Review of The Butter Factory

Came for dinner because we read such great reviews...

Came for dinner because we read such great reviews about it. Alas that wasn't our experience. Started off with pretty poor service. We sat unattended for around 15 minutes, finally got a waitress' attention only to be told that our assigned waitress was busy and would be with us shortly. We didn't even have water at this stage! When we were served, the service was lacking warmth.

Food was only so so too. Nothing outstanding. Was surprised that the risotto was compacted into a Dariole mould so it was of course stodgy. The pork belly skin was also chewy the knife could barely handle it (granted it wasn't advertised as crispy).

Really wanted to love it but it was a disappointment, at least for us.
