Perhaps the worst dining experience of my life.
Me and my husband went into the restaurant as it looked inviting. Upon being seated, we had to wait a long time to order drinks. They had almost nothing available despite having a small menu. This is on a Monday evening. Initially, it seemed to be good value (2 courses 20 pounds) assuming that the restaurant would be a fine dining experience.
It was not.
The starter (meatballs) were fine. No seasoning mind you, and the meat was not great quality and had no evidence of being fried off. Possibly frozen.
The mains were horrendous. My husbands pizza was lukewarm, soggy, with a pool of water sitting on the surface, presumably from the tinned chicken that has been hatefully slung atop the surface. Not even a grain of salt to season this miserable dish. Also covered in pine nuts for some reason?
My main was supposed to be a sausage pasta with cheese/tomato sauce. Pasta was half cooked, sausage meat was minced into sand and tasted like dirt. Worse than value supermarket quality. It was also cold and completely unseasoned.
Upon requesting the bill, the waitress (who I couldn't help but notice had no shoes on?) neglected to ask us how our food was and just placed the bill on the table and walked off. Nobody came back to take our payment we just had to leave eventually. Outside there was a dying pigeon behind a bin, who I can only assume had just dined at the establishment.
