Took me a while to get to The Gabardine given their rather eccentric hours, but I was really disappointed.
Firstly, while the male staff seemed friendly, every female we encountered was extremely cold and unfriendly.
Meal-wise, I had the candy cane beet risotto and it was awful: Tasteless, way too wet--the consistency of slop. Wasn't good at all.
My wine had a fly in it and our waitress acted indignant like it was my fault.
The only positive element to the place was the deep fried beer battered cheese croquettes in maple mustard--they were exceptionally tasty.
Alas, I won't be back to get them again.
