We could not have been happier with the service and the food. Our waitress was excellent - always checking to see if we needed anything and the owner Herman came over to our table as well. We enjoyed ourselves very much.

We had high hopes for Tribu, but unfortunately, our experience was disappointing from start to finish. First off, the noise level in the restaurant is overwhelming. It’s so loud that having a simple conversation with the person across the table felt impossible. It’s not just lively, it’s chaotic. We waited about 15 minutes just to be seated, despite having a reservation. Once we were finally at our table, our server came by once to take our drink and food order, then completely disappeared. We were hoping to order more drinks during the meal, but no one ever came back to check on us. On the food side: the appetizers were actually pretty good, which gave us a bit of hope. But the main course didn’t hold up. The beans tasted burnt, and the steak was served without a steak knife, which made it difficult to eat using only the appetizer knives we had on hand. After we were clearly done with the meal and had been sitting around for 20 minutes, the server reappeared, not to ask how the food was or if we needed anything else, but simply to ask, “Do you want boxes?” She never introduced herself, didn’t ask how was anything, and left us feeling ignored and unwelcome. Overall, the food was inconsistent, the service was poor, and the atmosphere was way too loud for a comfortable dining experience. Sadly, we won’t be returning to Tribu.

The music was too loud. I shouldn't have to yell across the table to be heard. Staff didn't compensate for the loud music & spoke too low. Waiter forgot a meal that was ordered & instead of owning up to it, blamed it on the kitchen. We waited so long for the meal, that we ended up canceling it (as the rest of the table had received their dessert already). No compensation was provided except for offering a free dessert. They charge different prices for using cash vs card. They don't split the bill based on what was ordered. The food was decent but not enough to explain why it took so long to arrive. Table wasn't ready at the time of our reservation.

Great experience but drinks could be better. Mixologist or bartender needs polishing.

Great food (esp the guacamole with pork belly), but spotty/weird service. Hostess was super quiet (mumbled the "no liquor license" spiel, glad I read reviews online in advance) and also seemed confused at our 4 person reservation. I eventually had to pull up the email to show her. She said we would only have an hour, and I pointed out the reservation said 90 minutes, and we wouldn't promise anything. Which is good, because our food was slow to come out. We were seated at an out of the way table next to a super loud party. Our waiter rushed through taking our drinks/apps, and immediately turned around to help the large party even though we had a few allergy questions about the entrees. (We tried to get his attention but got drowned out). When it came time to order entrees, he answered the allergy question, then immediately left again to help the other table (even though we were ready to order, and again got drowned out). A manager (?) came by and asked how things were, I mentioned the above things and he also smiled and nodded like he didn't hear me. Strange experience! But the food was fantastic. I am considering going during the week when there is less of a chance of a large party!

Cute restaurant and food was really good. Just wish we had known beforehand that they don’t yet have a liquor license. Should be on their website.

I went there for dinner because I wanted to have a nice night for my birthday, the place it's beautiful but some things I didn't like they didn't have much in the menu and for a Saturday night they were not prepared and still they don't have drinks "at all" I was told that from the host.
