This place DESPERATELY needs a professional restaurant manager. Young staff were lovely and accomodating, senior staff absolutely hopeless and rude. Clearly not trained in how to manage a restaurant. Such poor organisation and retched attitudes.
We booked a table near the childrens area, but were initially placed elsewhere. The young staff were incredibly helpful and moved the entire table for us. Food took an hour, borderline too long, but quality was acceptable although price was a little steep. When going to the bar for more drinks, a senior staff member was standing at the cash register doing something. 15 minutes later she finally suspended whatever she was doing, so that the THREE other staff members waiting behind her could put through their orders. I just wanted two beers, and it took me 20 minutes with 4 staff members behind the bar. They clearly need two cash registers, you can't book in 60 customers and run the restaurant and bar off of one register.
Hire a real manager. There's so much potential here, but you won't get return customers until the place is run properly.
P.S. Also the beers were Lobethal Bierhaus (yay!) but were charging $10 for a 300ml bottle (boo what the hell)
