Service very slow. Our server was friendly and apologetic but clearly overloaded. Drink order incomplete. Empeñada appetizers were deep fried, slow to come but tasted good. We ordered the salmon to be cooked through. It was server mostly raw Uncooked salmon immediately sent back. They replaced with an apology and properly cooked version that tasted good. The grilled asparagus was very good. Lamp chops were cooked per order and tasted good. They apologized for the slow service and uncooked salmon by giving us dessert of the fried dough with ice cream on the side. We gave our stressed out server a really nice tip she gets an A+ for effort.

This was the first time we tried Longitud315 and loved it. We sampled several of the small plates, the Green Beans A La Paisa was our favorite and I normally don't like Green Beans! Venezuelan Carbonada was my pick for an Platos Fuertes it is a sort of stew made in a butternut squash. I added the chicken for a protein that complimented the dish. We tried the Xingu Black Beer from Brazil, it is very dark and has a great flavor (we each has 2). We'll definitely be back.

Server couldn’t wait for us to leave, even though we were easy and did order a lot of food and drinks. The plantain chips that were best part of this restaurant is no longer complimentary but comes at a high price that just makes this place feel less welcoming. The drinks lacked the flavor there was no guava flavor in the guava drink and food overall wasn’t how it was last year. Very disappointing.

Continues to be one of our go to places. We had 3 appetizers for our dinner and each was flavorful and anything but typical. The Plantain Fritos dessert was exceptional. Our server was very attentive and we sat upstairs which was quiet with a very nice ambiance. The only issue we had were the prices that seem to have gone up significantly. Of particular note was the Mezcal Mule at $17 and the Eleganza which was similar to Sangria priced at $15.
