We have visited this restaurant for late lunch on Saturday afternoon. The place was half full and the reception was pretty good. However the "fun" started when the drinks were brought it. The waitress managed to spill the full try all over the guests. Yes, I do admit it could have been a simple one-off and you cannot judge the place on that, therefore we managed to maintain the good mood and waited for the food.

The starter was the Moules marinière for the incredible (4GBP or smth) And I have to say, if something costs unbelievably cheap, it tastes the same. However in this occasion, they did not even bother to cook them enough (in addition to making sure they were not dated). I am not too picky, but if out of the plate of moules only 3 looked like cooked, it rings the alarm. Others went for the soup, which, goes as a credit to the kitchen, was quite ok. Then the main arrived (all at separate times (time difference between first dish to last dish arriving was 10minutes, quite "interesting" for the group of 4 people). The only edible part of the Seafood Pizza was the base, the seafood- not a surprise - dated. The pasta, ordered by others - not cooked enough and the Steak - when asked for Medium they brought in Raw and blood was everywhere...

So the experience there ... you can guess. What is more, the manager decided to charge for the drinks his waitress spilled and for everything else at a full price. We had a big argument about it and he refused to accept that the seafood was smelly and perhaps dated and that the food quality was below average. We ended up taking the amount of the spilled drinks ourselves and paid the remaining just to get out of there. So the final conclusion - DO NOT GO THERE. And I am not exaggerating, that place is really horrible.

I came to this place with a group of four friends and the food was not too bad, however a little over priced!

The only part of the evening which was disappointing was the rude and ill-tempered manager who seemed to think he could sweet talk us around, after we had been insulted by one of his managers.

Once the bill arrived, it was not only too much for the quality and quantity of food but they added a 12% service charge onto the bill, which I heard didn't go to the staff...really disappointing!

Not a good restaurant!
