The Scene
Right next door to their sister restaurant, the owners of Imperial Fez set their sights on an alluring tapas palace with a theatrical vision. Deep red walls, billowing ivory curtains and scattered jeweled pillows play off a Moorish motif in the seductive main room, divided into semiprivate booths and romantic nooks. Enthusiastic servers pace the meal and deftly navigate the center platform where flamenco, salsa and belly dancers take the stage on designated evenings.
The Food
The distinctive tapas menu features a mix of hot and cold plates with Mediterranean influences, not necessarily the traditional tapas of Spain. The delightful baked brie is sprinkled with caviar and white truffle oil. Plump seared scallops are brightened by a saffron cream sauce. Other worthy contenders are the smoky marinated baby lamp chops and roasted garlic asparagus with goat cheese. Relax post-meal on the lively patio with flavored hookahs.

We had reservations for a party of 8, and after sitting down waited for a full hour before a hooka was available. We were told that Ibiza's was out of hookas, even though the place was only about half full. Since we were at a HOOKA BAR for the hooka experience, this was very annoying. In the meantime we payed for a few overpriced drinks. Eventually (20 minutes later) the drinks came, and, as noted, a FULL HOUR AFTER SITTING DOWN a hooka finally showed up. By that time most of the party was about ready to go, so we asked for the check. During the entire 90 minutes we sat down, the waitress -- not a particularly personable server -- came by about three times. On the check was an auto-gratuity of 20%. For excellent service this would be acceptable, but this was sub par service to put it kindly. Lots of money -- terrible service. Not worth it. At all.

We went to Ibiza, looking forward to trying an array of tapas. Although the food was pretty good, the service was poor. We were willing to give an average tip since the poor service was somewhat balanced by the good food, but when we got the bill and saw it was too high we realized they had automatically given themselves almost a 20% tip. We looked through the menu and found buried at the bottom of the last page, which is not a page that is likely to be seen, there was a note that a 15-20% gratuity would be automatically added. I have no idea who decided they deserved the top tip (it was not the late-night time period where everyone pays 20%), but it was not us. To top it off, when getting the credit card bill we noticed that the total amount including the tip was in the "price" line and the tip line was empty, which left it open for a poor unsuspecting person who is not tracking the amount to give them a second tip on top of the high one they already added. Given their rules, we signed the bill after lowering the amount on it to be a 15% tip, which should have been acceptable since it was within their required range. We got our charge card bill the other day and found out they had charged their original 20% tip instead - essentially they billed us an amount that we had not agreed to pay. We will never go back to this restaurant.

We made reservations for Ibiza since we had never been there and wanted to try something new. The atmosphere is gorgeous, especially the booths with the curtains, I'll give Ibiza that. We called in for reservations and even made them online and when we got there they had no idea who we were. Although we were promptly seated by a server, it took literally 15 minutes for us to get a greet and drink order. They were not busy at all and we had to poke our heads out of the curtain several times to finally get someone's attention. We ordered drinks FINALLY, and didn't even have them served to us by our original server because he was off taking a smoke break or picking his nose probably, because we were his only table yet he was too busy to even serve us our drinks. Ten more minutes go by and we are ready to order food and he still does not return to ask us if our drinks are ok, or get an appetizer order. He checks on the booth next to us but passes us by AGAIN, so we finally go to the bar and ask someone to get the drink check from our server. The server angrily asks us, "What's up," and we tell him we are leaving and just want to pay for drinks. I don't know if service is so poor here because they automatically add 20% gratuity or what. We have a him a pity tip and went to Divan, which we should have done in the first place. Ibiza is the first and only restaurant we have ever walked out of. I just don't understand how lacking this place is considering it was not remotely busy when we were there (there were three other tables).
