| - The food here was very decent. The soup, stewed vegetables and chicken were delicious. However, we were also served stale pita bread from the grocery store and the lamb sausage was quite dry (in fact, one of the sausages was rock-hard) which put a damper on the meal.
The service, however, was downright TERRIBLE. There was only one other couple in the whole restaurant, but we still waited half an hour between soup and main course. Worse still, the guy took our main course dishes away and offered us tea, which we happily accepted - and then he took FORTY-FIVE MINUTES to bring it to us. He kept reminding us that he "hadn't forgotten our tea" but every time we looked up, he was just standing around. We were exhausted from waiting around, but we still wanted to try the sweet mint tea, which looked very good. (Turns out, it was so sugary that it was barely drinkable.) And then, to top it all off, at the end of our meal, he TOLD US how much to tip him.
It's strange that all these other reviewers mention how nice this guy is. The only possibility that I can think of for why he was so rude to us is, maybe, that we were a same-sex couple who came in holding hands? But I don't like to assume people's motives for their behaviour, so who knows - maybe he was just having a bad day.
