"We were seated promptly and received our drinks quickly, which turned out to be the fastest service we experienced all evening. The staff were genuinely friendly and did their best, but it seemed they often forgot about us since we had to approach them several times to follow up on our orders.
We ordered the Mezze platter for four, but when it arrived, it was clearly a sharing plate for two. The waitress mistakenly thought we were sharing it among four people. Another platter was ordered quickly, but it took at least ten minutes to arrive. While I appreciate that it was prepared fresh, the warm pitas and other items on the first platter had begun to cool while we waited.
Once we finished our starters, the waitress came to clear the plates and informed us that our main courses were ready. She asked if we wanted them held, but not wanting the food to sit and become lukewarm, we requested it be served immediately. Unfortunately, the chips were cold and had to be sent back, while the accompanying vegetables were only barely warm.
I ordered the king prawn linguine from the specials menu, but the portion size was very small. When I inquired if this was a starter size, I was told it was the regular portion. The waitress kindly offered to check if anything could be done, and my partner even volunteered to pay for additional prawns if necessary. To their credit, they did increase the portion size without any extra charge.
When our desserts finally arrived (we had to remind them we were still waiting), the Eton Mess came out looking like a complete mess, with no fruit as described on the menu. As a gesture of apology for the disappointing meal, we were offered complimentary coffees, but ultimately, we decided we won't be returning."
