus was more surprising....

I rocked up without booking and was shown to a table next to the air con, which I gratefully accepted! I chose this place from all of the others because it was the first place I've ever seen with Dan Dan noodles on the menu....

Food incredible, staff polite and aware of timing needs - really wonderful place to enjoy some really incredible flavours - thank you!

Not only is the food full of flavour with some subtle tastes and the staff really welcoming, but also Sabina is such a wonderful host. Will be back soon to eat and chat

Surely in the top 2-3 restaurants in Bristol! Amazing food and great service. Savina, the head chef, is absolutely delightful and made sure we were stuffed by the time we left! Thanks to all staff.

My friends and I went here for a Friday evening meal, a very friendly restaurant, lovely decor and live music! The food was good, well presented with quality ingredients but it did not live up to the reviews I’ve heard. It was very tasty but...

A disappointing experience. Some of the food was not tasty. The waitress over charged us although we were entitled to the lunch deal. Didn’t bother to ask why we didn’t touch some of the dishes. I really can’t recommend a place with such a poor...

Very interesting Korean food and great cocktails.The service was good and friendly too.It’s pretty loud in there be warned but worth the visit

Had heard great things about this place, especially about the Pork Dan Dan and while the food was ok, there were enough other things to put me off going back. For starters, it took us forever to get our drinks - so much so that...

Not sure why there are so many 1 star reviews. Food great, staff nice. Not sure why there is an automatic 12.5% service charge though.

The food was awful, the service even worse. I Suppose they spent a long time thinking about how cool it could look with no regard toward actually serving good food or at least giving people a good experience. The staff just hangs about with no...

If you want to get bad service, disrespected, patronised and money taken from you without your knowledge in the form of un-consensual tip taking…go to Four Wise Monkeys The service is awful. Two young lads there have bad attitudes, The other staff either ignore you...

Came here with friends for a nice meal out. Sadly, and I know this makes me sound old, but having a DJ blasting music at a volume thats far more akin to a nightclub than a restaurant did make for difficult conversation at our table....

I don't mind paying more than I can afford on occasion for good food but I HATE paying more than I can afford for food that doesn't warrant it. Soft shell crab was bland and greasy, fries were tiny, the veggie salad was quite nice...

After wanting to try some more independent restaurants around bristol I stumbled across Four Wise Monkeys and booked for my boyfriend and I to visit for dinner. Firstly, I’d like to say that the atmosphere of the restaurant is really cool. Staff were friendly and...

When its tough to get a table, you kinda know that something right is going on ... and these guys nailed it when we visited. Love the concept, vibe, simple and delicious menu and funky staff. The website is very cool. A brilliant playlist sits...

The food was good, nothing bad but nothing amazing either. No real stand outs just a very meh experience food wise. The service was not great. We ordered 2 cocktails and they were ridiculously strong and not an enjoyable experience. It was okay but I...

Really enjoyed this place. Great quick bites - the highlights being the Korean chicken burger and the chips with katsu curry. Cracking ribs too. I had I tasty whisky cocktail called an Iron Monkey. Friendly staff, vibrant decor and good funky tunes too

Myself and a group of friends visited hoping for some big things with another new eatery in bristol with its sister branch doing so well in wapping wharf was hoping for more of the same . Sadly feel let down by four wise monkeys nothing...

We visited for lunch and were excited by the menu. When we got there and sat down our table was dirty and sticky. The staff were not very attentive. One thing I’d recommend is do not order the tofu sando. It had the weirdest taste...

This was our fifth visit here, and every time it’s superb. Food and drinks are unique, there’s always something you will never get elsewhere. The new yuzu and white chocolate cheesecake is divine! The staff are always friendly and attentive without ever being invasive.

I love Seven Lucky Gods and had heard about their sister restaurant so have been keen to go. We managed to pop in as walk-in guest this evening and ordered five dishes to share. Portion wise it was ample for two people, but they all...

