I was bummed b/c I bet the food is amazing, only nobody to cook it!

It is regrettable that while eating is fantastic, it took almost 2 hours to get it. I don't think I'll be back soon read more It is regrettable that while eating is fantastic, it took almost 2 hours to get it. I don't think I'll be back soon

That was good with us because we had a good conversation. We bought a $70 bottle of wine, but it was simply poured without opportunity to try it. Over 90 minutes later, none of the restaurants at the Essen restaurant had. Some just left. We have an order first. The quality ranged from fair to good. When we were finished (about 4 hours after arrival) we thought we should compose a dessert. But we were told that Dessert would take a long time. In view of our experience and the hour, we gave up. I don't know if it was the only waitress's fault, but we wondered if she was also the cook if she would disappear for a while. There was no explanation or excuse for long waiting beyond the wounded remark.

It's a shame because I was really looking forward to trying the food, but without anyone to cook it, we had to go elsewhere.

I was disappointed that it took nearly 2 hours to receive my food, despite how delicious it was. I don't plan on coming back anytime soon. read more I was disappointed that it took nearly 2 hours to receive my food, despite how delicious it was. I don't plan on coming back anytime soon.
