"We were greeted in a friendly manner and thought that we were in for a great experience. We had our drinks order taken after about 10 minutes and even though we had made our food choices, YY told us he would deal with the drinks...first and return for the food order. The restaurant was probably only a tenth full so we assumed (wrongly) that the food orders would be taken fairly quickly. 20 minutes later we had to prompt YY that we were hungry and hadn’t ordered our food yet. He apologised insincerely and said that they were very busy! We looked around at the almost empty restaurant and questioned this to be told that they were prioritising their take away customers! Obviously this wasn't what we were expecting to be told especially having pre booked the table several days before. YY was training a couple of new staff members which was fine and although they were smiling and pleasant they were clearly out of their depth. One produced an empty wine glass after having ordered a glass of red wine! The Wagyu beef dish was sent back because it was chewy and inedible it was a poor rump steak at best and Wagyu in name only. The other food was ok but overall the experience and service were extremely disappointing. I would rather have gone to the Macdonalds over the road and I’m not a big fan of the golden arches. Final straw was the Health and Safety. See the picture attached. We won’t return."
