| - I don't understand how this place got such good reviews. I will admit that I only went there once (New years eve), but that one convinced me to never go there again, and would not recommend this to anybody.
Nothing out of my experience was "good".
The restaurant itself does not look very nice. I see they made maybe SOME effort (painted walls, table cloths, small decorations), but the overall setting is poor. Lighting is poor, the walls have no decorations (paintings/photos), the table and chairs that me and my girlfriend sat on were wobbly, it was a bit cold, and the washroom is very ghetto. I won't say it was dirty, but there was only 1 washroom, which was right next to a place where they put the dirty dishes. My overall experience of being at the restaurant was 1/5.
The food was at best "alright". I went with the $25 set dinner). Price wise, it is alright (I wouldn't say a good deal, but not a bad one either). Food presentation look pretty good, and the taste of it was alright. However, my main dish, seafood/calamari pasta, was a bit salty. The mango panna cotta was good though. I would say 3.5/5 for overall food experience.
I would say service was not good. Yes, the chef did greeted us when we came in, and the 1 lady/waiter was moderately nice. But we had asked for warm water and she says they do not have it?!?! How can they not have something so basic?! On top of that, they did not apologize. I'm not asking for a deep and long apology, but they didn't even say anything like "Sorry, but we don't have it at the moment." They literally did NOT say the word "sorry" or "apology". Yes, they were nice, but isn't that expected from all restaurants? From my point of view, she didn't really care about us at all, I would give service a 0/5.
Again this could have been a bad day for them, but this was my experience.
