When we finally got a table at 22 it was a saturday and we hadn't pre booked, so our fault , we had to wait 15 minutes for water, another 15 for our drinks, and another 15 for the complimentary bread and free vegan soup. It was super delicious! We had ordered a starter the vegan salad, as the waiter told us the lentil and tofu balls werent vegan? , and seitan for main, whilst my boyfriends mother ordered a steak. A good 30 minutes after the soup, we got the starter, but at the same time !! my mother in law got her main course. We complained, saying that we wanted all three main courses at the same time. They didnt care, just offered us free vegetables at our meal. Shortly after, we got what seemed like a hurried seitan not marinated properly some bits were delicious, but the main part of it just tasted like bland, unmarinated seitan , and we only got 1 plate of vegetables we asked for 1 each . Maybe it was because they stressed about our main, but the vegetables were overcooked, not even salted my mother in law had vegetables with her meal, and they were nicely cooked, salted and even had pine nuts in them! and we did not even bother to eat them. We were quite disappointed that after waiting that long, and having the experience ruined, noone seemed to care. My mother in law had to eat very slowly to avoid finishing her meal before we got ours. In the end, all we got for free was a bowl of plain vegetables we didnt even eat. Noone apologized or asked us about our food. And when we left, it looked like they were laughing at us, for having complained. Anyong considering going here: reconsider. Waiting 1 hour for plain seitan and ignorant service is not worth it.
