Absolutely execrable
Absolutely execrable. Given a voucher by a friend and used it for the set menu deal - £49.99 for 2, with a bottle of prosecco. First problem - very little for me as I choose not to eat meat, and do not eat dairy due to sinus issues. Had to settle for a poor version of panzanella (halved ice cold cherry tomatoes, scant chopped red onion, meagre crumbs of bread and a vaguely sweetish dressing of sorts). The Spouse had indifferent nachos. The only main I could opt for was spaghetti pomodoro. Simply vile. The so called sauce tasted like cheap, supermarket own brand tomato soup, with (more !) halved cherry tomatoes - 2 to be precise. Abominable, with a few shreds of fresh basil. The Mrs. paid a £10.50 supplement for a paltry steak, plus a swingeing £3.50 for a watery peppercorn sauce. Parsimonious little lukewarm portions of brownie, and about a teaspon of low quality vanilla ice cream. No flexibility re the vino - we asked if we could swap the prosecco for a (cheaper) still rose - no. At the meal's end I said to the wait staff that I noted nobody had asked how our food was. I enquired if that was because they knew how simply dreadful it was. I then elaborated on just how awful the experience had been. Save your money, go somewhere better.
