I came here on Saturday, early evening, for a date night with my partner. The food is typically authentic and full of flavour. We ordered the vegetarian platter for two with a side of meat (tibs).
A few bites in, I noticed a cockroach ON our table.
I really, really tried not to overreact. I went to the washroom and asked that my partner kill it while I'm gone, although he couldn't find it. Disgusted, I didn't want to ruin our date, so I tried to be resilient. The roach made two other appearances, at which point we both decided our dinner was over.
I went to pay the bill at the bar in order to expedite our exit, and when I told our waitress that there was a roach on the table, response was, verbatim, "oh.. okay. sorry then". I can only infer by her lack of reaction that she has seen or received several complaints about roaches in the establishment. I was too flustered and caught off guard, so I paid the bill in full. The reality is, we ate less than half of our dinner and the wine was mostly untouched. We left because of a rodent ON THE TABLE. I shouldn't have paid ($70), but didn't want to cause any issues; I really just wanted to leave that place.
In summary, there was a COCKROACH on the DINNER TABLE, and the server was completely unfazed.
I do not believe they will pass their next health inspection, quite frankly.
