But not when you don’t drink and just want to have some skewers.Seating is very crowded, I got kicked constantly by the server walking past by without any sorry offered. Don’t feel so great but he doesn’t seem to notice that he’s kicked my chair multiple times. Or he doesn’t care, I wouldn’t know.Would I come again? Maybe? if I’m drinking next time with a few friends…
