Very disappointed in all the 3 meals we had. We were late by 10 mins,unavoidable on our part .. we were welcomed with this, then it was mentioned again when we asked for drinks, no we'll take your food order first! There were 3 men drinking in the whole of the restaurant... hardly busy! We definitely won't be back, nor recommend.
