A few days ago I had my first dinner in a very long time at Electric. I must say I was left a bit unsure about the concept last time around. This time, luckily, it was different. I would dare to say that the place is almost the ideal start of a big night out. We were a group of 12, all guys, celebrating something and Electric delivered from the very start, with the drinks in the bar, to the food and the general atmosphere.
I had tartar for starters and the steak frites for main. Both the dishes were good but nothing special or outstanding. That said, given the volume and the atmosphere, it would be a bit of waste to eat super-high-end food. You almost feel like you’re eating in the bar area, which obviously is good or bad, depending on your aim with the evening. I really enjoyed it.
Unfortunately the service isn’t excellent, and they're pretty steep in price given the food quality. But that aside, a very good place for the right purpose and you can always justify the price by saying you're paying for the atmosphere.