The service was exceptional, with the waitress providing some games for our toddler keeping him very happy during our meal. Attentive staff with a great food to boot.

Georgia was amazing. Advised us on the best vegan options and also the best wine to go with it. Promotion overdue x

How is this averaging only 4 stars? Ridiculously good food. Great vibe. Golden era hop on a monday eve. Alexander our host was informative and helpful. Cannot big the food up enough. Might be the first review ive ever left. Made me start writing this...

The menu sounds exciting and tasty but I'm afraid thats where it ends. Everything was bland and uninspiring, the staff are not attentive either. And the worse thing was when I asked to take the tip off as the service did not warrant it we...

I would say if this review was based on staff and atmosphere it would be easily a 5. The staff were very welcoming and the atmosphere and decor inside is very nice and fitting of thr cuisine but this review is based on the quality...

Luckily the waitress was lovely. However, the food was horrible. Paid £75 altogether for frozen chicken chucked in a deep fryer. The chicken was tough with no actual meat on it, gyozas was horrid, duck was frozen and again, chucked in a fryer (hard/chewy) I’d...

The food was simply incredible! I couldn’t fault it. Every single dish tasted incredible and I will definitely be coming back for more. Shame I don’t live in Bristol though..

Thread carefully..ask questions before ordering...make sure all food is fresh and made on the day. My friend and I who havent seen each other since the start of lockdown finally met for a rendezvous and decided to try the restaurant for dinner. Since it was...

Managed to bag a table at 8.30pm on bank holiday Sunday, food was amazing. The prices seem steep to some going by some other reviews but you get what you pay for, and that is great food, great portions, and great service. It was absolutely...

The food is really tasty and a member of our group is veggie and there was plenty of choice! Some of the portions were a little small (kimchi fries). That iberico sando is to die for. Think I’ve told everyone I know to go there...

Average greesy fast food style food unfortunately. Not authentic and the standard fake Asian meals. Don’t bother

The menu has a section for "dim sum" but not a single item in this section could be classed as a dim sum dish. If the owners going to profit from "pan Asian" dishes then they could at least get that right. That's not really...

visited this restaurant with very high hopes and to say the least this is the most i’ve ever been disappointed by a food establishment. Overpriced, cold, tiny portions, rude staff that didn’t deserve the automatically added service charge and £5 for a tiny glass of...

If you are looking for a Spanish Tapas restaurant, forget it because it no longer exists. The strange thing is that we made the reservation and we were not informed at all! I paid for parking and had to look for another restaurant outside the...

Pata Negra located on St Nicholas St apart from being a great place to eat has split-sign cast over two streets of a pig, marvellous.

I enjoyed my meal here although I wish there were more tapas options on the menu. It is also in a great location

Well... what can we say..??!! Just called in for a quick vino as it seemed to be one of the only establishments still welcoming visitors. Ordered two glasses of red... half price...!! Was asked if we wanted another? Daft not to. Then waitress comes over...

Had not booked and they found us a table on a Saturday evening @ 5pm and the only stipulation was that we were finished by 7:30pm as we were going to the Theatre this was not a problem. Service was quick and food exceptional. Highly...

We were passing by outside and it got our attention so we decided to come in and have a wine, it has really good music and the wine it was really nice aswell we decided to have a look at the menu and got really...

Arrived with two friends to be told the grill had broken down, meaning quite a few of the items on the menu were unavailable. No matter we thought, there are plenty of tapas that don’t require a grill. How wrong we were. Had the shared...

Was ok, didn’t have few items on the menu but they did let us before hand! All tapas was pretty average

Good for larger groups...maybe not for that intimate first date!! A good selection of tapas, including for vegetarian and vegan diners. A reasonable selection of drinks...but could do with a greater selection of sherry to match the tapas. Overall, pretty decent and worth a visit.

In truth it’s difficult to quite put my finger on what I didn’t like but just not quite the full tapas experience. Relatively limited menu and I have truly never been to a tapas restaurant that doesn’t have balsamic vinegar for bread. Service was ok. Don’t get me wrong what we had was quite nice but I am struggling to be any more effusive about this place.

