  • Noche Brava | White Party

    May 16, 2025 only
    NOCHE BRAVA: A Tulum-Inspired Dinner & Sound Experience (WHITE PARTY) This isn’t just dinner—it’s a night to lose yourself in rhythm, flavor, and flow. Noche Brava brings the spirit of Tulum to the city with deep grooves, lush ambiance, and no rules—just good people and good vibes. No tickets required, no minimums—just make a reservation and show up in your best all-white fit. Enjoy indoor and outdoor seating, handcrafted cocktails, and a soundtrack of Tulum-inspired house music that blends Afro, Latin, and bohemian rhythms. Space is limited to keep the vibe intimate and elevated. The atmosphere blends tropical textures with glowing lanterns, open air, and pulsing beats—creating a space that feels both free-spirited and alive. The menu is a journey, taking you from the sun-drenched coasts of the Mediterranean to the bold, soulful flavors of Latin America. This night is a tribute to the cultures of hospitality that welcome you in, feed you well, and leave you dancing.

    Brunch time way over packed, not enough staff, “bottomless drinks” turned into just two drinks because it took about 45 mins to find your waiter and another 15 to get one

    Sat on the patio and it was very cold. They turned off the heater half way through the meal. Took 45 minutes for our waiter to come to the table. Another 30 for even the drinks to get here. Got our orders wrong. Food arrived cold. When they did turn the heater on they put it really close to a wicker lamp which was concerning. Overall it wasn’t great, kinda hard to find a positive here, but the drinks we did get were good.

    Terrible experience, took over 40 minutes to be seated with a reservation and almost 30 for a server to come to our table. “Bottomless” drinks were non-existent due to server never showing up, and was given half glasses of drinks due to no clean glasses. Server was also extremely rude and said she “didn’t have time” for us asking questions about the menu.

    the hostess had a rude attitude but did her job, after we were sat, she brought me and my partner clearly dirty plates with yellow crust and black smears that came off when i wiped it with a napkin. i asked for new plates and she brought me two more dirty plates. the food was good, nothing special though. the host or hostess of a restaurant is the first greeting, impression, and overall starter of any restaurant experience, and my partner and i left after ordering appetizers, because of the rude service. one server that almost took our order but was told not to by the hostess was actually friendly and great at communicating. as someone who also used to work in a restaurant, i understand that it can be stressful when it is busier, but that is never an excuse to act like you arent getting paid to make a customer experience enjoyable. this place is great pick if you are drunk or want to drink, the bar looked lively, the food looks very cool and tastes okay, the plates clearly aren't washed well enough, and the service is below average. will most likely not return, maybe a mistake to come on a saturday evening but it was supposed to be my birthday dinner.

    Nice place, ambiance is great. It was a loud place to try and have conversation. Service was slower, but appreciated at some level as it gave us time to visit. Food was great, a fun midweek night out for a small group.
