点评:This is a nice looking, lively restaurant, but the food is average, at best.
We were meeting Finnish friends and had high expectations as the place was buzzing when we arrived. We were not given food menus immediately, only drinks so that slowed things down massively.
Once we had ordered cocktails, we were allowed to see the food menu. I found it difficult to find a main course that I liked. However, the starters came and they were fine. Two bottled of wine were ordered: the white was just about okay, but nothing special; the red was dreadful- full of sour tasting tannins and too cold to be served.
For mains, I had the lobster pasta, which was okay, although the pasta was dried, not fresh, the sauce was good, but the lobster amounted to the tiniest portion of tail. In the UK, I regularly have this at a very good Italian restaurant and half a lobster is served. Another lady had moules frites, which were also okay. The other three ordered a highly recommended sharing special of T-bone steak. This was ordered medium rare and came, luke warm, medium. The skinny fries were also served not hot and the salads were basic to say the least. The meat was tough and incorrectly cooked and when we complained, the server offered 20% off, which is not really what people want. They just want some delicious food to eat. We asked for it to be replaced and were told that they close at 11pm and so there would not be time. Our table was booked for 7pm!!!! They offered 2 sirloin steaks, which arrived thinly sliced and correctly cooked. We had to insist on fresh fries, but no fresh salads arrived. Needless to say, we did not order dessert.
The over all experience was deeply disappointing and the bill was over £130 each. We expected much better and would definitely not return.
翻译:这是一家看起来不错、热闹的餐厅,但食物最多只能算是一般。
我们是在和芬兰朋友见面,我们到达时,这里人声鼎沸,所以我们对这里抱有很高的期望。我们没有立即拿到菜单,只有饮料,这大大降低了用餐速度。
我们点了鸡尾酒后,才允许看菜单。我发现很难找到我喜欢的主菜。不过,开胃菜上来了,还不错。我点了两瓶酒:白葡萄酒还行,但没什么特别的;红葡萄酒很糟糕——充满了酸味的单宁,而且太冷了,不能上桌。
主菜我点了龙虾意面,还不错,虽然意面是干的,不是新鲜的,酱汁很好,但龙虾只占了尾巴的一小部分。在英国,我经常在一家非常好的意大利餐厅吃这种菜,餐厅会供应半只龙虾。另一位女士点了贻贝炸薯条,也还不错。另外三人点了一份强烈推荐的 T 骨牛排。这道菜点的是五分熟,端上来时却是温热的,五分熟。细薯条也不热,沙拉也只能说是一般水平。肉很硬,而且烹饪得不太好,当我们抱怨时,服务员给了我们 20% 的折扣,这可不是人们真正想要的。他们只想吃一些美味的食物。我们要求换一份,却被告知他们 11 点关门,所以没有时间。我们的桌子是 7 点订的!!!!他们提供了 2 份沙朗牛排,上来时切成薄片,烹饪得当。我们不得不坚持要新鲜的薯条,但没有新鲜的沙拉。不用说,我们没有点甜点。
整体体验非常令人失望,每份账单超过 130 英镑。我们期待更好的,绝对不会再来了。
