text: My husband and I decided to stop by Bar Bistro to grab a bite to eat before heading to a s game We decided to try a few small plates since I was not super hungry They were having a biker rally and were pretty busy but we were immediately seated at a cute table that was shaped like an artists palette It was really cool but a bit unstable and pretty thick for a table We were greeted by our waiter and put our order innnWe started with a bacon wrapped date that was stuffed with cheese compliments of the chef It was quite a delicious bite of food Then we moved on to the carnitas tacos It was an adorable little plate of food that we had to assemble ourselves It came with tortillas carnitas jicama slaw mango salsa and tomatillo sauce The tacos were good but nothing special Then we were served the B B slider This may sound weird but it tasted like meat There was not much flavor other than meat which is not a bad thing per se but I was hoping to be wowed especially at a pop The mac and cheese hit the table next and I was quite excited to give it a try It was smaller than I thought it was going to be but it was creamy and delicious The peppers and tomatoes gave it great color but they added no flavor to the dish We decided to try one additional dish since we were still a little hungry so we ordered up the Mofongo with shrimp On the menu it is described as a plantain garlic mash with meat In reality it is little plantain cakes with a very vinegary sauce that is unlike anything I have ever tasted I would not say it was bad I am just not used to those bold flavors and I do not think I would order it againnnOverall the service was standard but my water glass was never less than half full which I appreciated The food was good but not mind blowing I felt that the portions were a bit small for the price but these were some of the better tapas I have experienced
