Like a side-dish that doesn’t belong on an entree plate, the music doesn’t blend well with the ambiance at Room 18. Luckily, for them that’s the only thing going wrong for Room 18.
The food is tasty, the prices are affordable, and the wine is delicious.
Though there is only one waiter working nights, the service wasn’t bad (it’s a relatively small place).
They offer a variety of dishes. Most of them are either spicy or sea-food related. They offer tapas as well if you don’t want an entree dish. But the entree portions aren’t outrageous. I finished my Ropa Vieja without a problem. The Ropa Vieja was delicious.
In regards to beverages, they have beer as well as wine.
The tables are spacious, so you don’t feel like people are eating on top of you.
End result, Room 18 is worth visiting more than once and I wouldn’t have a problem visiting the establishment again.
