I visited Tasca Brava over the weekend. It is true that the dining area is very crowded but once seated that does not take much adjusting to. What did bother me was the lengthy amount of time it took to be approached by the waiter. Once approched and our order was placed (2 people) we were told that we had not ordered nearly enough food (five Tapas and bread) to be sufficient and we were asked if we even know what Tapas were...HELLO...even if we didn't there's an explanation on the back of the menu. Once our food came it was obvious that we had more than enough and our waiter was playing the ""push the bill up"" game. I did enjoy the food but did not like the attempted ""hustle"" by the wait staff.
