I have been here twice for a relaxed business lunch during the week and on both occasions had an excellent experience. So I took my wife and some friends for dinner on Saturday evening, having told them how much I liked the place.
The good news is that the food and wine were as amazing as I remember - I had the rock bass and beans, there were various pasta dishes and my wife and friend had the veal - all were utterly delicious. The Sicilian sommelier knew his stuff and chose us two fantastic wines.
The bad news was pretty much everything else.
We arrived to find our friends already sipping drinks in the bar area and I called the bar server guy over and attempted to order two Aperol spritz and a Laphroig whisky for me with no ice and water on the side. The guy had trouble understanding but after I literally pointed out the drinks on the menu he disappeared and asked the barman. He reappeared with one Aperol Spritz and two whiskys, both with ice, and two glasses of water. He also had a terrible BO problem
One of the waiters who served us our food seemed to know what he was doing but the other had no clue and put the wrong dishes in front of the wrong people
Whilst we had a good time amongst ourselves, the place was very quiet indeed - perhaps 30 people in the whole restaurant - and there was no atmosphere at all
Given that the bill was over £100 a head, I expect service to be decent. I have had better service in MacDonalds. I don't see why the appear to be hiring trainees or people with little/ no experience - surely an upmarket restaurant should be employing experienced people - and ones that speak English and know how to bathe
Given the quality of the food, I will return, but probably at lunchtime, when they appear to have the A team working
