This was an awful visit to a restaurant that performed way below expectation and standard. We booked table for 8:30pm, we were on time but were shown to the bar and waited until about 9:15pm before being seated. So clearly either tables were over-booked or they were just giving tables away to anyone. I believe it was the latter.

The people at the bar were fantastic and we tipped them well.

Upstairs, we were all in very close quarters with not-so-nice people. really unpleasant. Our valentines night as husband and wife was simply ruined as far as I'm concerned. It sucked.

We had a guy who was basically just un-entertaining. It was just crap.

I'll take the blame for this. Serves me right.

If you do go, stay away from upstairs. Stick to the bar.
