On a positive note, the staff are lovely; it seems like the issue lies with the chef, who clearly has an attitude problem. I’m not picky, but I could cook fish better at home with my eyes closed. It seems the chef has lost their passion, which is really disappointing. This is the second time we’ve had to send food back. This place used to be excellent, but sadly, the standards have slipped significantly. I would recommend going to a Michelin-starred restaurant instead; the prices are comparable, but at least the chefs there take pride in the food they serve. Overall, a major disappointment.
