| - The BF and i were in the mood for a light meal and we decided to give Vin Room a shot.
The decor was luxe, and stylish with the direction it was going. The set up was very intimate and cosy - we got a little corner table upstairs in the back with ostrich leather seats. I found the service erratic and random. We had 4 different servers, who were all dressed differently. I wouldn't have known they were servers if they hadn't been carrying trays. They mostly seemed detached and distracted, maybe it had been a busy night?
There was a good variety of wine, and our first server was helpful in suggesting one according to my requests. We ordered the seared scallops, duck, several cheeses, and a dessert. I thought the presentation of the food was great, but the flavours and textures mediocre. The scallops weren't as creamy as I hoped, and the duck wasn't anything special. Nonetheless, I was grateful for the gluten-free S'more dessert, which was delicious.
The tapas were good, just not good enough to justify the prices.
I did not regret my experience at Vin Room, but I am not sure if i will come back.
