Been to Chotto Matte a few times and the quality today was rather appalling all around. The receptionists were quite condescending when my brother, former manager at a competition restaurant in Marylebone, mentioned a hospitality discount code those working in the industry get. Although the restaurant was empty they repeated that we would only have 1.5h there, insinuating we might want to spend the day. Because we had confused one of the items that came to our table (we didn't recognise it as what we had ordered, but all clarified kept it), when I said the calamari tasted like pork the waitress, after confessing it's all fried in the same oil, insinuated perhaps we were imagining the flavour, quite literally, after speaking to her manager - who by the way said would come to the table to speak to us about it and never bothered. Besides, the sofa type seats were pretty dirty and the toilet was pretty dirty too. So the two stars go to the good cocktails and to the lovely young girls who cleared the table and took out payment. Everything else was shockingly poor and I'll not be going back there.
