上網見到呢間西班牙餐廳環境幾靚，就lunch一個人過左黎試下，之前試過就咁walk in話冇位，所以我book定先😂餐廳有三層，裝修係正既，d員工好nice好有禮貌，見到我一個人食就講笑話可以join埋一齊食🤣因為第一次試，我簡左最平果個course，同埋簡d野食都係menu上面建議既Lunch Set ($178)麵包個麵包好硬，配沙律醬，沙律醬個質感同味道都好似卡夫沙律醬咁，又唔夾又冇誠意🙈Gazpacho個碗有小小麵包同洋蔥碎，坐低左一陣個waiter就倒左d蕃茄湯落黎，d湯唔知點解好臭，倒果陣我明明已經戴著口罩，但都聞到好強烈既草青味再加小小酸臭味，飲落就係將蕃茄拎去榨汁既味，仲要冇調味，草青味勁到傻，我要加埋d麵包碎同洋蔥碎一齊飲先勉強蓋到d味，極難飲同奇怪既一個湯😭😭Padron Peppers微苦，d鹽都中和返青椒苦味既，不過不失Tuna Tartar吞拿魚有用醬油醃過，但味落得重手左咸左d，不過都算令吞拿魚個鮮味出到黎，同埋份量好多，食極都仲有咁，下面既牛油果醬就落得檸檬汁太多，食落幾酸下同埋食唔出牛油果既香味，配脆麵包食都可以既Broken Egg 2.0賣相幾靚，個

呢個一定要一開始講…夏天唔可以去呢間餐廳, 🥵🥵🥵裏面溫度熱過焗桑拿, 室外仲涼過室內另外可能我哋太遲book位, 我們3人, 只能迫在一張二人枱, 仲要面對面對住另外一台陌生人,有點局限同尷尬除咗室温過份高以及座位方面,呢間餐廳服務&食物味道都算不錯, 但多多少少也受到環境影響但佢冇收service charge, 呢樣幾好我們book了食呢個set dinner $398pp, 不算貴不算平, 4個starters share蝦-個味好似食緊粟一燒, 中規中矩Croqutte- 係薯蓉芋泥啲frd, truffle重Broken eggs- all day breakfast菜- 呢個最有驚喜, 酸meimei,最好食MainLamb Shoulder, 肉整到好鬆軟, 左右兩旁焗到好脆, 配埋海鹽同醬食好matchyLobster rice- 中規中矩, 正常, 下次應該唔會叫DessertCheesecake- 味道還好, 但冇expect係有小小暖Coffee Icecream- 我冇嘢講,拎到嚟都就快溶晒,賣相零分, 可能因為餐廳室温真係太熱了最後買單嘅時候,拎張bill嚟

It seems to be a common trend with the Pirata chain that most of the menu may start off strong, only to end poorly and going downhill from the main course onwards. It wasn’t our first time at The Optimist, either generally or for the Restaurant Week deal. This was probably the most average experience at The Optimist. Starters: Broken Eggs with Iberico Ham, Chorizo with croutons Main: Rib eye, SalmonDessert: Berry “cheesecake” Highly recommend the broken eggs, runny yolk with potatoes and salty h

Booked this resturant due it being in the list of restaurants for AE card promotion.Firstly the service was really good, our server took time to explain the menu to us and was friendly. The tapas we ordered were nice - iberico ham, truffle croquettes, prawns and broken eggs.However, the highlight was definitely the suckling pig. It was freshly made and piping hot when it was served to us. The meat was tender and the skin was crispy. A very well done dish and definitely big enough portion to shar

Have always wanted to go to The Optimist as I’m a HUGE fan of Spanish cuisine + anything under the Blacksheep group. Finally went there for their Dunch (lunch + dinner) - our meal was around 3 hours long😂 reminds me of the meals in Europe where the pace was much slower😌.▫️𝘈𝘱𝘱𝘦𝘵𝘪𝘴𝘦𝘳𝘴 ▫️𝘔𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘴▫️ 𝘋𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘦𝘳𝘵 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘵𝘰 𝘴𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘦.▫️𝘝𝘦𝘳𝘥𝘪𝘤𝘵Really nice vibes, good food - they do a nice dunch (between lunch and dinner), can try their signatures all at once 👍🏻

