"I 'm really disappointed that this didn 't live up to the recommendations! We came as a family of 5 and I ordered the chilli. We weren 't told that this was going to be spicy. The food arrived and looked lovely with generous portions. Unfortunately, the chilli was ridiculously hot. We approached the staff and asked for some sour cream and was told the chefs were already making one and they would bring it over to me. This indicated that they already knew it was too spicy...after 10 minutes we asked again and was told that they were still trying to make this. We had to go up again everyone had finished their meals at this point and we we were then told that they had unsuccessfully tried twice but they couldn 't get it right. There was no attempt to put things right, I only ate the chips and rice and left a whole bowl of chilli when I raised it again with a staff member who just said oh and walked off. The man that cleared the table was also told again that the chilli was far too hot and his response was oh . He didn 't return to clear the rest of the table. Having worked in hospitality I have always gone above and beyond to rectify issues and this is what has frustrated me more then anything. The rest of the food looked lovely but the experience attitude of the staff means I can 't do anything other then leave an honest review. Very disappointed! Food: 1 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 4"
