DO NOT go to Aruba Bar in Metrowalk

I had a bad dining experience at Aruba Bar in Metrowalk recently that explains the post title. Simply put, they starved me. I came in before 9PM and ordered pizza and Tom Collins. I specifically instruct to hold any and all kinds of add-ons beside the meat and cheese. An hour later, yes, you heard it right, just before 10PM, and after a couple of follow-ups (and they told me the first time that pizzas come out in just 10 minutes, the second time I followed up they said it takes 15 minutes to cook), the pizza finally arrives, cold, and with olives on top. I had to slowly explain to the waitress that the pizza is cold. Two minutes later, she takes the dish and tells me that they will re-heat it. It wasn't the best pizza I've tasted, doesn't even come close to above average. And it costs around P300. The Tom Collins arrived earlier, didn't taste any better, and costs P80 a pop. I had two just to ease my tension.

Music/Entertainment: 3 out of 5 stars.
Pizza/Drink: 2.75 out of 5 stars.
Ambiance: 3 out of 5 stars.
Service: 2 out of 5 stars.
Pricing - Food: 2 out of 5 stars.
Pricing - Drinks: 3 out of 5 stars.

There must be better hang-out places out there than Aruba Bar and Restaurant (Metrowalk).