同閨密慶祝生日，都會想楝返間得體又好食既餐廳。今次黎到#theoptimist，先睇外觀裝橫就好似一個城市中既室內花園咁，好優雅舒服。必食一定係🦞 Lobster Juicy Rice完全係飯如其名，勁juicy!個risotto 飯既質地岩岩好，個汁吸晒龍蝦既精華，好滑身。另外龍蝦好新鮮，啖啖肉！另外前菜有🐟 Tuna Tartar 🦐 Garlic and Chilli King Prawns🫑 Padron Peppers 整體水準都好好，無咩可以挑剔。到驚喜時刻會有位結他手彈住結他同其他店員一齊為壽星唱生日歌！仲送張即影即有同生日卡，氣氛非常好。甜品就楝左Blueberry Cheesecake 同埋Flan 🍮 我好鍾意個#cheesecake，好軟身好滑個餅底好好食！好朋友，希望你呢個生日過得開心滿意！非常推介大家黎呢度慶生食飯🎂#wanchaifood #hongkongfoodie #lobster#risotto#cheesecake#flan#happybirthday #bff #hongkongfood #hongkongfoodblogger #justch

地面鋪主要做酒吧和輕食，樓上比較正式 dinner area，環境和裝修都唔錯。Openrice 訂位，安排了窗邊梳化位，坐得舒服。去西班牙餐廳，當然先選了一支西班牙紅酒，開瓶後15分鐘左右已啱飲，配之後點的 tapas 相當不錯。先點了兩款 tapas，牛面肉 (beef cheek) 和 broken egg (唔知係咩嚟，不過係餐廳推介)…… 其實係煎蛋，配西班牙腸，有薯仔片墊底，望落有少少油，不過配埋支酒又唔覺得油膩。跟住點咗蒜片蝦，估唔到啲蝦都幾大隻，好彈牙。食埋麵包都有點飽飽地，直接跳去甜品。😂😂點了 cheesecake，配 dessert cocktail ，呢個 espresso martini 真係值得一試，好味。Baileys on rock 就 stsndard，好難出錯。😜埋單才發現原來無加一，menu 有寫 "all tips go to our staff"，值得一讚。👍👍職員真係有禮貌和親切，所以簽卡後直接放低 tips (cash)。

呢間餐廳比人感覺好高級，有幾層(地下至二樓)，咁店員就帶左我地上一層入座。室內嘅環境非常優雅美觀，微暗嘅燈光顯得格外有格調。枱面上一早已經放定左2個裝住少少麵包碎嘅碗，確定我地坐低後就立即往碗內倒蕃茄湯，確保我地可以5洗餓住肚揀野食。同時亦立刻提供左麵包同香口軟滑搽包嘅 cream 。我地簡左最出名嘅龍蝦飯。由於係2人份量同2人收費，前菜同甜品都可以揀2款(但最後甜品三款都黎齊，因為訂座時我標明係慶祝生日，職員仲非常好地安排左畫字同蠟燭添)。前菜揀左吞拿他他同Gambas(係5條綠色椒同4隻蝦，需加錢)。先講一開始嘅湯同包，配包嘅cream好香口，所以搽落包度幾好食。但湯就偏"生"嘅感覺，好fresh但就唔多合我嘅口味。2個前菜都好好食！吞拿他他係上層生吞拿魚下層係牛油果漿，再配搭薄餅片食用。果漿應該混合左檸檬汁，有甜甜酸酸開胃嘅感覺。牛油果味比甜酸味蓋過左所以出唔到味，但就取其creamy嘅質感，配上吞拿同薄片仍然係好好食。然後到Gambus，大蝦係略帶辣味非常香口。而青椒完全唔辣，微咸加上已煮淋嘅質感，一啲青味生味都冇，個人認為都幾好食。然後到招牌菜龍蝦飯，真係名不虛傳。首先係分量

今年的生日慶祝係呢度，岩岩行入去時覺得點解咁嘈雜坐低之後開始上free flow 酒，好快就適應整個環境，staff好熱情，得知係我生日仲特別安排了生日蠟燭和唱歌環節，好卑心機，多謝；龍蝦飯好入味，全城最好食，多謝

I haven’t had a girls day out for a long time so my friend looked for a perfect restaurant for us to do some catch up. When we arrived there, the ground floor was packed with people, the lady told us to go up to the second floor. It was definitely more spacious on the second floor. We ordered our appetizer quickly as we were quite hungry. The sour dough was yummy, it was soft and tasty with the special homemade butter. Our favourite beef tartare came to us first followed by calamari. The beef ta
