Bitterly disappointed again with this place. Their menu is way overpriced and their food under delivers. I received my fish and chips and I have to say the portions were very, very small. The fish piece was tasty but tiny, the mushy peas served in a small little silver dipping dish were more like puree, and the chips served in a little tiny bucket were simply not enough to fill the gap in your tooth. I left the restaurant hungry. I complained to the manager but he said that the size of the fish was weighed out by the chef. Who are they kidding??!!! Unacceptable and at 14.95 for this, they need to up their anti! It seems that they are trying to scrape back the money for the upgraded decor by over pricing and serving tiny portions.
The servers there lack training. There is no service as such. One will take your order with little to say and another will come along and give it to you or anybody who seems to be passing by. No consistency and no care at all. Such a pity!
They need to offer value to their customers not rip them off with trying to get away with serving small portions. It was the same the first time I had eaten there since they changed their decor. Everything lacks!
