Hidden gem - wonderful atmosphere and reasonable prices! And happy hour on the weekend! You can't go wrong with the amazing bay views and an extensive menu. The views of the bay are what Delilah wish they had on their patio (still don't understand why Delilah didn't get higher seats...?). To get to the pool bar, you need to go through the lobby of the Four Ambassadors but the pool bar is open to the public. Like others mentioned, they play fun music and the vibes are awesome and laid back.
We had some croquetas and tequenos off their happy hour menu to start. For dinner, I had the octopus and shrimp skewer and my husband had the vaca frita - both so tasty and huge portions.
As someone else mentioned, they cook everything there in the bar hut - there's no kitchen in the back. When I went, there were only two people working during a very busy Sunday dinner time. So just expect service might be a little slow. But the staff is continuously moving and working though - it's not at all slow because the staff is not working hard, there is just not enough staff for the demand. I will say I do appreciate that the man cooking the food did not rush the cooking despite how busy he was - everything came out well-cooked and seared and he would be handling making 4-5 dishes alone at a time.
Highly recommend the Bay View Bar for a relaxed happy hour or dinner out by the bay! read more
