What Fiona Bell dislikes about Ambience:
**Meal Type:** Lunch **Price per Person:** £10-20 **Food Rating:** 1/5 **Service Rating:** 4/5 **Atmosphere Rating:** 3/5 I recently had lunch at this restaurant, and I must say it was quite an experience. While the service was commendable—prompt and friendly—the food was unfortunately a major letdown. The quality of the dishes did not meet expectations at all, earning a disappointing rating of 1 out of 5. The atmosphere was decent, providing a welcoming environment, but it wasn't enough to make up for the culinary shortcomings. Overall, the meal was underwhelming.
