There was a FINGERNAIL in the soda we ordered. The manager came to the table after we told our waiter and he said it's not a fingernail, it's a lemon seed... It was CLEARLY a fingernail and it was absolutely disgusting. He couldn't even come up with a lie that was more convincing.
Their steak tartare was one of the worst I've had. The menu said it comes with traditional toppings but it definitely did not come with all the normal spices as it was nearly tasteless, had raisins, and had a fishy taste to it. Do not order this dish.
I was also turned off by the diluted Softsoap in the bathroom. They couldn't even hide it behind a decent soap dispenser. Classy.
They clearly do not care about the quality. I would never recommend anyone coming here.