Went here for dinner after trip to the theatre. Staff were attentive and offered helpful suggestions about food and wine selection. The food was good with decent portions. The lamb chops and chicken wings were particularly tasty.If you are going to try dessert, I would highly recommend the chocolate and olive oil cremoso (decent size, so one to share if you're trying to be good?!)Also very reasonable price when considering portion sizes and comparing to other similar tapas restaurants.

Recomendado. Dirigido aquí para algunas tapas pre - teatro. No había estado en Bristol antes y algunas de las malas críticas casi me desanimaron, pero me alegro de no haberlo hecho. No como carne roja, pero había muchas opciones y uno de los platos fue alterado para mí. El servicio fue eficiente y amable. La comida se lavó con un poco de rojo encantador - Wongo Dongo - y terminamos con un poco de affogato pero servido con jerez en lugar de amaretto. Maravilloso.

Food and service average at best with a limited menu. Even the tapas staples weren't great. Wouldn't visit again.

If I was going to start a restaurant, bar or cafe, I would poach John for my front of house. The food is excellent too, but the music could do with being turned down...can we have a music-free night?

Nice tapas place with some more unusual dishes and delicious sangria - both white and red. Went early on a Saturday evening and service was efficient and not over attentive

Let’s face it, it’s hard to get Patatas Bravas wrong - fried potatoes and flavoured mayo right? Try tasteless and unappealing. We went for the platter for all of us - easy choice, standard fayre, can’t go wrong? Right? Wrong! Won’t be back.

Good food for reasonable prices in Bristol I will definitely return but the service can improve a bit I think

First visit so glad we found it, Great professional staff food was excellent will certainly return soon.

Visited here tonight for tapas. Had the shared tapas £25 each and bottle of house wine £22. Wine just ok. Food, ummm quite bland, read came with oil so asked for balsamic, along came a jug of malt vinegar. The garlic prawn was nice as was the lamb chop. Everything else was just bland, no flavour. £40 a head I could have had a good steak meal with wine. Safely say won’t be recommending or returning.

We visited for dinner and were extremely disappointed by the quality of tapas served.. selection of cured meats, potatoes with a dash of some kind of garlic sauce and the most awful croquettes filled with gristle.

We stumbled upon Pata Negra on a cold evening and decided to give it a try. Wonderful selection of tapas at good prices. The atmosphere is warm and the staff was very friendly. Loved everything we tried.

Tapas before watching the Lion King and initial feeling on seeing the menu I was concerned that there was not enough choice and there wouldn’t be enough food. I was proved wrong and am happy to say that the food was lovely. The charcuterie was stunning as was the cheese board. The best for me was the lamb chops and the croquettes but all the food was very good. Service was excellent and very friendly and a lovely atmosphere. Will go back

We visited based on recommendations from friends, the atmosphere in the restaurant is great with low lighting and friendly staff. The tapas menu was good with many favourites to choose from. A very enjoyable evening.

Personale cortese. Posto carino. Rapporto prezzo qualità decisamente elevato. C'è di meglio nei dintorni senza dissanguarsi

Les tapas sont bonnes (un peu déçus des patatas bravas en revanche), les serveurs sympa ! Un bon moment !

Nice inside, Staff ok, although the ‘chefs’(I use the term very loosely) seemed more interested in chatting to a friend sitting at the bar, but the size of the portions is shocking(I had to go and get more food down on the harbour and I’m slim)and not much to say other than very poor food, grilled broccoli is just that covered after cooking with raw garlic in oil, beef skewers were heavily salted, tiny and sooo chewy and then 2 prawns for 7 quid(just seemed like no pride in what they’ve doing, lazy)Ordered three dishes and a small beer came to over £25. Wished i’d Of gone somewhere else, as not like there isn’t a lot of choice in the area.

