Reviews of Pincho Tapas Bar on Escape?

[gzmtlock]

Anyone have experience with Pincho Tapas Bar on the Escape?  I've read a lot of good things about Food Republic, but am also interested in Pincho.

For us, it has some of the best food on the ship.

Funny you should ask. On our recent 16 day cruise on the Escape, most of time the place was empty. Yes, this was during dinner time when all of the other restaurants were busy. In fact, it became a game to see if anyone would ever go there. In 16 days, we only saw a total of four people eating there. Maybe we just walked by at the wrong times, but we did walk by it a lot in the evenings.

 

It may have been due to the fact that we had four Spain ports and authentic tapas were readily available off the ship.

Well, if we like it, having it mostly empty would be lovely, especially on a fully-booked cruise!

My husband and I would order the assorted meat plate and the assorted cheese plate and then have it in the District Brew House (DBH).

The barstaff at the DBH would put in our order and bring it to wherever we were sitting in the bar.

Great for afternoon snack or pre dinner appetizer. Yes we had to pay for it, I didn't want to use one of our speciality dinners, but at $11 it was worth it ( and it used up any OBC we had)

It’s one of our favorites for sure!
