"my friend and I went to capitulate for dinner to celebrate his birthday, as was capitula, we thought the only decent restaurant in blackheath. all the others seem to be pushing down quickly. we have been in the past often in the capitulas, and the food and services were good we had no appetizers and ordered only one main meal (black foam and black bell), because we were not huge hungry because we were eating a lot of birthday cakes earlier! we had a glass of wine and were offered a piece of bread. 35 minutes later we waited for our food. in this time no one came to ask if we were in order or offer us more drinks. I asked the manager if our food was ready. he said it would be 5 minutes without a statement of delay then disappeared 10 minutes later there was no sign of food or manager. That is why we decided to go because we lost interest in eating. we have to go and the manager came by. he told us the delay was due to a big party in the ground floor. this was not the case, there was a group of 8 people who had finished their meal for a long time. we were there earlier when it was much more business and the service was not so bad. while we waited, we saw a customer who had finished their meal, slipped £20 into the manager hand when he left. Perhaps the workers need bribe to provide good services? it is such a scandal, but another blackheath restaurant has become complicit and believes that it with the treatment of its customers without respect. I will vote for one with my feet and will not eat again in this restaurant. I will also leave everyone I don't know to go there"

"So to start with me ordered the mackerel, which was probably my own fault to not understand the menu correctly when it arrived, it looked like a glass of paralyzed aals, very inconspicuous, but anyway I didn't have it to my taste though that could be just a question of personal taste (I'm not a fussy eater, but it was beyond me) so I sent it back. No alternative or refund offered. I then waited an hour for my main course (Pork-Jowl), which is my interpretation is 50% pork 50% fat, again, when it was served, it was totally inedible, I was literally served 3 pieces fat with a piece of pork cracking up. No meat. Again I returned my food and said I wouldn't pay it. My men's food was also taken away to keep warm while an alternative was prepared. Then I was finally served the beef stew who was good, but was too salty, my men's food was returned until it had dried quite a lot. I ordered a slim tonic and was brought full of fat, at this time I could not be harassed, so I drank it anyway. So... we booked a table for 8 o'clock and didn't eat until 10 o'clock. Luckily we had a good night because the food and service was so bad that we saw the humor in it and had a good laugh... reminded of fawlty towers, but for £80 it was a very disappointing experience. I mentioned it at check-out, but I did not offer compensation. Also the ambience was pampered for us by the fact that several diners had dogs that cracked all night, I have no problem with people who take their dogs for dinner, but I think owners should keep their pets under control and if they don't, then it is really to intervene to the restaurant. What didn't happen. All in all a very disappointing experience and we will not return"