Our first visit to the Pata Negra. The variety of food is exceptional, it was perfectly cooked and tasted delicious. The atmosphere and decor are casual and relaxing, with lovely distressed touches. Finally, our server, John Dean was superb...thanks!

We visited Pata Negra as a family following my son’s graduation. The food we ordered was absolutely delicious without exception but what set the visit apart were the staff. One of our group was unwell and the staff were helpful, sympathetic and really accommodating. Wonderful to experience such kindness. Thank you

Another fantastic meal at Pata Negra, made even better with 30% off the food bill!

Excellent service by really friendly and helpful staff. The food and and ambiance was amazing, can’t wait to go back!

Hard to understand exactly what the menu item actually are and we asked the waiter what things were but were still

We stayed near Pata Negra, and after walking by a few times, we decided to pop in. On the surface, it looks great and the dishes on the menu hint at proper authentic tapas. We ordered a fish/veggie selection and for the prices paid, we were massively disappointed. Many of the dishes were very basic, and entailed nothing more than arranging stuff on a plate. For example, we had the anchovies which were lovely but we've have experienced something of a similar quality purchased from a supermarket - for a fraction of the price and for a larger quantity. The flavours for most other dishes also didn't work for us and were just mediocre than anything special.

We went for the prawns, vegetables and manchego, calamari, spinach and chickpeas and octopus ( which was so good we had to get it twice)! The food was all very fresh and flavour were divine! Texture of all the seafood dishes were on point and it all came within a Good time. The white wine was delicious and the man serving us was friendly gave honest and good recommendations! In Putney looking for tapas ? Look no further!

The food here is really good and every dish I have had has been exquisite, however it is very expensive for what it is. The staff are friendly but often rushed off their feet so service can be slow in terms of ordering and getting the bill but the food comes very quickly. A good option if you are in the area.

Después de pasear por los muelles y la ciudad, tuvimos un gran almuerzo estilo tapas. Jugosas chuletas de cordero, espárragos crujientes, delicada merluza con habas, guisantes, etc., tomates perfectamente maduros en un delicioso aderezo. No necesitaba las bravas de Patata que eran picantes y más elegantes. Bonita botella de vino, helado y affagato para seguir. Buena comida con excelente servicio amable y eficiente. Disfrutamos de nosotros mismos. Tal vez un poco oscuro

Before that I knew a bit of Spanish cuisine. And I say 100% that this place reflects it perfectly. A real masterpiece. Great products and tasty dishes. Nothing more nothing less. We will definitely be back. 10/10

Visité hoy después de ver el menú en el sitio web de patanegra, muy decepcionado al ver que el menú era muy limitado, pero lo peor de todos los precios no era como lo anuncian (más caro) el camarero dijo que no estaban haciendo nada mal, ya que no era ilegal, no hace falta Digamos que salimos por principio, recomiendo que no visiten.

Llamamos aquí a las nueve de la noche y el lugar estaba bastante lleno, pero obtuvimos un gran asiento en el bar. Acabo de pedir jamón, queso, pan y un buen vaso de rojo. Todo fue excelente. La camarera que nos cuidó fue amable, eficiente y eficiente. Amamos España, es vino y es cocina y es gente. Este lugar lo tiene justo.

Visited with business colleagues while staying in Bristol. Great atmosphere, friendly welcome and a good wine list too. It's not a huge menu but the food is really good and packed full of flavour! All fresh and very tasty. Like many other reviewers have mentioned, it's a bit pricey but then I guess the standard of food justifies it. Will visit again for sure!

The restaurant has a very authentic atmosphere. However, that is about it. The food was overpriced and re-heated from the day before whilst the service wasn't much better. The squid we ordered was lukewarm, flavourless and tiny. Zero authenticity. The manager was obnoxious and the waitress was very poor. Management wasn't even interested in the fact we were not happy with the quality of the food. For the price that is charged, I would recommend anywhere else than Pata Negra. The worst meal I have eaten in the 2 years I have lived in Bristol.
