Saturday 1 Dec 2007.

7pm arrival, restaurant totally empty, slow service from start.
Dark setting by the window, but view's completely blocked by panels.
Set menu £18/head.
Starters, pretty good varied and plentiful.
Long long wait for service.
Main course small and unappetising Lamb dish, served with french baguette!!
Vegetarian main dish, well overcooked, soft mushy veg.
Chicken dish, reasonable - just.
Couscous is ok.
Very long wait for service.
Desserts, pistachio nuts, Turkish Delight and Baklawa chunks. Quite skimpy on the Baklawa, not enough by far.
Later Mint Tea served without TEA!!!! Hot water and tiny mint ONLY!!!
3 Coffees but no milk, saucers or spoons.
Extremely poor customer service and can't see the place surviving much longer.
Final words - Spent well over 2 hours at the mercy of untrained young inexperienced staff, Rubbish Galore!
